Your Hair Deserves Better

Why Pick Nazarian Plastic Surgery for NeoGraft?

It’s easy to feel lost in the endless maze of shampoos, supplements, and quick-fix treatments that promise to stop or reverse hair loss. You've probably tried more than a few. Some may have helped a little, most probably didn’t. The NeoGraft® system takes a different approach. It doesn’t cover up the problem or rely on temporary fixes. It uses your own healthy hair follicles to rebuild thinning or balding areas in a way that looks and feels completely natural.

At Nazarian Plastic Surgery in Beverly Hills, Dr. Sheila Nazarian leads each NeoGraft procedure with the kind of attention to detail you only get from a plastic surgeon with extensive medical training and an aesthetic eye. She’s board-certified, a professor at USC, and even gained attention for her work on Netflix’s Skin Decision. Her clinic combines top-tier technology like the NeoGraft hair transplant system with thoughtful, patient-centered care. Whether you’re just starting to explore hair restoration or ready to dive into treatment, you’re in expert hands.


NeoGraft at a Glance

  • What it is: Automated follicular unit extraction system to help restore hair
  • How it works: Delicate tool removes individual hair follicles and implants new ones
  • Anesthesia: Just local, no general anesthesia
  • Recovery: Usually two to three days before you're back at work
  • Scarring: No strip scars, just tiny dot scars at the donor site

A Better Way to Bring Hair Back

What Is NeoGraft?

NeoGraft is a medical-grade hair restoration technology that uses follicular unit extraction to restore hair without removing a strip of scalp. It gently removes individual hair follicles and implants them into balding areas using suction and calibrated depth control. Because each transplanted hair is handled with care, the survival rate is high, and the result feels and looks completely natural.

NeoGraft can be used for more than just the scalp. It can also be used for restoring patchy facial hair, including areas of the beard, or to rebuild overplucked eyebrows with your own individual hair follicles. For the right patient, these more targeted uses can deliver subtle but confidence-boosting results.

Hair That Actually Stays

NeoGraft Benefits

Choosing NeoGraft means you're getting:

  • Minimally invasive procedure with little bleeding or discomfort
  • Healthy hair starts, fewer lost follicles because each is gently handled
  • Super-fast recovery time, most patients are back to normal activities in just a few days
  • Natural-looking results, with new hair growing in line with your own
  • No strip scar, so you can style your hair short if you want
  • Can be used to restore a patchy beard or overplucked eyebrows
  • Great for women suffering thinning hair, too—FUE isn’t just for men

This is more than just a hair transplant surgery. It's a chance to feel confident again, whether you’ve got a receding hairline or androgenic alopecia. More new follicles mean more real-looking hair.

Not Every Scalp is a Match

NeoGraft Candidates

NeoGraft works best if you:

  • Have male pattern or female pattern baldness with enough donor hair
  • Want to restore hair without leaving a big scar
  • Want new hair that grows naturally

It’s not a good match if you:

  • Don’t have sufficient donor hair follicles
  • Have medical issues that hurt healing
  • Are expecting dramatic hair thickening (you’ll need several procedures to fully restore dense hair)

If you have thinning areas or balding areas and want a natural hairline, this could be a fit.

Before the First Graft

Consultation and Preparation

Here’s what happens before and on the day of your hair transplant procedure:

  • We’ll talk about your hair goals, scalp health, and review your hair history
  • We check your donor site to confirm you’ve got enough healthy hair
  • We explain follicular unit transplantation, follicle extraction, and what the automated NeoGraft system does
  • You’ll stop certain supplements or blood thinners in the days before
  • If you'd like, we can add non-surgical procedures like PRP or microneedling to support new hair growth

Hairlines Built with Intention

The NeoGraft Procedure

Most sessions take four to eight hours, depending on how many grafts you need. We use local anesthesia throughout, so it’s pain-free.

  • Steps:
  1. NeoGraft extracts individual donor hair follicles, each genetically programmed to grow, using micro-punch suction
  2. Each follicular unit is carefully implanted in balding areas to match your natural hair pattern

It’s an automated process with a human touch, so your natural hair comes back in a way that looks natural (no “pluggy” hairlines).

In some cases, we may harvest follicles from areas beyond the scalp, like the beard or chest, depending on your needs and the quality of the hair. Beard hair tends to be more robust and can support specific hair restoration goals. Chest hair, while viable, is rarely a first choice due to its finer texture and potential for donor site scarring. Every case is customized to balance aesthetic goals with long-term comfort and outcome.

Growth Takes Time, Here’s What to Expect

Results, Recovery & Aftercare

  • Shedding stage: Hair might fall out around two to six weeks post-procedure, which is totally normal
  • New growth: Starts around three to four months; full, natural coverage takes 12–15 months
  • Aftercare:
  • Keep your scalp clean and avoid heavy exercise for about 10 days
  • Small scabs should fall off in under a week
  • Use gentle shampoo and don't put heat or sun on your head
  • Maintenance treatments like PRP or topical hair loss meds help boost the survival of transplanted hairs

We'll walk you through all of it: scar care, shampoo routines, and what you can or can't do.

How Much Does NeoGraft Cost?

With hair transplant surgery, the cost depends on how many donor hair follicles you need, where you're planting them, and the facility. The total depends on how many donor hair follicles are needed, the areas being treated, and whether you’re combining it with other services. Our Beverly Hills practice provides a personalized quote after your consultation, which includes everything from the use of the NeoGraft system to local anesthesia, follow-up visits, and comprehensive post-op care. We’ll walk you through what’s included so there are no surprises.
