GlossaryChoi Implanter (Choi pen)

specialized tool for precise hair follicle placement in transplants

The Choi Implanter, also known as the Choi pen or Choi implanter pen, is a specialized tool used in hair transplantation procedures, particularly in the Direct Hair Implantation (DHI) technique. It allows for the precise placement of hair follicles into the scalp without the need for creating recipient sites beforehand. This method can result in a more natural hair growth pattern and reduced trauma to the scalp.
