Picasso Robotic DHI: Dr. Terziler’s Artistic Robotic Hair Transplant
Picasso Robotic DHI is the artistic robotic hair transplant package at Dr. Terziler Exclusive Clinic in Istanbul, Turkey. It combines three things: the Robotic DHI machine that Dr. Servet Terziler invented, a 0.75 mm Choi implanter pen (the world's thinnest in clinical use), and a hairline that Dr. Terziler hand-draws on each patient before surgery. The clinic targets up to 60 grafts per cm² at the hairline, 35° to 45° angulation, 3.5 to 4.5 mm depth, average graft out-of-body time under 90 seconds, and a 98.1% graft survival rate at month 12 (internal audit, n=120). Dr. Terziler clinic holds AACI international accreditation (Cert No. C150-2022-ACC-TR-IEEA, Standards V5.0) and a Turkish Ministry of Health International Health Tourism Authorization (Cert No. ST-1905).
Operational Process
-
ADIM 01
Consultation
Hair density, donor area capacity and facial proportions are assessed using artificial intelligence-supported analysis systems to create a personalised Hybrid Hair Transplant plan.
-
ADIM 02
Design
The areas from which grafts are to be harvested, the implantation angles, the frontal hairline and the distribution of density are all planned using Picasso Robotic technology, with the aim of achieving maximum precision.
-
ADIM 03
Picasso Robotic DHI
Healthy grafts are carefully harvested and transplanted using the DHI (Direct Hair Implantation) technique, ensuring that the natural direction of hair growth is preserved. Thanks to the Hybrid Hair Transplant approach, which combines aesthetic planning with advanced technologies, the aim is to achieve natural and dense results.
-
ADIM 04
Follow-up & Support
The recovery process is closely monitored through the initial wash, aftercare advice and regular check-ups. The growth of new hair is assessed at regular intervals to monitor long-term results.

Last medically reviewed:
- Picasso Robotic DHI is the artistic robotic hair transplant at Dr. Terziler Exclusive Clinic in Beşiktaş, Istanbul. It pairs the Robotic DHI machine that Dr. Servet Terziler invented with a 0.75 mm Choi implanter pen and a hairline drawn by Dr. Terziler personally.
- Average graft survival is 98.1% at month 12 (internal audit, n=120). Hairline density targets up to 60 grafts/cm². Implantation depth 3.5 to 4.5 mm, angulation 35° to 45°, average out-of-body time under 90 seconds.
- The 0.75 mm Choi pen used in Picasso is currently the thinnest implanter pen in clinical use; smaller channel scar profile, lower hyperpigmentation risk in Fitzpatrick V to VI skin types, and tighter packing without crossing the scalp's vascular budget.
- Dr. Terziler runs a 7-stage hairline design protocol (face shape, frontotemporal triangle, mid-frontal point, transition zone, single-graft micro-irregularity, whorl-respect mapping, aging projection) before any anaesthetic is given.
- The clinic holds AACI International Accreditation (Cert No. C150-2022-ACC-TR-IEEA, Standards V5.0) and Turkish Ministry of Health International Health Tourism Authorization (Cert No. ST-1905).
- Picasso Robotic DHI is the premium, doctor-led tier and is planned individually after a personalised consultation — built around your donor area, graft need and hairline design.
What Is Picasso Robotic DHI?
Picasso Robotic DHI is a premium robotic hair transplant that combines robotic implantation, the world's thinnest 0.75 mm Choi implanter pen, and a hairline drawn by hand by Dr. Servet Terziler at Dr. Terziler Exclusive Clinic in Istanbul. It upgrades the standard Robotic DHI by adding doctor-led artistic hairline design and tighter density targets at the front row.
Three things make Picasso Robotic DHI different. First, the Robotic DHI machine itself was invented by Dr. Servet Terziler. Second, the implanter pen used in the package has a 0.75 mm tip, which is currently the thinnest Choi pen in clinical use and creates a smaller channel than 1.0 mm or 1.2 mm tips. Third, Dr. Terziler personally draws the hairline on the patient before any incision is made and stays hands-on through the design and implantation phases.
The package is built for patients who care about more than coverage. They want a hairline that looks drawn, not stamped. They want angulation that follows the native hair flow. They want a result that ages with them, not against them. The Picasso package is considered as the best hair transplant in Turkey and targets up to 60 grafts per cm² at the hairline, 35° to 45° hair angulation, and 3.5 to 4.5 mm implant depth.
Picasso Robotic DHI is the artistic hairline upgrade of Robotic DHI offered at Dr. Terziler Exclusive Clinic in Istanbul. It pairs Dr. Servet Terziler's hand-drawn hairline with a 0.75 mm Choi implanter pen and the Robotic DHI machine he invented. Average graft survival reaches 98.1% at month 12.
Why Dr. Servet Terziler Is Called the Picasso of Hair
Dr. Servet Terziler has spent more than 35 years in surgical hair restoration. Peers and patients call him the Picasso of Hair because of how he treats the hairline as a drawing. He maps the frontotemporal triangle by hand and works with face shape, native hair direction, and aging projection at the same time. He does not run a tape measure across a patient's forehead and call it a hairline.
His credentials are documented and verifiable. He attended the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery (ISHRS) workshop and earned 34.55 AMA PRA Category 1 credits. He is the founder and current president of TÜSATDER (Turkish Health Tourism Association). He invented the Robotic DHI machine that the clinic uses today, which is why the clinic's Robotic DHI procedure carries a clear inventor claim.
The clinic he leads is a fully accredited surgical facility. It holds the Accreditation Association for Credentialing International (AACI) International Accreditation Standards V5.0, certificate number C150-2022-ACC-TR-IEEA. It holds a Turkish Ministry of Health International Health Tourism Authorization, certificate number ST-1905. The clinic interior in Beşiktaş won two European Property Awards in 2022-23 (Best Public Service Interior Europe and Best Retail Interior Europe). The 2023 Quality of Magazine recognition adds a third independent peer signal.
Picasso Robotic DHI vs Standard Robotic DHI
Both procedures use the same Robotic DHI machine. The package is what changes. Standard Robotic DHI hair transplant is the base robotic hair transplant technique. The Picasso upgrade adds Dr. Terziler's hand-drawn hairline, tighter density targets at the front row, and longer one-on-one design time.
| Factor | Standard Robotic DHI | Picasso Robotic DHI |
|---|---|---|
| Robotic DHI machine | Yes (invented by Dr. Servet Terziler) | Yes (same machine) |
| Hairline design | Drawn by senior surgeon or trained team | Drawn by Dr. Servet Terziler personally |
| Choi implanter pen tip | 0.75 mm (thinnest in clinical use) | 0.75 mm (thinnest in clinical use) |
| Front-row composition | Mixed singles and small doubles | Single-graft only, micro-irregular |
| Hairline density target | 40 to 50 grafts/cm² | Up to 60 grafts/cm² |
| Aging projection model | Standard reference | 5-year and 10-year personalised |
| Pre-op design time | 10 to 15 minutes | 25 to 40 minutes (7-stage protocol) |
| Graft survival (month 12, internal) | 90 to 97% | 98.1% (n=120) |
Picasso Robotic DHI vs Manual DHI Hair Transplant
DHI stands for Direct Hair Implantation. Classic DHI uses a Choi implanter pen but no robotic guidance; the surgeon and technicians control angle, depth and direction by feel and experience. Manual DHI hair transplant Turkey is a strong technique on its own, and the clinic still offers it for selected cases.
Picasso Robotic DHI is different on three axes. First, the Robotic DHI machine measures graft caliber, angle, and density in real time and reduces the variance you get with a fully manual approach. Second, the Picasso package uses the 0.75 mm Choi pen which is thinner than the 1.0 mm pen used in most classic DHI clinics. Third, the hairline in Picasso is drawn by Dr. Terziler personally, while many classic DHI workflows delegate the drawing to a senior technician.
Classic DHI is a manual system; Picasso Robotic DHI adds a robotic guidance layer and a doctor-drawn hairline (both use the thinnest 0.75 mm pen). The graft survival ceiling is higher and the hairline reads more natural under barber-light.
Picasso Robotic DHI vs Sapphire FUE
Sapphire FUE uses sapphire blades to open recipient channels before the grafts are placed, creating cleaner, smaller channels than steel. Sapphire FUE is a respected technique and the clinic offers it as a stand-alone option.
The technical split is simple. Sapphire FUE is a two-step technique: open channels first, place grafts second. Picasso Robotic DHI is a one-step implantation: the Choi pen creates the channel and places the graft in the same motion. That single motion shortens out-of-body time for the graft, which raises the survival ceiling. The Picasso package targets average graft out-of-body time under 90 seconds; with the two-step Sapphire FUE workflow, that number is structurally higher.
Patients who already have channels marked or who prefer a separated channel-and-place rhythm may still pick Sapphire FUE. Patients who want the highest density at the hairline, the artistic doctor-drawn line, and the lowest channel size pick Picasso.
Picasso Robotic DHI vs Classic FUE
Classic FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) extracts grafts with micro-punches and places them with forceps into pre-opened channels. It is the technique that built modern hair transplantation, and the clinic continues to perform it for specific indications.
Picasso Robotic DHI replaces forceps placement with Choi-pen direct implantation. Forceps grip the graft body and can compress the bulb. Choi pens hold the graft in a hollow needle and release it on a depth-set plunger, which reduces compression. For the Picasso package the pen tip is 0.75 mm, which leaves a smaller channel scar profile than the 0.9 to 1.1 mm tips common in many FUE clinics.
What Is the 7-Stage Hairline Design Protocol for Picasso Robotic DHI?
Most clinics decide a hairline in 3 minutes with a curved ruler. Dr. Terziler runs a 7-stage protocol that takes 25 to 40 minutes and finalises the line before any anaesthetic is given. Each stage feeds the next.
Face Shape Audit
Dr. Terziler classifies the face as oval, round, square, oblong, heart, or diamond. The hairline curve and frontotemporal triangle aperture change with face shape. An oval face takes a softer concave line; a square face takes a slightly higher mid-frontal point and wider temples. The audit also checks for facial asymmetry, which is more common than patients realise.
Frontotemporal Triangle
The frontotemporal triangle is the V-shaped recess between the front row and the temple. Dr. Terziler positions the apex of this triangle so the line frames the eye, not the eyebrow. Apex placement decides whether the hairline reads young or aged.
Mid-Frontal Point
The mid-frontal point sits in the middle of the front row. Standard reference is 7 to 9 cm above the glabella in adult males, adjusted for face length. Dr. Terziler sets it lower for round faces and slightly higher for oblong faces to balance proportion.
Transition Zone
The transition zone is the irregular band of single grafts at the very front. It is not flat; it is built from soft peaks and valleys so the line reads broken under direct light, the same way a real hairline reads. A flat transition is the single fastest way to look transplanted.
Single-Hair Micro-Irregularity
Dr. Terziler places single-graft units in the front row only. Doubles and triples sit behind them. Roughly 250 to 400 single grafts go into the first 1 cm strip, depending on Norwood stage. The placement is intentionally non-uniform so the line never reads as a printed row.
Whorl-Respect Mapping
If the patient has a whorl on the crown or a cowlick on the front, Dr. Terziler maps the native swirl direction first and the new grafts follow that vector. Forcing grafts against an existing whorl is what produces the rotated-disk look that flags a transplant from across the room.
Aging Projection
The hairline is drawn so it still reads natural at age 50 and 60. Dr. Terziler models the patient's likely future Norwood stage and pulls the line back accordingly. He does not chase a teenage hairline on a 38-year-old. The aging model is the part of the protocol most patients have never been offered before.
What Is the Science Behind 98.1% Graft Survival?
The 98.1% figure is from an internal audit of 120 Picasso package patients evaluated at month 12. The number is high because the clinic controls the four variables that decide whether a graft lives or dies.
Out-of-body time per graft: under 90 seconds on average. Longer ischemia kills follicles silently.
Holding solution: HypoThermosol with adenosine triphosphate (ATP) supplementation keeps grafts metabolically alive between extraction and implantation.
Channel size match: a 0.75 mm channel for a 0.06 to 0.08 mm hair shaft minimises bulb compression and channel necrosis.
Angle and depth control: implantation at 35° to 45° at 3.5 to 4.5 mm depth keeps the bulb inside its native vascular lake.
These are not branding numbers. They are the variables that the ISHRS, the American Academy of Dermatology, and peer-reviewed dermatology literature point to as the determinants of hair transplant survival. Dr. Terziler's contribution is the operational discipline that hits all four every time.
Who Is a Candidate for a Picasso Robotic DHI Hair Transplant?
The Picasso package is built for five patient profiles: men with Norwood 2 to 5 loss who want a doctor-drawn artistic hairline; public-facing professionals; women with Ludwig I to II loss; repair patients; and people with fine, straight hair.
- Men with Norwood 2 to 5 hair loss who want a doctor-drawn artistic hairline.
- Public-facing professionals who need the result to read natural under direct light, on camera, and after a haircut.
- Women with Ludwig I to II hair loss who want a feminine hairline preserved with single-graft front row.
- Patients with previous hair transplants from elsewhere who want a corrective artistic line drawn over old work.
- Patients with fine, straight hair where the 0.75 mm pen produces a result that thicker pens cannot.
The package is not the right pick if the patient is under 25 with active progressive loss, if the donor zone is exhausted, or if the patient is looking purely for the lowest price.
Picasso Robotic DHI for Women
Women's hair transplant work is a specialty inside the clinic. The hairline drops lower, the curvature is softer, and the front row is built almost entirely from single grafts. The artistic line is what separates a feminine result from a masculinised one.
The clinic published a 2,922-graft female hair transplant in Turkey case as a reference outcome, showing the Ludwig-stage shift the patient reached at month 12 with the Picasso package. PRP and exosome therapy are typically added 8 to 12 weeks post-op to support new shaft maturation.
Most women prefer the no-shave hair transplant option in the Picasso Robotic package.
Picasso Robotic DHI for Afro-Textured Hair
Afro-textured hair has a curved follicle below the skin. Standard punches snap the curve and damage the bulb, so the clinic uses curved punches and adjusted angle mapping for Afro hair transplant cases.
The Picasso package handles Fitzpatrick V to VI skin types safely. The 0.75 mm channel size reduces post-op hyperpigmentation risk in deeper skin tones. Trichoscopy is run before any extraction to confirm follicle curvature and graft count per unit.
Picasso Robotic DHI for Repair Cases
Repair cases are patients who had a hair transplant elsewhere and want it corrected. Common problems are flat hairlines, plug-look fronts, wrong angulation, and over-harvested donor zones.
Dr. Terziler designs an artistic line on top of the existing one. He pulls bad-angle grafts and re-implants them at 35° to 45°, and fills the transition zone with single-graft micro-irregularity. Repair work is slower than primary work and is planned individually after review.
Same-Session Add-Ons: Eyebrow & Beard
Patients can add eyebrow or beard work to the same Picasso session if donor capacity allows. Beard donor can also feed scalp coverage in late-Norwood cases. Dedicated pages: Eyebrow transplant and Beard transplant.
Eyebrow grafts run 200 to 400 per side at acute angles between 5° and 15°. Beard grafts target the cheek line, moustache, or goatee with 800 to 2,500 grafts depending on density target. Both add-ons share the 0.75 mm Choi pen.
What Is the Post-Op Support Stack for Picasso Robotic DHI? PRP, Exosome, Hair Care
The package includes a structured post-op support plan. Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) injects autologous growth factors at month 3 and month 6. Exosome therapy delivers signalling vesicles to the follicle environment around month 4. Hair care products keep the scalp's micronutrient and vitamin profile high during the early growth phase.
Adjuncts the clinic discusses with each patient: finasteride for native-hair preservation in selected men, minoxidil topical 5% for early shock-loss recovery, and biotin only when serum levels demand it.
What's Inside the Picasso Package?
Every item below is planned together as one all-inclusive, surgeon-led robotic hair transplant experience.
Picasso Robotic DHI Package
Built around Dr. Servet Terziler's invented Robotic DHI machine, the world's thinnest 0.75 mm Choi pen, and a hand-drawn hairline. Every item below is included in the package.
How Is Picasso Robotic DHI Priced?
Picasso Robotic DHI is the premium, doctor-led robotic hair transplant tier and is quoted individually after consultation. Because every case differs in donor reserve, graft need, hairline design and technique, the exact price is confirmed only after Dr. Terziler's team reviews your photos — it is not shown as a fixed public figure.
The package is all-inclusive by design: the surgery with Dr. Terziler, the invented Robotic DHI machine, the 0.75 mm Choi pen, the hand-drawn hairline, 5-star accommodation, VIP transfers, PRP and exosome support, aftercare and documented follow-up are planned together. What you compare is not a per-graft number but the surgeon responsibility, the technique, and the outcome. For pricing context across other techniques, see the hair transplant cost in Turkey guide.
Recovery Timeline after Picasso Robotic DHI (Day 0 to Month 18)
Recovery follows a predictable arc. The clinic provides a written post-op protocol and supervises the first wash on Day 3 inside the clinic. Most international patients fly home on Day 4.
| Timeline | What Happens |
|---|---|
| Day 0 | Procedure day. Hairline design, extraction, robotic implantation. 6 to 9 hours total. |
| Day 1 to 2 | Mild scalp tenderness. Light forehead swelling possible. Sleep elevated at 45° on a travel pillow. |
| Day 3 | First supervised wash at the clinic. Most patients can fly home from Day 3 onward. |
| Day 5 to 7 | Crusts shed gradually under the prescribed wash routine. Office work resumable for most patients. |
| Week 2 to 3 | Initial shock-loss shedding of transplanted hair shafts. Follicles remain intact below the scalp. |
| Month 3 | New hair begins to emerge. PRP support session. |
| Month 4 | Exosome therapy session. Visible early density change. |
| Month 6 | Approximately 50 to 60% of final density visible. Second PRP session. |
| Month 12 | Around 80 to 85% of results visible. Internal audit checkpoint (98.1% graft survival, n=120). |
| Month 18 | Full results. Hair fully matured. Barber-light read indistinguishable from native. |
How Do the Picasso Robotic DHI Before and After Results Look Like?
Picasso Robotic DHI before and after results should show an artistic, natural hairline, clean donor healing, and density that still looks real at 12 months, documented over the recovery timeline.
Patient photos are published with consent. Individual results vary depending on hair loss stage, donor supply, and aftercare.
What Are the Patient Reviews & Outcomes for Picasso Robotic DHI?
The clinic publishes verified reviews and before-and-after sets across men, women, repair, and afro-textured cases.
I wanted Dr. Terziler himself to draw the line, not a technician. He spent more than half an hour on the design alone, talking through where my line would sit at 50, not just at 35. At month 12 it looks like the hair I had at 25 but more controlled. My barber asked me what I was using.
I had a botched transplant in 2021 from another country — flat, plug-looking front. Dr. Terziler designed an artistic line over the old work, pulled the bad-angle grafts, and rebuilt the transition zone with single grafts. The 0.75 mm pen scarring is invisible under a buzz-cut.
As a woman researching this, the no-shave option mattered most. The clinic isolated a small donor strip and the rest of my hair covered it during recovery. My Ludwig II thinning at the front is gone. The single-graft front row is what makes it look feminine instead of harsh.
I went through five clinics on consultation calls. Dr. Terziler was the only one who asked about my future hair loss instead of selling me a teenage line. The aging projection conversation alone made the decision. At month 14, the density at the temples reads dense without looking placed.
Only verified, consented reviews and patient photos are published. Individual results vary.
