DHI Hair Transplant: Direct Hair Implantation in Chennai

What Is DHI?

DHI (Direct Hair Implantation) is a hair transplant implantation technique in which extracted follicles are placed directly into the scalp using a specialized implanter pen.

DHI vs FUE

It is important to understand:

  • FUE refers to the method of extracting follicles.

In many cases, follicles are extracted using FUE and implanted using DHI.

  • Less handling of grafts
  • Useful for hairline refinement
  • May require less shaving in some cases

Limitations

  • Longer procedure time
  • Higher cost
  • Not necessarily better for every patient
  • Results still depend on surgeon skill
