Sapphire Hair Transplant in Turkey

Adding a twist to the standard procedure, a Sapphire hair transplant uses blades of Sapphire rather than regular steel blades for a higher level of accuracy. Many opt for a Sapphire FUE in Turkey over the regular hair transplant Turkey method as the valuable gemstone used to create the tools offers extra precision, leading to a significant effect on the end results.

A Sapphire hair transplant is a minimally invasive procedure, creating permanent results without long recovery times. As the name suggests, FUE Sapphire treatment uses blades made of Sapphire to create incisions on the scalp for implantation. Sapphire stone has been chosen as it influences the shape of the blade, impacting the overall end result as the V-shaped pin offers more intricacy over the regular U-shaped pin of steel blades.

With this technique, the sharp edges of the blade result in smaller channels which eliminates the risk of irritating neighbour hair follicles and causing scarring. By avoiding the risk of irritating neighbour follicles, a Sapphire FUE hair transplant maintains the density of the hair to provide the best results for both men and women suffering with hair loss.

The duration of a Sapphire hair transplant in Turkey tends to be around 8 to 10 hours dependant on the number of grafts needed; this will be established by your surgeon prior to the treatment. The process is very intricate and requires a high level of detail but following the transplant, downtime is minimum and allows you to enjoy the beautiful surroundings of Istanbul during your stay.

A Sapphire hair transplant in Istanbul offers additional benefits in comparison to other hair transplant techniques, adding an extra level of precision for optimum results. Here are some of the benefits which identify with a Sapphire hair transplant in Turkey:

A Sapphire hair transplant in Turkey is not suitable for everyone, with certain factors determining candidacy. During your consultation for a FUE Sapphire hair transplant, a discussion will be had to establish a final decision by our surgeons and technicians. Generally, the following 3 factors decide on a candidate’s suitability:

Cause of Baldness

Hair loss conditions including androgenic alopecia, traction alopecia and alopecia marginalis make ideal candidates for a Sapphire hair transplant in Istanbul. Those who have suffered with hair loss in localised areas stemming from trauma including scarring and burns also tend to make suitable candidates.

Donor Hair Density

With the hair being extracted from donor sites, it is necessary to have sections of dense hair on the scalp. The process of a FUE Sapphire transplant takes hair from the donor site to the problem areas so a sufficient amount of hair is required.

Beginnings of hair thinning

A Sapphire FUE cool hair transplant is ideal for men and women who are just starting to lose hair whilst hair density is believed to still be high. This method of hair transplant is carried out without disturbing any hair follicles in the vicinity as opposed to standard FUE.

Following your Sapphire FUE in Turkey, downtime is minimal. It is normal to experience a slight swelling or soreness in the areas involved in the treatment but this is nothing to worry about and should fade over a few days. We provide each of our patients with a carefully designed aftercare kit which contains plenty of information on how to take care of your transplanted hairs to receive the best results from your Sapphire hair transplant in Istanbul. Your kit will include all of the products you will need, with shampoos, creams, antibacterial serums and pain-killers which are designed exclusively to be gentle on the scalp and shorten healing time.

Around 3 to 4 weeks following your Sapphire FUE hair transplant, you should expect to see your transplanted hair shred. This stage is normal and does not have any effect on your final Sapphire FUE cool hair transplant results, growing back within a couple of months. Seeing the optimal results of your Sapphire FUE in Turkey can take up to a year but generally you will notice significant changes within 4-6 months of the procedure.
