What is Sapphire Technique in Hair Transplantation?

Sapphire Technique: It is the use of a cutting tool made of sapphire material instead of the metal-tipped tool used to open microchannels in classical hair transplant surgery. Compared to the Lateral Slit technique, microchannels allow the transplantation of more hair follicles. At the same time, the triangular shape of the opened microchannels allows the hair follicles to adapt and heal faster to the transplanted area.

Note: Doctor control is important for the application of sapphire technique. The scalp of the person to undergo hair transplantation may not be suitable for microchannel opening with sapphire technique. Before the procedure, it should be checked whether it is suitable under the supervision of a doctor.
