What is DHI
Direct Hair Implantation (DHI) is the most popular technique in all hair transplantation procedures. This revolutionized the hair transplantation industry because it is the most effective cure. In this method, the donor is the patient himself.
Hair follicles of the patient are taken with the help of Choii pen. This pen has very thin needles on its end. With the help of these needles, hair follicles are collected without any harm. Collected follicles are stored in a special solution. After that, implantation begins on the specified bald area.
Advantages of DHI
- First and foremost, the biggest advantage of DHI is it provides a more natural result. This is caused by different reasons. The first reason is the usage of your own hair. DHI uses hair gathered from your crowded spots and places them on to your sparse/bald spots. Secondly, your doctor can place your hair in whatever frequency you want.In average, it provides twice the density compared to other methods. Other techniques do not provide this because the hair is not placed one-by-one.On the other hand, your hair can be placed accordıng to the natural direction of the hair. In conclusion, your hair will look as if it was always there.Another advantage of DHI is there is no shaving needed. So it does not damage existing hair. In other words, by protecting your hair, empty areas are tightened, and a natural appearance is obtained.
Another important advantage of this method is that it does not require stitches. In this sense, other techniques may create contusion and incisions. However, in DHI, the operating area is not damaged because the Choii pen is a very thin needle. So, patients don’t feel any pain, either.
Also, recovery time is even faster compared to other techniques. You can return to your daily life shortly after the procedure because wounds and crusting are less experienced.
Another advantage of DHI is that it has a higher permanence rate. Your hair strands are examined in the AI environment. The structure, quality and loss potential of your hair are calculated. From this data, a hair analysis is created. By looking into this analysis, only useful hair follicles are used in the transplant. This ensures the permanence of the procedure.
