How the Treatment Works
With the Sapphire FUE method, the recipient channels for the hair follicles are opened using a special blade made of sapphire crystal instead of a classic steel needle.
- Finer, smoother cutting edge than a conventional steel needle
- Noticeably reduced tissue trauma and fewer micro-injuries
- Tighter, more precise channel spacing allows higher transplant density
- Proven technique with a long track record for extensive hair loss
Who It's Suitable For
Sapphire FUE is especially suited to patients with more extensive hair loss who need many grafts placed in a short time.
- Extensive or advanced hair loss requiring a high graft count
- A wish for the shortest possible healing time through gentle channel opening
- A sufficiently dense donor area, usually at the back of the head
- Suitability is assessed individually during your free hair analysis
Aftercare & Healing
Thanks to the finer cutting edge of the sapphire blade, many patients find the initial healing phase especially straightforward.
- Initial redness and scabbing usually subside within 10–14 days
- Gentle first hair wash following our team's guidance
- Most transplanted hairs shed again after 2–4 weeks — this is normal
- The dense final result typically appears after 10–12 months
