What is a DHI hair transplant?
Direct Hair Implantation (DHI) is an advanced hair restoration procedure that uses a specialized device known as the Choi implanter pen to place individual follicular units directly into areas affected by hair loss. This approach allows for precise graft placement and personalized hairline design, helping patients achieve natural-looking hair restoration results. Dr. Do utilizes customized treatment planning to determine whether DHI is the most appropriate option for each patient's needs.
What Sets DHI Apart?
- Precision Implantation: DHI utilizes a specialized implanter pen that allows for precise placement of individual follicular units, helping optimize hair density, hairline design, and natural-looking results.
- Minimally Invasive Approach: Because implantation is performed with a specialized tool, DHI is designed to minimize tissue trauma and support a comfortable recovery experience for many patients.
- Personalized Hairline Design: The DHI technique provides greater control over the angle, depth, and direction of implantation, allowing treatment plans to be customized based on each patient's facial features and hair restoration goals.
- Natural-Looking Results: Individual follicular units are strategically placed to replicate natural hair growth patterns and create seamless, natural-looking outcomes.
- Advanced Hair Restoration Technology: DHI builds upon modern FUE principles and advanced implantation techniques to support consistent graft placement and individualized treatment planning.
- Expert Care by Dr. Do: At Aesthetic Hair Restoration, every treatment plan is developed by Dr. Do, a Brown University School of Medicine PLME graduate and double board-certified surgeon with more than 20 years of experience and over 20,000 procedures performed.
Treatment Preparation
- Local anesthesia is administered to help ensure patient comfort throughout the procedure.
Follicular Unit Harvesting
- Healthy follicular units are carefully harvested from the donor area using advanced FUE-based extraction techniques.
Direct Hair Implantation
- Using a specialized implanter pen, individual follicular units are strategically placed into areas affected by thinning or hair loss to support natural-looking density and hairline restoration.
Recovery & Aftercare
- Following the procedure, patients receive detailed post-treatment instructions and ongoing support from the Aesthetic Hair Restoration team to help promote healing and optimize results.
Implantation
- Technicians load follicles into the Choi pen, which the surgeon then uses to implant them into the recipient area with meticulous care.
The optimal frequency and duration of PRP therapy can vary from patient to patient. Treatment plans are typically customized based on the severity of hair thinning, overall scalp health, and desired outcomes. Studies suggest that PRP may help improve hair density, support follicle function, and encourage healthier hair growth when used as part of a personalized hair restoration strategy.
