What is DHI?
The Choi implanter pen — direct implantation without pre-made channels. This is the secret behind the most natural-looking result.
The essence of the DHI method
DHI (Direct Hair Implantation) is an advanced hair transplant technique in which hair follicles are implanted into the recipient area in a single step using a specialized instrument, the Choi Implanter Pen. In traditional methods, channels are opened first and grafts are then placed into them. In DHI, these two steps are combined.
The key advantage is the minimal time grafts spend outside the body. The less time a follicle spends outside the organism, the higher the survival rate.
In addition, the Choi implanter pen allows millimeter-precise control over the angle, direction, and depth of every hair. This is exactly what produces a completely natural look — especially along the hairline.
- No channels are opened — the recipient area stays intact
- Minimal time for grafts outside the body
- Full control over the angle and direction of hair growth
- No scarring in the donor area
- Ideal for female patients — only local shaving is needed
DHI vs FUE — a comparison
| Parameter | DHI | FUE |
|---|---|---|
| Channels opened in advance | No | Yes |
| Graft survival rate | High | High |
| Maximum grafts per session | 4,500 | 5,000+ |
| Full head shave | Not required | Usually |
| Recovery period | 3–4 days | 5–7 days |
| Risk of scarring | Minimal | Minimal |
Why get a hair transplant?
The DHI method — surgical precision, the most natural result
A natural result
The DHI method delivers the most natural possible look. Jewel-like implantation precision makes transplanted hair indistinguishable from your own.
Confidence in yourself
Getting a full head of hair back brings new self-confidence and lets you feel at ease in any situation — at work, in conversation, in life.
The hairstyle you always wanted
Finally bring to life the look you have long dreamed of. Haircuts and styles that once seemed out of reach become reality.
Procedure by day, home by evening
Thanks to the minimally invasive DHI technique, a hair transplant is a same-day procedure. You can return home that very evening.
It really doesn't hurt
The operation is performed under local anesthesia. You will feel no pain during the procedure or after it — only the result.
How does it work?
From consultation to result — four steps
Personal consultation
An online or in-person consultation with the doctor. We assess the type and degree of hair loss, the quality of the donor area, and your hair structure. A personal operation plan is drawn up with the exact graft count and hairline design.
Graft harvesting
Using the FUE technique with specialized micromotors, healthy follicles are extracted one by one from the donor area (back of the head, temples, beard). The procedure leaves no visible scars and does not require a full shave.
Implantation of donor hair
Using the Choi Implanter Pen, each graft is implanted into the recipient area with precise control over depth, angle, and direction. Channel creation and implantation happen in a single step — this improves survival rates and delivers the most natural result.
Patient recovery
Thanks to DHI, recovery is fast: you can return to everyday life within 3–5 days. First signs of growth appear after 2 weeks. Shock loss and active new growth follow at 2–3 months. The final result arrives at 12 months.
