Precision tools for hair transplant surgery
Hairmes delivers reliable, precise measurements for follicle density and transplant area planning — at a reasonable price.
Everything you need for precise planning
Load high-quality images into Hairmes to perform follicle counting and transplant area measurement with professional accuracy.
Follicle density
Count follicular units and measure hair density on the donor area with unmatched precision.
Transplant area
Measure recipient surface area, assign graft densities and export surgical planning data to Excel.
Micro camera support
Compatible with Proscope and Folliscope. Calibrate once with a ruler and reuse your settings.
Mac & PC licence
Windows and Mac OS X compatible. Annual licence at 240 EUR, with PayPal secure payment.

Limitations of current systems
- The measured surface is often too small and not sufficiently precise.
- Follicular units on the periphery of the area create ambiguity about whether to count them.
How Hairmes overcomes this
- Trace a broad irregular zone, passing precisely at an equal distance between follicles.
- After cutting hair to 1 mm (not completely shaved), obtain a very precise image of the donor area.
Trace the contour of the zone
Draw an irregular boundary around the measurement area, keeping an equal distance between peripheral follicles.
Display the counter toolbox and diagnostic frame
Open the counting toolbox and the follicle diagnostic panel to start your analysis.
Identify follicles one by one
Mark each follicular unit individually. The software calculates FU density, hair density, and composition automatically.
Hairmes allows you to measure the surface of transplant areas. Once you have drawn the contour of each area, you can assign a graft density and precisely determine how many grafts are needed for surgery.
Trace the contour of each area
Draw precise polygonal contours around each transplant zone directly on the patient image.
Apply a graft density to each area
Assign the desired graft density per cm² to each defined zone. The software computes the total graft count.
Export measurements to Excel
Generate a complete summary report with surface measurements and graft counts, ready for export to a spreadsheet.
If you are equipped with a micro camera such as Proscope or Folliscope, you can use its images directly in Hairmes. Simply calibrate once using a millimetre-graduated ruler and save your settings for future sessions.
Calibrate with a ruler
Place a millimetre-graduated ruler in the field of view and use it to set the scale calibration in Hairmes.
Save and reuse your calibration
Once saved, your calibration profile can be applied to any subsequent image from the same camera and zoom setting.
Hairmes is a software applied to the hair transplantation field, providing surface area measurement and follicle density measurement tools.
Derived from the GeoTool software — developed by Alexandre Duvallet, Surveying Engineer ESTP IG93.

Doctor Jean Devroye had the original idea to transform the GeoTool software in order to adapt it to the field of hair transplantation.
GeoTool was initially created to measure surface areas on images such as aerial photographs or scanned maps.
The very first version of Hairmes was presented in Montreal in 2008, by Doctor Jean Devroye during the ISHRS 16th Annual Meeting.
Hair Transplantation — Fifth edition
Hairmes is presented in chapter 4C:
- Measurement of hair density and follicular unit density in the donor area
- Measurement of the strip surface to determine the number of grafts collected
- Measurement of the area to be grafted
- Precise measurement of incision density and calculation of hair densities placed per unit of area
