What are the steps involved in a DHI hair transplant Turkey?

Step 1

Local Anaesthesia

A DHI hair transplant in Turkey is a fairly straightforward and non-invasive procedure where your surgeon will put you under local anaesthesia which ensures a painless experience. Next, they will use a motorised punch tool to make incisions, extracting individual hair follicles from the donor site.

Step 2

Mid-Procedure

The donor hair is loaded into the attached hollow needle of our leading-class Choi Pen using a pair of forceps. This needle ranges between 0.6mm and 12mm in diameter to accommodate different sizes of follicular units. The pen features a spring mechanism with an accompanying plunger to allow for easy insertion of grafts into the target sites.

Step 3

Implantation

Your surgeon will then make incisions in the target areas while simultaneously placing the grafts in those areas. This actually makes the process faster than FUE. Not only that, but the surgical pen allows for more precise control throughout the procedure, where your surgeon can adjust the hair grafts' positioning, angling and depth as they go. People often ask "Is DHI better than FUE?" and this is one of the reasons that it is, in a way.

Procedure time

DHI hair transplants usually last 6-8 hours, although this can vary depending on the bald spots to be covered and the total number of grafts required to cover them.

What are the benefits of this procedure?

A generally low risk of damage to the hair follicle since it remains out of the scalp for a significantly shorter time, compared to other methods.

The Choi Pen allows for smaller incisions, which means less bleeding and general discomfort during the process.

Since there's less bleeding, wounds heal noticeably faster than other hair transplant methods.

Your hair implant specialist can exercise better control over the direction, angle, and depth of each follicle implantation, which provides for a noticeably more natural-looking result.

DHI transplants are often considered the best hair transplant in Turkey because of the level of flexibility they offer over the FUE method; after the donor follicles are removed, they can be either stored in a specialised medical-grade solution to enhance its development before being implanted into the target site, or transplanted directly into the bald spots or thinning sites, depending on the patient's needs.

DHI transplants in Turkey are the preferred method for patients who prefer not to have their head shaved prior to the transplantation, thus, helping to preserve their natural or original appearance.

No incisions are required in DHI transplants, as the grafts are implanted directly into the target area.

FAQs about DHI hair transplant in Turkey

What is the average cost of hair transplant in Turkey?

DHI hair transplant Turkey cost can vary depending on the level of anaesthesia required, hotel accommodation, transfer services, medications, operating room cost, etc. so, it's difficult to give a ball park figure. However, even the best hair transplant in Turkey is going to cost you significantly less than, say, what it might in the UK or EU.

Is DHI better than FUE transplants?

We wouldn't go as far as to say that one is better than the other, although it can be, depending on your needs. For instance, DHI is great for achieving higher density and volume in smaller areas - e.g. the hairline or top of the head - while FUE is ideal for candidates with extensive baldness all around.

Which hair transplant method is more expensive, DHI or FUE?

DHI is more expensive simply due to the specialised surgical equipment used.
