Hair Transplantation with DHI Method
Another hair transplant technique that has become popular recently is DHI hair transplant. Hair transplantation with DHI, also called unshaven hair transplantation, does not require shaving the hair, as the name suggests. The purpose of the DHI hair transplant method is to focus on the openings in the areas where the hair is sparse, without damaging the existing hair, and to perform a more natural and dense hair transplant. In the DHI method, it is aimed not only to give the hair a natural appearance, but also to return the patient to his daily life as soon as possible. Before starting the transplantation process, the area of transplantation and the donor area are analyzed in a computer environment with a high-resolution camera. The purpose of the analysis is to determine the hair type, shedding density, the density of the area to be transplanted and the amount of roots that can be taken. As a result of the analysis, the hair is cut a little and the design of the area of transplantation is made. Then, local anesthesia is applied to the donor area so that the patient does not feel pain. Then, the hair follicles are taken with micro-tips and kept in a solution that will both increase the health of the hair follicles and prevent them from being damaged. After the root removal process from the donor area is completed, local anesthesia is applied to the area where the planting will be made. After the application of anesthesia, the grafts placed on the micro-tips are started to be planted from the front of the designated area to the sparse areas in accordance with the direction and natural structure of the hair. The purpose of the DHI method is to protect the existing hair and plant new hair, and the process is completed without any damage to the existing hair. Since there is no channel opening in this method, the crusting time is very short and in parallel, healing takes place faster. A small amount of crusting is completely shed within a week. Hair loss occurs between two and three weeks. With the third month, the transplanted hair begins to grow slowly, and by the sixth month, most of the hair has grown. After one year, the hair begins to regain its natural appearance and the transplanted roots do not shed again.
