For the DHI technique the first stage is the same as the initial stage in the FUE technique.  The second and third stage as mentioned above are combined in the DHI technique.  A special pen which is called a Choi implanter simultaneously opens the channel and injects the hair follicle into the scalp.

The method that will used on the patient depends on the results of the consultation with the hair transplant professional.  As such it varies from one patient to the other and depends on a variety of factors including but not limited to the type of baldness, number of grafts, quality of the grafts, the thickness of the graphs, skin elasticity, previous operations, etc.

The FUE technique involves three stages:

In the first stage the graphs are extracted.
In the second stage the channels on the recipient area are opened.
In the third stage the hair graphs are transplanted one by one onto the recipient area.

After the consultation the final decission will be made as every client has baldness and density.

The ARTAS hair transplantation allows grafts to be removed by using a robot.

Some hair transplant clinics or some countries do not have enough experienced or knowledgeable clinicians to extract healthy graphs from the scalp.  This is why the ARTAS robotic hair transplant method was developed.

The robot will only do the first stage of the operation.  The medical team will open the channels and implant the graphs.

The hair transplant operation consists of three (3) stages.  The first stage is extracting the grafts by way of the Micro-FUE method.  The second stage is opening the channels by way of the Sapphire method and the third stage is transplanting the grafts by way of the Selective Implantation Method.

Some hair grafts have one (1) hair, some have two (2) hairs and some have three (3) hairs.  During the extration of the grafts by way of micro FUE method we seperate them. For those grafts which have only one (1) hair we select and use them to create a new hairline.  For the grafts which have either two (2) or three (3) hairs we select and transplant them in the areas behind the hairline.  The reason for this is because we want you to have a more natural look.

The Sapphire hair transplant technique is the latest type of transplant method. It uses a specialized sapphire stone which opens up the channels in a ‘V’ shape.  As a result there is less bleeding during and after the operation compared with the older method which uses normal needles.  In addition because the tip of the needle is ‘V’ shaped the amount of grafts implanted onto the bald area will be greater compared with the old method.  The benefits of using the Sapphire method are that we can open more channels per square centimeter, the healing time on the transplanted area is less, there will be a greater density of hair in the transplanted area after the operation, you will have a more natural look, better results, etc.
