Commonality between hair transplantation and myocardial infarction,’hypothermia treatment and low temperature maintenance’

[Seoul = Newsis] Reporter Min Ki-hong = Myocardial infarction is caused by a sudden blockage of blood vessels going to the heart. Even with appropriate first aid measures, the risk of complications is high at the beginning of the onset of myocardial infarction, so at least 24 to 48 hours are completely uncomfortable. So, intensive observation is necessary.

When blood flow to human tissues is not smooth and blood circulation resumes, harmful substances such as activated oxygen are produced. One of the methods to prevent this is hypothermia treatment.

Hypothermia treatment lowers body temperature, reducing the production of harmful substances and preventing tissue damage. After 24 hours of hypothermic treatment, when normal body temperature is restored, the patient wakes up and recovers.

All tissues in our body are maintained by blood vessels. If there is a problem with blood circulation, the problem occurs in the tissues and becomes the source of disease.

In this regard, Jin-oh Kim, director of the NHI New Hair Hair Transplantation Center, said on the 14th, “The same is true for hair transplantation.” “The hair follicle cells must endure for about a week until they are transplanted into the forehead and blood vessels are created again, in order to make new hair.”

This is an essential factor for safe tissue transplantation by operating a low temperature system to maintain 4 degrees Celsius until transplantation when hair follicle cells are separated from blood vessels, and preserving them in organ storage so that they are not damaged by free radicals when blood vessels are connected again. All.

Therefore, since hair transplantation is a concept of tissue transplantation in which’hair follicle cells’ are transplanted, good surgical results can be obtained only when the cells are not damaged.

Regarding this, Director Kim said, “If the hair follicles before transplantation are well protected from free radicals, it is necessary to provide sufficient oxygen to the transplanted hair follicles.” Injecting 100% oxygen into the implantation site is a great help in self-sufficiency.”

He emphasized, “The importance of blood vessels, not only the liver and the heart, but also the hair follicle cells that make up the hair, is a key problem that is insufficient to emphasize several times.
