DHI Glasgow

DHI (Direct Hair Implantation) is a hair transplant technique that is gaining popularity among individuals seeking a natural and permanent solution to hair loss. At Harley Street Hair Transplant Glasgow, we offer the DHI hair transplant procedure to our clients who want to restore their hairline and regain their confidence.


The DHI technique involves extracting individual hair follicles from the donor area (usually the back or sides of the scalp) using a specialised tool called a Choi Implanter Pen. This pen creates a tiny incision in the scalp and implants the hair follicle directly into the balding or thinning area, creating a natural and seamless result.


Unlike other hair transplant techniques that involve creating a recipient area beforehand, DHI allows for the immediate implantation of hair follicles without the need for incisions or cuts. This results in less trauma to the scalp, minimal scarring, and a faster recovery time.



At Harley Street Hair Transplant Glasgow, we use only the latest and most advanced DHI technology to ensure the highest quality results for our clients. Our team of experienced and skilled surgeons and technicians will work with you to design a personalized hair restoration plan that fits your needs and goals.


If you are considering a DHI hair transplant, contact Harley Street Hair Transplant Glasgow today to schedule a consultation. Our friendly and knowledgeable staff will answer any questions you may have and help you take the first step towards regaining your confidence and achieving a fuller head of hair.


Why choose a DHI Hair Transplant?

DHI is an extremely popular hair transplant treatment method here at our Glasgow clinic and for good reason. Here are just some of the reasons why someone might choose a DHI hair transplant:


  • Natural-looking results: DHI hair transplants use a specialized tool called a Choi Implanter Pen to implant individual hair follicles directly into the scalp. This allows for precise control over the angle, depth, and direction of hair growth, resulting in a natural-looking and seamless result.
  • Minimal scarring: Because DHI hair transplants don't require incisions or cuts, there is minimal scarring involved. This means that the healing process is faster and the overall aesthetic appearance of the scalp is improved.
  • Faster recovery time: DHI hair transplants typically have a faster recovery time than other hair restoration techniques. Because there is minimal trauma to the scalp, patients can often return to their normal activities within a few days.
  • No need for shaving the entire head: With DHI hair transplants, the donor area is shaved but the recipient area does not need to be. This allows for a more discreet and natural-looking result.
  • Permanent results: DHI hair transplants offer a permanent solution to hair loss. The transplanted hair follicles are resistant to the hormone that causes hair loss, meaning that the results should last a lifetime.


At Harley Street Hair Transplant Glasgow, we are proud to offer the latest and most advanced DHI hair transplant technology to our clients. Our experienced and skilled team of surgeons and technicians will work with you to design a personalised hair restoration plan that fits your needs and goals, and deliver natural-looking and long-lasting results.


Planning for a Hair Transplant?

Planning for a hair transplant is an important step towards achieving your desired look. Before undergoing the procedure, it is important to consult with a qualified hair transplant surgeon to discuss your expectations, assess your suitability for the procedure, and create a personalised treatment plan. Our surgeons will evaluate your hair loss pattern, hair density, and donor area to determine the number of hair grafts needed and the best technique for your individual needs. Additionally, we will provide you with pre-operative instructions, such as avoiding blood-thinning medication and smoking, and post-operative care instructions to ensure a smooth recovery. It is important to follow these instructions carefully to optimise the success of the hair transplant procedure. With careful planning and the guidance of our skilled hair transplant surgeons, you can achieve natural-looking and long-lasting results from your hair transplant procedure.

How is a DHI hair transplant performed?

A DHI (Direct Hair Implantation) hair transplant is a minimally invasive outpatient procedure that involves several steps. Before the procedure, you will meet with your surgeon to discuss your goals and expectations, and to create a personalised hair restoration plan. On the day of the procedure, you will be given a local anesthetic to numb the scalp and make the procedure more comfortable.


The surgeon will then prepare the donor area by shaving it and extracting individual hair follicles using a specialised tool called a Choi Implanter Pen. The pen creates a tiny incision in the scalp and implants the hair follicle directly into the balding or thinning area, creating a natural and seamless result. This process is repeated until enough hair follicles have been extracted to achieve the desired density.


Once the hair follicles have been extracted, the surgeon will use the Choi Implanter Pen to implant them into the recipient area. The surgeon will carefully place each hair follicle in a precise direction and angle to create a natural-looking result. After the procedure, you will be given instructions on how to care for your scalp and hair, and may experience some swelling, redness, and scabbing in the donor and recipient areas, but this is normal and should subside within a few days.


You will need to avoid strenuous activity and direct sunlight for a few weeks following the procedure to allow the scalp to heal. Overall, a DHI hair transplant is a safe and effective procedure that can deliver natural-looking and long-lasting results. At Harley Street Hair Transplant Glasgow, we use only the latest and most advanced DHI technology to ensure the highest quality results for our clients.

How much does it cost for a DHI hair transplant?

The cost of a DHI (Direct Hair Implantation) hair transplant can vary depending on a variety of factors, including the extent of hair loss, the number of hair follicles required, and the complexity of the procedure. At Harley Street Hair Transplant Glasgow, our DHI hair transplants start from £5000. We offer personalised consultations with our team of experienced surgeons and technicians to determine the best approach for your individual needs and goals.


During the consultation, we will evaluate your scalp and hair and provide a detailed quote for the procedure. We understand that cost is an important consideration for our clients, and we strive to offer competitive pricing while maintaining the highest standards of quality and safety.

What is the difference between DHI and FUE

DHI (Direct Hair Implantation) and FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) are two popular hair transplant techniques used to address hair loss. While both techniques can be effective in restoring hair growth, there are some key differences between them.


DHI involves using a specialized tool called a Choi Implanter Pen to extract and implant individual hair follicles directly into the recipient area of the scalp. The implantation process is done simultaneously with the extraction process, which reduces the time the hair follicles are outside the body and increases the likelihood of their survival. This results in a higher success rate and faster recovery time.


FUE, on the other hand, involves extracting hair follicles one by one from the donor area of the scalp using a small, circular punch tool. The extracted hair follicles are then implanted into the recipient area using a needle or blade. FUE has been a popular choice for many years due to its minimally invasive nature and natural-looking results.


One of the main differences between DHI and FUE is the level of precision. With DHI, the surgeon has greater control over the angle and depth of the implanted hair follicles, which can result in a more natural-looking hairline and better overall results. FUE, on the other hand, can be more time-consuming and may require more skill from the surgeon to achieve optimal results.


Another difference is the scarring. With DHI, scarring is minimal because there is no need for incisions or sutures. In contrast, FUE can leave tiny scars in the donor area where the hair follicles were extracted. However, these scars are typically very small and can be concealed by surrounding hair.


Ultimately, the choice between DHI and FUE will depend on the individual's unique needs and goals. At Harley Street Hair Transplant Glasgow, we offer both DHI and FUE techniques and our experienced team of surgeons and technicians can help determine which option is best for you. We use the latest and most advanced technology to ensure the highest quality results for our clients.

Popular Questions

Got a question for our Glasgow hair transplant team? We’re here to help.


  • How long will it take to see results?

    After a DHI (Direct Hair Implantation) hair transplant, it is normal to experience some shedding of the transplanted hair within the first two weeks. This is a normal part of the hair growth cycle, and it can take several months before you begin to see visible results.


    Most people will start to see some new hair growth within three to four months after the procedure, with full results typically visible within six to twelve months. However, it is important to note that the speed and extent of hair growth can vary from person to person depending on a variety of factors, including age, hair quality, and the extent of the hair loss.

  • How long will it take to recover?

    Recovery time after a DHI (Direct Hair Implantation) hair transplant can vary depending on the individual and the extent of the procedure. However, most people are able to resume their normal activities within a few days to a week after the procedure.


    Immediately after the procedure, you may experience some swelling and discomfort around the scalp area, which can last for a few days. It is important to follow your surgeon's instructions carefully during this time, which may include taking medication to manage any pain or discomfort and avoiding strenuous activities.


    Within the first two weeks after the procedure, it is normal to experience some shedding of the transplanted hair. This is a natural part of the hair growth cycle and should not be a cause for concern.


    After the initial recovery period, most people are able to return to work and normal activities, although you should avoid any activities that could cause trauma to the scalp area. You may need to wait a few weeks before resuming activities such as heavy lifting or exercise.

  • Does DHI cause scarring?

    With DHI (Direct Hair Implantation) hair transplant procedures, scarring is minimal and usually not visible to the naked eye. Unlike other hair transplant methods that require the removal of a strip of scalp, DHI hair transplantation involves the extraction of individual hair follicles and their direct implantation into the recipient area using a specialised tool called a Choi pen.


    This technique results in tiny micro-incisions in the scalp that typically heal quickly and with minimal scarring. The Choi pen allows for precise control and placement of the hair follicles, minimizing trauma to the scalp and reducing the risk of scarring.


    However, it is important to note that everyone's skin is unique and some people may be more prone to scarring than others. Additionally, proper aftercare and following your surgeon's instructions carefully can help to minimize the risk of scarring and promote optimal healing.
