The Sapphire Hair Transplant Method

We've put together a helpful guide that covers what you need to know about getting a hair transplant in Turkey. The information details some of the differences between Sapphire FUE and DHI hair transplants, helping you make the most informed decision about your hair restoration journey.

FUE Sapphire Treatment: An Advanced Hair Transplant Method

The Sapphire FUE offers an advanced hair transplant method with a high success rate, highly popular with men and women looking to address thinning hair or hair loss. Known for its minimally invasive technique and pain-free reputation, this advanced hair loss solution is one of the best hair transplants you can have. 

What is FUE Sapphire Treatment? 

FUE stands for follicular unit extraction, a method where individual hair follicles are extracted and transplanted. The ‘Sapphire’ component refers to the sapphire gemstone blades used in the procedure. These blades create precise, micro incisions in the scalp, minimising scabbing and promoting quicker healing.

Why Choose FUE Sapphire?

• Minimally Invasive: The technique involves minimal surgical intervention, reducing recovery time.
• Low Pain: Thanks to local anaesthesia, the procedure is virtually painless.
• Precision: Sapphire blades ensure the smallest possible incisions, enhancing the natural appearance and reducing scabbing.

Who Can Benefit from FUE Sapphire? Este Medical Group offers Sapphire hair transplants in Istanbul, performed by highly qualified and experienced surgeons. This treatment is suitable for:

• Hereditary or family hair loss in both men and women
• Hair loss due to scarring or injury 
• Mechanical, circular, and diffuse hair loss

Este Medical Group offers free hair loss consultations, the very best time to diagnose your type of hair loss and discuss the best hair grafting procedure to restore hair in your case.

‍Sapphire FUE vs DHI 

‍When considering your hair transplant options, it's essential to research and review the available methods. Two highly sought-after techniques are Sapphire FUE and DHI (Direct Hair Implantation). Both are excellent choices, but depending on your type of hair loss, the extent of hair loss, and your grooming goals and expectations, one method may be more suitable for you than the other. It's all about selecting the right hair transplant method for your needs!

Sapphire FUE Hair Transplant Benefits

• ‍High Density
  ‍Sapphire FUE ensures a greater number of micro channels created in the scalp, allowing for more hair to be transplanted. 
• ‍Smaller Surgical Channels
  ‍The V-shaped sapphire blades create much smaller channels during the incision process compared to traditional treatments that use steel blades.
• ‍Natural Look
  Experienced surgeons can create a more natural-looking hair transplant with sapphire blades. These blades allow for more precise angling and placement, resulting in a look that mimics your natural hair growth.
• ‍Ideal for Skin Sensitivities
  Sapphire blades eliminate the possibility of allergic skin reactions that can sometimes be caused by metal, making them ideal for sensitive skin.
• ‍Lower Risk of Complications
  Sapphire blades do not blunt like steel blades, minimising skin damage. This results in a quick recovery time.
• ‍Sapphire Blades are Exceptional
  Choosing the Sapphire method means opting for the best quality tools. The sapphire blades stay sharp for a long time, ensuring consistent precision.
• ‍Less Risk of Bleeding
  The risk of bleeding post-treatment is dramatically reduced with sapphire blades. The skin responds well to grafts made by delicate sapphire blades.

Sapphire FUE offers numerous benefits, including high hair density, smaller incision channels, a natural look, and suitability for sensitive skin. The sapphire blades used in this method are of exceptional quality, reducing the risk of complications and bleeding, and ensuring quick recovery. While Sapphire FUE is of the highest quality, DHI remains a proven and effective alternative, providing excellent results for many individuals.

‍FUE vs DHI: What You Need To Know 

‍Let's further explore the differences between FUE and DHI hair transplant methods.  

‍Follicular Unit Extraction involves extracting each hair follicle from the donor area and individually implanting them into the treatment area by hand. This meticulous process ensures precise placement for a natural look.  

‍Direct Hair Implantation is a variation of the FUE method, utilising a specialised pen-like device (i.e., Choi pen or implant pen) for the procedure. This device extracts hair follicles from the donor area and directly implants them into the treatment area, streamlining the process.  

‍The main difference between FUE and DHI lies in the extraction and implantation techniques. FUE is done entirely by hand, while DHI uses the pen-like device, offering a more efficient approach.

Benefits of DHI Hair Surgery

Here are the top benefits of the DHI hair transplant method:‍

• Extent of Hair Loss: DHI is better suited for those with less severe hair loss.
• Enhanced Hair Density: It often results in better hair density regrowth.
• Targeted Treatment: Perfect for addressing smaller areas of hair loss.
• Quick Recovery: Patients experience fast healing and recovery times.
• Minimised Side Effects: There are fewer side effects compared to other methods.
• Less Traumatic: The procedure is less traumatic for the scalp.
• Minimally Invasive: DHI is minimally invasive, making the experience more comfortable.‍

Both FUE and DHI are highly effective hair transplant methods with high success rates. When you see Este Medical's before and after results and read our 5-star Trustpilot client reviews, you'll gain the confidence to choose Este Medical Group for your hair transplant in Turkey.

Another exciting development in the world of hair transplants is the Robotic Hair Transplant! ‍

What Is Robotic Hair Transplant? 

The DHI Robotic Hair Transplant is the newest and most advanced of the hair restoration methods, combining direct hair implantation (DHI) with state-of-the-art robotic technology.  ‍

The robotic system uses microscopic precision to ensure each hair follicle is transplanted perfectly, offering numerous advantages over manual hair transplants. The robotic DHI method excels in achieving natural-looking results, precision in hair implantation, and providing a seamless transplant experience. This method combines the expertise of a surgical team with automated robotic technology to achieve optimal results, with a hair transplant surgeon and restoration team overseeing and performing the transplant process. ‍

One notable benefit of the Robotic DHI Transplant is the use of optimised biological conditions, such as UV light and hair follicle growth factors, which enhance the survival rate of each transplanted hair.  ‍
