    modern hair transplant technique using a specialized implanter pen

    Direct Hair Implantation (DHI) is a modern hair transplant technique where hair follicles are extracted individually from the donor area and then implanted directly into the recipient area using a specialized tool called a Choi Implanter Pen. This method allows for precise control over the depth, angle, and direction of the implanted hair, resulting in a more natural appearance and potentially faster recovery compared to traditional methods.
