    What is A Hair Transplant?

A hair transplant is a type of hair restoration surgery during which healthy hair growing on the back and the side of the head, the so-called donor area, is transplanted to the areas of the scalp that suffer from hair loss. Unlike the hair on top of the scalp, the donor hair growing on the back and side is immune to the damaging effects of dihydrotestosterone, an androgen that causes pattern baldness. 

 

Hair Transplant Methods

 
Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE)

Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) is a newer hair transplant method in which individual hair follicles are transplanted to a thinning or balding area from a donor site — an area of denser hair growth typically located on the back or side of the head using micro punches to remove individual follicles.

 
 
 

  Direct Hair Implantation (DHI)

DHI is a cutting-edge technique that ensures natural-looking results with minimal discomfort. During DHI, individual hair follicles are meticulously extracted from the donor area and directly implanted into the recipient area using specialized instruments. This precise approach allows for controlled angle, depth, and direction of placement, resulting in a seamless and aesthetically pleasing hairline.
 
 

 

SAPPHIRE FUE

Sapphire FUE utilizes sapphire blades, which are incredibly precise and gentle, to create tiny incisions for implanting hair follicles. This approach offers numerous benefits,including minimal scarring, faster healing, and a natural hairline. The use of sapphire blades allows for greater control over angle and direction, resulting in a more authentic and seamless appearance.

Kidney Transplant Surgery at Acıbadem

A kidney transplant is the best treatment option for kidney failure. Acıbadem Healthcare Group is a leading destination for kidney transplant surgery in Turkey.

Kidney transplant surgery

A kidney transplant is an operation for patients with kidney failure. Healthy kidneys have many functions, including filtering waste products and toxins, secreting erythropoietin to prompt the production of red blood cells, and releasing renin to help control blood pressure. When the kidneys are not working well, it affects vital body functions and causes problems to the heart, lungs, and bones. Advanced loss of kidney function is known as kidney failure or end-stage renal disease. People suffering from kidney failure need dialysis or a kidney transplant to live. Dialysis can be a lifesaving option, but the machine cannot replace all functions of a healthy organ. Studies show that successful kidney transplantation provides better quality of life and life expectancy compared to dialysis. In the long run, it is also more cost-effective than dialysis.

During a kidney transplant surgery, the recipient receives a healthy organ from a deceased or living kidney donor. The new kidney is placed in the abdomen and connected to the blood vessels and the bladder. Damaged kidneys are usually not removed unless they cause problems. A kidney transplant is a major surgery and success rates depend on many factors, including the experience of the transplant center and its team.

Kidney transplant procedure

Before a living donor kidney transplant, both the donor and the recipient are subject to detailed lab tests, image diagnostics, and physical exams to assess their eligibility for the surgery. Once the evaluation is completed, the operation can be scheduled. At Acıbadem Kidney Transplant Center, donors can benefit from a minimally invasive surgery called laparoscopic donor nephrectomy, which is performed through a small incision for faster recovery. Advanced surgical techniques allow the removal of the kidney through a single port, the belly button, or the birth canal in women (NOTES procedure). The recipient is usually brought to the intensive care unit to be closely monitored immediately after the transplant. If the kidney comes from a living donor, it usually works right away or soon after the surgery.

Kidney transplant recovery time

After the kidney transplant surgery, patients have to spend a few days in the hospital to recover. They are closely monitored for any complications, such as bleeding or infection. Most patients can walk the day after the transplant surgery. At Acıbadem Kidney Transplant Center, the donor usually stays in the hospital for two days. The recipient is discharged after seven days. Transplanted patients can go back to their normal life within a few weeks. They will have to take medicines called immunosuppressants for the rest of their lives to prevent their body from rejecting the new organ. Regular follow-up examinations are needed in the first months after surgery to ensure that the kidney works well and the immunosuppressive drugs are properly adjusted.

How long does a kidney transplant last?

A transplanted kidney has no expiration date. It may last a lifetime for some patients, while others may need several transplants throughout their life. The life of a transplanted organ depends on many factors, including the general health of donor and the recipient, whether the donor was living or deceased, and the cause of transplantation (a persisting condition could harm the new kidney just like the natural one). Even if the transplanted kidney fails, the patient can still start dialysis or opt for a second transplant called retransplantation. 

In 2020, a woman living in France celebrated 50 years of active life after a kidney transplant. A man who received a transplant in 1971 is believed to be one of the longest surviving kidney transplant patients in the UK. Another man who received a transplant in June 1977 is thought to be the longest surviving patient in Asia. These are all transplants performed many years ago. Nowadays, surgical techniques and immunosuppressive drugs are much more sophisticated, and kidney recipients can expect even better outcomes.

Kidney transplant success rates

Kidney transplant outcomes have improved dramatically in the last decades. Developments in surgical techniques, advanced understanding of the immune system and immunosuppressive regimens, and better anti-microbial treatment options contribute to a higher kidney transplant survival rate. However, kidney transplantation is still a highly specialized medical intervention. Success rates depend greatly on the medical center and the team responsible for the operation and long-term follow-up. At Acıbadem Kidney Transplant Centers, the graft survival rate is 99% after the first year and 94% in the fifth year. The patient survival rate is 99% in the first year and 95% in the fifth year.

Kidney transplant in Turkey

Turkey is a global leader in renal transplantation, with more than 3,500 kidney transplants performed per year. Since cadaver organ donation is not sufficient globally, 80% of kidney transplants in Turkey are done with living donors. Transplant programs and success rates are well regulated and strictly monitored by the Ministry of Health. The transplant centers are regularly assessed, and their success rate should be more than 85%. Many patients from all over the world prefer Turkey for kidney transplantation due to the extensive experience, affordable cost, and high success rates of transplant centers.
