Frequently Asked Questions
In FUE, the surgeon first creates recipient channels and then places the grafts. In DHI, the Choi implanter pen creates the channel and implants the graft simultaneously, reducing graft handling time and allowing denser packing without damaging existing hair.
Yes. DHI is particularly suitable for no-shave or partial-shave procedures, as the Choi pen can implant grafts between existing hairs without requiring the recipient area to be shaved.
A single DHI session can typically implant between 2,000 and 5,000 grafts, depending on the patient's donor availability and the size of the area being treated.
DHI generally costs more than standard FUE due to the specialised instrumentation and the additional clinical expertise required. MedProper's all-inclusive package at EUR 1,800 offers exceptional value compared to European pricing.
DHI achieves graft survival rates of approximately 90-95%, owing to the reduced time grafts spend outside the body and the controlled implantation depth provided by the Choi pen.
