About the DHI technique

DHI is a modern, innovative, and safe technique with which we can perform hair transplant surgeries. DHI has the most natural look and the highest success rate (up to 97%) in the hair transplant industry. This effectiveness is attributed to the fact that all our specialists are internationally certified in the DHI HAIR RESTORATION ACADEMY.

How does the DHI (direct hair implant) technique work?

With the DHI Technique, the follicles are extracted and implanted exclusively by a specialized doctor (certified in the DHI Hair Restoration Academy) from start to finish. The follicles are taken out and placed one by one directly, avoiding damage and manipulation. They are implanted in the area affected by alopecia; And with the help of our specially designed patented implantation tool, each follicle is implanted in a specific direction, angle and depth which guarantees that the implanted hair will grow with a natural look and will never fall off.

THE DOCTOR HAS TOTAL AND COMPLETE CONTROL OVER THE DIRECTION, ANGLE AND DEPTH OF THE IMPLANTED HAIR THAT WILL LEAVE YOU WITH NATURAL RESULTS.

With DHI, there is minimal manipulation of the follicles and it complies with strict protocols to guarantee a short time in which the hair is out of the scalp. This guarantees the viability and success rate of the procedure up to 97%.
No prior holes or incisions are created in the implanted area of the scalp before the hair follicle is implanted.
Our grafts are placed in a special Hypo Thermosol solution, a substance that maintains the vitality of the hair for hours when it is outside of the skin, reduces trauma, and increases the viability rate of the follicles.

What are the advantages of the DHI method?

- Our staff and certified specialists follow strict guidelines and safety protocols in all of our procedures.

- Our effectiveness in implantation viability is up to 97%, which allows us to meet the patient's expectations.

- During the extraction of the follicles, the amount of hairs extracted from the donor area is respected thereby fulfilling an extraction per square centimeter which guarantees an extraction of healthy follicles without damaging the donor area.

- Only the hair follicles that are the most viable to grow for a lifetime are selected and implanted.

- In our DHI procedure there are no scalpels, stitches, scars, and the pain is practically non-existent, as we do not use the antiquated FUT method.

- There is no visual scarring in the donor area or in the implanted area, due to our unique specially designed extraction and implantation tools that we use with a small diameter of 1.0mm or less.

What is the DHI implanter?

The DHI implanter is a tool specially designed for the placement of hair one by one in the affected area. As it has a needle with a 1.0mm slot, which allows us to place the follicle delicately in said space so that when entering the skin it is not damaged or manipulated with forceps, and it is implanted directly about 4 to 5 mm below the skin .

Thanks to our implanter, each follicle is placed directly in the affected area, providing complete control of the direction, depth, and angle of each hair which will give natural looking results.

Full Control
The DHI implanter, having a small size and shape of a pen, provides the doctor with control over each hair follicle, allowing the correct placement of the direction, depth, and angle of each existing hair to ensure the best results.

Small Size
Our implanter has a tip with a diameter equal to or less than 1 mm, being that the instrument used for the extraction is of the same diameter, we ensure that the hole made by the implanter is completely covered by the hair graft, which makes each treatment safe, without the possibility of leaving scars.

Direct implantation of follicles in the affected area
Placing the hair follicle directly in the implanted area without the need for previous holes provides a natural appearance, without cuts or scars.

How fast is the recovery after the DHI procedure?

The procedure is minimally invasive and can return home that same day. With the use of exclusive extraction and implantation tools, there are no unnecessary cuts, scars, or stitching that can disturb the patient.

The first 7 days are considered essential since a series of medications, head washes and care will be carried out to guarantee the best results. Taking these factors into account, our patients return to their daily work routine practically the next day if they wish.

A dri-fit hat may be used from the third day on in order to cover yourself and the remaining scabs in the implanted area are removed one week after surgery.

What can I expect during the DHI procedure?

DHI has simple steps to success:

Welcome: We provide you with a consent form, comfortable clothing for the procedure, vital signs are taken, pictures before and after selected design markings, shaving your hair and washing your scalp.

Extraction: Hair follicles are extracted from the donor area one by one, following strict DHI guidelines and protocols. The tool used for the extraction is a punch with a diameter of 1.0mm or less.

Preservation: The hair follicles are organized according to the amount of hairs in each graft and are kept at a strict and controlled temperature of 3 to 4 degrees Celsius. The grafts are placed in a solution called Hypo Thermosol to preserve them, ensuring less trauma to the follicles and maintaining a high survival rate.

Implantation: Upon reaching the amount of hair follicles agreed on previously, the implantation phase begins. The implantation is personalized by using mathematical calculations depending on the number of hairs per follicular unit, in order to achieve the desired results. The specialized and patented tool used is the implanter which has a diameter of 1.0mm or less.
