Wondering which hair transplant option is best suited for you? Understanding the different types of hair transplants available can help you make a more informed decision based on your type of hair loss and hair grooming goals. From advanced procedures like Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) and Direct Hair Implantation (DHI), to specialized techniques such as unshaven hair transplants and those tailored for afro hair, there’s a surprising abundance of options to consider. Let’s explore available hair grafting options to help you on your hair restoration journey! 

Here’s a simple explanation of how a hair transplant works: It involves surgically moving healthy hair follicles from one part of the scalp — the donor site, which is typically at the back or sides of the head — to the area where hair is thinning or balding — the treatment area, which can be the crown, hairline, temples, or middle part. Essentially, a hair transplant procedure replaces old hair follicles with new ones, allowing for new hair regrowth in the treatment area.

Based on current data, a hair transplant performed by an experienced surgeon at a reputable hair loss clinic, like Este Medical in Turkey, has an almost 100% success rate.

‍What Is FUE Hair Transplant Option? 

The Follicular Unit Extraction hair transplant method is minimally invasive and involves manually transplanting hair follicles one by one for a natural look and the best long-term results.  

‍Who can have a FUE transplant? Practically anyone experiencing significant hair loss, who has suitable donor area hair, a healthy scalp, and is in good health with reasonable expectations, is a good candidate for a hair transplant. During an FUE hair restoration procedure, each hair follicle is extracted from the donor area and manually implanted into the scalp by hand. 

‍Should I Have DHI Hair Transplant? 

DHI stands for Direct Hair Implantation: The DHI method is essentially a modification of the FUE hair transplant technique. The key difference with DHI hair surgery is the use of a specialized medical device shaped like a pen, often called the Choi pen or implant pen. This device is used to mechanically harvest hair follicles one by one from the donor area on the scalp, and then implant the grafts one by one into the treatment area.

The key difference between DHI Choi pen and FUE lies in the method of extracting and implanting hair follicles during a hair transplant surgery. 

DHI and FUE methods are both highly effective for treating male and female hair loss. Este Medical Group in Turkey offers both procedures at our Istanbul hair loss clinic. 

‍FUE vs. DHI: Which One Is Better? 

The FUE method came before the DHI method, which is still relatively new by comparison. While some experts debate that DHI is better than FUE, there hasn't been extensive clinical research to support the claim. Both FUE and DHI are considered advanced and effective methods of hair extraction and implantation, and both have a high success rate.

‍I Want To Keep My Longer Hair While Having Transplant? 

What motivates someone to choose a long hair or unshaven hair transplant? Some men and women with hair loss prefer to keep their hair transplant surgery discreet, while others might feel uncomfortable with a drastic change to their hairstyle and personal appearance. In these cases, the unshaven U-FUE hair transplant or long hair transplantation method, which involves surgically transplanting hair follicles without shaving the whole scalp or cutting too much hair in the transplant area, can be an ideal option. The U-FUE unshaven hair transplant method is most suitable for men and women with mild to moderate hair loss.  A professional hair loss consultation is advised to determine if this option is feasible based on your type of hair loss and hair loss pattern. 

‍I Need Transplant For Afro Hair 

The Afro-hair transplant method is a specialized transplantation technique designed specifically for individuals of African descent or those with Afro-textured hair. It takes into consideration the unique characteristics of Afro hair, such as its curly or kinky qualities. Techniques used in Afro-hair transplants may include specialized extraction and implantation methods tailored to accommodate the unique properties of Afro hair.
