DHI Hair Transplant in Turkey
DHI is an abbreviation for Direct Hair Implantation. It is one of the most common hair transplant techniques worldwide, mainly because it is a recent technique in hair transplantation. DHI Hair Transplant involves implanting hair grafts one after the other directly into a bald area of the head. DHI-patented pen-like tools and a DHI implanter are the two devices used during this procedure.
Depth, direction, and angle are controlled by the DHI implanter and the certified, trained doctors who use the tool. As implantation is done simultaneously, DHI offers a solution for those who do not want the hair in the implantation area to be cut off completely. There is no need for shaving in the DHI hair transplant procedure; your surgeon will trim the donor area.
Having DHI Hair Transplant in Turkey comes with many advantages such as:
- Short recovery time.
- There’s no pain or discomfort during and after the surgery.
- Invisible scars.
- Hair growth is guaranteed.
- Post-treatment care is easy
- The results are natural.
Preparing for a DHI Hair Transplant in Turkey
Like any other surgery, every patient who is about to have a hair transplant in Turkey must prepare for it. Preparation for the DHI hair transplant involves the following:
- Abstaining from Aspirin or any blood thinner meds must be done for at least a week before the procedure day.
- If you are taking any medication, you should inform your hair transplant doctors during your first consultation.
- Patients shouldn’t smoke or drink alcohol 24 hours before and after the surgery.
- You should inform the hair transplant doctor if you have a chronic disease.
How is DHI Hair Transplant Performed In Turkey?
Every patient is unique in their way. Hair transplant doctors at Dr. Vivo Hair Transplant Clinic always make sure that they customize the procedure to suit an individual’s unique needs. But since it is a non-invasive procedure, it is divided into several parts, which are as follows:
- Medical Examination. It is an integral part of the procedure. Conducting medical examinations will help hair transplant doctors know about your health status.
- The surgeon administers local anesthesia. That will help you feel comfortable during the DHI hair transplant procedure. You can always ask your surgeon to give you sedatives, just in case you’re not calm during this phase. This will help you relax.
- Extraction. Your surgeon will extract the hair follicles one by one from the donor area, using a specially designed disposable instrument with a diameter of 1mm or less.
- Implementation. The extracted hair follicles are then implanted directly into the recipient area using an implant tool. No holes or slits are created prior to implantation with the DHI hair transplant procedure.
- Post-op. A day after the surgery, you will have to return to the clinic for a quick review. Your surgeon will most likely give you a few instructions that you should carefully follow to make the recovery process flawless.
DHI Hair Transplant Recovery Timeline
Considering that DHI hair transplant is a minimally invasive procedure, the recovery period is short and fast.
Donor Area: Expect the donor area to be wholly healed three days post-surgery. But the re-growing of hair in that same area will be visible after ten days.
Recipient Area: It takes between 3 and 7 days for the recipient area to heal completely.
You can resume your regular workout routine seven days after the surgery.
DHI Hair Transplant Cost in Turkey
Compared to clinics in countries like the UK, the US, Canada, and Germany, the cost of having a hair transplant in Turkey is relatively low. But this doesn’t necessarily mean that the quality of the procedure is compromised. Turkey has a low standard of living than the above countries, which means that services such as health are inexpensive.
International patients who travel to Turkey for a hair transplant procedure can save 60% to 70% of the amount they would have spent in their home countries. At Dr. Vivo Hair Transplant Clinic, we offer special packages – that include transportation, treatment costs, accommodation, etc. – to international patients to relieve them of the hassle of feeling like a foreigner.
