DHI or FUE: Choose The One Which Fits Your Needs

DHI techniques and FUE hair transplant techniques have striking similarities. The overall procedure is the same in both techniques; however, there is a small difference in the graft implantation phase. Channel opening is required before graft implantation in the FUE method, which is not applicable to the DHI method. The DHI method combines channel opening and implantation and does them at one step, using a Choi-pen.

So, selecting between DHI and FUE gets complicated. You can make a consideration between DHI and FUE, following the steps below. However, you may still need a consultancy from a hair transplant professional before the final decision.

As a rule of thumb, FUE fits you better if you have a large balding area and DHI is suitable for treating limited baldness and increasing density.

Age, hair loss type and cause, and desired density and hairstyle should be determined before making the decision. If you want highly dense hair, DHI would be a better choice for you. It all starts with expectations of the patient. However shapes during the consultation.
Determine the transplantation sites
If you need a large area covered, FUE would be a better fit, while regional hair transplantation or hairline lowering would better be done by the DHI method.
Shaven or Non-Shaven Hair Transplant
If you have limited hair loss and want to keep your hair long during hair transplant process, you can benefit from the unshaven DHI method. Unshaven hair transplants require shaving only in the donor part and the recipient part (usually the hairline area). The remaining parts of the hair are not shaved. However unshaven method is not recommended by our clinic.
The number of Hair Transplant Sessions
If you want to cover all your baldness areas in a day, FUE would be the best choice for you. However, you may still need a consultancy from a hair transplant professional before the final decision.
