Micro Sapphire DHI is the world’s most modern hair transplant technique.
Medical tourism has been on the rise in the past decade, particularly when it comes to hair transplants in Turkey. The country has gained a reputation as the most popular destination for hair restoration procedures, and for a good reason – clinics like Asli Tarcan have renowned expert surgeons and highly capable medical staff, all at a fraction of the cost that you find in US and European clinics.
There is no other way to address genetic hair loss than surgery, and the DHI, direct hair implantation, method is the most popular option and a specialty of this clinic, which is why so many patients from all over the world choose Asli Tarcan.
We will go over all the important details about this surgery and how it compares to another common option, FUE, the costs involved, and what you can expect in terms of results.
With DHI, the surgeon will evaluate the extent of your hair loss and decide how many grafts they will need to take from a suitable donor area. Then, they will collect the grafts and use a specialized Choi implanter pen to create tiny holes in the scalp of the recipient area and implant hairs from the donor area.
It is a minimally invasive procedure that you can recover from quickly. The whole process, from the initial consultation to getting on your flight back home, takes four days at the Asli Tarcan clinic. It also has a very high success rate compared to other hair transplant methods – over 90% – so you can rest assured that you will be going home satisfied.
The traditional FUE hair transplant involves taking a hair graft from the donor area of the scalp, each one containing approximately 2–4 hairs, and then making an incision in the recipient area before implanting it. The number of grafts needed will vary based on the type of hair loss and the size of the affected area, but it’s usually around 2500 to 3000 per session.
The DHI approach is similar, but the implant process itself is a bit different – using a Choi Pen, the surgeon can simultaneously create a micro-incision and implant the graft.
This procedure is faster and allows for less recovery time than other methods because of the small incisions and minimal graft trauma, which makes it a good choice for extensive balding. The main advantage of DHI is that you get more natural-looking results because the surgeon can get a better angle for hair placement.
It is also excellent for those with mild baldness, as the DHI hair transplant is the best option if you want a procedure that doesn’t require the surgeon to shave your head, so you don’t have to be self-conscious while you wait for weeks for your to grow back, like with other methods.
All in all, you can expect the best results, a natural look, and a quick recovery.
