HOW DOES IT WORK?
Targeting Follicular Units: The medical staff sees a magnified stereo-view of the scalp. The software digitizes this view. Complex imaging algorithms compute angles, orientation, location of follicular units on the scalp as well as follicular unit type (1,2,3) – this is the basis for accurate targeting. Additionally, stereoscopic video images guide the movement of the needle mechanism and robotic arm. This function is known as visual serving.
Two punches, an inner and outer, arranged concentrically: The inner punch is sharp and has a 1mm internal diameter castellated edge that makes a shallow incision in the skin of 1-3mm. The outer punch is blunt, with an internal diameter of 1.37mm. The Outer punch enters the scalp through the incision made by the inner punch. It spins or oscillates into the scalp while bluntly dissecting 7-8mm into the skin around the follicle. Donor area hair is cropped to 1mm length. Lidocaine is injected into the skin of the scalp to numb the area. Tension is applied to scalp using a specially designed retractor. Patient is in the semi-prone position in our specialized chair. Camera system scans the patient’s scalp and identifies groups of 1-3 hairs (follicular units, FUs). System automatically targets FUs for harvesting based on medical staff input. The process is semi-automated: it can automatically target 5, 10, 15, or more follicular units sequentially; additionally, the system periodically prompts the medical staff user for input.
