The prospect of getting hair plugs to combat male pattern baldness made most men uneasy for years. Out of that uneasiness, sprung two alternative measures to seed and grow hair; follicular unit transplantation (FUT) and follicular unit extraction (FUE).

The next step in those regenerative procedures is the ARTAS System. A machine (pictured above), ARTAS is an image guided robotic system that is faster than performed manually by a doctor, less painful and supposedly even produces higher success rates.

So if you’re considering a regenerative hair technique, would you feel more or less comfortable entertaining the idea of a robot doing the work on your scalp?
