DHI Hair Transplant in Hair Transplantation: What is DHI Technique?

DHI, which stands for DIRECT HAIR IMPLANTATION, is a new technique in hair transplantation through which hair follicles are implanted one by one directly to the rare or bald area of the head that needs to be covered. Each hair follicle is planted in a specific direction, angle, and depth so that the patients will have totally natural outlook and maximum viability and visibility with no scars at all. The implanted hairs continue to grow throughout a patient’s lifetime and never fall out.

Compared to the outdated FUT (Follicular Unit Transplant) and FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) methods, the DHI hair transplant technique has many benefits and superiorities. First and foremost, procedures are done by a DHI certified doctor, not technicians and nurses. Secondly, less donor hairs are needed. This is important because only the surviving hair is worth paying for. Through the operation no scalpels and stitches applied and for this reason there will be virtually no scarring. Plus, the recovery time will be so short such that you will be able return to work the following day of the operation.

DHI Hair Transplant Technique

In DHI hair transplant technique, hair follicles taken from the donor area are transported to the area to be transplanted with a tool called implanter without opening the channel. Thus, the steps of opening the channel and transferring the collected hair follicles to the opened channels are done in a single step. This is the most important feature of the DHI technique that differs from the FUE technique.

It has a thin and cylindrical tip in the implanter shape. It is quite sharp. This Choi needle is shaped like a channel. Hair follicles are placed along the canal and placed on the needle. The reason why DHI technique is called as Choi method is due to this feature of the needle.

 

 

How is DHI Hair Transplant Performed?

DHI technique is similar to other hair transplant techniques before and after the operation. However, recovery after DHI hair transplant is faster compared to the other techniques.

 

Preparation for DHI Hair Transplant

Pre-DHI hair transplant operation and preparation stages are the same as standard hair transplant application. Before the hair transplant, the doctor and the patient talk about the operation. Necessary tests are done. If the patient’s health condition is suitable for hair transplant, the planning phase is started.

The patient’s hair analysis and anterior hairline design are done. When designing the anterior hairline, the patient’s face shape and gender are taken into account. After the hair design, the hair transplant operation is started.

 

DHI Hair Transplant Stages

DHI hair transplant is carried out in two stages. These;

Stage 1: Collection of Hair Roots

Stage 2: Transplanting Collected Hair Roots

 

1. Collection of Hair Roots

Hair follicles in the donor area are collected one by one with a special tool. It also contains a piece of scalp in the grafts collected. Since there is no channel opening in DHI technique, after the hair follicles are collected, the transplant phase of the hair follicles is started.

 

2. Transplanting Hair Roots

In hair transplant with CHOI implanter pen, hair follicles are placed one by one in this pen. This process should be done very carefully. The placed hair follicles are transplanted to the bold areas at an appropriate angle. Proper angle and proper direction are very important when placing hair follicles. The angle and direction should be set according to the transplanted region. The follicle with the correct angle and direction is transferred to the determined area using the pushing feature of the needle.

The most important stage in DHI hair transplant is the transplant stage of the hair follicles.

The empty pens are filled with other hair follicles to be transplanted.

Painless DHI Hair Transplant

Local anesthesia is applied in DHI hair transplant. The application time of anesthesia is very short. The pain of local anesthesia needles is prevented by applying sedation before anesthesia. Thanks to sedation and local anesthesia, no pain is felt during the operation.

 

Naturalness in DHI Hair Transplant

There are factors that affect the naturalness of DHI hair transplant. In order for the results of hair transplant to be as desired by the patient, great attention should be paid to these factors.

The factor that most affects naturalness in the DHI technique is the front hairline design. It is essential to design the front hairline naturally and in accordance with the patient’s face shape. The front hair area is the most important area in hair transplant, where the channels should be opened at narrower angles and more frequent transplants should be done. The DHI technique also makes it easy to adjust the angles and frequency of the channels. As you approach the forehead, the channels should be opened at narrower angles. With the hair transplant pen, this is much easier compared to other techniques.

The quality of the donor region is one of the important factors that affect DHI hair transplant successfully. In the DHI technique, the nape region (the area behind the two ears) is generally preferred as the donor area. In hair transplant, hair follicles are taken from one’s own body. A sparse donor site cannot produce the expected result for a large hairless area. In this case, different parts of the patient’s body can be used as a donor area, like the chin, the chest, the shoulders, the arms or the legs.

Waiting time of the graft is one of the factors that increase or decrease the success in the operation. DHI is a very advantageous technique in this regard. In hair transplant, hair follicles collected from the donor area are kept until the channels are opened. During this waiting, hair follicles lose their vitality. In DHI hair transplant, since the hair follicles are not waiting, they are transplanted without losing their vitality. In this way, the success rate in the operation increases.
