First things first: DHI may sound like fancy medical terminology, but it's self-explanatory because DHI is short for Direct Hair Implantation. This technique is the first choice for many people who want to restore their hair, and since you are reading this article, we are pretty sure you are one of those people!
Hair loss is a problem that everyone in the world suffers from. There are many factors that directly affect this problem: stress, lack of sleep, an unbalanced lifestyle, unhealthy diet, and it can also be genetic! The reasons are many, but the result is one. Baldness.
DHI hair transplant technique is undoubtedly your solution to restore your hair and self-confidence. Read on to learn everything you need to know about it and how we at Hair Time Turkey are the best at everything DHI!
We all reached a point that we know what hair transplant means, but the actual question here is “What is DHI Hair Transplant?” DHI or direct hair implantation is the most advanced technique in the field of hair transplantation. In this method, hair follicles are taken one by one from the donor area in the body and implanted into the recipient area without the need to prepare the area or open channels to implant the follicles.
DHI is the newer version of FUE because in FUE, follicles are implanted over open wounds to treat the area suffering from baldness. However, in DHI, an advanced pen-shaped tool is used to get the job done.
It is a minimally invasive procedure that requires a shorter recovery time and provides better results. In Hair Time Turkey we have a team of professionals who are experts and provide the comfort and results that the patient is seeking.
In short, the DHI hair transplant procedure is also known as "Unshaved Hair Transplantation". It is a procedure in which all the steps are combined into one or two steps, and the site creation and implantation are done simultaneously.
The DHI method is a procedure that allows the doctor to place the grafts at right angles to the direction of hair growth, which ensures a natural appearance of the hair.
The Choi Implanter Pen is an advanced tool used in DHI hair transplantation that performs the task of extraction and implantation in the recipient area. The Choi Implanter is a pen-like device with a hollow needle attached to a tube and plunger apparatus. During hair transplantation with the Choi Implanter, the physician loads the extracted follicular units into the implantation pen.
Well, according to many people, DHI hair transplantation is the least painful procedure among all other procedures, and since it is performed under local anesthesia, no pain is felt during the hair transplantation, but a slight discomfort may occur after the procedure.
Local anesthesia is injected before the follicles are harvested and after the donor area is shaved. This ensures the patient's comfort during the procedure and they will not feel any pain during the procedure and can even use the phone while the grafts are getting extracted.
As we have already mentioned, DHI hair transplantation is considered the advanced version of FUE hair transplantation due to the advanced medical instruments used during the DHI procedure.
While the extracting part of both procedures is pretty much the same, the difference is in the implantation part. In FUE, the physician prepares the recipient area by manually cutting channels in the scalp before implanting the follicles. In the DHI procedure, the recipient area does not need to be prepared and implantation is done directly with the Choi Implanter Pen,

During the procedure, local anesthesia is applied so that the patient does not feel any pain. Throughout the procedure, the patient can stay awake, watch a movie, listen to music or just relax!
After the local anesthesia, the doctor begins to remove the follicles from the donor area with the Choi Implanter Pen and then implants them into the recipient area. It is as simple as this. The doctor covers the area with antibiotics and bandages to protect it from infection.
DHI hair transplantation and FUE hair transplantation take about 8 hours. No scars remain after the procedure, there is no discomfort after the procedure and you can resume your normal life the next day.
It is said that patience is bitter, but its fruit is sweet. And patience is an important element for the success of the DHI hair transplant procedure. You will notice the growth of the new hair within the first three months, later the full result will be seen within 12 months, and the hair growth will last a lifetime.
After the procedure you will receive a lifetime guarantee certificate with the number of grafts implanted.
Before removing the follicles, the surgeon selects the healthiest and strongest hair follicles so that they can quickly and easily implant in the implanted area.
Our surgeon's experience in handling the follicles during implantation guarantees that each follicle is implanted at a specific depth and angle that will give the patient the best natural look when the result is visible.
The follicles in the donor area have a different structure than the follicles in the front upper area of the scalp. They're healthier, stronger and aren't affected by changes in body hormones that affect hair. So when we take these grafts and implant them in the desired location, they grow the same as in the back area.
After the procedure and within three weeks, you may notice hair loss, which is completely normal. After three to four months you will notice the growth of hair and the first steps to a healthy appearance!
With DHI hair transplantation, people are encouraged to solve the problem of hair loss forever with this technique. But still, some obstacles may stand in the way, such as the location, the stay and the subtotal of the whole journey!
