You mean "grafts".
Are the fees different ? More, less than by hand ? I'd like to hear about the results.

Fitnessman you wrote “ I think it’s cheaper”

How long have you been researching ht in particular fue? Do you know the difference between the hand punch, mechanized devices and robotic systems? Are you familiar with the different size punches used for this procedure? Just trying to get an idea of how much research you have performed.

Good luck with the outcome and looking forward to see your pictures.

maybe cheaper was the wrong word...lets try ... not as expensive as hand punch

i think from what i read before in this thread is the robot is 1mm and the other hand devices are .8mm - do you think from 10 feet away you can tell well that person was done by the robot, etc? i am just asking .. i have no idea myself.

honestly, from what i gather most people who are not balding dont even look at or pay attention to another guys hair. i know i didnt when i was NOT balding. but not that I am...thats the first thing i look at is a guys hair .. balding or not balding...daym I wish I had his hairline line...i want a mohawk too and be cool...sign me up for spikey hair.

Wow ! They gave you an IV ? Why?
I hope all goes well and you'll be happy with the results.

Just curious, how does this work? Does the robot make the punches and put the grafts in or what?

You haven't said if it's cheaper than traditional (by hand) grafts.
