At Este Medical, we offer 2 different hair transplant methods: FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) and DHI (Direct Hair Implantation).
An FUE hair transplant involves using a 1-millimetre punch tool to remove individual hair follicles from the donor area through a small incision. These follicles are then placed into tiny incisions in the recipient area. This method requires local anaesthesia and can take up to eight hours to complete, depending on the severity of hair loss or hair thinning. After the transplant, there may be some redness that will usually clear up within seven days. Any swelling around the eyes may last for several days before it subsides.
A DHI hair transplant is an innovative technique that does not require any type of incision to place the follicles in the recipient areas. With the DHI method, hair follicles are extracted from the donor area with a special instrument called Choi Pen. The hair follicles are then immediately inserted into the targeted areas using specialised implanters. This procedure takes only 2-3 hours depending on how much work needs to be done. Unlike FUE, this method doesn't require any local anaesthesia or recovery time after surgery.

Post-procedure scarring is extremely minimal and oftentimes completely invisible.
After an FUE hair transplant, we recommend taking 2-5 days of rest to fully recover from the procedure.

A hair transplant is a procedure which involves transplanting hair from one part of the body, most often the back and sides of the head, to areas of the scalp that are thinning or balding. The process helps to restore hair density and create a more youthful, natural-looking appearance.
Both our FUE and DHI hair transplants are highly beneficial for both men and women experiencing alopecia, patterned baldness, or any other types of hair loss.
An FUE hair transplant works by making tiny incisions to insert hair follicles into the desired area, resulting in increased hair growth. The follicles are extracted from the donor area where the hair is more resistant to balding. Once implanted, the follicles continue to grow to provide fuller hair over time.
A DHI hair transplant works by inserting hair follicles into the targeted area using specialised implanters to restore thick and healthy hair without making incisions. This method ensures the follicles are implanted at the optimal angle and depth for natural-looking results. DHI is a more advanced technique, and offers a faster recovery time due to its precision and absence of cutting.
Aside from the regeneration of strong and healthy growing hair, hair transplants offer many benefits. For the FUE method, benefits include:
For the DHI method, benefits include:
