The Artas Effect
Patients will obtain a natural looking hair density in both donor & recipient areas.
The science behind Artas
The hair transplantation concept
By Hair transplantation works by extracting hair grafts from an area that isn't affected by hormones -usually the back of the head- called the donor area, the graft consists of 1-4 hair follicles with their surrounding tissue of stem cells that is responsible for hair regrowth. The extracted hair grafts are incisioned in the thining area called a recipient area. Within 6 months from the procedure, the hair regrows in the recipient area.
Several manual techniques can be used like FUE or FUSS (sometimes called FUT) for grafts collection, the procedure is user-dependant, long and the results can't be consistent or reproducible as the treated area needs accuracy by micrometer steps and the patient usually needs thousands of grafts.

ARTAS, the 6 steps of revolutionized hair transplantation concept
- The doctor uses the ARTAS Hair Studio® Technology to create a 3D simulation of the transplantation plan using actual patient photos and show it to the patient.
- The robot will map the follicular units in the trimmed donor & recipient areas.
- ARTAS identifies the patient's optimal hairs to use for transplant.
- Hair is selectively harvested with robotic precision to preserve the natural look of the patient's donor area.
- The patient's aesthetic design from ARTAS Hair Studio® is fed to the robot for site making under doctor control.
- The doctor then transplants the harvested hair into the patient's thinning areas. Permanent, dense & natural looking hair growth can be noticed within 6 months.
Features and benefits
Natural dense hair results
ARTAS provides superior results by improving the quality of each one of the 6 steps in the procedure by the robotic technologies.
Visualizes the expected results
ARTAS hair studio enables the user to use actual patient photos for designing & demonstrating different 3D simulations of expected results before the procedure. This motivates patients to buy-in by visualizing their future look.
Robotic hair analysis
ARTAS is superior to human in seeing & selecting best grafts, it analyzes each hair's angle, thickness & type 60 times per second through HD stereoscopic vision system that tracks each hair even if the patient moves.
Intelligent graft selection
ARTAS identifies top quality grafts for harvesting with a consideration of maintaining the natural look of the donor area after the procedure through its artificial intelligence algorithms.
Fast precise incisions
Site-making incisions are automated by robotic speed and precision with physician control on hair's depth & angle parameters.This result is creating up to 2,000 precise incisions per hour.
Preserves precious follicles
ARTAS aligns the needle's angle with the direction of hair follicles, this minimizes the severance of precious hair follicles during harvesting & preserves surrounding tissue of the graft by the Image-Guided Robotic Alignment.
Robots don't make mistakes
Minimal scaring & strong healthy graft harvesting is achieved by a smaller blunt needle that can't be used by humans, ARTAS works by a patented technique called the Blunt Dissection Technique.
Uniform grafts distribution
During the incision of harvested grafts, the robot avoids existing healthy hairs and ensures a uniform distribution by the artificial intelligence algorithms based on hair angle, thickness color & contrast.
Matching expected outcomes
The custom design previously created by ARTAS hair studio is fed to the robot, the robot executes incisions in a pattern that is highly similar to the initial design & hence achieving the patient's expectations.
Start to end consistency
Robots don't get fatigued & therefore the 1000th graph quality is similar to the 1st one in a micron level accuracy by the physician-assisted robotic technology.
