NeoGraft® Hair Restoration in NYC

A hair transplant is a minimally invasive procedure that restores natural hair growth in thinning or balding areas by relocating healthy hair follicles from donor sites (typically the back of the head) to areas with loss. At Dr. Alexes Hazen’s Fifth Avenue practice in New York City, she uses advanced techniques like Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) with NeoGraft® technology for precise, scar-free results and long-term growth.

NeoGraft® is a cutting-edge, automated FUE hair restoration system that harvests individual hair follicles with pneumatic pressure - no scalpels or stitches required. The follicles are then meticulously implanted into thinning areas, producing a natural-looking, permanent hairline. Dr. Hazen combines NeoGraft® with longevity-based scalp therapies to support stronger, healthier regrowth.

Ideal candidates include both men and women experiencing: • Genetic or age-related hair thinning • Receding hairlines • Bald patches or thinning crowns • Hair loss after surgery or trauma • Overplucked eyebrows or beard thinning A consultation with Dr. Hazen will determine whether a hair transplant - or another treatment such as PRP, exosomes, or topical therapy - is best for you.

Dr. Hazen’s approach integrates aesthetic artistry, regenerative medicine, and longevity care. She designs each transplant to match your natural growth pattern, density, and facial structure - ensuring undetectable, lifelong results. Her holistic programs also include nutritional, hormonal, and cellular optimization to improve scalp health and sustain growth.

No. The procedure is performed under local anesthesia, and most patients describe it as painless with minimal discomfort. You can relax, listen to music, or even nap during treatment.

The procedure typically takes 4–8 hours, depending on the number of grafts needed. Because Dr. Hazen and her team prioritize precision and artistry, each session is designed to maximize density and natural direction of hair growth.

Early growth begins around 3-4 months, with noticeable improvements by 6 months. Full, permanent results are typically visible after 9–12 months, as the transplanted follicles enter their natural growth cycle.

Recovery is quick and comfortable. You may experience mild redness or swelling for a few days, and most patients return to work within 1–3 days. Dr. Hazen provides detailed aftercare instructions to ensure optimal healing and graft survival.
