Regular Member kristijan Posted June 21, 2012 Regular Member Share Posted June 21, 2012 June 2012 Premier hair transplant surgeon Herbert S. Feinberg, MD, today announced the implementation of the ARTAS® System of Restoration Robotics, Inc. in his Englewood-based practice. As the first and only FDA cleared, physician controlled, computer-assisted technology for harvesting follicular units directly from the scalp, the ARTAS System provides new and exciting possibilities for both physicians and patients. By utilizing sophisticated digital mapping and precision robotics, the system delivers beautiful, natural-looking results with minimal invasiveness. "In any medical field, it's important to stay on top of industry developments and take advantage of new technologies," commented Dr. Feinberg. "The ARTAS System allows me to do just that for the hair transplant industry. By utilizing it within my practice, I can provide my patients improved results in a safe, effective and comfortable manner." "We're thrilled to see Dr. Feinberg bring the ARTAS System into his practice," said Jim McCollum, President & CEO of Restoration Robotics. "Our mission is to truly revolutionize the way contemporary hair transplantation is performed. When globally respected surgeons such as Dr. Feinberg adopt our technology, that mission is realized." Hair Loss by the Numbers According to the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery (ISHRS), at least 35 million men in the United States are affected by male pattern baldness or androgenetic alopecia. By age 50, approximately 50% of men will experience some degree of appreciable hair loss. Hair transplantation moves healthy, functioning follicles to the areas of the patient's scalp most impacted by baldness for more dramatic results. New hair continues to grow over the course of a full year, resulting in a gradual change in the patient's appearance over time. Hair transplantation is the only permanent solution for hair loss.
