DHI Needle questions and answers

A DHI implanter needle is the hollow needle of an implanter pen, through which the graft is placed in direct hair implantation (DHI). The graft is loaded into the needle, the needle opens the recipient site, and the pen's spring-loaded plunger releases the graft as the needle withdraws, so incision and placement happen in one motion. Its bore is sized to graft caliber, and it is the main consumable of DHI work. The Garry DHI Implanter Needle comes in 5 bores, Ø 0.7 to 1.1 mm, each with its own order code and hub colour.

The Garry DHI Implanter Needle is Garry Medical's replacement needle for the Garry DHI Implanter Pen, crafted from Japanese Steel (Garry J-Steel) and ground and polished for the pen's positive seating system. It comes in 5 diameters, Ø 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, 1.0 and 1.1 mm, with order codes DHI-TIP-070 to DHI-TIP-110, and each size has its own hub colour matching the pen cap. Every needle is manufactured in Türkiye, inspected individually before it ships and supplied non-sterile in protective per-needle packaging; all sizes are listed on the DHI Implanter Needle page.

The Garry DHI Implanter Needle comes in 5 diameters, Ø 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, 1.0 and 1.1 mm, the same 5 diameters as the Garry DHI Implanter Pen. Each size is its own catalog entry with its own order code and product page, for example the Garry DHI Implanter Needle 0.9 mm, order code DHI-TIP-090.

The Garry DHI Implanter Needle has 5 order codes, one per diameter, DHI-TIP-070, DHI-TIP-080, DHI-TIP-090, DHI-TIP-100 and DHI-TIP-110. The digits give the diameter, so DHI-TIP-070 is Ø 0.7 mm and DHI-TIP-110 is Ø 1.1 mm, and the matching pen carries the same digits, for example DHI-PEN-090 with DHI-TIP-090. Ordering by code lets a reorder name exactly the needle of the first delivery.

Each Garry DHI Implanter Needle size has one hub colour, the same colour as the pen cap of that size: Ø 0.7 mm yellow, Ø 0.8 mm blue, Ø 0.9 mm red, Ø 1.0 mm white and Ø 1.1 mm black. The colour identifies the diameter, which is how a needle is matched to the pen of the same size, and it is chosen with the size rather than separately.

Finer Garry DHI Implanter Needles go to single-hair grafts at the hairline and larger diameters to multi-hair units. Ø 0.7 mm (DHI-TIP-070, yellow) is the finest bore in the set and Ø 0.8 mm (DHI-TIP-080, blue) a fine bore, both matched to single-hair grafts and fine calibers; Ø 0.9 mm (DHI-TIP-090, red) is the standard bore for mixed follicular units; Ø 1.0 mm (DHI-TIP-100, white) is a larger bore for fuller multi-hair grafts; and Ø 1.1 mm (DHI-TIP-110, black) is the largest bore, for coarse calibers and large units. The final choice follows the measured graft caliber and the surgeon's plan.

The Garry DHI Implanter Needle is chosen by graft caliber, because the bore has to hold the graft securely enough to place it and loosely enough not to compress it. A bore that is too small jams grafts at loading and adds handling, while a bore that is too large lets the graft sit loose and opens a bigger channel than the graft needs. Our guide Implanter Needle Sizes - Matching the Needle to the Graft explains the sizing logic, and a quote request with your graft mix gets a suggested set.

The Garry DHI Implanter Needle size is planned together with the punch, because the graft's caliber is set at extraction by the punch diameter and the donor hair, and placement has to accept what harvesting produces. The sequence is to choose punch diameters for the donor and graft mix, map the graft calibers that mix produces, and then stock needle sizes that seat that spread, typically more than one. Garry makes both instruments, the Garry Fue Punch in Ø 0.7 to 0.9 mm and the needle in Ø 0.7 to 1.1 mm.

No, the Garry DHI Implanter Needle is published in 5 diameters from Ø 0.7 to 1.1 mm, and sizes outside that range or between the published steps are not offered. The finest code is DHI-TIP-070 (Ø 0.7 mm, yellow) and the largest is DHI-TIP-110 (Ø 1.1 mm, black). Across the market, implanter needles are commonly offered in the region of 0.6 to 1.2 mm.

The finest Garry DHI Implanter Needle is Ø 0.7 mm, order code DHI-TIP-070 with a yellow hub, matched to single-hair grafts and fine calibers, and Ø 0.8 mm (DHI-TIP-080, blue) is the next fine bore. The choice for eyebrow or other fine-caliber work follows the measured graft caliber and the surgeon's plan, and a bore finer than Ø 0.7 mm is not in the range. See the Garry DHI Implanter Needle 0.7 mm.

The Garry DHI Implanter Needle is published by its bore, Ø 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, 1.0 and 1.1 mm, and the bore is the internal channel the graft is loaded into and travels through, as the needle sizing guide explains. Gauge equivalents, wall thickness and outer-diameter tolerances are not published on the site. If you need them for a code, ask through the contact page and we answer in writing.

The Garry DHI Implanter Needle is crafted from Japanese Steel (Garry J-Steel), the same material as the Garry Fue Punch. It is machined, ground and polished, and inspected individually in Türkiye. Garry does not publish a steel grade or hardness figure for Garry J-Steel, and further material questions are answered in writing on request.

The Garry DHI Implanter Needle opens the recipient site itself as it places the graft, which is the one-motion DHI role the glossary gives sharp implanter needles, as opposed to dull-tipped implanters that place into premade incisions. Each needle is ground and polished for the pen's positive seating system, and a fresh, undamaged tip supports gentle placement late in a session. Details of tip finish and geometry are answered in writing on request.

The Garry DHI Implanter Needle has a colour-coded hub and a positive-seat fitting matched to the Garry DHI Implanter Pen. The needle seats positively in the pen, so the exposed length, which sets implantation depth, holds its setting across a session, and a replacement needle returns the handpiece to its set exposed length without re-calibration. The hub colour matches the pen cap of the same diameter.

The Garry DHI Implanter Needle publishes its diameter, material, hub colour, fitting, sterilization and packaging on every product page; overall needle length, bevel geometry and hub material are not published on the site. They are answered in writing on request, together with the fit to your pen. Send the order codes you are considering through the contact page.

The Garry DHI Implanter Needle is made for the Garry DHI Implanter Pen and is paired with it by diameter and colour, so DHI-TIP-090 (red) goes with DHI-PEN-090 (red), DHI-TIP-070 (yellow) with DHI-PEN-070 and so on. Replacement needles for each pen are ordered separately as DHI-TIP codes in the same diameter. The pens are listed on the DHI Implanter Pen page.

Fit of the Garry DHI Implanter Needle with pens other than the Garry DHI Implanter Pen is confirmed on the quotation, not assumed, because implanter needles seat in a specific pen system rather than fitting every pen. Tell us the pen you use when you request a quote and we confirm in writing. Use with devices or accessories Garry has not specified for the needle falls outside the warranty, as set out in the Terms of Sale.

The Garry DHI Implanter Needle is made to be used seated in the Garry DHI Implanter Pen, whose spring-loaded plunger releases the graft through the needle as it withdraws. Other uses are not described on the site, and questions about them are answered in writing through the contact page.

Changing the Garry DHI Implanter Needle in the Garry pen needs no re-calibration: each needle is ground and polished for the pen's positive seating system, so a new needle of the same order code returns the handpiece to its set exposed length. Implantation depth is set by the exposed needle length, which is adjustable on the Garry DHI Implanter Pen, and the pen's positive seat holds that setting across needle changes, so depth stays consistent through a session. Before each session, check that the needle is seated firmly and the exposed length matches the planned depth.

The Garry DHI Implanter Needle is changed according to your clinic's protocol and the product's instructions for use, and at once when the tip shows any damage or the needle no longer seats firmly in the pen. It is reusable and designed for up to 15,000 penetrations before the tip dulls, and a worn tip shows up in placement quality, so check the tip before each session. Plan needle quantities per case from your graft counts with that figure in mind.

The number of Garry DHI Implanter Needles per session depends on your protocol, graft volume and team size, so Garry publishes no fixed count. Most real cases place a range of calibers and run more than one needle size, DHI teams typically run 2 or 3 pen sizes side by side, and several loaded pens stay in rotation so placement does not wait for loading. Tell us your graft mix and team size in a quote request and we suggest a set.

No, the Garry DHI Implanter Needle is supplied non-sterile, in protective per-needle packaging, and it is steam sterilized at 134 °C before each use. Cleaning and sterilization before first use follow your clinic's validated processes and Garry's reprocessing guidance.

The Garry DHI Implanter Needle is reusable and is designed for up to 15,000 penetrations before the tip dulls. It is cleaned and steam-sterilized at 134 °C between uses, and a needle whose tip shows any damage, or that no longer seats firmly in the pen, is replaced.

The Garry DHI Implanter Needle is reusable and is steam-sterilized at 134 °C between uses: flush the needle channel with water at the point of use before debris dries, clean it with a neutral-pH detergent, rinse and dry it, then sterilize it. A prevacuum cycle is the right choice for lumened instruments, because it removes air mechanically so steam reaches inside the channel; follow your sterilizer's validated parameters. Keep needles away from saline and prolonged soaking, and any reprocessing question sent through the contact page is answered in writing.

Replace a Garry DHI Implanter Needle once the tip shows any damage or it no longer seats firmly in the pen. The needle is designed for up to 15,000 penetrations before the tip dulls, and use and reprocessing wear the tip, so inspect each needle before use, and withdraw it from use at any sign of wear, damage or corrosion. Garry does not re-sharpen or refurbish needles; a worn needle is replaced with a new one of the same order code.

The Garry DHI Implanter Needle is supplied non-sterile, each needle in protective per-needle packaging and 50 needles per box, and each diameter has its own order code. Each released needle is matched to the catalog size it was made to and carries that size's order code, and its hub colour shows the diameter at a glance.

Lead time for the Garry DHI Implanter Needle is confirmed per order code on the quotation, and the order confirmation states the estimated dispatch date. Garry supplies clinics, hospitals and distributors worldwide, shipping as tracked freight direct from its facility in Türkiye with no importer in between; shipping terms to your country are confirmed on the quotation, and where an exclusive dealer is appointed in a market, orders may run through that dealer.

Distributors can apply on the dealer application page; our team reviews applications within 1-2 business days, and approved partners get distributor pricing across the catalog, online ordering, invoices, order history and quick reordering. For a dealer, needles are among the repeat, consumable-style orders a stable clinic base places.

The Garry DHI Implanter Pen is the spring-loaded handpiece, and the Garry DHI Implanter Needle is the hollow consumable that seats in it and carries the graft. The pen is medical-grade steel with DHI-PEN order codes and is supplied non-sterile, while the needle is crafted from Japanese Steel (Garry J-Steel), carries DHI-TIP order codes and is supplied non-sterile in protective per-needle packaging. Both come in the same 5 diameters, Ø 0.7 to 1.1 mm, with one colour per size, so DHI-PEN-080 and DHI-TIP-080 are both blue; see the DHI Implanter Pen page and the DHI Implanter Needle page.

An FUE punch extracts the graft from the donor area, and a DHI implanter needle, such as the Garry DHI Implanter Needle, places it in the recipient area. DHI is a placement method, not a different extraction technique, so a DHI case still harvests with a punch like the Garry Fue Punch and then places with an implanter pen and needle. Both are crafted from Japanese Steel (Garry J-Steel), and the punch diameter and needle bore describe the same graft, so they are planned together.

The Garry DHI Implanter Needle is supplied non-sterile and is steam sterilized at 134 °C by the clinic before use, while some needles on the market are sold sterile for single use. What matters is that the supplied format fits your reprocessing workflow, since single-use or reusable status is a designation set by the manufacturer's instructions, not a chairside decision. The Garry DHI Implanter Needle is reusable and is designed for up to 15,000 penetrations before the tip dulls.

A fair way to compare the Garry DHI Implanter Needle with any other implanter needle is on checkable facts, such as who makes it and where, whether every needle is inspected or only sampled, whether you buy direct, whether each size has its own order code, and whether size range, pen fit, material, packaging and warranty are stated. Garry publishes each of these, as the needle is manufactured in Türkiye and supplied direct, every needle is inspected individually, its 5 diameters carry 5 order codes and 5 hub colours, the material is Japanese Steel (Garry J-Steel), packaging is protective and per needle, fit with the Garry DHI Implanter Pen is stated and a manufacturer warranty covers defects in material and workmanship. The needle guide's stocking checklist turns this into questions to ask any supplier.

The Garry DHI Implanter Needle gives clinics and distributors facts they can check. It is made by Garry Medical in Türkiye and supplied direct, every needle is inspected individually before shipment, and each of its 5 diameters from Ø 0.7 to 1.1 mm has its own order code and hub colour matching the pen, so a reorder names exactly the needle of the first delivery. The material, crafted from Japanese Steel (Garry J-Steel), the positive-seat fitting that returns the pen to its set exposed length and the protective per-needle packaging are stated on every product page, quotations arrive in writing within 24 hours on business days, and distributors and high-volume clinics can open an account with partner pricing and online reordering.

Garry Medical is the manufacturer of the Garry DHI Implanter Needle, not a reseller. It designs and makes the needle alongside its implanter pens in Türkiye, from material intake with Japanese Steel (Garry J-Steel) to machining of the needle profile, surface finishing, piece-by-piece inspection and packing, and supplies clinics and dealers direct with no importer in between. The process is described on the Production page.
