DHI Hair Transplantation



One of the most popular treatments for hair loss is DHI hair transplantation, also known as the Choi method since the Choi pen is its most distinctive feature. Choi pens have extremely fine, sharp tips. With these unique pens, grooving and hair transplantation can be accomplished simultaneously. Hair follicles are placed one by one by experts. The insertion method is very precise, and the follicles are planted at an ideal angle of 40-45 degrees. Besides the angle, the correct orientation following the previous hairline is also critical.

DHI Hair Transplantation in Turkey 

Turkey is one of the first countries to apply direct hair transplantation. It is an excellent alternative for people suffering from severe hair loss. The DHI technique produces the most natural-looking results while also providing rapid healing. This method is also becoming more and more popular in Turkey. Thanks to the DHI technique, the more problematic stages of hair transplantation are now a thing of the past.

DHI Hair Transplantation Costs

The cost of a direct hair transplant may be more than the cost of a traditional hair transplant. The main reason for this is that the Choi pens used during the operation are disposable. Also, more personnel is required to precisely place the hair follicles on the pens without delay. As a result, additional technicians and nurses are needed for operations using the DHI method.

The Difference Between DHI and FUE

The DHI technique for the collection of grafts also includes using the FUE method. In the DHI technique, grooving and graft placement are done simultaneously with Choi pens. While these pens position the root of the hair, they also help to groove. In the FUE technique, grooving is a separate procedure. Since the grooving is done with a relatively wider blade, it causes less planting than the DHI technique.

One of the most important differences between the DHI and FUE methods is that the DHI procedure allows for transplantation without shaving the hair. Therefore, transplantation using DHI is always a good option, especially for small areas. Since the transfer only takes a couple of minutes, the hair follicles do not stay outside the body for a prolonged period, reducing the risk of damaging them.

DHI Technique Results

Experts can measure the angle and depth of hair follicles more easily by using the DHI technique. Thanks to the Choi pens, this is accomplished in a single movement, which reduces the time it takes for natural-looking hair to heal. As a result, direct hair transplantation usually delivers better results than other techniques.

How does the DHI Method of Hair Transplantation Work? 

Past methods of hair transplantation such as FUT required the patient to shave their head. The DHI method, also known as the Choi Pen technique, is a new hair transplantation technique that provides a much more natural appearance to the frontal hairline, making it very similar to the patient's natural hairline. This techniques provides more natural results.

It is very important to design the frontal hairline properly. So, when choosing a hair transplantation center, make sure you have testimonies from previous patients, as well as before and after pictures. The primary stages of hair transplantation are making sure there is enough graft in the donor area, arranging the frontal hairline, deciding on the most suitable method, and completing the operation.

Another essential condition for hair transplantation is determining the amount of graft correctly and performing the procedure with minimum graft loss. Grafts collected during DHI hair transplantation are transplanted immediately and regularly. Thanks to the Choi pen method, transplantation can be done without damaging the area without hair loss.
