Frequently asked questions
What is DHI hair transplant?
DHI (Direct Hair Implantation) is a sub-technique of FUE where an implanter pen (Choi pen) opens the recipient channel and places the hair follicle in a single motion, instead of opening channels with a blade and implanting separately. Across DoctorVi's verified clinic network, DHI represents 21% of hair restoration procedures, with 1,328 published patient reviews and an average all-inclusive cost of €3,420 for 2,500–3,500 grafts.
DHI's tighter graft packing (55–70 follicles/cm² vs 45–60 for Sapphire FUE) makes it the technique of choice for frontal hairline refinement and high-density facial hair restoration.
When DHI wins
- Frontal hairline — visible-zone density matters more than total area
- Beard transplant — 1,500–2,500 grafts, density per cm² is the primary goal
- Eyebrow restoration — 200–500 grafts, extreme precision needed
- Norwood II–III refinement — moderate hair loss with strong donor density
When FUE wins instead
- Norwood IV–V coverage — DHI tops out around 3,000–3,500 grafts/session
- Tight budget under €2,400 — DHI's implanter pen disposables push the price floor up
- Repair / revision cases — surgeon-led FUE is more flexible between existing hair
DHI cost in Turkey 2026
| Number of grafts | Median all-inclusive | Range |
|---|---|---|
| 1,500–2,500 | €2,640 | €2,100–€3,200 |
| 2,500–3,500 | €3,420 | €2,800–€4,400 |
| 3,500+ (rare) | €4,180 | €3,400–€5,600 |
DHI carries a +€600–€1,200 premium over FUE for the same graft count — the implanter pen disposables, longer surgical time, and higher technician training requirement justify it for the right cases.
Recovery is faster than FUE
- Days 4–6 crusting falls (vs 7–10 for FUE)
- Recipient area looks pink-to-normal sooner
- Underlying hair growth timeline (month 1 shock loss → month 12 final) identical to FUE
