The reason why the surgery to transplant the organs of our body was able to make a breakthrough was because of the development of the’organ storage solution’.

Corneal transplantation, for example, is said that if the donated cornea is preserved in an organ storage solution, it can survive for 3 to 4 days without damage and overcome the time and distance transported to the patient to be transplanted.

In any organ transplant operation, the organ storage fluid guarantees the health of the transplanted organs between the donor’s body and the patient’s body.

The same is true for hair transplantation. “The hair follicles collected for hair transplantation are waiting for transplantation outside the body for a certain period of time, but they are generally stored in physiological saline,” said Jin-oh Kim, director of the NHI New Hair Hair Transplant Center. “By the way, if the hair follicle cells are preserved in an organ storage solution, the hair follicles It can prevent cell membrane damage and DNA damage by inhibiting the generation of free radicals in cells,” he said.

“This solution, which was originally used in organ transplantation surgery, is the best choice for preserving hair follicles as it’s main purpose is to protect cells. Hair transplantation is not a surgery in which only hair is pulled out and transplanted, but a’hair follicle that produces hair’,” said Kim. It is the concept of tissue transplantation that transplants cells,” he said. “Only if the cells are not damaged, good surgical results can be obtained.”

In this regard, according to the’Hair Transplantation Textbook’ (Unger`s Hair Transplantation as Kim Jin-oh), it has been proven that organ preservatives significantly lower the activity of free radicals in transplanted hair follicles.

In addition, it has been revealed that hair follicles exposed to free radicals can damage the tissue after transplantation and reduce the survival rate of the hair follicle.
