Sapphire Hair Transplant

The Sapphire Technique is distinct from the classical FUE method in terms of the tool used for channel opening. In the FUE method, metal flat sheets are employed to open channels, resulting in channels with unsuitable shapes that may not be well-suited for the follicles. On the other hand, the Sapphire Technique utilizes a special pen with a head made of sapphire precious stone for channel opening.

Why I would choose the sapphire technique?

By incorporating sapphire crystals to open the micro-channels, the method becomes significantly more precise. The implementation of the "sapphire blade" enables highly precise incisions to be made in 3D, resulting in the creation of the smallest micro-channels. These channels usually close within 48 to 72 hours and promote faster healing, reducing the formation of scabs during the recovery process after hair transplantation. As a result, the result appears normal, and the density of transplanted hair is greater due to the increased number of channels available for follicle micro-transplantation.

Benefits of Sapphire FUE Technique

Improved control of the sapphire pen during channel opening results in more natural hair growth.

The use of sapphire, being a precious stone, contributes to reducing the risk of infection, which leads to a faster recovery process.

This technique reduces the risk of trauma, scalp tissue damage, and potential complications.

The grafted hair follicles adhere seamlessly to the 3D incisions, increasing the overall success of the transplant.

Among all hair transplant techniques, the hair transplanted with this method has the highest growth rate.

Our clinic offers the advanced FUE Sapphire hair transplant procedure, which involves the following steps:

Consultation: During the consultation, the surgeon will collaborate with the patient to determine the ideal new hairline based on the patient's preferences and the position of the forehead muscles.
Local Anesthesia: Before the procedure begins, the patient will receive local anesthesia in both the donor area and the receiving area. This ensures the patient remains awake during the procedure while not experiencing any discomfort.
Hair Extraction: For the hair extraction process, a micro-motor punch with a 0.7 mm diameter is used. This precise tool allows for the extraction of individual hair follicles without causing damage to either the hair or the skin. The extracted follicles are then preserved in a hypothermosol solution until the channels are opened.
Channels Opening: The channels in the receiving area are meticulously opened using a sapphire pen equipped with a precious sapphire stone head. This innovative technique facilitates the creation of 3-dimensional incisions, which is crucial for successful hair transplantation.
Hair Transplanting: Each extracted follicle is delicately inserted into a prepared incision in the receiving area. This step ensures proper placement and natural-looking results.

After the Sapphire hair transplant surgery, the patient will be provided with post-operative instructions to promote a smooth recovery:

The patient can return home immediately after the surgery without the need for additional care.
Following surgery, it is important not to touch the grafted areas during the first week, and wearing buttoned shirts is recommended to avoid disturbing the newly implanted follicles.
For the first five days after the procedure, sleeping on the back is advised to prevent harm to the transplanted hair.
To protect the scalp from direct sun exposure, extended periods of time outdoors should be avoided.
Engaging in strenuous exercises should be postponed for up to one month, and swimming should be avoided for two months to support proper healing and hair growth.
By adhering to these instructions, the patient can ensure the best possible outcome and successful hair growth after the FUE Sapphire hair transplant procedure.
