DHI hair transplantation is a modern technique that allows direct transplantation of
hair
follicles with the help of a special medical pen (Choi Pen), without the need for
root
canalization. Thanks to this method, both the hair follicle and the transplantation
point
are processed at the same time, which minimizes the downtime of the hair follicles
and
increases the success rate. It is especially ideal for individuals with sparse hair
because
it provides a more dense and natural placement. It is also frequently preferred in
cases
where the hairline needs to be designed in a detailed and natural way. The healing
process
is fast and there is no scar after the operation.
What are the Advantages of DHI Hair Transplantation?

how
many grafts will be transplanted. The front hairline is designed specifically for the
individual.
- Graft Extraction: Healthy hair follicles are taken from the nape area
with
micro motors.
- Choi Pen Transplantation: The follicles are placed in a special Choi
implanter pen and transplanted directly. Thanks to this pen, no canal is opened during
transplantation.

followed by us.
How Long Does DHI Hair Transplantation Take?

requirement of the person. However, since the DHI method requires detailed and precise work,

may take a little longer than the classical FUE method. After the procedure, the patient is
discharged on the same day and can return to his/her normal life.

FAQ
DHI (Direct Hair Implantation) is a technique that allows hair follicles to be
transplanted directly with a special pen without shaving and opening the canal
