What is DHI Hair Transplantation?
Direct Hair Implantation (DHI) is an advanced hair transplant technique that allows for a more precise and efficient implantation of hair follicles. Using a specialized tool called the Choi implanter pen, DHI enables surgeons to extract and implant hair follicles in one seamless motion, ensuring natural-looking results and minimal tissue trauma.
How Does the DHI Hair Transplant Procedure Work?
Initial Consultation
The procedure starts with a thorough consultation where a specialist evaluates the patient’s hair condition, density of the donor area, and the extent of hair loss. A customized treatment plan is then created to meet the patient’s individual needs and expectations.
Extraction of Hair Follicles
Similar to FUE, individual hair follicles are harvested from the donor area, usually located at the back of the scalp, using a specialized extraction tool. The follicles are carefully collected to preserve their quality and ensure their survival during the transplant.
Direct Implantation
Unlike the FUE method, where extracted follicles are first stored and then implanted, DHI uses the Choi implanter pen to directly place the follicles into the scalp immediately after extraction. This allows the surgeon to have more control over the depth, angle, and direction of each hair follicle, ensuring that the new hair grows in a natural pattern.
No Need for Incisions
One of the key differences with the DHI technique is that it does not require incisions or the creation of channels in the recipient area. Instead, the follicles are implanted directly into the scalp with the implanter pen, which reduces the risk of scarring and shortens the recovery time.
Post-Procedure Care
As with all hair transplant procedures, patients are given detailed aftercare instructions to ensure proper healing and optimal results. Mild swelling or redness may occur, but these effects subside quickly. Within 6 to 12 months, patients can expect to see full results as their transplanted hair begins to grow naturally.
Is DHI Right for You?
DHI is an excellent option for individuals looking for a minimally invasive hair restoration solution with natural, lasting results. It’s particularly suitable for those who want to avoid incisions, reduce recovery time, and achieve high hair density in the treated areas.
