Enhanced DHI is an advanced version of the DHI (Direct Hair Implantation) technique, designed to offer a high level of precision while the grafts are implanted.
The procedure uses a Choi Implanter Pen with a finer tip, which allows the doctor to work with greater precision during the insertion of the follicles.
The aim is a harmonious distribution of the grafts and a result that is as natural as possible, respecting the direction, angle and density of the existing hair.

Enhanced DHI is carried out in several stages:
The FUE Sapphire technique involves extracting the follicles one by one and then creating the channels in the recipient area with sapphire-tipped instruments.
In DHI the grafts are implanted with a Choi Implanter Pen, allowing precise control during insertion.
Enhanced DHI uses a more advanced version of the DHI system, with a finer Choi Pen tip and an approach geared towards maximum precision during implantation.
| Technique | How the grafts are placed | Main characteristic |
|---|---|---|
| FUE Sapphire | Channels opened with a sapphire blade, then insertion | Suited to large sessions |
| DHI | Direct implantation with the Choi Implanter Pen | Control of direction and angle |
| Enhanced DHI | Direct implantation with a finer-tip Choi Pen | Maximum precision, hairline and density |
The technique is not chosen simply on the basis of the number of grafts: the doctor individually assesses the donor area, the degree of thinning, the quality of the hair and the patient's goals.
The goal is not simply to add hair, but to create a harmonious, proportionate distribution of the grafts while respecting the existing hair as much as possible.
Enhanced DHI can be suitable for different types of hair loss and thinning, but suitability must be assessed by the doctor.
The number of grafts is not set in a standard way for every patient. Based on the photographs and the medical assessment, the doctor considers:
In many cases around 4,000–4,500 grafts may be needed, while some patients need more or fewer.
The priority is always to use the donor area responsibly and to avoid over-extraction.
Every transplant is planned individually. There is no number of grafts or technique that is identical for everyone.
The goal of Enhanced DHI is to combine precision, naturalness and a harmonious distribution of density, respecting the individual characteristics of each patient.
To receive a personalised assessment, simply send us a few clear photographs of the front, profile, top and back of the head. Our doctor can then assess the situation and indicate the most appropriate technique and number of grafts. The price ranges of our packages are on the hair transplant cost in Albania page.
