What is Long DHI Hair Transplant?
Long DHI Hair Transplant is an advanced hair restoration technique designed for individuals seeking immediate, natural-looking results without shaving their existing hair. This method utilizes the Direct Hair Implantation (DHI) approach, where healthy hair follicles are extracted one by one from the donor area and implanted directly into the thinning or balding regions using a specialized implanter pen. Unlike traditional DHI, the Long DHI technique allows patients to maintain their current hair length, making the procedure virtually undetectable and minimizing downtime.
By preserving the natural hair and scalp appearance throughout the process, Long DHI offers a discreet solution for both men and women, delivering dense, natural growth with minimal discomfort and scarring.
Who is Long DHI Hair Transplant for?
Long DHI Hair Transplant is an excellent choice for individuals seeking a minimally invasive and natural-looking solution to hair loss. This treatment is particularly suitable for:
- Men and women experiencing mild to moderate hair thinning or localized bald patches who desire immediate results without shaving their existing hair.
- Patients who wish to maintain their current hairstyle and avoid the downtime associated with traditional hair transplant methods.
- Individuals with sufficient donor hair at the back or sides of the scalp to ensure optimal graft quality.
By using the Direct Hair Implantation (DHI) technique on longer hair, this method allows for a discreet, comfortable, and effective restoration with minimal disruption to daily life.
How is Long DHI Hair Transplant done?
Long DHI Hair Transplant is an advanced hair restoration technique that allows patients to achieve immediate, natural-looking results without shaving the donor or recipient areas. Using the Direct Hair Implantation (DHI) method, healthy hair follicles are extracted and implanted directly into thinning or balding areas, maintaining the original hair length for a seamless transformation.
-
Personalized Consultation and Planning
The process begins with a detailed consultation where a specialist assesses your scalp, hair quality, and expectations. A customized treatment plan is created, including hairline design and determining the number of grafts needed for optimal density and coverage.
-
Preparation Without Shaving
Unlike traditional methods, Long DHI does not require shaving the donor or recipient areas. The hair is gently cleaned and trimmed only if necessary, preserving the natural length and appearance for an instant, undetectable result post-procedure.
-
Extraction of Long Hair Follicles
Under local anesthesia, the specialist uses a precision micro-motor tool to individually extract healthy hair follicles from the donor area—usually the back or sides of the scalp. Each follicle is carefully removed with its natural length intact, minimizing trauma and preserving quality.
-
Direct Implantation with Choi Implanter Pen
The extracted long hair follicles are loaded into a Choi implanter pen, allowing for precise, direct placement into the recipient area. This technique ensures the correct angle, direction, and depth for each follicle, resulting in a dense, natural-looking hairline and coverage.
-
Immediate Results and Aftercare
Because the transplanted hairs retain their original length, results are visible immediately after the procedure. You will receive comprehensive aftercare instructions to promote healing and maximize graft survival. Follow-up appointments help monitor progress and ensure optimal outcomes.
Recovery and expectation?
The recovery process after a Long DHI (Direct Hair Implantation) hair transplant is a gradual journey, with each stage bringing you closer to natural-looking, permanent hair growth. Understanding what to expect at each phase will help you care for your scalp and optimize your results.
-
Immediate Post-Procedure (First 3–7 Days)
In the initial days following your Long DHI procedure, you may notice mild swelling, redness, or tiny scabs around the implanted follicles. These are normal and typically subside within a week. It is crucial to avoid touching or scratching the treated area and to sleep with your head elevated. Your clinic will provide gentle washing instructions and recommend avoiding strenuous activity.
-
Early Healing Phase (1–3 Weeks)
During this period, scabs will naturally fall off, and any lingering redness will fade. Some patients experience "shock loss", where transplanted hairs temporarily shed—this is a normal part of the process. Continue to follow your specialist’s advice on gentle hair washing and avoid direct sun exposure or swimming pools.
-
Transitional Phase (1–3 Months)
As your scalp continues to heal, new hair growth may not yet be visible. The follicles are establishing themselves beneath the skin. It is normal for the transplanted area to appear similar to pre-surgery during this time. Patience is key—avoid harsh hair products and continue gentle care.
-
Visible Growth Phase (3–6 Months)
New hairs begin to emerge, initially appearing fine and soft. Over the coming months, these hairs will thicken and become more noticeable. You can gradually return to your regular hair care routine, but continue to avoid aggressive styling or chemical treatments.
-
Full Results & Maturation (6–12 Months and Beyond)
By 6 to 12 months post-procedure, most patients see substantial improvements in hair density and coverage. The transplanted hair will continue to mature, blending seamlessly with your natural hair. Regular gentle care and periodic check-ins with your specialist are recommended for optimal long-term results.
