Medical apparatus resembling a pen that helps the placement of grafts in the DHI method; It is possible to open channels and place roots at the same time. This helps the roots to be planted faster. The DHI hair transplant procedure, performed with local anesthesia, starts with the hair follicles being loosened with a special device and collected one by one. After the grafts are subjected to separation, they are planted in the planting area with a special pen. None of these DHI procedures are painful.

How is Hair Transplantation Performed with the DHI Technique?

Unlike FUE, the DHI technique can be explained as a method where the hair follicles taken from the donor area are transplanted to the area to be transplanted without opening the channel with implanter. The Choi needle, which has a thin and sharp structure, is in the form of a channel. Hair is inserted into the needle by rubbing along this channel.

DHI Technique Stages

• The doctor also transplants the hair follicles at angles of 40-45 degrees, and another point is to make them in accordance with the direction of the previous hair of the person.
• After the angle and direction of the hair follicles placed in the Choi needle are determined, the transplantation is performed with the pushing feature of the needle; In the operation, between 2 and 6 Choi pens and 15-16 Choi tips are used, the pen tips can be in different sizes and this determines the hair follicle and thickness structure of the person.
