First, to understand what the DHI technique is, you need to be familiar with the FUE hair transplantation technique.

Apart from the complex explanations and natural biology lessons that you will see in many topics related to hair transplantation, the FUE hair transplantation technique is simply when the surgeon takes the follicles from the donor areas using the special medical tool for hair transplantation and then preserves these follicles in a special biological liquid so the extracted follicles don’t get damaged, and then the next step comes, which is the surgeon making simple incisions in the area that will be implanted with the follicles using a tool designed to open the channels in the receiving area, then the surgeon, after completing the incisions, takes the follicles from the special fluid and implants them in the incisions until he finishes Putting all the follicles, and then the process ends.

DHI, CHOI Pen, or Direct Hair Implantation is a modern technique of FUE hair transplantation, but the main difference here is the method and tools used. In FUE, the hair transplant surgeon makes incisions in the entire scalp, and follicle units are placed on these incisions. Unlike the previous technique, the DHI hair transplant technique does not require any incisions and a special tool is used that resembles a pen, this tool will shorten a lot of time as it opens the channels and implants the follicles at the same time. Alternatively, an automated hair transplant system can be applied. This system measures the depth and angle required for each hair follicle, which is why it is also known as Robotic Follicular Unit Extraction.
