in San Jose & Palo Alto, CA
For many men and women experiencing hair loss, it can feel like a losing scenario. Many try over-the-counter methods, creams, oils, or devices with little results to show. But considering a traditional hair transplant can sound extreme and painful. Good News! With NeoGraft in Palo Alto & San Jose, patients can see real hair regrowth with a precise transplant method that doesn't require extensive incisions or excessive downtime.
Commitment to our patients is key, and we are thrilled to offer a hair restoration solution that is versatile and effective. Your San Jose or Palo Alto NeoGraft treatment will be completely customized and tailored to your exact needs to ensure you see the great results you’ve been looking for. Led by a team of highly educated and board-certified plastic surgeons, we are passionate about aesthetic excellence and stellar patient care at Illuminate.
NeoGraft is an advanced, modern, minimally invasive hair restoration technique that uses Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) technology to achieve natural-looking hair regrowth. NeoGraft is made with automated technology to harvest individual hair follicles from the donor area, typically the back of the scalp, and transplant them to thinning or balding areas. This precise approach ensures minimal scarring, faster recovery, and more consistent results.
Traditional manual FUE relies on a surgeon’s precision to extract hair follicles one by one, which can be tedious and painful and require long recovery times. NeoGraft’s automated system enhances efficiency, reduces procedure time, and improves graft survival rates. In addition, NeoGraft minimizes trauma to the scalp, leading to a quicker recovery and less discomfort for a natural, superior final result.
NeoGraft brings the confidence and improved quality of life that come with fuller, thicker hair through a minimally invasive, low-downtime alternative. Enjoy incredible benefits like:
NeoGraft is an outstanding option for both men and women experiencing hair loss due to genetics, aging, or other factors. Ideal candidates have sufficient donor hair on the back or sides of the scalp to support the transplant and are seeking a minimally invasive solution to restore hair density.
As a patient-centered practice, we are committed to guiding every individual through their procedure with care, keeping them informed, and providing treatment plans that are wholly tailored to them and their needs. At your private consultation, our team will discuss your aesthetic goals and health history with you, and we will examine your scalp to determine eligibility. Your treatment plan will include preparation instructions, which can include adjusting medications, avoiding at-home hair loss treatments, and limiting alcohol.
The procedure begins with the application of local anesthesia to numb both the donor and recipient areas, ensuring a comfortable experience. Using the automated system, individual hair follicles are carefully extracted from the donor site and then implanted into areas with thinning or baldness. Depending on the number of grafts required, the entire process can take four to eight hours, and we work to ensure that patients are comfortable and well taken care of throughout.
Since no incisions or stitches are needed, NeoGraft offers a quicker recovery time and minimal discomfort. Initial results from NeoGraft become noticeable within three to four months as transplanted hair begins to grow, with full, natural-looking results developing over 9 to 12 months. Patients can typically return to normal activities within a few days, but strenuous exercise and heavy lifting should be avoided for at least a week.

Led by plastic surgeons Dr. David Boudreault and Dr. Brittany Leader, patients can expect outstanding aesthetic results and premier patient care at Illuminate.

Patients may experience some mild discomfort after this procedure but there is little to no pain, especially when compared to a traditional hair transplant.
This modern hair transplant option is safe and comes with fewer risks than older versions of hair transplantation.
An FUE hair transplant like NeoGraft is considered a permanent procedure since the healthy follicles that are transferred will continue to grow without maintenance. Keep in mind that eventually, due to the natural aging process, the quality of all hair follicles may inevitably diminish.
While some results may be visible soon after the transplant, the final results with NeoGraft could take up to a year as the transplanted follicles undergo different stages of growth.
The cost of NeoGraft varies depending on the scope of treatment and the specific needs of the patient.
