DHI Hair Transplant precision with the Choi pen
How it works

The foundation of a hair transplant

Three concepts underpin everything we do, the follicle as building block, where it is taken from and where it is planted.

Grafts the foundation of a hair transplant

A graft is a very small unit consisting of 1-4 hair strands from the same follicle. Each graft is often less than 1 mm and works as a natural building block in a hair transplant. Thanks to their small size the skin heals quickly, and when the grafts are placed with care they create a natural density in hair, beard, eyebrows or scars.

Donor area where is the hair taken from?

The donor area is where the follicles are harvested, usually at the back or the sides of the head. Here the hair grows naturally strong and is rarely affected by hereditary hair loss. The follicles taken from here are called donor hair, and they keep growing even after they have been moved to a new area.

Recipient area the area we fill with hair

The recipient area is the place to be filled with hair. It can be the hairline, the temples, the crown, the top of the head, the beard, the eyebrows or over a scar. Here each graft is placed with care so that the hair grows in the right direction and blends naturally with your existing hair.

Techniques and treatment

FUE, DHI and PRP working together

We combine two established transplant techniques with PRP treatment, four PRP rounds are always included to strengthen healing and result.

The FUE technique

With FUE each follicle (graft) is extracted and planted one at a time. Small round openings are made in the skin to place the follicles. This gives a natural growth direction, quick healing and no linear scars. FUE requires the area to be shaved before the treatment.

The DHI technique

With DHI the follicles are inserted directly, without the need to make small openings in the skin. The method gives very high control over angle and density in smaller areas such as hairlines, beard and eyebrows. DHI does not require the area to be shaved before treatment. That makes the method especially popular with people who want as discreet a treatment as possible.

PRP treatment

PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) is taken from your own blood and contains growth factors that strengthen the follicles and speed up healing. Four PRP treatments are included in every hair transplant and contribute to a stronger and more lasting result.

The treatment journey, step by step

How a DHI hair transplant works

Direct Hair Implantation with the Choi pen requires precision. We take you through the process in five clear steps.

  1. 01
    45 min

    Free consultation

    We analyse hair loss, donor area and your goals. DHI is especially well suited if you want extra-high density along the hairline or smaller areas, or if you do not want to shave your entire head before the procedure.

  2. 02
    7 days before

    Preparation

    Written instructions a few days ahead, avoid blood thinners, alcohol and nicotine. Wash your hair the morning of the procedure. No special hair-length requirements since the recipient area is not shaved.

  3. 03
    7-9 hours

    Treatment day

    Only the donor area is shaved to 1-3 mm, and your existing hair covers it. Local anaesthesia. Hair follicles are extracted and inserted directly with the Choi pen without making channels in advance, giving precise control of angle, direction and density. 7-9 hours for 2,000-3,000 grafts.

  4. 04
    Immediately after

    Aftercare & follow-up

    Your first PRP treatment is given immediately after the procedure. The recipient area is not shaved, so the result is discreet from day one. Written aftercare instructions and a 24/7 contact number.

  5. 05
    10-12 months

    Follow-up & result

    Crusts fall after 7-10 days, visible growth at 3-4 months, final result after 10-12 months. Four PRP sessions and three follow-up visits are always included in the package.

Does the recipient area have to be shaved?

No, this is the big advantage of DHI. Only the donor area is shaved to 1-3 mm.

How long does DHI take?

7-9 hours for 2,000-3,000 grafts. Slightly longer than FUE for the same number.

When are the results visible?

Visible growth at 3-4 months. Final result 10-12 months after treatment.

When is DHI the best choice?

  • You do not want to shave your entire head before the procedure
  • You want maximum density on a smaller area (e.g. the hairline)
  • You have slightly more complex requirements for hair direction, DHI gives higher precision
  • You have long hair and want the result to blend in immediately

01What is DHI?
DHI stands for Direct Hair Implantation. Using a Choi pen, hair follicles are implanted directly into the skin without first creating openings.
02How does DHI differ from FUE?
With DHI, extraction and implantation happen directly with the Choi pen, allowing very dense placement and usually no shaving of the recipient area.
03Do I have to shave my hair?
The donor area is shaved to 1-3 mm, but the recipient area usually does NOT need to be shaved.
04What does DHI cost?
Fixed price from €4,750. You receive a binding price at the consultation.
