The ARTAS Procedure

Located Chicago, Illinois, the Yates Hair Science Group allows patients to choose among multiple surgical and non-surgical hair restoration options. One of the state-of-the-art surgical procedures performed by the Yates Hair Science Group is the robotics-driven ARTAS hair restoration procedure.

A minimally invasive solution to address hair loss, ARTAS uses digital imaging and robotic technology to harvest healthy grafts at the back of the head, where hair density is typically high, for transplantation to other areas of the scalp that are thinning. The ARTAS system is extremely fast, monitoring and updating parameters for each follicular unit at a rate of 60 times per second. By contrast, surgeons who perform similar procedures by eye can only process between 10 and 12 separate images per second. Other advantages of the ARTAS system include enhanced precision and a software program that employs complex algorithms that detect characteristics such as hair thickness and angle to ensure quality results.
