What is FUE?

This method, which we can also call Follicular Unit Extraction, is the most popular technique of Hair Transplantation.

With this technique, the hair follicles are extracted from the back of the head and from the space between one ear and the other on the back of the head, which is called the donor area. Without harming tissue integrity.After extraction, the follicles are separated into groups of 1, 2, 3 hairs and kept in sterile Petri dishes. The channels where the follicles will be placed are opened using a sapphire-tipped pen, taking into account the patient's hair growth directions and following the planning carried out during the consultation. The important thing at this stage is to open a channel according to the patient's needs. When the channel opening process is completed, the hair follicles are implanted in all channels to ensure naturalness and maximum density. In the FUE method, the number of hair follicles is greater than in other methods, so it is the most preferred method in patients with large bald areas. Recovery takes place in a short time after surgery with the FUE technique and the patient can resume their daily activities in a short period of time.

What is DHI?

This method, which we can also call choi pen technique or Direct Hair Transplantation, is the most preferred due to the advantages it offers over other methods. In this method, the follicles are extracted homogeneously from the nape of the neck and from the space between one ear and the other, which is determined as the donor area, without harming tissue integrity. The follicles are separated into groups of 1, 2, 3 hairs and kept in sterile Petri dishes... In the DHI method, a medical device similar to a pen allows us to perform the opening of the canal and the implantation of the follicle in one single step. The transplant is carried out taking into account the structure of the head, the patient's needs and the direction of hair growth. One of the biggest advantages that differentiates the DHI technique from other techniques is the absence of a channel incision.

What is Combined Hair Transplantation or TCC?

We can say that the combined method combines the FUE and DHI techniques. The main purpose of this method is to completely eliminate the risk of crushing and breaking the transplanted follicles. Thanks to this method, great efficiency can be obtained in patients who are not suitable for DHI or FUE transplantation. In this method, the follicles are extracted from the back of the neck and from the space between one ear and the other, which is determined as the donor area, without harming tissue integrity. Follicles are separated into groups of 1, 2, 3 hairs and kept in sterile Petri dishes. First, the opening of the canals is performed with a sapphire tip pen, then the implant is performed with the DHI pen, where the follicle is placed inside the channel with zero damage, taking into account hair growth directions to get a natural result with hair transplant. This method can be briefly called the combined method of DHI + FUE or TCC techniques.
