DHI Hair Transplant

DHI Hair Transplant in Turkey

The DHI hair transplant which means “Direct Hair Transplantation”, is an advanced method that uses an “implanter pen” to transplant hair from one area of the head to another. One of the main reasons why the DHI approach has gained popularity in recent years is because it is a two-step procedure with no incisions. The use of implanter pen devices is the most important aspect that has made hair transplanting possible in just two steps. After the graft has been inserted inside the device, a hole is made in the patient’s skin, and the transplant is then left in place within the skin. This makes it possible to carry out graft transplantation and grooving procedures together.

How is DHI Hair Transplant performed in Turkey?

The application of local anesthesia to the patient is the first step in the DHI hair transplantation process. Therefore, the patient does not experience pain during hair transplantation. As soon as the local anesthesia begins to take effect, the initial basic step of the operation, which is known as the graft collecting stage, will begin. At this stage, the hair follicles are separated from their roots and gathered one at a time using specialized equipment. In DHI hair transplantation, grooving and transplantation are done simultaneously. For this reason, once the grafts have been gathered, the optimal angle for hair transplantation is decided, and the planting part of the procedure is started immediately after that. The grafts that have been gathered are then inserted one at a time into a device that is known as the implanter pen. Small slots are created. Based on the angle, grafts are put in these holes. The operation ends after graft transplantation.

Day of DHI Hair Transplant

  • Your hair should be clean and free of chemicals like gel or spray since the operation is performed directly on the scalp.
  • Bring your ID/passport and if you have any medical conditions, please bring medical reports with you.
  • You can shower on the morning of the operation or the day before.
  • You shouldn’t eat or drink anything 8 hours before the operation.

Recovery after DHI Hair Transplant in Turkey

After a DHI hair transplant, protection of the hair transplant area is crucial. The hair follicles must remain undamaged throughout the procedure to achieve the desired results. As a result, it is essential to provide enough protection for the region against any damage. Driving should be avoided for at least the first six hours after the procedure. You should wear comfortable clothing which will help to prevent friction in the affected area. You should pay close attention to your sleeping position to reduce pillow friction. Pay close attention to how you sleep to lessen the possibility of friction from your pillow.

Physical activity is another factor to keep in mind after a DHI hair transplant. Heavy physical activity should be avoided for two weeks following hair transplantation. Short walks are ideal for physical wellness during this time. Smoking and drinking should be avoided during recovery. Sexual activity should be avoided as well during this time.

It’s important to keep in mind that these costs are estimates and that the exact amount will change based on the desires of each patient, surgeon’s experience, and hospitals.
