Is ARTAS iX better than ARTAS 9, 9x or other earlier versions of the ARTAS system?
The ARTAS iX is the newest iteration of the robot which incorporates many technologic advances vastly improving the speed, accuracy and precision over prior versions of the robot. Additionally, the ARTAS iX allows implantation of follicles, a first time technologic break through, allowing precision in the critical angle and depth of implantation resulting in a natural result not replicable with other ARTAS devices.
Is ARTAS better than HARRTS, Smartgraft or NeoGraft?
The ARTAS robotic process involves artificial intelligence in a physician operated independent system for the extraction and implantation of individual hair follicles. HARRTS, NeoGraft and Smartgraft use a handheld device that requires the physician to manually extract each individual hair follicle and subsequently implant each individual follicle by hand. The ARTAS iX allows implantation of follicles, a first time technologic break through, allowing precision in the critical angle and depth of implantation resulting in a natural result not replicable with any other device. The ARTAS procedure is faster than the HARRTS, NeoGraft and Smartgraft process and provides quick healing time. Also, unlike the manual options ARTAS is not subject to human error, making ARTAS a better choice.
