Sapphire Hair Transplant Technique
Sapphire Hair Transplant Technique: What Is It and Why Has It Become the Best Option?
The Sapphire technique is one of the most advanced and widely spread hair transplant methods, thanks to a range of advantages that make it the optimal choice for many individuals. This technique is known for its high success rate of up to 99%, as it helps maintain tissue integrity and reduce inflammation caused by the transplant procedure. Therefore, it is considered the best and most suitable option for hair transplants in men, as well as for beard and chin hair transplants.
The Sapphire technique relies on the “Follicular Unit Extraction” process, where hair follicles are individually extracted from the donor area and carefully transferred to the recipient area using a precise scalpel made from sapphire (blue sapphire). This advanced tool helps achieve more accurate results and reduces potential damage to the surrounding tissue.
It is essential to carefully choose the specialized doctor and medical center when opting for this delicate cosmetic procedure. A proper choice ensures a successful experience and impressive results, while an incorrect choice may lead to negative outcomes and undesirable consequences. Hair transplantation is not just a cosmetic procedure; it is a precise process that requires high expertise and skill.
Candidates for Sapphire Hair Transplant
Hair loss is a common issue among both men and women, occurring for various reasons such as genetic factors, hormonal changes, medications, hair care products, or psychological stress. The ideal candidates for the Sapphire hair transplant technique are:
- Those who suffer from severe hair loss.
- Those who are over the age of 25.
- Those who are in good overall health.
- Those who have a dense and high-quality donor area.
Tips Before Undergoing Sapphire Hair Transplant:
During the initial consultation with the doctor, the patient is provided with several important tips to ensure the success of the hair transplant and avoid side effects. The key tips include:
- Stop smoking for two weeks before the procedure to avoid its negative impact on the growth of hair follicles.
- Refrain from drinking alcohol for one week before the procedure, as it affects anesthesia.
- Avoid drinking natural blood thinners such as green tea to reduce the risk of bleeding during and after the procedure.
- Stop consuming caffeine, especially coffee, for four days before the procedure.
- Follow a healthy and balanced diet.
- Avoid taking blood-thinning medications, such as aspirin and ibuprofen.
Stages of Sapphire FUE Hair Transplant:
Hair and Scalp Examination:
The process begins with a thorough examination of the hair using a specialized device to determine the quality and density of the hair in the donor area, the rate of hair loss, and the number of follicles to be transplanted.Determining and Drawing the Hairline:
In this stage, the surgeon draws the front hairline based on the patient’s preferences and medical opinion, to define the final shape of the hair after the procedure.Hair Shaving:
The hair is shaved completely to facilitate the process of extracting follicles from the donor area and implanting them into the recipient area.Local Anesthesia:
The donor area is locally anesthetized, allowing the follicles to be extracted using a precise motor without the need for surgical incisions. The follicles are then preserved in a saline solution to maintain their quality.Transplantation Stage:
The recipient area is anesthetized, and the surgeon makes precise incisions that align with the natural direction of the hair. The follicles are then carefully implanted into these incisions.
What to Expect After Sapphire Hair Transplant Surgery:
The process of hair growth after a hair transplant follows these stages:
- After 5-6 days: The process of skin peeling and scab shedding begins.
- During 15-21 days: The “temporary shock” phase begins, where the transplanted hair may shed. This is normal and indicates the success of the procedure.
- After 3 months: The new hair follicles begin to grow.
- After 6 months: A noticeable growth of the transplanted hair can be observed, with about 60-70% of the follicles having grown.
