When considering a hair transplant, many patients wonder about the difference between FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) and DHI (Direct Hair Implantation). Both techniques are effective and widely used, but each has its advantages depending on the patient’s needs.
FUE involves extracting individual hair follicles and implanting them into balding areas using small incisions. This technique is ideal for covering larger areas and provides natural results with minimal scarring.
DHI, on the other hand, uses a special implantation pen that allows direct placement of hair follicles without opening channels in advance. This method offers greater control over hair direction and density, making it suitable for detailed areas like the hairline.
A professional consultation helps determine the most appropriate technique based on hair loss level, scalp condition, and desired density.
