Sapphire FUE is an advanced version of the Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) technique, designed to achieve even more natural results and faster healing. The main difference lies in the use of sapphire blades instead of traditional steel tools for creating recipient channels.
These ultra-sharp blades allow for greater precision, less tissue trauma, and higher graft survival rates. At Badge Health in Turkey, our surgeons use the latest sapphire technology to deliver outstanding outcomes for patients seeking permanent and natural hair restoration.
I would like to firstly thank aleyna , irem and Nesrine for all their amazing support help and although so friendly but very professional. They made me feel part of The Badge family .. I also want to thank wonderful surgeon Muhammad Eren Șimșek he has done amazing. Feel a million dollars no pain but perfection. My second time now at the Badge and I will most certainly be back. Again from the beginning in contact with admin to flights to the driver to the hotel.. everything runs so smoothly and the people are just gorgeous. I literally will miss them. I’m so happy with the whole process❤️❤️❤️❤️

I had a really positive experience from start to finish. Everything was so easy to book, and the whole process was organised really well. As soon as I arrived in Turkey, I was picked up from the airport and taken straight to the hotel, …

I had breast augmentation with badge clinic. The experience from start to finish has been very smooth. The hospital is very clean and staff as helpful as can be. Slight language barrier with some nurses but was fine overall. Very happy with my results and would recommend to anyone thinking about coming to Turkey for the same surgery.

I did the hair transplant. Everyone was super cool and nice. My Coordinator Nisrine walked me through all of the steps so I knew what to expect through the procedure and for my after care. The whole process they make sure you are comfortable and accommodated. The hotel they put you up at is really nice, the Free Breakfast Buffet is the BOMB and so is the room service menu. I had a nice stay and my procedure was as painless as possible. 10/10 Would recommend to a friend!

Had a great experience from the minute i landed, everyone was very welcoming, made me feel at ease, can’t thank my 2 nurses enough from being in the hospital and hotel, kept reassuring me when was needed, especially being so far from home, definitely made the right choice with choosing badge clinic.. only thing i would say was hard was the language barrier but that’s excepted to come to there country, nothing google translate doesn’t help with x

Excellent customer care from Nesrine and Miray. I am very happy with service I received- my new nose looks amazing. Nurse Team was always available and ready to assist. Nesrine who was my medical coordinator went above and beyond to help me out, she even done shopping for me when I couldn’t go out from the hospital! I felt like I was a part of a family rather than just a client. Everyone was professional and so supportive. I will definitely be coming back to Badge Clinic in the future! Thank you

Badge clinic was amazing! I had nurses with me 24/7 who were there to help me understand what was happening during the procedure! Dr. Sarper was very kind and has done 100 liposuctions! He never made me feel uncomfortable and made sure I understood what was best for my body! Highly recommend!

I recently underwent a hair transplant at Badge Clinic in Istanbul, and I couldn’t be happier with the entire experience. From the initial consultation to the post-procedure follow-up, the team at Badge Clinic demonstrated professionalism, expertise, and genuine care.
The clinic itself is state-of-the-art, with modern facilities that made me feel comfortable and reassured throughout the process. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure all my questions were answered and that I felt fully prepared before the procedure. The medical team, led by highly skilled surgeons, was extremely meticulous, ensuring everything was done with precision and care.
The procedure itself was smooth and relatively painless, and I was impressed with the thoroughness and attention to detail. The team ensured I understood the post-op care instructions, and the follow-up support has been fantastic. I am excited about the final outcome!
Traveling to Istanbul for this procedure was definitely worth it also VIP transportation between airport, 5 start to clinic and Badge Clinic provides an excellent combination of affordability and world-class expertise. For anyone considering a hair transplant, I would highly recommend Badge Clinic. They exceeded my expectations in every way.

My whole journey with badge clinic was very professional, everyone was very friendly and helpful, from the first consultation and later on site in turkey. The ladies have looked after me very well and I want to express my gratitude. Dr. Mete has done a fabulous job, and I can’t wait to see my end results in a few months.

Not sure where to start! 10 out of 10. Badge Clinic is the best thing that ever happened to me. Surgeons are professional and can’t say thank you enough to the nurses at the hospital and the hotel. They were caring and helpful. My coordinator Miray was explaining everything in detail so I was aware of everything. She still messaging me after I was back in UK. 🥰 Can’t thank this team enough! Thank you ❤️🙏
Paulina U.
I highly recommend Badge Clinic. From the beginning to the end they were really supportive! All nurses and doctors above and beyond professional. Me and my partner were treated like in 5 star hotel. I got much more than I expected. So happy to be here for my breast uplifting and enlargement. I wish to give them 10 out of 5 if I could. Really nice experience and I felt really safe. I just want to say thank you to all personel from a badge clinic!!

I am a patient from the UK who travelled to Badge clinic in Turkey upon recommendations. The level of service from start to finish was 5 star. I had surgery done with badge clinic and everything from their part was so well planned out. Everyone representing the clinic was very friendly and took such good care of me. The communication was 5 star. As my surgery was a few days ago, i haven’t been able to see my final result but from what I have seen, I am extremely happy! Thank you Badge clinic! I will be visiting again.

Kasey T.
I had a wonderful experience at badge clinic, the staff were all exceptionally professional and the service is just at a very high standard and I am not someone who is easy to please. The hotel is perfect, with a spacious lounge area, washing machine and fully functional kitchen. The hospital is very modern and clean with nurses attending to all my needs around the clock. I don’t usually write long reviews but I really had a great experience and I would definitely recommend to anyone! ❤️ Once again, I would like to say thank you to all the staff, nurses and doctors who have looked after me during my stay.

Felt welcomed as soon as I arrived.
I had Dr mete who was absolutely lovely.
All the nurses have been great with me here! Clinic is so clean. Overall experience has been great.
Celina A.
Very welcoming people. I was stressed that the doctor had to take my canine out and is visible so they came with the option with a temporary tooth until next appointment for the implant. Also the bridge procedure was done with precision. Honestly they know what they are doing and you feel in good hands. Highly recommend Badge Clinic.🌸🌸🌸

My girlfriend had breast augmentation with Dr. Mete in May 2024, and it’s been 2 months. We really love the results. What a professional team! Thanks to my medical consultant, Joey, for helping us through everything.

Sapphire FUE is a minimally invasive hair restoration method that involves extracting hair follicles individually and implanting them into recipient sites created with sapphire blades. The V-shaped sapphire tips enable more controlled incisions, allowing for denser and more natural-looking hairlines.
This technique is especially effective for:
Receding hairlines
High-density restoration in thinning areas
Patients seeking faster recovery
Natural-looking and seamless results
How is Sapphire FUE Performed?
The procedure follows these main steps:
Donor Area Preparation: Hair follicles are harvested one by one from the donor area (usually the back of the scalp).
Sapphire Blade Channel Creation: Using fine sapphire blades, the surgeon creates micro-channels in the recipient area with extreme precision.
Graft Implantation: Extracted follicles are placed into the channels at the correct angle and depth to mimic natural growth.
The sapphire blades reduce trauma, resulting in quicker recovery and higher graft survival. The procedure typically lasts 6–8 hours.
Advantages of Sapphire FUE
More precise incisions with sapphire blades
Higher graft density and natural appearance
Reduced bleeding and faster healing
Minimal scarring and discomfort
Long-lasting, natural-looking results
Suitable for men and women
Recovery After Sapphire FUE Hair Transplant
Patients usually experience minimal discomfort after Sapphire FUE. Redness and swelling are less compared to traditional FUE due to reduced tissue trauma.
2–3 days: Patients can return to work and light activities.
1 week: Redness and scabs usually heal.
3–4 months: Initial new hair growth begins.
6–12 months: Noticeable density and natural results.
With proper aftercare, Sapphire FUE delivers permanent results and a seamless, natural appearance.
Risks and Considerations
Sapphire FUE is a safe procedure, but minor risks such as temporary redness or swelling may occur. Choosing an experienced clinic like Badge Health ensures minimized risks and excellent outcomes.
