Materials
The handle of sapphire hair transplant blade is made of titanium and 115mm long. The blades are manufactured using a chemical process wherein the final product is composed of artificial sapphire, one of the hardest substances available (sapphire blades are rated a “9” on the Mohs scale of relative mineral hardness, one level lower than the hardest and densest of materials, diamond). By crafting a blade from this material, the cutting edge will remain sharp for much longer periods, leading to long-term cost savings for your practice.
Based on the feedback we get from our clients a Sapphire Blade will cut 3000-4500 slits. After that the Sapphire Blade will still cut but need a little force. When cutting in areas that still has hair follicles, steel blades can cause more damage to existing follicles. Sapphire Blades have a very smooth edge and sharp point, which will not damage existing hair follicles. This is one of the big advantages of Sapphire Blades.
