- Convalescence
- Crusting appears and clears within 15 days. Visible signs fade almost entirely after 15 days. Swelling may develop between day 3 and day 5. Transplanted hair sheds after 1 to 2 months; 10 to 15% begins regrowing from month 3, with further growth each month. Regrowth continues for 12 to 15 months until the final result is reached.
Le traitement
What this treatment involves
Sapphire FUE is a follicular extraction method that relies on blades made from synthetic sapphire rather than steel. The sapphire edge holds its sharpness far longer during the procedure, allowing the surgeon to open recipient channels with the same precision from the first graft to the last.
Because the blade dulls more slowly, the surgeon maintains a steady hand and consistent control throughout a session that may involve several thousand incisions. This endurance matters in hair restoration, where fatigue can affect angle and depth.
The result for the patient is uniformity: each channel is opened with the same keenness, so the transplanted follicles sit at the correct angle and depth across the entire scalp. Angle and density govern how natural the hairline appears and how well the grafts blend with existing hair, making the choice of blade a factor in the final outcome.
