Direct Hair Implantation (DHI): The Ultimate Hair Restoration Solution

What is Direct Hair Implantation (DHI)?Direct Hair Implantation (DHI) is an advanced hair transplant technique that uses a specialized tool, called a Choi Implanter Pen, to extract and implant hair follicles directly into the scalp. Unlike traditional methods, DHI does not require pre-made incisions, ensuring precise placement, minimal scarring, and natural-looking results. It’s a game-changer for those seeking a fuller head of hair with minimal downtime.

Who Can Benefit from DHI?DHI is ideal for individuals who:

  • Have thinning hair or receding hairlines

  • Want to restore hair density or reshape their hairline

  • Prefer a minimally invasive procedure with no visible scars

  • Have limited donor hair and need precise graft placement

  • Are in good overall health and have realistic expectations

How Does DHI Work?

  1. Consultation & Planning: The surgeon evaluates the patient’s hair loss pattern, donor area, and goals to create a customized treatment plan.

  2. Anesthesia: Local anesthesia is administered to ensure a pain-free experience.

  3. Follicle Extraction: Hair follicles are carefully extracted from the donor area using a micro-punch tool.

  4. Direct Implantation: The Choi Implanter Pen is used to implant the follicles directly into the scalp without pre-made incisions.

  5. Closure & Recovery: The treated areas are cleaned, and post-procedure care instructions are provided.

Advantages of DHI

  • No Pre-Made Incisions: Ensures precise placement and minimal trauma to the scalp.

  • Natural Results: Hair follicles are implanted at the correct angle and density for a natural look.

  • Minimal Scarring: No linear or dot-like scars, making it ideal for short hairstyles.

  • Faster Recovery: Most patients can return to normal activities within a few days.

  • High Graft Survival Rate: The direct implantation technique maximizes graft survival.

Recovery & Aftercare

  • First Few Days: Mild swelling, redness, and scabbing are normal. Avoid touching or scratching the treated areas.

  • 1-2 Weeks: Scabs fall off, and patients can return to light activities.

  • 1-3 Months: Transplanted hair may shed temporarily, but new growth begins.

  • 6-12 Months: Full results become visible, with natural-looking hair density and coverage.
