Introduction
Sapphire Hair Transplant has become one of the most advanced hair restoration techniques available today. By using specially designed sapphire blades instead of traditional steel blades, surgeons can create more precise incisions, leading to improved graft placement, faster healing, and natural-looking results.
Turkey has become one of the leading destinations for Sapphire FUE hair transplantation due to its experienced surgeons and modern medical facilities.
What Is Sapphire Hair Transplant?
Sapphire Hair Transplant is a modified version of the FUE technique. The main difference is the use of sapphire-tipped blades to create recipient channels before implanting the extracted hair follicles.
These ultra-sharp blades allow for smaller and more accurate incisions, minimizing tissue trauma and promoting faster recovery.
How Is the Procedure Performed?
The procedure typically includes:
- Consultation and scalp analysis
- Hairline design
- Local anesthesia
- Extraction of healthy follicular units
- Creation of recipient channels using sapphire blades
- Implantation of hair grafts
- Post-operative care instructions
The procedure generally takes between six and eight hours depending on the number of grafts.
