Hair Restoration

FUE vs DHI

Both move living grafts, one by one. What differs is how they are seated — coverage across a pattern, or a front line fine enough to vanish. Photographs of the donor and the hairline. The protocol is written before you fly.

The protocols

Two ways to seat a graft.

Harvest is shared. Placement is not. Density, or a line that must disappear, decides which hand finishes the work.

FUE

Sites are opened, then filled. Extraction and placement as two steps. Chosen when the pattern needs coverage, not only a fine front line.

DHI

An implanter seats each graft in one motion. No separate site-making. Chosen when control of the front line is the brief.

The choice

Written before you fly.

Not by trend. By donor, by the line you will live with, by how many days you can remain in Istanbul. Some patterns ask for coverage. Some ask for a front line that disappears. That reading happens before you travel. Either protocol is carried out in accredited hospital operating rooms.

Consultation

Begin in confidence.

Photographs of the hairline and donor, in confidence. A first reading for the protocol before you travel. The clinic replies in private — within four hours on business days.
