Direct Hair Implantation (DHI) is widely considered the most advanced hair restoration technique available today. At SF Fusion Wellness in Bhubaneswar, we utilize the patented Choi Implanter Pen technology. This allows us to implant hair follicles directly into the scalp without creating reception holes or slits beforehand.
Because there are no scalpel incisions or pre-made channels, DHI offers absolute control over the angle, depth, and direction of every single hair strand. The result is a hairline that is indistinguishable from nature and healing that happens in record time.
| Feature | DHI (Choi Implanter) | Standard FUE |
|---|---|---|
| Implantation | Direct Injection (No Slits) | Forceps into pre-made slits |
| Density | Maximum (60-80 grafts/cm²) | Standard (40-50 grafts/cm²) |
| Bleeding | Minimal / None | Minor bleeding |
| Healing | Rapid (24-48 Hours) | Standard (3-5 Days) |
The Choi Pen is a precision tool resembling a hollow needle. It protects the hair follicle during insertion, ensuring:
The pen protects the delicate root bulb from being crushed by forceps, leading to higher survival rates.
We can precisely match the 45-degree exit angle of your natural hair, avoiding the "doll head" look.
1. Extraction: Follicles are extracted one by one from the donor area (usually the back of the head).
2. Loading: Technicians carefully load each follicle into the hollow needle of the Choi Pen.
3. Implantation: The surgeon presses the plunger to inject the graft directly into the scalp at the exact depth needed.
4. No Bandage: In many cases, patients do not even require a bandage after the procedure.
DHI is excellent for almost everyone, but it is the top choice for:
High Density Requirements: Filling gaps between existing hair.
Hairline Redesign: Where precision is critical for a natural look.
Unshaven Transplants: DHI can often be performed without shaving the recipient area.

DHI is an advanced form of FUE. While standard FUE is excellent, DHI offers higher precision and density because of the Choi Implanter Pen, making it superior for hairline detailing.
Yes, DHI is a meticulous process requiring graft-by-graft loading into the pen. It may take slightly longer than standard FUE, but the recovery is faster.
Yes! DHI is the preferred method for female hair transplants because, in many cases, we do not need to shave the entire head, only a small donor window.
Because the Choi Pen protects the follicle during implantation, graft survival rates in DHI are consistently above 95-98%.
