Asli Tarcan Clinic Introduces the Robotic DHI Method for Afro Hair Transplantation
Asli Tarcan is a leader in African American hair transplantation, which requires great skill and precision during the extraction and implantation of grafts to preserve the natural curl pattern and match the direction of hair growth with the surrounding areas. Hair loss in this population can be caused by genetic factors and traction alopecia, which is especially prevalent in women and brought on by wearing tight braids and weaves. The clinic has a long track record of success with this specialized surgery and many positive reviews from patients with different Afro hair types.
This procedure will be available today using robotic technology that limits human error and reduces recovery times.
Robotic DHI is one of the most efficient hair transplant methods. It involves a team of five people working with robotic systems. Specialized Choi pens house the grafts harvested from the donor area on the nape of the neck, simultaneously creating incisions and implanting them into the recipient area.
With this advanced technology, each extracted graft receives a dose of UV light, PRP, and special mesotherapy vitamins. It goes through the machine to ensure optimal sterilization levels and prime the grafts with nutrients that support healing and promote hair growth.
Unlike the follicular unit extraction method, FUE, or even the classic DHI, where a single nurse meticulously implants each hair follicle one by one, the automated system allows two nurses to work simultaneously, one on each side of the head.
The increased speed of the procedure doesn't just mean a more comfortable experience for the patient. Because the medical staff shares the workload, there is no drop in focus or the need for breaks or splitting up the procedure into two sessions, making it much easier for the staff to stay focused and finish the surgery in a single day.
Some other benefits that Robotic DHI Afro hair transplant procedures offer include better survivability and viability of follicles extracted from the donor area, integration with other medical equipment such as a heart rate and pulse oximeter monitor, the option not to shave the recipient area, particularly popular with female patients, and access to a monitor where the patient can monitor the procedure or engage in various forms of entertainment.
'What is the advantage to the patient? Our patient can monitor the operation and the number of grafts transplanted from the fixed screen,' said Tarcan. 'If 5,000 grafts have been transplanted, 5,000 grafts can be viewed on the screen. The patient can see the grafts on the screen and monitor the operation process daily. If we have a bored patient, they can switch to Netflix or YouTube and watch any movie or video they want.'

NHS trusts budget nearly £2million for 'woke' staff events including 'International Pronouns Day' and talks on 'embracing your Afro hair' and 'breaking the rainbow ceiling'
The NHS has allowed trusts to spend almost £2million on 'staff networks' which have hosted a series of ' woke ' events over the past two years, the Mail can reveal. New figures show the health service budgeted more than £1.8million for the internal staff groupings, which are usually linked to race, sexuality, gender, disability or religion. More than 154 NHS Trusts responded to Freedom of Information requests from the TaxPayers' Alliance (TPA) revealing how the networks have hosted hundreds of events between 2022 and 2024. They included a Eurovision Viewing Party at Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust, and an event on 'Embracing Asexuality' at the The Princess Alexandra Hospital NHS Trust in Essex. NHS staff also attended a talk on 'Embracing your Afro/Curly hair' at University College London Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, and another on 'International Pronouns Day' at Barking, Havering and Redbridge University Hospitals NHS Trust. A talk on 'Breaking the Rainbow Ceiling' was held at the Royal United Hospitals Bath NHS Trust, while King's College Hospital NHS Foundation Trust hosted an event on 'pride crafting'. The NHS said many of the events are run at 'no or very low cost', but the TPA said it was 'astonishing' to see staff spending their time at such events instead of focusing on frontline care. It comes after thousands of junior doctors carried out a five-day walkout, after talks between the Government and British Medical Association (BMA) soured over a dispute about pay. The BMA is demanding a 29.2per cent pay rise. More than 1,000 events were held by staff networks between 2022 and 2024, the FOI revealed, at 80 trusts. In total, £1,834,005.6 was provided to the networks in funding, but it is not clear how much was actually spent over the period. Joanna Marchong, investigations campaign manager of the TPA, said: 'Taxpayers will be dismayed to see NHS trusts pouring more money into staff networks year after year, while waiting lists spiral and junior doctors strike over pay. 'With patients on waiting lists, it's astonishing to see staff spending their working hours at Eurovision parties, open mic nights and summer picnics. 'There is a time and a place for staff engagement and with resident doctors walking out and the NHS haemorrhaging money, now isn't the time. Ministers must get a grip and put patients before perks.' Reform UK deputy leader Richard Tice told the Mail: 'Herein lies the problem with our NHS: wasteful spending on pointless woke activities and a bloated middle management, meanwhile frontline services are left underfunded and struggling. 'Reform UK would cut waste and unnecessary management, as well as purposeless DEI initiatives, and pump every penny straight into frontline care where it belongs.' Tory shadow health secretary Stuart Andrew said the figures were 'alarming', adding: 'The first priority of the NHS should be to deliver the best possible outcomes for patients, and taxpayer's cash should be spent on improving that - not splashing hundreds of thousands of pounds on sideshows and distractions. 'The Conservatives - under Kemi Badenoch's leadership - are the only party that are serious about delivering the reform the NHS needs, from our common sense proposals to ban doctors from striking, to pushing for improvements in productivity and innovation.' [must keep] An NHS spokesman said: 'Staff networks can play an important role in retaining staff and reducing absenteeism, improving care and savings costs. 'Many staff events – including ones highlighted here – are run at no or very low cost, but where employers do invest in staff it is important that care is taken to ensure it represents good value for taxpayers' money.' NHS England describes staff networks as 'an important mechanism' to 'help us to shape our organisational culture to create a fairer and inclusive work environments for all'. Many NHS trusts have staff networks representing those who are BAME (Black, Asian, and minority ethnic), LGBT+, women, or who have a particular religion or belief.
