The primary difference between Sapphire FUE and traditional FUE is the use of sapphire blades instead of steel blades to create the channels for hair follicle placement. Sapphire blades are sharper, more precise, and create smaller, smoother incisions, which leads to faster healing, reduced scarring, and improved overall results.
Sapphire FUE is suitable for both men and women experiencing hair thinning or baldness, whether it’s due to genetics, aging, or other factors. The best candidates have sufficient donor hair at the back or sides of the head to harvest for transplantation. During your consultation at ONE CLINIC, we will assess your hair and scalp to determine if this technique is right for you.
Yes, Sapphire FUE is a safe, minimally invasive procedure performed by experienced surgeons at ONE CLINIC. The procedure is done under local anesthesia, meaning you will be awake but not feel any pain. Post-operative risks are minimal, and most patients experience only mild discomfort, swelling, or redness, which resolves quickly.
After your Sapphire FUE procedure, transplanted hair follicles will initially shed within the first few weeks, which is a normal part of the healing process. New hair growth typically begins around 3 to 4 months post-surgery, with full results visible by 12 months. The new hair will continue to grow naturally and will be permanent.
The duration of the Sapphire FUE procedure depends on the number of grafts needed, but it generally takes between 6 to 8 hours. You will be able to go home the same day after the procedure.
One of the major benefits of Sapphire FUE is that it leaves minimal scarring. The incisions made with sapphire blades are much smaller and more precise than those made with traditional steel blades, resulting in faster healing and almost invisible scarring. The results look natural, even with short hairstyles.
Most patients can return to their normal activities within a few days after the procedure. However, it’s recommended to avoid strenuous activities, direct sun exposure, and swimming for at least two weeks following the procedure. The small incisions heal quickly, and any redness or swelling typically resolves within a week.
