Robotic FUE procedure or "traditional" FUE surgery?

Hello guys,

This is my last video in which I spoke about the current tendency of robotic surgeries become fashionable, I gave my point of view as well as of other physicians, what do you guys think about it?, are you willing to have a surgery with a robot or do you prefer a human surgeon to perform the entire procedure?

Nice video Escar. I think it comes down more to who is performing the surgery with whatever equipment they have at their disposal. A lot of robotic and motorised machines were sold to non-hair transplant clinics.

Hi Bm, yes, correct, but regarding the robot its clear that the reputable and skilled doctors dont use one because are useless for them, so what they use actually can tell us something about their quality and skills.

Cheers

I know quite a few doctors who purchased certain robotic equipment and have since sold them. Any piece of equipment is only as good as the person using it unless it is 100% robotic with no human involvement, except switching it on and off.

Hi BM, thank you for your input, in fact a good doctor can turn himself average or below avergae when uses certain equipment such this one since a good doctor could use a punch from 0.75mm while the robot uses a much bigger one, or to spread the extractions much more than the robot, or to change the punch depending on the fu., etc..etc..

See many disadvantages and no benefit for the doctor, even less for the patient.

Hasn’t that guy who is the host of Tenable had a Ht with a robot. Must say his results are shocking.
