Advanced Direct Hair Implantation for Natural Density, Precision Placement & Long-Lasting Results
CHOI (DHI) Hair Transplant in Istanbul at Avicenna Hospital is an advanced hair restoration technique designed to deliver high-density, natural-looking results with minimal downtime. This method uses a specialized implantation tool that allows surgeons to extract and implant hair follicles directly into the scalp without creating prior incisions. Patients choose DHI hair transplant in Turkey for its precision, faster recovery, and ability to achieve a natural hairline with controlled angle, depth, and direction. It is one of the most refined techniques in modern hair transplantation, particularly suitable for patients seeking dense coverage and minimal disruption to existing hair.
🩺 What Is CHOI (DHI) Hair Transplant?
CHOI Direct Hair Implantation, commonly known as DHI, is a specialized hair transplant technique that improves upon traditional follicular extraction methods by combining extraction and implantation into a more controlled and efficient process. Using a Choi implanter pen, individual hair follicles are extracted from the donor area, usually the back of the scalp, and implanted directly into the recipient area without the need for pre-made channels. This technique allows the surgeon to control the angle, depth, and direction of each implanted follicle with exceptional precision. As a result, DHI hair transplant offers a more natural hairline and better density, especially in areas requiring detailed design such as the frontal hairline or temples.
The absence of channel opening reduces trauma to the scalp and supports faster healing. DHI is particularly beneficial for patients who want to maintain existing hair while increasing density, as it allows implantation between natural hair strands without shaving the entire head. The procedure is performed under local anesthesia, ensuring comfort throughout the process. Over time, the transplanted follicles grow naturally, blending seamlessly with existing hair and providing long-lasting results.
