FUE vs. DHI: Precision Science for Maximum Density
The difference between a good hair transplant and a great one lies in the details. Understand the technology that drives natural, dense results.
Hair transplantation has evolved from a cosmetic procedure into a precision science. Today, the focus is not just on "covering bald spots" but on achieving maximum graft survival and complete naturalness.
The Technologies Defined
FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) with Sapphire Blades
In standard FUE, channels are opened for the new hair. We use Sapphire blades made from precious gemstone instead of steel.
- Precision: Creates V-shaped micro-channels that mimic the natural direction of hair.
- Healing: Minimal tissue trauma means faster recovery and less scabbing.
- Density: Allows grafts to be placed closer together for a fuller look.
DHI (Direct Hair Implantation)
DHI uses a specialized "Choi Pen" to implant hair follicles directly without opening separate channels beforehand.
- No Shaving: Ideal for patients who want to keep their existing hair long (Unshaven transplant).
- Control: Offers absolute control over the angle and depth of each hair.
Which One is Right for You?
There is no single "best" method; there is only the best method for you.
- Choose Sapphire FUE if you need to cover a large area (3000+ grafts) and want maximum density.
- Choose DHI if you are looking for higher density in a smaller specific area or want an unshaven procedure.
The "Painless" Promise
Does it hurt? This is the mos common question. We utilize needle-free anesthesia (pressure injection), which numbs the area without the sting of a needle. Most patients describe the experience as comfortable enough to listen to music or nap.
Technology is our tool, but natural design is our art.
