What is a DHI hair transplant?
DHI (Direct Hair Implantation) is a hair transplant in which grafts are loaded into a Choi implanter pen and placed directly into the scalp. The pen opens the channel and implants the graft in the same movement, so there is no separate channel-making step.
Needles are chosen to match the thickness of your hair, and each graft is placed at an angle of around 40 to 45 degrees. Because the surrounding hair can stay in place, DHI can be done without shaving, which helps many patients return to daily life more discreetly.
How it works, step by step.
Hairline design
Your doctor examines your donor area and draws the hairline with you.
Local anaesthesia
The areas are numbed. Sedation is optional.
Extraction
Follicles are taken from the donor area with micro punches and kept in a nourishing solution.
Loading the pens
Grafts are loaded into Choi pens with tips matched to your hair thickness.
Implantation
Each graft is placed at about 40 to 45 degrees, channel and placement in one motion.
Is it right for you?
Your doctor confirms suitability from your photos and history. As a guide:
Usually a good fit
- Donor density of about 40 follicles per cm² or more
- Patients who want to keep longer hair (unshaven DHI)
- Hairline work where angle and direction matter
- Realistic expectations about the result
Check first
- Low donor density, which makes any technique harder
- Medical conditions your doctor needs to assess first
- Expecting an identical result for every hair type

How much does a DHI hair transplant cost in Turkey?
DHI packages in Antalya start €1,690 to €6,400. Most DHI cases fall between about €2,400 and €3,300, and larger sessions can reach €6,400. Typical UK prices for DHI are £10,000 to £13,500. Use the calculator above for your estimate.
Do I need to shave my head for DHI?
No. DHI can be done with or without shaving. Unshaven DHI keeps your existing hair, which helps hide the area while it heals.
Is DHI better than FUE?
There is limited research showing that DHI is superior to FUE; both are established techniques. DHI gives fine control over angle and direction and can be done unshaven, while FUE suits larger areas. DHI costs a little more because of the specialised pens and tips.
Who is a good candidate for DHI?
Patients with healthy donor density of about 40 follicles per cm² or more tend to do best. Thicker hair usually gives fuller results. A consultation confirms your suitability.
When can I wash my hair after DHI?
The first wash is usually 24 to 36 hours after the procedure, following your doctor's instructions.
How should I sleep after DHI?
Sleep with your head raised at about 15 degrees for the first nights to reduce swelling.
When can I swim or sunbathe after DHI?
Protect the transplanted area from direct sun, sea water and pool water for 2 to 4 weeks.
