First of all I want to tell you that the procedure for DHI is similar to that of FUE hair implantation. In order to restore hair growth in balding areas of your head, your surgeon will remove hair follicles from one area of your scalp, usually the back of your head. There is an eventual growth of new hair from these follicles.
In comparison with less sophisticated hair transplant techniques, DHI achieves up to twice the germination rate. In the case of DHI, 90% of implanted hair follicles are guaranteed to grow. I want you to also consider this option.
This technique leverages a proprietary tool, the Choi Implanter Pen, to extract hair follicles from a donor area—typically the back of the scalp—and implant them directly into the recipient area. As a minimally invasive procedure, DHI inflicts less trauma on the scalp, leading to expedited recovery times when compared to conventional hair transplant methods.

Candidates for A DHI Hair Transplant in Turkey
Fortunately, most of our patients can undergo DHI using this advanced technology. Before undergoing a procedure, you should tell your doctor about any underlying health conditions you may have. Following are the factors that make for a good candidate for a DHI hair Transplant.
- Androgenic alopecia: This is the most common type of hair loss and makes for the best candidates for a DHI hair transplant.
- Hair Density: People with good hair density are good candidates for a DHI hair transplant.
- Scalp Laxity: A person with high scalp flexibility will be a better candidate than those who have low scalp flexibility.
- Trauma: Someone who suffers hair loss due to trauma, that causes scarring or burns to the hair follicles.
- Patterned baldness: Both men and women who suffer from patterned baldness are good hair transplant candidates.
- Age: If a person is over the age of 25 years will be a good candidate. Waiting a few years to get a hair transplant would have prevented the need for a second procedure if the hair transplant was done before the age of 25.
- Thinning and patchy Hair: If a person is suffering from thinning or patchy hair would be considered a good candidate for a DHI hair transplant.
- Follicle Density: People with a density of 40 Follicles per square metre are great candidates.
How Does the DHI Hair Transplantation Procedure Work?
The procedure will take place in one of the top-rated chosen clinics in Turkey. With IdealofMeD your DHI hair transplant will be done by professional doctors. Only the best and the latest top-of-the-range technology will be used. The procedure is quick and painless. The use of soft anaesthesia is used to eliminate any discomfort during the procedure. The approximate procedure time is 5 to 6 hours.
An extraction device is first used to extract hair follicles from the donor area. The plantation area is then angled to the most appropriate angle, usually a 40 to a 45-degree angle.
Firstly, the surgeon will apply anaesthesia to numb the area. Each hair follicle will be extracted one by one from a specific area, usually the back of the head, before being implanted. The hair follicles will be implanted into the target area directly after the extraction. The doctor will collect the maximum required amount of hair follicles that are needed for the related areas.
The Ice DHI Method Option
The Ice or frozen method is not a new hair transplant method, but rather a new approach to the way the hair follicles are stored and treated between the harvest and the transplant stage.
The hair is placed in transplanting containers after the surgeon has properly selected the hair and retrieved the follicles from the donor area. The liquid in which the hair is submerged is kept at a very low temperature. The solution that the transplanted hair is kept in contains vitamins, biotin, and antioxidants in addition to helping to improve and preserve their health. The therapy that the hair grafts get during the Ice hair transplant greatly increases their chance of survival.
You could be a candidate for this method. Your IdealofMeD surgeon will discuss this method will you and see if it will be beneficial for you.

- Do not wash your hair for 48 hours after the procedure,
- For the first week after the procedure sleep with your head elevated to minimise swelling. If you do not feel any pressure, then it is alright to sleep normally.

In-depth Understanding of DHI Hair Transplant
Direct Hair Implantation (DHI) represents a cutting-edge approach in the realm of hair transplantation, offering a minimally invasive procedure that yields natural-looking and enduring outcomes. DHI stands apart from conventional methods as it utilizes a patented instrument, the Choi Implanter Pen. This tool provides meticulous control over the angle, direction, and depth of each implanted hair follicle, thereby guaranteeing a high survival rate for the transplanted hairs.
The DHI Hair Transplant process commences with the harvesting of hair follicles from the donor area, usually located at the back of the patient’s head. These follicles are then preserved in a specialized solution at a regulated temperature to sustain their vitality. The subsequent step involves the Choi Implanter Pen. The harvested follicles are loaded into the pen, which then creates tiny incisions and implants the follicles directly into the scalp’s thinning or balding regions. This simultaneous creation of the recipient site and implantation of the hair follicle minimizes the time the follicles remain outside the body, thereby enhancing their survival rate.
The Impact of Technology on DHI Hair Transplant
I think that technology is instrumental in the triumph of the DHI procedure. The Choi Implanter Pen, with its precision control over hair follicle implantation, is a prime example of this.
In addition, breakthroughs in digital imaging and planning software enable a thorough analysis of the patient’s hair loss pattern, allowing the surgeon to craft a personalized and natural-looking hairline.
The use of specialized preservation solutions and controlled environments for the extracted follicles further enhances the high survival rate of the transplanted hairs. These technological advancements, in conjunction with the surgeon’s proficiency and expertise, render DHI Hair Transplant an exceptionally effective remedy for hair loss.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a DHI Hair Transplant Technique
The selection of the right hair transplant technique depends on various factors, including the extent of hair loss, the size of the donor area, the desired results, the patient’s overall health, and budget.
The DHI technique might be the preferred choice for those seeking a minimally invasive procedure with natural-looking results and a quick recovery time.
Speed of Recovery and Long-term Results
My opinion is that one of the notable advantages of DHI Hair Transplant is the swift recovery post-procedure. In contrast to other methods such as Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT), which may necessitate a recovery period of up to two weeks, patients undergoing DHI typically resume their regular activities within a few days. This accelerated recovery is largely attributed to the minimally invasive nature of the DHI procedure, which lessens scalp trauma and subsequent healing time.
DHI Hair Transplant isn’t merely about immediate results; it’s also about the durability of these results. The advanced technique employed in DHI ensures that the transplanted hair follicles are healthy and vigorous, resulting in long-lasting outcomes. A five-year follow-up study on DHI patients revealed that over 94% of the patients retained their hair density and experienced no further hair loss, demonstrating the long-term efficacy of this method
