DHI hair transplant — what to ask.
In a hair transplant, donor follicles are extracted and implanted where hair is thinning; some surgeons place them with pen-like implanter devices. “DHI” (direct hair implantation) is the name clinics use for that way of implanting.
Six questions to ask before you book
- 01
Does the surgeon personally carry out the extraction and implantation?
- 02
Is the clinic CQC-registered for surgical procedures?
- 03
How many grafts would I need — and what happens to the price if more are needed on the day?
- 04
Could I see unedited healed results of procedures my surgeon performed — a year on, not just fresh?
- 05
Might I need a second procedure later for density?
- 06
Could you tell me who would treat me, and are they on the GMC, NMC or GDC register?
