A step-by-step look at what to expect during your Sapphire FUE hair transplant.
Dr. Shashidhar personally designs your hairline based on your facial structure, age, and natural hair growth patterns.
Local anesthesia administered to donor area (usually back of head). Area is sterilized and prepared for extraction.
Using sapphire-tipped blades, individual follicular units are carefully extracted with minimal trauma to surrounding tissue.
Sapphire blades create ultra-precise recipient channels at the correct angle and depth for natural hair growth.
Harvested grafts are meticulously placed into the channels following the natural growth pattern.
Detailed post-operative instructions provided. Most patients return to work within 7-10 days.
What to expect after your Sapphire FUE procedure
Sapphire FUE uses sapphire crystal blades instead of steel. Sapphire is harder and smoother, creating cleaner incisions with less tissue damage, resulting in faster healing, minimal scarring, and higher graft survival.
The procedure is performed under local anesthesia, so you won't feel pain during surgery. Some mild discomfort may occur during recovery, but this is manageable with prescribed pain medication.
For 2000-3000 grafts, the procedure typically takes 6-8 hours. For larger sessions (4000+ grafts), it may take 2 days or use combined techniques.
Transplanted hair starts to shed around 2-4 weeks post-op (this is normal). New growth begins at 3-4 months, with final results visible at 10-12 months.
Yes! Hair follicles from the donor area are genetically resistant to baldness, so transplanted hair will continue to grow naturally for life.
