DHI - Direct Hair Implantation Procedure

User Avatar
M. DinMar 19, 2018
Few articles had advocated the merits of the Direct Hair Implantation “DHI” where hair follicles are implanted directly to the thinning area using the so called the DHI Implanter I have underwent one FUE/FUT that was performed by a renowned Turkish Surgeon. I am very happy with the outcome of such process so far On day 1, I knew that one more procedure will be needed for the crown & to increase the frontal density. Is DHI a procedure to consider as final touchup? Donor area is Rich

There is no advantage of performing surgery over two or four consecutive days.  There is probably a disadvantage to you.  Most doctors perform surgery in one day.

It is best to ask your surgeon about post operative care as each doctor has their unique regimen.  Most doctors recommend taking it easy for a few weeks.

It can take 6 to 12 months after surgery to see results.  If you are concerned it is best to contact your doctor.  Some people get shock hair loss.

Photos cannot determine if you would be a good candidate for surgery.  You need an examination and the doctor needs to understand possible future hair loss, your goals, and expectations.
