Hair transplantation is an effective and safe solution for hair loss, which affects millions of people. This article explains the specific method – Sapphire FUE Hair Transplant.
The two most common methods of hair transplants in Turkey are FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) and DHI (Direct Hair Implantation).
The Sapphire Technique is an advanced version of the FUE technique that allows us to achieve the most natural results in hair transplantation and perform more frequent hair transplants.
One of the most important criteria for success in hair transplantation is transplanting the most significant number of grafts in the best possible way. The transplanted hair should appear as frequently as possible and so natural that it is impossible to tell it is a hair transplant.
Sapphire FUE hair transplant is the hair transplantation method that comes closest to the perfection we seek in hair transplantation.
Thanks to the microchannels opened with sapphire blades, the ability to evaluate the hair follicles collected from the donor area to achieve maximum volume in the recipient area expands the solution possibilities in hair transplantation to a higher level. Sapphire FUE is raising the bar on naturalness by the day.
Despite its high cost, Sapphire FUE hair transplant is a widespread technique among those who have a hair transplant in Turkey because it provides the best hair transplant results and has many other advantages.
Sapphire Hair Transplant is a less invasive advanced version of FUE hair transplantation that uses sharp-tipped special surgical pens made of sapphire ore.
With the development of the FUE technique, hair transplantation operations that provide a permanent solution to hair loss have become more widely used. Although the hair follicles are collected one by one from the donor area and transplanted into the channels opened one by one in the balding area, this is a type of microsurgical application, but opening many micro-wounds causes significant total tissue destruction.
The tissue trauma caused by these micro-wounds is minimized using the Sapphire hair transplant technique. Sharp sapphire blades open much smaller V-shaped channels. A smooth surgical incision significantly reduces tissue deformation and allows us to achieve more natural hair transplant results.
Sapphire FUE Hair Transplant
The FUE hair transplant method individually transfers each hair from an area where abundant hair is present to an area where hair loss is apparent, unlike older methods such as FUT, which remove a long strip of hair. The FUE method can be explained in three simple steps.
- Collecting the hair to be transplanted
- Making channels in the problem areas
- Transplanting the collected hairs into incisions.
The Sapphire FUE technique utilizes a sharp sapphire blade to make small channels in the problem areas.
Traditional FUE methods, which use metal blades, are effective but can damage tissue due to the large number of incisions created.
One of the most important criteria for success in hair transplantation is transplanting the most significant number of grafts in the best possible way. The transplanted hair should appear as frequently as possible and so natural that it is impossible to tell it is a hair transplant.
Benefits of Sapphire FUE compared to other hair transplant methods:
Sapphire blades are V-shape,d while metal blades are U-shape. This makes the sapphire blade smaller and sharper than traditional metal FUE blades.
- Precision: Sapphire blades are sharper and more durable than those that were met. This allows for precise and clean incisions.

Remember, the success of a hair transplant procedure depends on various factors, including the susurgeon’skill and experience, the patient, and the patient care instructions.
Sapphire FUE Hair Transplantation Planning and Graft Count
The planning stage involves determining the number of grafts collected from the donor area. This is based on the severity of the patient’s air loss to a specific hair density in the areas to be transplanted. You can think of this planning stage as creating a map of the hair transplant procedure on the scalp.
Since the Sapphire technique allows for more channels to be opened, the number of grafts collected from the donor area is calculated accordingly. This ensures that there are enough grafts to fill all the channels created.
Maximum Hair Grafts
Most hair transplant clinics determine their prices based on the required hair grafts. However, Cayra Clinic uses a different approach known as the MAXIMUM GRAFT model. This model guarantees a single price while ensuring the maximum possible number of grafts are transplanted based on everyone’s needs.
The Sapphire FUE Procedure Overview:
Sapphire FUE Hair Transplant is a comprehensive procedure that can be completed in one day. However, for the best experience, we recommend a 2-3 day stay in Turkey. The first two steps are identical for FUE and DHI Hair transplants.
- Preparation
- Collecting grafts
- Channel Opening
- Graft Insertion
What is the procedure for Sapphire FUE Hair Transplant?
Sapphire FUE hair transplant involves transplanting individual hair follicles from the donor area into V-shaped incisions made with sapphire-tipped blades in the area to be transplanted.
The first and most important parameter that will determine the outcome of hair transplantation, regardless of the method used, is the hair reserve in the donor area. Even in severe hair loss, the Sapphire technique can produce results that exceed expectations. Still, it is critical to determine whether there is enough hair in the donor area to meet the patient’s expectations.
In the Inpatient stages, the Sapphire FUE hair transplant is the same as the FUE htransplantingLike. Like those used in the FUE technique, ststeelteel punches unches collect hair follicles. The Sapphire FUE difference is noticeable during the channel opening phase to the receiving area. Instead of the traditional FUE technique, the Sapphire technique employs many sapphire blades made of natural stone and aluminum alloy.
Sapphire FUE Hair Transplantation Stages
After determining that you are a suitable candidate for a Sapphire FUE hair transplant in Turkey, the process is divided into three basic steps.
- Sapphire before hair transplantation
- Sapphire Technique Hair Transplant Surgery
- Following Sapphire FUE Hair Transplant
Although hair transplantation is commonly associated with techniques such as FUE, Sapphire FUE, and DHI, the vital thing to remember is that the entire process is meticulously planned. As Cayraclinic mentioned, hair transplantation is a comprehensive procedure that requires the same level of care and attention at every stage. Collaborating with the patient in hair transplantation and establishing strong communication provides significant benefits both before and after the hair transplantation, both for the clinic and the patient.
Step 1: Preparation
Preparing for a hair transplant requires comprehensive preparation.
First, a blood test is conducted to ensure there are no underlying diseases, such as HIV or Hepatitis, that the doctors should be aware of.
Next, the surgeon carefully marks the areas on the head where the hair will be transplanted. Special attention is given to fine-tuning and perfecting the hairline.
Once the tests are completed and the areas marked, the hair in the donor area (where the grafts will be extracted) shaves.
Lastly, we perform a two-stage anesthesia process. First, we administer anesthesia that doesn’t cause any pain and lowers the discomfort from the local anesthesia.
Step 2: Collecting Grafts
In this step, the grafts are collected individually, one by one. A Micro Motor machine makes an incision around each hair follicle (Hair Root. The follicles are then collected and stored safely until they are ready to be transplanted.
It’s important to note that their follicles don’t return after a hadhadon’tansplantnce, and the entire root is removed. The surgeons carefully remove the grafts to ensure no areas are left without hair at the donor site. This requires skilled and experienced surgeons.
Step 3: Sapphire Fue Channel opening process
The tiny sapphire blade carefully and individually cuts small channels into the affected areas. The incisions are strategically made, considering the angle at which the hair will grow. They are also spaced apart so that the hair can grow naturally. Additionally, some surgeons make the hairline slightly irregular for a more natural-looking hairline. The incision process takes 2-4 hours, depending on how many grafts are transplanted.
Step 4: Transplantation
The collected hair grafts are individually implanted into the channels created. Surgeons and nurses pay close attention to how each graft is implanted. As you can imagine, placing 4000-5000 tiny hair follicles is a long and tiring procedure requiring experienced medical teams.
Recovery and Growth Phases:
The recovery journey post-Sapphire FUE is a gradual process:
Timeframe | Description |
First 1-3 Months | Scab removal and shock shedding occur. |
Shock Fall Phase | |
New hair growth begins. | |
6-10 months | Gradual strengthening of newly grown hair strands. |
80% of the new hair should be grown | |
One Year Later | The final result becomes apparent. |
Strengthened hair follicles and thicker hair contribute to the overall success of the hair transplant. |
Cost Considerations of Saphire Fue hair Transplant:
Price of Sapphire FUE Hair Transplant in Turkey in 2025 The cost of a Sapphire FUE procedure can change depending on various factors, including the extent of hair loss and the patient’s experience. In Turkey, the price for a FUE Hair Transplant typically ranges from 1000 to 3500 Euros.
The price of Sapphire FUE Hair transplant is increased using precious metal tips and labor costs, necessitating experience. Having gained the having of the entire world in hair transplantation, Turkey remains the destination for Sapphire FUE hair transplantation.
Sapphire FUE Hair Transplant is preferred by patients from all over Europe seeking a hair transplant in Turkey. Sapphire FUE Hair Transplant prices are incomparably lower in Turkey than Europe and America. They range from € 1000 to € 3000.
Is Sapphire FUE Safe?
Sapphire FUE is a type of microsurgery. However, creating many micro-wounds can damage tissue. The Sapphire technique minimizes this tissue trauma. It uses sharp sapphire blades to create a much smaller V-shaped channel. This smooth surgical incision significantly reduces tissue deformation. As a result, the transplant results look more natural, and the procedure is safer.
Who is the Right Candidate for Sapphire FUE Hair Transplantation?
Sapphire FUE hair transplantation can be a solution for individuals between the ages of 20 and 60 who have sufficient hair follicles in the donor area, typically the back of the head.
Understanding Hair Loss
Hair loss varies from person to person. Sudden severe hair loss can be alarming, but it is temporary. Hair loss usually becomes noticeable at a particular stage and is more advanced than initially assumed. This advanced stage of hair loss is typically discovered during an online consultation.
An online consultation is required for all hair transplants. It’s not just for planning the hair transplantation procedure but also for understanding the causes of hair loss and determining the type of hair loss.
If a patient is young and baldness is likely in the coming years, planning for certain hair transplants is essential. The minimally invasive Sapphire hair transplant technique is worth considering, especially when a second hair transplant is possible.
How long does the procedure take?
The average time for a sapphire Fue transplant is 3-6 hours.
After Hair transplant
The first 7-10 days after hair transplantation are the most important. This period determines the overall success of the procedure. Each transplanted graft must attach securely to the scalp without infections or complications. Therefore, it is essential to follow all post-operation instructions.
Cayra Clinic monitors the process and provides remote support to the patient for one year following hair transplantation.
Who is the Right Candidate for Sapphire FUE Hair Transplantation?
All men and women between the ages of 20 and 60 should have enough hair follicles in the donor area to restore their hair using the Sapphire FUE hair transplantation technique.
A sapphire hair transplant is a permanent solution for typical hair loss, such as gaps at the temples, receding forehead lines, gaps at the hair from the top, or homogeneous thinning, as it can be used in cases of severe hair loss in a large area.
Online Consultation for Sapphire FUE Hair Technique
Hair loss occurs in varying degrees from person to person. Sudden severe hair loss can cause panic, which is usually only temporary. If the hair can regrow, seeking assistance from various treatments will be more appropriate.
Hair loss is usually noticed when it reaches a particular stage, and there is a much more advanced level of hair loss than is commonly assumed. Still, it is only discovered during an online consultation.
Online consultation is essential in Sapphire FUE hair transplantation, not only for planning a one-time transplant but also for understanding the causes of hair loss and determining the type of shedding.
If baldness is unavoidable in the coming years, the patient is still young. In that case, planning for future hair transplantation with the minimally invasive Sapphire technique is necessary, considering the possibility of second or even third hair transplantation.
During an online consultation, the patient is also informed about the factors to be considered prior to Sapphire Technique surgery.
- Blood thinners were not used before the Sapphire FUE hair transplant.
- Alcohol consumption must have ceased at least three days prior.
- You should notify your doctor if you have a chronic disease or take medication regularly.
- You should get plenty of rest and sleep before having Sapphire hair transplantation.
- Wearing buttoned or zippered clothing on the day of surgery is necessary pr avoid unnecessary hair follicles while dressing and undressing following the procedure.
Sapphire FUE Hair Transplant Surgery
Sapphire FUE hair transplant protocol is performed in 7 stages at Cayraclinic. These stages can be thought of as the flow of an operation day.
Examine SapphidaySapphiday’sEnsplant
Before hair transplant operations, mandatory general surgical procedures, such as various blood tests and a thorough hair transplant examination, are performed. Then, it is determined whether the patient’s health suits the operation.
At this stage, the patient’s history and plans for hair transplantation are assessed. The patient is informed about the other FUE hair transplantation technique, the hair transplantation operation processes, the estimated duration of the procedure, and all other details. Intriguing questions are addressed.
Sapphire FUE Hair Transplantation Planning / Graft Count
The number of grafts collected from the donor area should be allocated to the areas to be transplanted based on the severity of hair loss to obtain a particular hair density. Planning can be viewed as a map of the hair transplant procedure on the scalp.
Because the Sapphire technique allows for opening more channels, the number of grafts collected from the donor area is calculated accordingly.
Hairline Sapphire FUE Hair
Individual hairlines are drawn to match the aesthetic proportions of the face. We generally prefer it to be neither too late nor too early.
A natural hairline is one of the first factors every patient considers to achieve the best hair transplant results. The location of the hairline is the first thing to notice in the photos before and after Sapphire’Sapphire’snsplant.
Many details in hair transplantation, including determining the location of the hairline, are planned based on the donor area’s haarea’slicle reserve. The donor area is substantial, so it is easier to experiment with the hairline.
Anesthesia with Sapphire FUE
Sapphire hair transplant surgery is carried out under local anesthesia. For patients who are afraid of the anesthesia needle, painless anesthesia is an option.
Sapphire Technique Hair Root Collection
During Sapphire hair transplantation, hair follicles are collected one by one from the donor area on the nape of the head. Steel punches of varying diameters are used depending on the hair follicles’ thickness. This is the same stage as the FUE technique for Sapphire hair transplant.
The collected hair follicles are divided into groups based on thickness and stored in unique solutions until transplantation.
Sapphire Channel Opening Technique
At this point, Sapphire’Sapphire’sonary sapphire air transplantation becomes apparent. Because the microchannels opened with special sapphire tips of 1 mm / 1.3 mm and 1.5 mm in diameter are V-shape and their angles can be adjusted about each other, we can achieve the best results in hair transplantation.
Sapphire Technique Hair Root Transplantation
Different-sized sapphire tips open channels with the most minor diameter to the hair root to be planted. Hair follicles are placed in V-shaped channels according to pre-planned planning, resulting in a specific aesthetic distribution based on the characteristics of the area to be transplanted.
It takes 6-8 hours to transplant Sapphire hair. The final stage of Sapphire hair transplant surgery is hair follicle transplantation.
Following Sapphire FUE Hair Transplant
Those who have a hair transplant in Turkey stay in Turkey for at least two more days after the procedure is completed until the first wash is finished. The patient must rest following the operation, but you can explore one of the world’s most beautiful cities the following day. One of the most important factors to consider when considering the benefits of hair transplantation in Istanbul is the tourist atmosphere.
The Sapphire Method Wound Care / First Wash
Sapphire Technique demonstrates its ingenuity in rapid recovery even two days after surgery. A hair transplant nurse or specialist will perform wound care or the first wash one or two days after the Sapphire FUE hair transplant.
The first week after hair transplantation is the most delicate. The first stage is characterized by wound care. What follows is a period of gradual and rapid recovery.
Cayraclinic monitors the case processes and provides remote support to the patient for one year following hair transplantation.
The first 1-3 months following a Sapphire FUE hair transplant
The scab removal period is usually completed within the first month due to the low surgical deformation. Another significant event during this time is shock shedding. Hair that grows from all of the transplanted hair follicles falls out quickly.
Waiting for new hair to grow begins after the shock shedding. The scalp has significantly improved.
The first six months following a Sapphire FUE hair transplant
New hair starts to grow. They are expected to be weak at first. The roots of the hair become more substantial as it grows, and the hair strands become thicker.
One year later, the Sapphire FUE hair transplant Method
The result is almost entirely revealed. You’ve reached the point where your eyes begin to shine due to the joy of having your hair back. The hair follicles are strengthened for a while, and the hair strands are thickened.
