DHI Hair Transplant Turkey can be considered as an upgraded version of the standard FUE method. DHI stands for Direct Hair Implantation, and this technique allows surgeons to perform hair transplants with maximum density and minimal trauma.
It is called Direct Hair Implantation because the utilization of revolutionary Choi pens eliminates the need to open cuts on the recipient area in a hair transplant procedure. This advanced tool called Choi pen allows adjacent grafts to be implanted closer to each other, thus resulting in a denser appearance. The hollow tip of the pen allows the hair grafts to be implanted directly without opening channels prior to implantation.
In addition, a significant perk of DHI Hair Transplant is eliminating the need to shave the entire head, providing a discreet option for those who do not want to go completely bald for a hair transplant procedure.
Thanks to Choi implanter pens, DHI hair transplant provides the option for surgeons to implant more grafts in smaller areas. The density was observed around 75 units/cm2 for DHI method and 50 units/cm2 for FUE technique.
Compared to the FUE technique, the DHI method allows more flexibility with the adjustment of the angle of the implanted follicles. Advanced maneuvers allow surgeons to align the implanted grafts with the existing hairs in order to achieve a result that is as natural as it can get.
Since there are no cuts open in the recipient area, the tissue on the scalp receives minimal damage. This results in faster recovery and an easier return to social life.
In DHI Hair Transplant Turkey grafts are placed inside Choi implanter pens and implanted directly afterward. The graft stays compact inside the pen and cannot be bent or broken. This results in a higher survival rate of the hair follicles.
If you prefer a more discreet type of hair transplant or need to be in a business meeting 3-4 days after the operation then DHI is the perfect fit for you. This method does not require shaving the recipient area if patients desire so.
You may be lacking hair just on the frontal part of the scalp. In such cases, DHI hair transplant is the method for you. Done by the right expert, DHI can provide a result that cannot be distinguished from your original hair.

The difference of DHI method kicks in during the implantation phase. After the invention of Choi implanter pen in 1992 in Korea, the tool has been developed in order to be compatible with all sorts of hair types.
Apart from the preparations for the procedure like consultation, blood tests and anesthesia DHI Hair Transplant Turkey consists of two main parts.
The first step of a hair transplant operation is the extraction phase of the hair grafts. After shaving the donor area, surgeons extract the hair follicles one by one with 0,7-1.0 mm micro-motor or manual punches. The extraction phase is the same for FUE and DHI Hair Transplant procedures and this first step must be carried out with utmost care in order to make sure the donor area stays undamaged after the surgery.
This is the part where Direct Hair Implantation stands out. In the traditional FUE method channels are opened with slits in order to place the extracted hair grafts, in DHI method extracted follicles are transplanted directly on the scalp without opening any cuts prior. As mentioned before, this results in less trauma, more density, and a result much more natural.
Unlike traditional methods, DHI Hair Transplant requires the expert to work solo in almost both aspects of the procedure. In FUE hair transplant the channels are opened by the expert but the implantation of the grafts is done by the assisting nurses, in DHI the tedious part of the procedure is left to the expert alone.
Implantation of the hair grafts is done by the surgeon thoroughly. In order to make sure the duration of the operation does not exceed the standards, a higher number of grafts should be done in two consecutive days. If your case needs more than 3000-3500 grafts, it is recommended to perform the operation in two days.
Specifically crafted for hair transplant procedures, Choi pens offer numerous benefits to specialists. However, mastering this technique demands diligent training. It’s a method where the expert predominantly operates solo for most of the procedure. Thus a skilled expert with vast experience is a must when it comes to DHI hair transplant.
Due to the costly equipment that is required to use in DHI Hair Transplant Turkey, the price of the procedure may exceed the prices of other methods. Also if the length of the stay extends cost of extra accommodation also increases the price of the packages.
