Time to turn your six-head back into the forehead you had in your youth! With hair transplant therapies on the rise, doctors are struggling to keep up with the demand for fuller bushels of hair. Instead of making men wait as their hairlines continue to creep back on them, they’re implementing robots to help them with the tedious task. The procedure itself isn’t difficult—removing hair from other parts of the body like arms or legs (or butt, if that’s where you carry excessive fur)—but it is time consuming and finicky. That’s where Restoration Robotics comes in.

Hopefully the surgery gets FDA approval soon and costs will go down. There are just way too many combovers cruising around this world; it would be in everyone’s best interest to get this technology optimized ASAP!

“Restoration Robotics, Inc. (Mountain View, CA) is a company using image-guided robotic technology to perform hair restoration by emulating the FUE technique. The robotic technology is in development. Currently, it is not approved by the FDA and the technology is not for sale”, said a company spokesperson when I contacted them. I also found this press release about Restoration Robotics from 2003, here. I can imagine the scene of a movie with robots doing hair transplants, starring 3-CPO from Star Wars. I am sure that we will be hearing more about robotic-assisted hair transplants in the future and I doubt that it will be as frightening as I just made it sound. This is an exciting conceptual solution to the Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) quality problem. (baldingblog)
