How Does AuraGraft Work?
Developed by Auragenics, AuraGraft employs advanced Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) hair transplant technology to help you achieve a fuller head of hair. The AuraGraft system meticulously extracts individual hair follicles from the back of your head using a minimally invasive technique and transplants them to areas experiencing hair loss. This method ensures high-quality grafts and natural-looking results.
In the past, the FUE hair transplant method was a time-consuming process requiring multiple clinic visits. Thanks to the AuraGraft technology, thousands of follicles can be harvested and implanted in a single session. AuraGraft treatments have demonstrated significant improvements in hair density and overall appearance for both men and women within a few months post-procedure.

What To Expect with Your AuraGraft Treatment
Consultation
First, Andrea Thayer, a triple board-certified nurse practitioner with extensive experience in treating hair loss, will assess the amount of hair loss and hair density that can be transplanted.
FUE is a highly customizable procedure, and each patient is unique. Our assessment will be based on multiple factors including your gender, age, available hair in the donor area and coverage desired.
We’ll use this assessment to design a treatment plan custom-built for you, including a calculation of how many grafts you’ll require for optimal results.
Procedure
On the day of the procedure, local anesthesia and prescription medication to help you relax will be administered to ensure your comfort. Utilizing the AuraGraft device, individual follicular grafts from the donor area–an area of higher hair density, usually the back of the head–will be meticulously extracted and implanted into the balding areas. This precise process may take several hours and leaves no visible scars.
Downtime and results
Recovery after an AuraGraft procedure is minimal. The donor sites heal after 2–3 days and patients tend to take minimal time off work. Results gradually become apparent as the transplanted hair grows naturally, typically becoming noticeable within a few months. Because each hair follicle is individually implanted, the results are incredibly natural-looking.
How Much Does AuraGraft Cost?
A few factors influence the cost of your AuraGraft procedure. They include:
Geographic Location: Costs can vary depending on the clinic's location.
Number of Grafts Required: More extensive hair loss may necessitate more grafts, affecting the overall cost.
Number of Sessions Required: Some patients may require multiple sessions to achieve optimal results.
In the US, the average cost of AuraGraft treatment typically ranges from $4,000 to $10,000, depending on the aforementioned factors.
At Exclusive Med Aesthetics & Hair Restoration, your transplant will include complementary PRF and/or exosome scalp injections before and after your procedure. These injections serve to boost your results and protect your investment.
Am I a Good Candidate for AuraGraft?
AuraGraft is suitable for both men and women experiencing hair loss due to various factors, including aging, genetics or medical conditions. Good candidates are typically people dealing with:
Bald spots
Thinning hair
Receding hairline
Traction or chemical alopecia
However, the procedure does have several contraindications, including severe scalp infections, certain autoimmune conditions, and uncontrolled chronic diseases.
What Are the Side Effects of AuraGraft?
AuraGraft has been extensively studied and is considered a safe and effective treatment for hair restoration. Side effects are generally temporary and include:
Mild swelling
Redness at the treatment site
Temporary discomfort
Less common, but possible side effects include infection and folliculitis. Your team at Exclusive Med Aesthetics & Hair Restoration will provide you with a post-procedure kit to help you care for your new transplanted hairs and reduce the risk of complications.
The AuraGraft Difference
Traditional hair transplants like FUT (AKA the strip method) involve the use of a scalpel, require stitches and may leave a visible linear scar on the back of the head. In contrast, FUE hair restoration offers a scar-free solution with a quicker recovery time. But AuraGraft goes even further than the competition. Here’s what sets it apart:
Precision and Minimal Discomfort
AuraGraft utilizes an FDA-approved automated device for harvesting and implanting hair follicles. This automation minimizes human error for more precise and consistent procedure. It also boasts a minimally invasive design, reducing damage to the scalp and hair follicles compared to other techniques. This translates to a shorter procedure time, less scarring and a faster healing process for you.
Pneumatic Technology
Gentle suction carefully removes individual follicles, minimizing trauma to surrounding tissue. This method improves hair follicle survival rates and reduces scarring.
Faster Recovery and Natural-Looking Hair Growth
Thanks to its minimally invasive nature and ergonomic design, AuraGraft allows for faster and more accurate harvesting of hair follicles. This translates to a shorter procedure time and a quicker recovery for you. Additionally, the precise extraction technique promotes a natural growth pattern at the implanted sites, giving you a natural-looking head of hair.

FAQs
-
The duration of an AuraGraft hair transplant can vary depending on the extent of the area being treated. Typically, the procedure can take anywhere from 4 to 8 hours. This time includes the preparation, the transplantation itself, and post-procedure care.
-
Patients may experience minimal discomfort during an AuraGraft hair transplant. Local anesthesia is used to numb the treatment areas and Rx medication will be given to help you relax, making the procedure relatively pain-free. Post-procedure, any discomfort can usually be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers.
-
While initial hair growth can be noticed as early as 3 to 4 months after the procedure, the full results of an AuraGraft hair transplant are typically visible after 9 to 12 months. This timeline allows for the transplanted follicles to fully establish and produce new hair growth.
-
The results of an AuraGraft hair transplant are generally permanent. The transplanted hair follicles are taken from areas that are resistant to the hormone responsible for hair loss, meaning the new hair growth should be permanent.
However, it's important to note that natural aging and hormonal changes can affect the longevity of the results. Regular follow-up visits with your hair restoration specialist at Exclusive Med Aesthetics & Hair Restoration can help manage expectations and improve your outcomes with our state of the art medical management techniques and procedures.
To make your AuraGraft results last as long as possible, we recommend you maintain a healthy lifestyle, adhere to your provider's post-treatment care instructions, and consider additional maintenance treatments if recommended.
