Having high success rate and meeting expectations substantially, FUE technique has still been available for further developments. Accordingly, FUE technique has been improved more and a new method has been developed known as sapphire FUE.

It won’t be a mistake to say that sapphire hair transplantation is fundamentally the same with traditional FUE technique. The most important difference here is about the equipment used during channeling.

In traditional method, channeling is done via stainless steel blades whereas in sapphire FUE technique, as the name suggests, sapphire blades are used. Known with its smooth and durable structure, sapphire enables surgeons to create channels as they require. This way, success rate of the procedure also increases accordingly.

Channeling in hair transplantation is one of the most important stages of the procedure. Size of these channels must be exactly suitable with grafts. Smaller or larger channels may affect the final result of this procedure. Additionally, channels have to be created with suitable angles. Sapphire blades exhibit their difference right at this point. They provide much better results compared to traditional stainless steel blades. This way, success rate also increases.

Channels created by using sapphire blades are in suitable sizes and have suitable depth for grafts. So, grafts perfectly fit into these channels. This situation eliminates the risk of grafts to change their angles or to move inside those channels after transplantation. All these are important for hair transplantation to be completed as planned.

Low Risk of Complication

Although complication risk is very low in traditional FUE technique, it is even lower in sapphire FUE technique. Steel blades used in traditional methods can be blunt in time and efficiency may be accordingly lower. Even, this situation can cause unwanted tissue damage. For sapphire blades, on the other hand, such risk is not possible. These blades preserve their initial sharpness and structure for a long time. This way, tissue damage risk is also prevented and accordingly, risks of infection and other complications are also minimized.

High Density

Density in hair transplant is directly related with the amount of channels that can be opened. Sharp and smooth structure of sapphire blade enables those channels to be opened as required. Channels are not excessively large. This way, compared to traditional FUE technique, much more channels can be opened with sapphire FUE. More channels mean more density.
