DHI Hair Transplant

DHI Hair Transplant

DHI (Direct Hair Implantation) stands for “Direct Hair Implantation”. DHI technique is a method mostly applied for sparse hair loss or unshaven transplantation. With this method, the location of the roots and graft implantation in the area to be transplanted are done at the same time. In other words, extraction and implantation are combined as one piece in a two-stage process. In this method, a medical pen called implanter is used by experts in the field. After the grafts (hair follicles) are placed in the implanter pen, which has a pointed, very thin and cylindrical tip, they are implanted in the area of hair loss in a single step thanks to the pushing feature of the pen. In this method, there is no need to open a canal in the scalp and thus comfort is provided to the patient. In the FUE DHI hair transplantation technique, grafts are collected using the FUE method as in other techniques.
In short, while the process is three-stage in the hair transplantation technique called FUE, it is two-stage in DHI.
