DHI (Direct Hair Implantation)

DHI (Direct Hair Implantation) is an advanced hair transplant technique that builds on the principles of FUE but takes the implantation process a step further with greater precision and control. It is widely used in Turkey, where many leading clinics specialize in this method.

🔹 What is DHI?

DHI is a modern hair restoration technique where extracted follicles are implanted directly into the recipient area using a Choi Implanter Pen. Unlike traditional FUE, which requires creating incisions before implantation, DHI allows surgeons to extract and implant follicles in a single step.

🔹 How the Procedure Works

1. Extraction – Similar to FUE, hair follicles are extracted individually from the donor area.
2. Loading the Pen – Each follicle is placed into a Choi Implanter Pen, a specialized tool that allows precise control of depth, angle, and direction.
3. Direct Implantation – The surgeon implants the follicles directly into the balding or thinning areas without pre-made incisions.

🔹 Key Benefits of DHI

• Maximum Precision – Choi Pen allows accurate placement for a natural hairline.
• Higher Density – Better control makes it possible to achieve denser results in smaller areas.
• Minimal Trauma – No need for channel creation, reducing bleeding and healing time.
• Faster Recovery – Patients often heal more quickly compared to traditional FUE.
• Natural Results – Follicles are implanted at the right angle and direction, blending seamlessly with existing hair.

🔹 Recovery & Results

• Scabs and redness disappear within 7–10 days.
• Hair shedding (shock loss) may occur during the first month.
• Visible regrowth starts around 3–4 months, with final results achieved in 12 months.

🔹 Why Choose DHI in Turkey?

• Turkish clinics are pioneers in large-scale DHI procedures, handling thousands of cases annually.
• Advanced tools and experienced surgeons make Turkey one of the most affordable places to get DHI compared to Europe or the US.
• Many clinics offer all-inclusive medical tourism packages (surgery, hotel, airport transfers, PRP treatment, and aftercare).
