SmartGraft® Hair Transplants & Restoration
Dr. Gladstone, the former Director of Dermatologic Surgery at Stanford University has performed hair transplants since 1999. He has adopted the Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) as his method of choice because of several advantages over the strip technique as discussed below. Dr. Gladstone and his team perform SmartGraft® for Hair Restoration because it is the latest technology and has less downtime. This procedure is performed with local anesthesia and oral sedation. Dr. Gladstone and his team make sure that you will be comfortable and relaxed during the procedure.

The Strip Method
“In quality-of-life studies, men and women experiencing hair loss reported a higher incidence of behavior that interfered with their daily lives — including a significant loss of self-esteem, being introverted, feeling less attractive and tense feelings in public places.” From the American Academy of Dermatology” 2013
- SmartGraft® Is A Life Changing Technology. It Is Automated Follicular Unit Extraction.
- The SmartGraft® System gently treats the hair follicle decreasing the rate of transection, and then stores it in a compartment that automatically keeps the grafts moist and increases survival of the grafts until they are ready for implantation.

The significant advantage of the FUE procedure is the lack of a linear scar. The tiny 1.0 mm harvest sites close 50% in size within 24 hours and can be completely undetectable within a weeks’ time, depending on the quality of hair in the donor area. Eventually, when the surrounding hair reaches a certain length (approximately 8mm), the area is completely natural looking.
