Techniques

Which Hair Transplant Method Is Right for You?

Three proven techniques. Our surgeons recommend the right approach based on your individual hair loss pattern and goals.

Most Popular

FUE — Follicular Unit Extraction

The global standard for hair transplantation. Individual follicle groups are extracted from the donor area and implanted in the thinning or bald zones.

  • No linear scar — only micro-dot extraction marks
  • Return to work within 3–5 days
  • Suitable for 2,000–6,000+ grafts per session
  • Ideal for scalp, beard and eyebrow transplants
  • Permanent, natural results from month 12
Maximum Precision

DHI — Direct Hair Implantation

Using a Choi implanter pen, follicles are extracted and implanted simultaneously — giving finer control over the angle, direction and depth of every graft.

  • Best for hairline design and high-density zones
  • No pre-made incisions — less scalp trauma
  • Higher graft survival rate vs. standard FUE
  • Unshaved DHI option available
  • Faster healing than standard FUE
Fastest Recovery

Sapphire FUE

An evolution of standard FUE using synthetic sapphire blades to open recipient channels. Smaller incisions mean less trauma, faster healing and denser results.

  • Up to 30% faster recovery vs. standard FUE
  • Micro V-shaped incisions for precise placement
  • Maximum graft survival rate
  • Reduced post-operative redness
  • Standard at EsteCenter — included in all FUE packages

Recovery

What to Expect After Your Hair Transplant

A clear, honest timeline from procedure day to your full result at 12 months.

Days 1–3

Mild redness and crusting around transplanted grafts — completely normal. Most patients fly home on day 3.

Weeks 2–4

Shock loss: transplanted hairs shed temporarily. This is expected — the follicles remain and will regrow.

Months 3–4

New growth begins. Hair is initially fine and thickens progressively from this point.

Months 6–8

Significant visible improvement. Most patients are very pleased with results at this stage.

Month 12

Full final result. Natural hairline, maximum density and permanent growth. Cut, colour and style as normal.

FAQ

Hair Transplant Technique Questions

FUE extracts follicles then implants them in two stages. DHI uses a Choi implanter pen for simultaneous extraction and implantation, giving greater control over angle and depth. DHI is ideal for hairline and high-density work; FUE suits larger areas and higher graft counts.

Yes. Follicles are taken from the donor area — back and sides of the scalp — which are genetically resistant to hair loss. They grow permanently wherever transplanted. You can cut, colour and style them exactly as natural hair.

FUE and DHI leave tiny, dot-like extraction marks in the donor area — invisible with hair of any length. Unlike the older FUT (strip) method, there is no linear scar. Sapphire FUE produces even finer marks.

Yes — one free PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) session is included in all EsteCenter packages, administered the day after surgery. PRP uses growth factors from your own blood to accelerate healing, improve graft survival and stimulate faster new growth.
