Sapphire FUE Hair Transplant
Istanbul
Sapphire FUE Hair Transplant in Istanbul is available at 4 hospitals in the Voumed network.
Sapphire FUE is a refined version of the follicular unit extraction hair transplant in which the tiny recipient channels are opened with a sapphire-tipped blade rather than a steel one. The sapphire tip is harder, smoother and finer, so each incision is cleaner and more precise, which lets the surgeon place grafts closer together for a denser, more natural hairline while causing less trauma to the scalp. Because the channels are smaller and tidier, most people heal faster and see less swelling, redness and crusting than with classic steel FUE. Many patients travel abroad for this procedure to reach high-volume specialist teams, save time and recover quietly away from everyday life. The result is permanent hair, taken from the patient's own donor area, that grows and is cut and styled like the rest of the hair.
