Hair Transplant Journey at Turkey

Sapphire FUE is a refined version of the traditional FUE hair transplant method. Instead of using steel blades for incision, sapphire blades are used. These blades are much sharper and allow for smaller, more precise incisions. This technique reduces tissue damage, improves graft survival, and results in less scarring. Sapphire FUE is known for providing more natural-looking hairlines and faster recovery compared to traditional FUE.

The recovery time after a Sapphire FUE hair transplant is relatively short, typically ranging from 7 to 10 days. Because sapphire blades create smaller incisions, there’s less tissue damage and a quicker healing process. Most patients can return to work or normal activities within a week, although it’s important to avoid strenuous activities for a few weeks to ensure proper healing.

DHI (Direct Hair Implantation) is an advanced hair transplant method where hair follicles are directly implanted into the scalp using a special pen-like tool called a Choi Implanter. Unlike FUE, which involves creating incisions before placing follicles, DHI places the follicles directly without making cuts. This allows for precise control over the angle, depth, and direction of the transplanted hair, leading to more natural-looking results and higher follicle survival rates.

The DHI technique offers several key advantages, such as reduced scarring, no need for incisions, and faster healing times. It also allows for better density and more precise follicle placement. Since DHI directly implants hair follicles, it reduces the trauma to the scalp, resulting in a less painful experience and a quicker recovery compared to traditional methods like FUE.

A Hybrid hair transplant is a combination of both FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) and DHI (Direct Hair Implantation) techniques. During the procedure, FUE is used to extract hair follicles from the donor area, while DHI is used to implant the follicles into the recipient area. This combination maximizes the benefits of both methods, providing a balance between efficient follicle extraction and precise implantation for natural, dense hair growth.

Hybrid hair transplants are ideal for individuals with moderate to severe hair loss who want the benefits of both methods—optimal follicle extraction and high-density, natural-looking implantation. This technique is particularly effective for those seeking to restore a full hairline, as the precision of DHI allows for more detailed placement, while the efficiency of FUE allows for a larger number of grafts to be transplanted in one session. The results are typically dense, natural, and long-lasting.
