The invention relates to an apparatus for implanting hair grafts wherein the apparatus comprises a tubular body with a cutting edge, hereinafter called a cannula, an ejector which is arranged to act jointly with the cannula and reception devices for receiving a container for storing hair grafts, where the container comprises a number of container compartments and each container compartment contains a graft. The apparatus is characterized in that it comprises fixing and transport devices for the cannula, the ejector and the container, together with programmable control means, where the control means receive a starting signal and control the said devices, thus enabling them to: a) move the container to a position where a filled container compartment is arranged relative to the ejector and the cannula, b) move the ejector forwards in order to expel a graft from the container compartment into the cannula, c) move the ejector and the cannula forwards with a movement relative to each other in order to push the graft towards the cannula's cutting edge, d) stop the cannula in a front position and hold it still while the ejector continues to expel the graft, e) stop the cannula in a front position and hold it still while the cannula is retracted, f) move the ejector and the cannula backwards until their respective rear positions have been reached.
