About the procedure

“I had a great experience with Asthetica. From the first phone call, they just made everything easy. It was hassle-free and it was clear they were well experienced. My hair transplant went perfectly – really, really happy with the results.”

Justin, Sydney, Australia

Hair loss is a common problem that affects many people – of both sexes and all ages.

The causes of hair loss can range from a simple vitamin deficiency (which is often temporary) or stress, to more complex matters, such as genetic or hormone-related issues and other underlying health conditions. In most cases, hair loss can be effectively (and permanently) treated through DHI hair replacement surgery.

What is a DHI hair transplant?

DHI (direct hair implantation) is the most innovative and advanced hair extraction and implantation technique, offering natural results and a faster healing process. Offering a permanent and natural hair restoration solution, the DHI method involves the extraction of healthy hair follicles from the donor area, followed by the implantation of those hair follicles into the recipient area which lacks hair.

DHI is considered one of the world’s most effective hair loss treatments and can be applied to areas such as the crown, hairline, beard, moustache and eyebrows.

Remember, this is not a wig or anything fake or false; it is your hair – just redistributed to give you a permanent, natural solution. So, the only thing you need to ask yourself is – why wait?

What to expect with an Asthetica hair transplant

Many of our clients have said the main reason they opt for a hair transplant abroad is the prohibitive cost of the procedure in their home country (UK and Australia). We understand that, and that’s we have spent years sourcing the best hair transplant surgeons overseas.

As the world leader in hair transplant procedures, Turkey is the best location for a first-class hair transplant experience. We have partnered with leading surgeons and hospitals in Istanbul and offer all-inclusive packages for our clients. Read our 5 reasons why everyone is choosing Turkey for cosmetic surgery.

  • Leading hair transplant surgeons. Known for its reputation as the global leader in hair transplants, Turkey’s cosmetic surgeons have exceptional skills and extensive qualifications and experience. To become a surgeon in Turkey you must undertake years of study and training and become board-certified. It is a similar process to the UK.  Meet our surgeons.
  • Save 30% to 50%. Not only will you have access to the best surgeons in the business, you’ll also save up to 50% on your procedure compared to the UK or Australia. We package your procedure with a luxury holiday experience. A dedicated Client Consultant will arrange your return flights to Istanbul, accommodation, hospital bookings and more. And you’ll still save money rather than having the procedure at home!
  • All-inclusive, personalised packages. Return flights to Istanbul, 4* or 5 accommodation, private transfers to your hotel and appointments, all hospital and surgery fees and a comprehensive aftercare plan are included in all our packages. We can customise packages to suit your needs. You can even bring along friends or family and arrange excursions and tours – simply let us know!

Benefits of a DHI hair transplant

One of the advantages of the DHI hair transplant procedure is that it gives the surgeon full control over the angle, depth, and placement of the hair. The final result is a completely natural look. The common result of these two procedures is that the full results begin to appear twelve months after the treatment.

DHI has a quicker recovery period and can achieve more hair thickness than the FUE hair transplant technique. However, the FUE method is ideal for covering large regions of the scalp.

So which is better, a DHI hair transplant or a FUE hair transplant? Check out our quick guide!

DHI hair transplant before and after results

FAQs

In most cases, DHI hair transplants are permanent and will last a lifetime.

Once the healing process is complete, hair will continuously sprout from the new roots.

However, in some cases, over the course of several years new hair growth may gradually slow, so additional ‘touch up’ surgery may be required.

A DHI hair transplant is a cutting-edge surgical procedure which involves the immediate transplantation of healthy hair follicles from an area of the body with high hair density (the donor area) to an area with thin, balding or no hair (the recipient area).

DHI stands for Direct Hair Implantation. This method differs from other hair transplant techniques in the way that the grafts are implemented. Using state-of-the-art technology, this innovative technique allows the grafts to be inserted in a single step, without the need to open any channels prior to implantation.

The procedure is minimally-invasive, less painful and results in minimal (if any) scarring compared with other techniques.

Unlike other hair transplant methods which require the surgeon to manually open channels (slits) in your skin (most often the scalp) before implanting the hair follicles, the DHI technique works by transplanting the hair follicles (or grafts) in one single step.

This is done using a state-of-the-art Choi implant tool (or pen) with a hollow needle.

DHI hair treatment involves the following key steps:

  • Donor & Recipient Area Marking: Your surgeon will mark the donor area(s) and draw out your new hairline (the recipient area).
  • Anaesthesia: Your surgeon will apply local anaesthetic to both the donor area and recipient area. As a result, you won’t feel either the harvesting or the implantation.
  • Harvesting / Extraction: The DHI technique does not require your hair to be shaved and the procedure is minimally invasive. The surgeon will extract the hair follicles (grafts) one by one from the donor area (usually the back of your head where the hair tends to be thickest).
  • Implantation: The hair follicles (grafts) are then individually inserted into the Choi pen. This device allows the follicles to be directly implanted by pressure into the recipient area, without the need to create channels or slits in the skin.

This optimises the survival of the grafts, minimises intrusion, and reduces the healing period.

Your surgeon will carefully determine the angle, direction and depth of hair growth, as well as the spacing between each follicle.

This process takes several hours, as each follicle must be carefully implanted at the correct angle, to achieve a natural-looking result.

The DHI technology for hair transplants is the most advanced in world, allowing for a less invasive surgery, a less painful recovery and a faster healing process.

DHI is the least invasive and the least painful hair transplant technique.

While pain tolerance varies from person to person, generally patients experience very little pain.

The area will be fully anaesthetised during the procedure, so you won’t feel any pain or discomfort. After the procedure, you may experience some discomfort or soreness in the treated area, but you will be given pain relief medication for this.

You may experience some mild itching, swelling and bleeding.

We will check on the implanted grafts following your procedure and advise on how best to care for the area.  You will receive a comprehensive aftercare plan, as well as any required medication and access to registered nurses in the UK and Australia.

Post-surgery, the area may be tender, but you can generally return to work 2 to 5 days later.

2 to 3 weeks after your procedure, your transplanted hair will fall out, which allows for new hair growth and is completely normal.

The results of your hair restoration will be visible in 6 to 9 months post-surgery.

As DHI does not require any incisions, there is no permanent scarring. Temporary scarring is possible, however it is rarely seen and generally disappears within 5 days.

Potential side effects include:

  • scalp pain, itching, and swelling
  • inflammation of hair follicles (folliculitis)
  • bleeding
  • infections
  • crust or pus drainage around the surgical sites
  • loss of sensation around the surgical sites

With Asthetica, DHI hair transplant prices start from just £1350 and are a flat fee, regardless of the number of grafts you may require.

Many operators charge by the number of grafts that you need, which can ultimately lead to the procedure becoming expensive.

Please note, however, pricing will vary depending on your country of origin (which impacts flight costs) and your package inclusions (e.g. additional excursions, extended accommodation stays, etc.).

We offer complete transparency around our pricing and package inclusions, to ensure you are fully informed and comfortable.
