Advantages of DHI Technique
First of all, let's talk about the advantages of dhi hair transplantation stated by experts:
- It performs the transplantation in a healthier way by minimizing the time the hair follicles remain outside the tissue.
- The survival rate of hair follicles is high.
- Since the incision area will be smaller, the risk of bleeding is minimized.
- With faster recovery after the operation, the person returns to daily life in a short time.
- In this technique, unshaven hair transplantation is easier.
DHI hair transplantation is one of the most popular methods to treat hair loss. The most distinctive feature of the technique is the Choi pen. Therefore, Choi method is another name used for this technique. Choi pencils have very thin, sharp tips. Thanks to these special pens, hair grooving and hair transplantation occur simultaneously. Experts place the hair follicles one by one. Placement is an extremely delicate process. The doctor implants the hair follicles at an optimal angle of 40-45 degrees. Apart from the angle, another important aspect is the correct direction following the previous hairline.
DHI technique can be explained as a method in which, unlike FUE, hair follicles taken from the donor area are transplanted to the area to be transplanted with an implanter without opening a channel. The Implanter/Choi needle, which has a very thin, cylindrical and sharp structure, is in the shape of a channel and the hair is driven along this channel and placed into the needle.
IS EVERYONE SUITABLE FOR DHI/CHOI HAIR TRANSPLANTATION?
This method was first applied at Kyungpook University in Korea. According to the research results, it was concluded that not every patient is suitable for hair transplantation with the Choi pen. This includes placing thin and curly hair follicles at the tip of the implanter and damaging them during transplantation. In subsequent studies, implanter pens were produced not only for Asian people with thick hair, but also for more general hair types. The implanter pen used today is between 0.64 mm and 1.0 mm. Today, in the light of scientific and technological developments, operations can be performed safely with Choi tips. That's why hair transplantation with Choi tips in specialized clinics provides effective, predictable, natural-looking hair.

DHI TECHNIQUE DISADVANTAGES
In DHI, experts more easily determine the angle and depth of hair follicles with a single movement. This speeds up the recovery time for natural looking hair. Direct hair transplantation generally produces more successful results than other methods.
