The first step in Sapphire FUE beard transplant is a consultation with a hair, beard and eyebrow transplant specialist. During this appointment, the doctor assesses the condition of your follicles and beard, and creates a plan for the distribution and density of the new hairs to achieve a natural look.
Hair follicles are taken from the back of the head, where the hair is thickest. Using special sapphire blades, the doctor carefully extracts individual follicles.
After the follicles are extracted, the doctor uses sapphire blades to create small, precise channels in the chin area where the follicles will be implanted. These blades allow for smaller, more precise incisions, which reduces the risk of scarring and speeds up the recovery process.
The extracted follicles are then carefully implanted into the prepared channels. Sapphire blades allow the doctor to position the follicles at optimal angles, resulting in a natural-looking beard.
The FUE method stands out as an extremely effective and reliable method of beard transplantation, offering patients numerous advantages and high-quality results.
Faster healing process: Compared to other beard transplant techniques, the FUE technique allows for a significantly shorter recovery time.
Minimal postoperative discomfort: After the procedure, patients usually do not experience discomfort such as tension or loss of sensation in the transplant area.
Greater number of grafts: the FUE technique enables the collection of a greater number of grafts, providing a wider possibility of achieving the desired results.
The gold standard in beard transplantation: It is considered the gold standard in the field of beard transplantation due to its precision and minimal invasiveness.
Avoidance of scars: Since no surgical incision is made, there is no risk of creating a visible scar.
High success rate: This technique has a high success rate in the permanent growth and quality of transplanted hair follicles.

Beard transplantation (beard transplant) is a procedure in which grafts (follicular units) are taken from the donor region (occipital region) and transplanted into the beard area to fill holes, increase density, or shape the beard line. Poliklinika Dijamant Sarajevo makes a plan according to the shape of the face and the desired beard style.
A good candidate is someone with insufficient beard density, gaps, scars in the beard or uneven growth, with a sufficiently dense donor region. At the Poliklinka Dijamant Sarajevo, candidacy is assessed by examining the beard and donor region.
The procedure is usually postponed in cases of active inflammatory skin conditions (e.g. severe folliculitis, dermatitis), uncontrolled chronic diseases, or if the donor region is too weak, which is a very rare case. Poliklinika Dijamant Sarajevo considers an assessment and a realistic plan to be very important.
Congenital sparse or uneven beard; scars in the beard region after trauma, burns or surgery; localized hair loss in the beard area; correction of asymmetry or filling gaps in the beard and mustache; aesthetic increase in beard density in patients with a good donor area on the scalp
Alopecia areata barbae or other active inflammatory causes of hair loss; active infections, dermatitis, folliculitis or inflammatory changes in the beard region; active scarring alopecia; insufficient or poor-quality donor area; unrealistic patient expectations
The process usually includes: consultation and beard line design, local anesthesia, extraction and selection of grafts for a natural look, and implantation into the beard at the appropriate growth angle. Poliklinika Dijamant Sarajevo pays special attention to the direction of hair growth.
It is done under local anesthesia. Stings of anesthesia can be unpleasant for a short time, and pressure is usually felt during the procedure. After the procedure, there may be slight discomfort and tightness.
The duration depends on the number of grafts and the area being filled. It usually lasts several hours (3-5 hours). The exact plan and duration are agreed upon at the consultation in Sarajevo.
The number of grafts depends on whether small holes are being filled, just the mustache, part of the beard, or complete thickening is being performed. Poliklinika Dijamant Sarajevo determines the number of grafts based on the area, density goal, and available donor region.
Most often from the occipital region (donor region), because the hair is more stable there. In Sarajevo, Poliklinika Dijamant assesses the quality of the donor region and selects grafts that best match the appearance of the beard.
In the donor region, small point scars (as with FUE) may remain, which are barely visible immediately after the procedure, and a few weeks after the procedure, they are almost impossible to notice at all. Scars do not appear in the chin area.
The first growth is often noticed around the 3rd month, significant improvement around the 6th month, and the final result usually 9–12 months.
Yes. In the first few weeks, there is a common shedding phase, while the hair follicle remains in the skin. After that, new growth begins.
In the first days, redness, small scabs and slight swelling are possible. The scabs are gradually removed by proper washing according to the instructions you get at the Poliklinka Dijamant Sarajevo.
Washing is usually introduced very early, but with a gentle technique without rubbing and a strong jet. Poliklinika Dijamant Sarajevo provides an exact care and washing protocol by day.
Shaving is usually postponed until the grafts stabilize and the skin calms down. The exact period varies, but is usually within a few weeks to a few months, so it is best to follow the instructions of the Poliklinka Dijamant Sarajevo.
For office work, many people return after 1–3 days, but some wait 5–10 days due to visible scabs.
Light activities are usually possible soon, but intensive training and heavy sweating are usually paused for about 7–14 days. Poliklinika Dijamant Sarajevo provides recommendations for recovery.
Yes. Beard transplantation in Sarajevo is often performed to fill in gaps in the cheeks, mustache, or jawline. The design and placement of the grafts are planned to give a natural look, all in consultation with our hair transplant specialist Adem Kazan.
It can look very natural if the grafts are placed at the right angle and in the right direction of growth. At the Poliklinka Dijamant Sarajevo, the focus is on the natural direction of growth and density, which our hair transplant specialist Adem Kazan takes special care of.
The most common are redness, swelling, itching and occasional folliculitis (small pimples). Infections or more visible scars are very rare.
Look for: team experience, realistic “before/after” results with time points, clear recovery protocols, transparent graft plan, follow-ups and realistic expectations. Poliklinika Dijamant Sarajevo provides all this clearly and transparently, which can be checked on our website in the Experiences section, as well as on our social networks (Instagram, Facebook, TikTok), where you can also contact our patients.
