The FUE method has been used in hair transplantation for over 20 years. The FUE method is the most accepted and used method worldwide, providing the best results.
DHI (pen technique) is not a hair transplantation method; it combines the channel creation and transplantation processes of the FUE method with a pen-shaped instrument called a “choi pen.” Sapphire is a channel creation technique included in the FUE method. When choosing between these two techniques, consideration is given to hair structure, baldness, scalp type, allergies, and the desire for a shaved or unshaved transplant.
The best choice is to communicate your preference and follow your specialist’s recommendations.
There is only one method for hair transplantation: the FUE method.
In this method, hair follicles (grafts) are extracted individually from the donor area and transplanted into pre-drilled channels. Because the extraction process is carried out individually and there are no incisions in the donor area, the procedure is completed after the transplantation.
Today, the most effective and successful hair transplant method accepted worldwide is the FUE method.
Contrary to popular belief, DHI or SAPPHIRE are not hair transplantation methods, but rather the channel-opening techniques developed within the FUE method.
Based on this information, the preferred method is the FUE method, which is widely accepted in hair transplantation, and the final decision is the technique used for the channel-opening.
When deciding between the DHI and SAPPHIRE techniques, remember that factors such as hair structure, skin hardness, the baldness of the transplanted area, the individual’s allergies, and the desire for a no-shave hair transplant will be key factors. Therefore, you can make the most informed decision and determine the most appropriate technique with the advice of your specialist.
