DHI & FUE Hair Transplant for Men - Sapphire

The DHI & FUE Sapphire hair transplant is the most advanced technique for treating male pattern baldness. At Nobel Clinic Istanbul, we combine two complementary methods: Sapphire FUE for precise follicle extraction and DHI (Choi Pen) for ultra-precise implantation. This hybrid approach allows for maximum density and a perfectly natural result.

How the Procedure Is Performed

The procedure takes place in several stages over the course of a day. After local anesthesia of the scalp, the follicles are extracted one by one from the donor area (occiput) using 0.8 to 1 mm sapphire micro-punch holes. The grafts are sorted and preserved in a nutrient solution. Implantation is performed using the Choi Stylo (DHI), which allows for precise control of the angle (40-45°), depth, and direction of each follicle. This hybrid DHI + Sapphire FUE technique offers the advantages of both methods: maximum density and rapid healing.

Technologies and equipment used

Stylo Choi
DHI implanter pen for the direct placement of hair grafts.

FUE Saphir
Follicle extraction performed with sapphire blades, for fine micro-incisions.

Trichoscopy
Examination of the scalp and follicles under a digital microscope.

Postoperative Follow-up and Recovery

Small scabs will appear around the grafts for 7 to 10 days
Slight redness may occur for 2 weeks
You can return to work after 3 to 5 days
Some transplanted hair will fall out (shock loss) between the 2nd and 4th week (this is normal)
Visible regrowth will begin after 3-4 months
Intermediate results will be visible at 6 months
Final results at 12-18 months

Expected Results

The results are definitive and permanent because the transplanted hairs come from a donor area resistant to baldness. The density achieved varies between 45 and 60 follicles/cm² depending on the area. The final result is perfectly natural, undetectable, with hair that grows normally and can be styled as desired.
