Fue Hair Transplant, Hair loss is one of the cosmetic problems that everyone, especially adult men, can face. The negative effect of hair appearance, which is one of the most important determinants of outward appearance, can cause various problems by disturbing the individual in social and psychological aspects. In the past, hair loss was considered an inevitable end for most middle-aged and older men. However, with the development of hair transplant practices and the diversification of techniques used in recent years, we can now perform hair transplant operations on almost all of our patients with baldness problems and obtain very satisfactory results. .
In this way, our patients can leave behind the problem of baldness and go on with their lives satisfied with their outward appearance.
In hair transplantation, which we plan and carry out in the most appropriate way for the person with more than one method, hair transplantation technique is one of the questions that most of our patients are interested in. FUE Hair Transplant, DHI Hair Transplant and some of their customized versions may be preferred depending on the types of hair loss, hair structures and spill area of our patients.
Determining our patient’s suitability for hair transplantation and the most suitable method according to the type of hair loss is possible after a detailed examination during the first examination. The latest and most advanced methods applied in professional hair transplant clinics today consist of FUE hair transplant and DHI hair transplant, which is a different interpretation. In fact, FUE hair transplantation means the technique of harvesting grafts from the donor area. Grafts collected with the method’s long name “Follicular Unit Extraction” are placed in the channels of the transplant area in several different ways. We call FUE hair transplantation with special expressions such as FUE Sapphire, depending on the placement method in question and the equipment used at this stage. By performing treatments with such innovative approaches at our center, we perform more successful operations compared to other centers and ensure that you have natural-looking hair.
What is the Sapphire FUE technique?
Follicular Unit Extraction, or FUE for short, refers to the hair transplant technique in which we take the roots one by one from the area where healthy hair follicles are dense, which we have determined as the donor area, and transplanted them onto the balding skin. In the FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation) technique used in the past, it was necessary to remove the skin containing a number of hair follicles in a single layer. Since this situation causes significant damage and scarring in the donor area, this method was replaced by the FUE technique with the development of hair transplant techniques. We can perform hair transplantation with the FUE method on anyone who has thinning or thinning hair and has sufficiently dense and healthy hair follicles in another part of their head (such as the nape of the neck or the back of the head) . FUE hair transplantation is a successful hair transplantation technique, which is the most widely used in our country and in the world.
With the development of the FUE method around innovative ideas and technologies, this technique has revealed in recent years a new, more accomplished approach.
This technique, called FUE Sapphire technique or sapphire FUE, is an advanced modification of the existing FUE method. The Sapphire FUE technique, which we also apply in our clinic and which has a much higher success rate compared to classic FUE, differs from classic FUE by the characteristic of the blade that we use when grooving. In the traditional FUE technique, we opened channels with a steel blade. However, in the sapphire FUE technique, we use a special blade made of sapphire, a precious metal. Sapphire blades, which have a sharper, smoother and more durable structure compared to steel, allow us to open more micro-channels and create smaller wounds in the planting area.
The phase of creating channels in hair transplantation is the most important stage of the operation. Since the healthy opening of the channels has a direct effect on the growth of new hair after the procedure, its correct angle, direction and density, the high standards of the blade we use greatly increase our success in hair transplantation. hair. With the help of sapphire blades, it is not possible to achieve more precise and smaller canals with a steel blade. Therefore, by performing our operations with the Sapphire FUE technique, we obtain more natural and healthier hair.
How do we perform hair transplantation with FUE Sapphire technique?
How do we perform hair transplantation with FUE Sapphire technique?
Before the operations that we perform with the FUE technique, the hair must be shaved. We prepare our patient for the operation by shaving the area where the hair follicles to be transplanted or the entire head will be removed. When starting hair transplantation with the Fue Sapphire technique, we first apply a local anesthetic substance to our patient’s scalp and wait for the area to go numb. Then we collect our grafts from the area with dense hair follicles on the back of the head. Using a sapphire blade, we open the channels that we will use to place the follicles on the hairless area where we are going to transplant. After opening the channels, we apply another innovative approach, the growth factor solution. With the solution containing growth factor components, we calm the skin and soothe the area. After completing this step, which we call opening the channels, we place the grafts in the channels and complete the operation. After the procedure, we clean the area and apply an antibiotic cream to prevent the risk of infection, and we close the application area.

After FUE Hair Transplant, our patients may experience some swelling or discomfort which will last for a short time. However, these are temporary and disappear in a few days if they pay attention to the suggestions we give after the operation. Since we perform the hair transplant with the sapphire technique, we minimize the risk of complications after the operation. Since the sapphire blade greatly reduces tissue damage, the occurrence of scabs is reduced and the risk of infection and the possibility of scarring are nearly eliminated.
The possibility of developing conditions that can reduce adhesion, such as moving hair follicles, changing angles, or exiting the channel in small incisions, is greatly reduced. For this reason, we achieve a successful result with healthy hair follicles and a very natural hairline.
Another process as important as the hair transplant operation is some issues that our patients need to pay attention to after the procedure. Showing the necessary sensitivity after returning home is very important to increase hair hold and shorten the healing process. Our patients should not wash their hair or take a shower for the first three days after the operation. After that, our patients have to go through a very delicate washing process with a shampoo of the appropriate content. For a period of time, we ask our patients to avoid strenuous physical activities, to be careful when lying down and not to lift weights. These are very important for the healthy attachment of the hair follicles that we place in the channels. After the healing process, we can see a shedding process, which we call shock shedding, in our patients. This is a natural part of the process and the hair that has been lost will start to grow back after a while.
We achieve very successful results in the hair transplants we perform in our clinic using new and non-marking technologies, and we value the satisfaction of our patients.
