Medicamat NeoGraft SAFER

Medicamat NeoGraft SAFER is a pioneering, semi-automated medical workstation designed for hair transplant restoration. Developed originally by the French manufacturer Medicamat, “S.A.F.E.R.” stands for Suction Assisted Follicular Extraction and Re-implantation.

It was one of the very first devices to successfully introduce pneumatically-driven automation to the Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) hair transplant method. Today, the evolved NeoGraft brand line is managed globally by Venus Concept.

As a hair restoration system, Medicamat NeoGraft SAFER (from Venus Concept) automates the Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) method using a two-stage pneumatic process. Instead of manually cutting and pulling hair follicles with forceps, it uses precise air pressure and vacuum suction to harvest and implant hair.

How the Medicamat NeoGraft SAFER System Works

Traditional manual FUE requires a surgeon to physically punch out and pull hair follicles with tweezers, which is exhausting and risks damaging the hair bulb. The SAFER system automates this into two core pneumatic phases:

1. Suction-Assisted Harvesting: The physician places a specialized handpiece over a healthy hair follicle at the back of the head (the donor area). A rotating micro-punch gently separates the tissue while a precise, low-pressure vacuum suction lifts the follicle out cleanly without twisting or pulling.
2. Pneumatic Implantation: The gathered follicles are organized and loaded into an implanting handpiece. Using controlled air pressure (piston-driven push), the machine standardizes the recipient sites and effortlessly slides the follicles into the balding areas without manual handling.

Key Benefits of the Medicamat NeoGraft SAFER Technology

• No Linear Scarring: Unlike traditional “strip” surgeries (FUT) that cut out a large piece of the scalp, Medicamat NeoGraft SAFER extracts tiny individual dots. This leaves no linear scar, allowing patients to wear their hair very short afterward.
• Higher Graft Survival Rate: The automated vacuum prevents “bulb trauma” (bruising or crushing the root of the hair). Because the follicles are never squeezed with forceps, they remain healthier and have a much higher survival rate once transplanted.
• Faster Procedure Times: Manual FUE can take multiple days for massive graft counts. The pneumatic speed of the Medicamat NeoGraft SAFER allows doctors to transplant thousands of hairs in a single 4-to-10 hour session.
• Quicker Patient Recovery: Because the entry points are microscopic and do not require scalpels, stitches, or staples, patients experience very little downtime and usually return to daily routines in just a few days.
