Dhi vs FUE

Dhi (Direct Hair Implantation) and FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) are two popular hair transplant methods. Dhi extracts and implants hair follicles one by one using a specialized pen, allowing precise placement without making recipient site incisions first. FUE removes follicular units from the donor area and implants them into pre-made recipient sites. Both are done under local anesthesia and require an assessment to decide which suits you best. Doctor-led clinics like Male Hair Transplant and Female Hair Transplant at Alloroots offer customized plans for these treatments.

Key Differences Between Dhi and FUE

Who Is a Candidate for Dhi or FUE?

Good candidates have enough donor hair, typically from the back or sides of the scalp. These methods suit androgenetic alopecia, thinning hair, and hairline recession. A doctor evaluates scalp health, hair density, and goals to recommend the best technique.

Choose Dhi for precise hairline restoration and minimal downtime. FUE suits those needing many grafts or working with a budget. Both can be combined with treatments like PRP or exosome therapy to enhance growth.
