What is DHI Hair Transplant Technique?
DHI hair transplantation technique is also known as Direct Hair Implantation. This method is a technique used for hair transplantation. DHI hair transplantation technique, unlike other traditional hair transplantation methods, is a method in which hair follicles are placed directly in the area to be transplanted. In this way, it is possible to obtain more natural and aesthetic results.
DHI hair transplantation technique is a procedure performed under local anesthesia. First of all, hair follicles are collected from the donor area and then these roots are placed one by one in the recipient area with the help of a special tool. The DHI hair transplant technique is similar to the FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) method, but there are some differences between them. With the DHI hair transplantation technique, a faster planting process is achieved and the recovery period is shorter.
How is DHI Hair Transplant Technique Applied?
DHI hair transplantation technique is performed with a special equipment and cooperation of an experienced team.
The process usually includes the following steps;
Step 1: Preparation of the Donor Area This region is usually the nape region.
Step 2: Collecting Hair Roots Hair follicles are collected one by one from the donor area. This process is carried out with the help of a special tool. Hair follicles are kept in a special solution as soon as they are collected and are protected against external factors.
Step 3: Preparation of the Recipient Area The area to be transplanted is anesthetized by applying local anesthesia. Then the channels to be planted are opened. The opening of these channels ensures the correct placement of the hair follicles to be transplanted.
Step 4: Transplantation of Hair Roots The hair follicles are transplanted one by one to the recipient area with the help of a special tool. At this stage, it is important to plant hair follicles at a right angle and with a natural distribution. In this way, more aesthetic and natural results are obtained.
Step 5: Healing Process The recovery process after DHI hair transplantation technique is usually fast. Care should be taken to protect the hair follicles for a certain period of time after the procedure and the recommended care instructions should be followed. As the transplanted hair is rooted over time, new hair starts to grow.
How Many Hours Does DHI Hair Transplantation Take?
DHI hair transplantation may vary depending on the hair condition of the person and the number of hair follicles to be transplanted. Generally, the DHI hair transplant technique can be completed more quickly compared to other traditional methods. On average, the DHI hair transplant process can take between 4 and 8 hours. However, this period may vary depending on the hair transplant needs of the person, the condition of the donor area and the number of hair follicles to be transplanted. Your hair transplant specialist will make a preliminary assessment to determine the most suitable time for you.

How Many Days Does DHI Heal?
The recovery process after DHI hair transplantation may differ from person to person. Generally, DHI hair transplantation offers a faster recovery process compared to other traditional methods. The healing process includes the settling of the transplanted hair follicles, the healing of the scalp and the natural growth of the hair.
After DHI hair transplantation, slight swelling, redness and tenderness may be seen in the hair transplantation area for the first few days. However, these symptoms usually pass in a short time. There may be crusting in the first week, and these crusts usually fall off on their own within 7-10 days.
The full recovery process after DHI hair transplantation varies depending on the body structure of the person and the location of the hair follicles. Recovery can usually be observed within 2 to 4 weeks. However, a longer time is needed for the hair to fully grow and the results to be visible. It usually takes 6 to 12 months for hair to reach its full potential.
It is important to follow the instructions given by your doctor to speed up the healing process after DHI hair transplantation. During the healing process, it is important to take care of the hair and scalp, to use the recommended care products and to be protected from the sun.
