The Direct Hair Implant (DHI) hair transplantation technique is a slightly improved version of the Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) hair transplantation technique in terms of the extraction and transplantation of hair grafts.
Hair grafts are taken from the back of the head or from another part of the body such as beard, chest, etc. with the support of a micromotor device and transferred to the areas with hair growth, just like in the classical FUE technique. The difference of DHI hair transplantation technique from other techniques starts after this stage.
The unique techniques of the DHI hair transplantation technique offer patients a much more advanced technology than other techniques. The DHI technique first offers the opportunity to transplant hair grafts without the use of incisions or stitches and without drilling holes in the scalp. With the DHI hair transplantation technique, hair transplantation can be performed with a lifetime guarantee. With this procedure, which is completed in a single session, it is possible to have more natural-looking and denser hair.
The main difference in the application of the DHI technique is the use of a special hair transplant pen that has been developed in the last few years. After the grafts taken with the pen, which varies between 0.6 mm and 1 mm in fineness, are separated and cleaned, they are transferred to sparse areas without opening any channels. This technique, which requires more attention, precision and labor compared to other hair transplantation methods, offers many advantages that cannot be ignored to people with baldness.
Other Advantages of DHI Hair Transplant Technique
Thanks to the fine-tipped structure of the Choi pen, hair transplantation can be performed more intensively and faster. With the hair transplant pen, the natural growth direction of the transplanted hair can be determined exactly as it should be. Thus, it is much more possible to give the hair a more natural appearance. Since no incisions or canals are made in the area to be transplanted, the existing healthy hair follicles are not damaged in any way during the transfer. The risk of bleeding is minimized as much as possible by not making any holes, incisions or stitches in the hair transplantation area. Thus, the healing process is much faster. The retention rate of the transplanted hair grafts is much higher. The new transplanted hair grafts start to grow faster. In this way, since the hair follicles are transplanted without waiting, cell division can continue where it left off. Since no incisions or stitches are made, there is no visible scarring after the healing is completed. In addition, the donor area where the hair grafts are taken is very little damaged. In this way, there is faster healing in the donor area. A very natural appearance can be achieved by designing and applying the front hairline and density in the most suitable way for the person. In DHI hair transplantation technique, local anesthesia is applied to prevent pain. The patient can continue his/her normal life without any interruption after the operation.
