Compare DHI

DHI Global Medical Group pioneered Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) in 2002, replacing the traditional Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT) strip surgery. With continuous advancements, DHI introduced Direct Hair Implantation (DHI) in 2010, refining the process for greater precision, faster healing, and natural results.

Compared to FUE, DHI eliminates the need for pre-made incisions, using a specialised implanter tool for direct follicle placement, ensuring higher graft survival and density.
