What is DHI Hair Transplant?
DHI hair transplant (Direct Hair Implantation) is a technique in which grafts are placed directly into the transplant area using a special Choi pen. The DHI method stands out by combining channel opening and graft placement in a single step.
How Is DHI Hair Transplant Performed?
The DHI technique essentially consists of the following steps:
- Grafts are individually extracted from the donor area.
- Grafts are loaded into the Choi pen.
- Channel opening and placement are performed simultaneously with the pen.
- Hair is positioned according to natural angle and direction.
Difference Between DHI and FUE
The most frequently asked question is the DHI FUE difference. Both methods transplant grafts individually; the main difference lies in the placement stage.
| Feature | FUE | DHI |
|---|---|---|
| Channel opening | Separate step | Simultaneous with pen |
| Densification | Suitable | Highly suitable |
| Shaving requirement | Usually required | May be possible with limited shaving |

DHI hair transplant is often preferred for patients who want dense implantation, need densification between existing hair, or require regional transplant planning. Suitability is determined through an initial analysis.
