What is DHI Hair Transplantation?

DHI Hair Transplantation ("Direct Hair Implantation") is a method where hair follicles are extracted using a specialized medical pen called the Choi implanter and implanted directly into the scalp without the need for incisions or channel opening. This technique preserves the vitality of the hair follicles and allows for a faster and more efficient procedure.

How is DHI Hair Transplant Performed?

As with any hair transplantation method, a hair analysis is conducted to determine the patient's needs. Grafts are collected using the Choi implanter pen by experts. The collected hair follicles are then directly implanted into the recipient area using the same pen, without the need for shaving, cutting, or shortening the existing hair.

What are the Advantages of the DHI Method?

• Higher Density: Enables much denser implantation, resulting in a more natural and fuller appearance.
• Reduced Follicle Waiting Time: Minimizes the time hair follicles spend outside the body, preserving their health.
• Natural Angles: Allows for easier adjustment of the angle and direction of hair growth, leading to a more natural result.
• No Damage to Existing Hair: Can be performed without harming existing hair; ideal for individuals who have not completed hair loss.
• Faster Recovery: Patients experience a quicker healing process and can return to daily life sooner.
• Unshaven Transplantation: The procedure can be performed without shaving the hair, which is advantageous for those unwilling to cut their hair.
• No Incisions: Since there are no cuts or stitches on the scalp, the risk of scarring is reduced.

Is DHI Hair Transplant Suitable for Everyone?

While DHI is an advanced and effective method, its suitability depends on individual factors such as the extent of hair loss, donor area quality, and overall health. A thorough consultation with a hair restoration specialist is necessary to determine if DHI is the best option for you.

Recovery and Results

Recovery from DHI hair transplantation is generally quicker compared to other methods. Most patients can return to their normal activities within a few days. The transplanted hair will typically start to grow within 3-4 months, with full results visible after about 12-18 months.
