What types of hair transplant are applied?
The doctors apply the following techniques to perform hair transplant in the United Arab Emirates:
- FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) is a seamless hair transplant when a doctor forms grafts (1-3 hair follicles) one by one and then places them in a special solution. When the necessary number of grafts are prepared, a specialist makes small punctures in the hairless area and implants the grafts there.
- DHI (Direct Hair Implantation) is a subtype of FUE but performed without incisions or punctures. A doctor uses a special instrument called DHI Pen that looks like a usual retractable pen. The grafts are put inside this pen and are placed in the hairless area immediately by pressing a button.
- Robotic hair transplant is a transplant using ARTAS robot. The process is similar to FUE, but all movements are performed by a robot under a doctor's supervision. The robot makes the punctures more precise and is not get tired. So, it is possible to transplant more grafts at once.
The type of hair transplant also affects the cost in the UAE: the cheapest option is FUE, then goes DHI, and robotic operation.
