    TLDR Advanced FUE systems have evolved to improve precision and efficiency in hair transplantation.
    The document reviews the evolution of advanced follicular unit excision (FUE) systems in hair transplantation, highlighting the transition from manual to motorized and robotic devices that enhance precision and efficiency. It discusses various FUE devices, such as the Cole Isolation Technique and ARTAS robotic system, noting their unique features and limitations. Key advancements include improved graft preservation and reduced follicular damage through motorized movements like rotation and oscillation. The review emphasizes the importance of selecting the right device based on patient-specific hair and skin characteristics to achieve optimal outcomes, with considerations for extraction speed, transection rates, and cost-effectiveness.
