Sapphire FUE Hair Transplant

Hair transplantation is a highly significant and beneficial procedure for those who wish to express themselves through their style but are dissatisfied with their reflection due to hair loss. FUE hair transplantation is one of the major treatments for significant hair loss, and Sapphire FUE is an innovative variation of this procedure.

What is Sapphire FUE Hair Transplantation? 

Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) is a technique used for hair transplantation, where individual hair follicles are extracted and implanted into balding areas. The number of grafts required and the specific areas of the scalp where the transplantation is needed vary from person to person.

Sapphire FUE hair transplantation, a type of FUE, refers to a specialized technique that uses tools with sapphire blades for the procedure. These sapphire-tipped tools offer several advantages.

Advantages of Sapphire FUE Blades:

• Natural appearance

• Rapid application and recovery process

• Minimal scarring

The sapphire crystal blades are finer and sharper, aiding in the precise and controlled extraction and implantation of follicles during the hair restoration and transplantation procedure. The sharp and smooth incisions created by sapphire blades contribute to a more natural and aesthetically pleasing hairline. Because sapphire blades are thin and sharp, they cause less tissue damage and physical trauma during follicle extraction, offering a quicker and more comfortable recovery.

How is Sapphire FUE Hair Transplantation Performed? 

The Sapphire FUE transplantation process consists of three phases: preparation, operation, and post-operation. To achieve successful results, it is crucial to work with a reputable hair clinic and an experienced hair transplant specialist. For detailed information, you can contact Mabel Hair Clinic, a leading hair transplant clinic in Turkey.

Pre-Sapphire FUE Procedure 

The first stage of Sapphire FUE is preoperative preparation. This involves a consultation, examination, and planning with the patient. Before the hair loss treatment, it is essential for the patient to adhere to the physician's instructions regarding:

• Medication usage

• Smoking and alcohol consumption

• Hair care routines

• Nutrition habits

Before the procedure, the hairline is defined, and the health of the patient's hair follicles is evaluated. The precise number of grafts to be transplanted is determined. Before the FUE hair transplant, the target area is thoroughly cleaned, and local anesthesia is applied.

Sapphire FUE Surgery 

Once the patient is prepared for surgery, hair follicles are carefully extracted and then implanted into the balding area. Each follicle is handled individually with great care to prevent damage. The hair specialist must accurately determine the angle, direction, and position of the transplanted hair. The precision in implantation is crucial for achieving natural-looking and effective results. The procedure is conducted under local anesthesia, ensuring minor pain for the patient.

Who is Suitable for Sapphire FUE? 

Sapphire FUE is a suitable option for both men and women experiencing hair loss. This technique can benefit individuals with male or female pattern hair loss. The specific details of the treatment are determined during the consultation and examination.

Post-Sapphire FUE Procedure 

After Sapphire FUE, it is essential for the patient to follow the doctor's instructions. Adhering to these guidelines is crucial for a speedy recovery and achieving natural results.

First Hours: 

After the hair transplantation procedure, applying a cold compress can help prevent swelling and edema. It's important to take the prescribed pain relievers and antibiotics regularly as instructed by the doctor. Some bleeding, swelling, pain, and bruising are normal and should be expected.

First and Second Day:

Swelling, redness, and minor bleeding may persist. To manage bleeding, gentle pressure can be applied to the forehead using a clean cloth. It’s important to follow the sleeping positions recommended by the doctor. Swelling may begin to subside by the second day, while redness will continue, and scabbing may start to form.

Third Day: 

Swelling and redness in the scalp gradually decrease, while scabbing continues. However, the healing process is well underway

First Week: 

The scabs in the transplanted areas gradually begin to fall off, which may be accompanied by mild itching and sensitivity. The first hair wash is performed by a specialist at the hospital.

First Month: 

The new hair growth process begins in the transplanted areas. While the hair may not have appeared yet, the follicles continue to settle and take root. The patient should use the hair care products prescribed by the doctor and avoid exposure to sunlight.

First Six Months:

The growth process of the new hair continues, and the results become increasingly noticeable. Over time, the density and quality of the hair improve. Regular check-ups should be conducted as advised by the doctor, and additional treatments should be applied if necessary.

During the recovery process, shock loss may occur, where the transplanted hair falls out rapidly. This is completely natural, and the hair will regrow, this time permanently.

First Year: 

Hair transplantation results become more evident, and the final outcome is achieved. By the end of the year, the hair has fully grown and reached the desired density. Regular hair care and periodic check-ups are essential to maintaining the health and appearance of the transplanted hair.

Difference Between Sapphire FUE and Other Hair Transplant Methods 

Sapphire FUE offers several differences compared to other techniques. The most common comparisons are between Classical FUE, DHI, and Sapphire FUE.

Sapphire FUE vs. FUE:

• In Sapphire FUE, the tools used for hair transplantation have sapphire crystal tips, whereas, in FUE, metal or steel tips are typically used.

• The cutting edges of tools made from sapphire crystal are finer and sharper, allowing for more precise incisions. This contributes to a more natural and aesthetically pleasing hairline.

• The fine tips used in Sapphire FUE cause less tissue trauma, which can accelerate the healing process.

• After Sapphire FUE, symptoms like scabbing and redness may be less pronounced.

Sapphire FUE vs. DHI:

Sapphire FUE involves a manual process for extracting and implanting follicular units, while DHI utilizes a specialized device, the DHI Choi Pen, for both extraction and implantation.

Safir FUE is ideal for achieving even and natural results in larger areas, whereas DHI excels in smaller areas with a faster healing process. Safir FUE is generally more advantageous for larger coverage. It's important to note that each method has its own advantages, and the ideal technique for the patient will be determined by the physician.
