Frog in the well (level of hair transplant surgery)

Hello, it's been a while since I came back. Phew...There have been a lot of ripples in the meantime.
Anyway, I'm so burdened by everyone's interest.
I don't think I have much time for work these days. I can't dare at work and post it as soon as I can after work, so please understand..
It's a conclusion that I've felt very personally, so please understand, it's just my personal experience and opinion. I believe that you can get good results only when you order it yourself.
So for the reasons before, due to time, please understand that I don't reply to the riffle, actually these days I'm crazy about hair fluttering and inline lol. I feel so good... and I don't want to be misunderstood for nothing... Just for your information...
Okay, then I'll post it as an attachment.
Then I wish you all the best until the next time I see you... Goodbye…………



A frog in a well? (Like a hair transplant) You know, "a frog in a well." I wonder if it's too stimulating, but I wonder if the level and reality of our hair transplant surgery is the right thing to say. If you are interested in it a little bit and surf foreign hair-related websites for about a week, you will quickly feel how I felt.

In fact, it hasn't been long since the domestic medical community has been interested in hair loss. In the meantime, I had to be conscious of the unpleasant gaze of people around me that if someone said they were going to have hair transplant surgery for hair loss treatment, it was not a big deal. Not long ago, it was difficult to openly talk about hair transplantation. I was not proud of myself as if I was doing something secret and secret. The perception of society that is widespread in our society played a big part in this. So I think that's why even now, when people around me find out about hair transplant surgery, it's sold a little bit and feels awkward. This is because many people still recognize hair transplantation as plastic surgery to repair the face and chest.

But what about developed countries such as the United States with high national income? These countries had their basic economic problems solved, and people naturally came to want to live a richer, higher level of life before us. In this climate and atmosphere, many hair loss people suffer from worries and stress caused by hair loss, and the medical community has been interested in and opened their eyes early on the social problems and mental hardships they face. Thus, as a result of their efforts, various unusual surgical methods and drugs such as scalp reduction and expansion were developed. It's a pathetic surgical method that creates a doll-like appearance, but they've been putting a lot of effort into solving hair loss for a long time.

As far as I know, the hair follicle unit transplant, which is almost generalized by the latest techniques because it embodies the most natural hair in the world, was introduced to the International Hair Transplantation Society in 1992 under the title "Bundle Hair Transplantation." Rassman and Bernstein of the NHI Mobile Center in the United States quickly adopted it and succeeded it more.It was developed and later announced as a follicle transplant, which became a sensation in the hair society and is now widely popular. After that, the international community said Bundle Hair gave the impression of "hair bundle" and "bulk," and that follicle transplantation was a term for insufficiently conveying the meaning of language, and it became the concept of follicle unit transplantation today.

Therefore, the originator of the concept of hair follicle unit transplantation was Professor Kim Jeong-cheol of Korea, but after hearing the rumor that 'Naju seolleongtang' was delicious, he developed seolleongtang that was delicious to suit the taste of the general public, distributed it widely, and successfully established numerous chains under the name of 'Sinchon seolleongtang'. It is a phenomenon very similar to the case where people forget the original 'Naju seolleongtang' and look for it reminiscent of the ritual 'Sinchon seolleongtang'. It's the same concept, but it's been taken away even by its name. It's the same as when luxury brands dominate the Rocal brand in the market. The technology of modern hair transplantation, which was initiated by Japan's 'Okura' and 'Tamura', has been passed down to American medical personnel.It should be considered that it is similar to the current state of hair transplantation in Japan, where the Japanese have only sown seeds.

There are many reasons why it has not been developed even though it is an aid, but in my personal opinion, it must be in the social conditions, institutions, and cultural reasons of our society. It is various infectious diseases and cancers that threaten the lives of the people first because of our low national income in the past.It was an immediate reality in the medical community to extinguish the fire that fell on the foot immediately, such as incurable diseases and eradication. So who cares about baldness treatment? Naturally, hair transplant surgery was at the bottom of the medical list. Then, with 30 years of remarkable economic growth and rising national incomes, the explosion of people's desire for self-expression led to a social trend among women, just as plastic surgery burst in the 1980s and '90s. Before the IMF, no one had paid much attention to the issue of male hair loss, and there was not much interest in the medical community. This social condition and environment have led to the development of our hair transplant surgery because of the little social interest in hair loss and the lack of formation of a hair transplant market.

However, the rapid social change and transformation experienced through the IMF has changed the social perception that hair loss was regarded only as a cosmetic surgery. Interest in hair loss increased due to social conditions caused by employment difficulties, restructuring, and retirement. Moreover, as the medical community began to pay attention to the severe mental and social phenomena experienced by hair loss people, interest in hair transplantation began to rise. As a young person who is about to get married or get a job, I have come to sympathize with the reality of experiencing mental conflicts and disabilities, not disabilities, that are difficult to endure due to prejudice and perception in our society from lookism. Finally, a kind of consensus on the market has been formed between producers and consumers? On top of that, plastic surgery and dermatologists realized the potential market demand for hair transplant surgery, and they fought ahead to receive and perform hair transplant technology through various seminars and training programs organized by the International Hair Reconstruction Council and the World Hair Association. As a result of these circumstances, low-quality hair transplantation has been naturally produced, and each hospital does not receive stable quality medical care because the results of the surgery vary widely from doctor to doctor, and many complaints about the results of the surgery have erupted here and there.

On the other hand, developed countries such as the United States recognized the social importance of hair transplantation early and are already implementing hair surgeon systems a long time ago. In the U.S., you must have performed at least 300 patients in the last three years in order to qualify as a specialist, and you must score at least 100 points in conservative education to be eligible for the test, and you must pass the written and oral tests. Therefore, hair surgeons in the United States have institutionally made it strict to obtain certification only with a clear hair transplant technique and a sound and strict ethic accordingly. So it takes at least five years of training to become a specialist. Furthermore, guidance and training are mandatory to maintain qualifications even after becoming a specialist.
Thanks to the strict medical system that has been well-organized early on, the quality of hair transplantation is generally quite stable. How are we still? Since there is no hair surgeon system, anyone with a doctor's license can perform hair transplantation. Due to the lack of such a medical system, we hair loss people must face our reality of inevitably producing low-grade surgery.

Now, let's take a look at the reality of the hair transplant surgery industry in Korea? As pointed out earlier, Professor Kim Jeong-cheol introduced the concept of hair follicle unit surgery for the first time, but it did not develop further due to the lack of social systems and consumer markets, and soon researched and developed the concept in advanced countries such as the United States, and soon lost its pioneering position. Even now, they are constantly researching and developing this, developing and introducing the latest surgical techniques differentiated for each hair transplant center, such as follicle unit extraction: FUE (Follular Unit Extraction). Even now, we are making great efforts to apply cutting-edge technologies to hair follicle culture, hair follicle cloning, and stem cell research. Aren't they making great efforts and active efforts to introduce and further develop them through various conferences? But what about us? Can papers or research results published in various conferences be compared to them? Are we still focused on maximizing profits, ignoring new investments or research, with few new research activities and focusing only on commercial value? As a result, even the latest medical trends in foreign countries cannot be overturned properly, so I want to use the wrong logic to interpret everything only in a sub-factor way and ask whether I am misleading consumers (?) and patients.

I'm sorry. You're excited to write. However, it reveals that it is absolutely not intended to blame a particular person or a particular fact. If you feel that way, I sincerely apologize, and I ask for your generous understanding. When I visited a hospital in person for counseling while presenting in the past, my feelings at that time... I was excited for a moment because I remembered a lot of people who were talking about something that wasn't really true. In fact, there are more people who do not know that most hair loss patients these days have the knowledge of quasi-doctors, or that certain parts have more information than I thought. That's out of the question. I'm sorry...

And in addition to the medical system problem in Korea, what is another reason why the level of technology has fallen significantly? Another factor that hinders the improvement and development of hair transplantation in Korea is the internal factors of the hospital. In addition to determining the outcome of hair transplantation, your skills and experience are the most important. However, I think those who have undergone hair consciousness surgery will understand well that it is not possible to guarantee the successful outcome of hair transplantation with only one competent doctor. It's that the role of doctors in each process of hair transplantation, the role of hair follicle separators, and the role of assistants are different. So each different role is one important factor in the success of the operation, so it doesn't mean that a doctor alone can guarantee a successful outcome.

The primary key to the success of the surgery is by far the 'survival rate' of the hair. How is this survival rate determined? Shall we take a closer look? The primary thing is when the hair follicles are collected from the back of the head, and the degree of damage to the hair follicles is determined by the method of collection and the doctor's technique.(This is mostly determined by doctors). And next, the degree of damage to the hair follicle during the separation process of the hair follicle decisively affects the survival rate (at the hands of the hair follicle separators). The doctor also determines whether or not to suture, which affects the scar on the back of the head and the pain after surgery. After that, the survival rate of the hair in the important planting process is largely determined by the doctor. In addition, the survival rate is also affected by assistants or staff in the process of preserving hair follicles, installing them in hair transplants, and so on. And for about two weeks after surgery, the patient's own hands have a decisive effect on hair survival.

In this way, hair transplant surgery is possible as a ratio when the ability, cooperation, and dedication of many people participating in the surgery, including doctors, are united in the trinity, or the five, or the six. That's why, among surgeons, hair transplants are called "Team surgery." Like in a soccer game, all players, including goalkeepers, defenders, midfielders, and strikers, must have a thorough teamwork to produce successful results. In order to maintain such teamwork, hair transplant hospitals must operate large-scale agents on a regular basis at all times. It's as if the national soccer players were under Hiddink's leadership.Like the training camp at the Japan World Cup. However, how many hair transplant hospitals in Korea employ such agents at all times? Because of this situation, the technology of hair transplantation is always in limbo. There are always many factors and variables that will determine the quality of surgery, making it difficult to expect continuous technological advancement.

On the other hand, in foreign countries such as the United States, thanks to stable quality provision and stable market demand, agents in each field can increase their skills and skills in their respective fields based on their long experience and skills, and contribute to the research and development of better techniques and techniques for doctors. In this situation, if we compare our hair transplant team, the results will be incomparable to ours as we fight based on superior teamwork and close internal cooperation.

Nevertheless, some ignorant people, mainly related workers who share interests in hair transplant surgery, are thoroughly mocking the domestic hair transplant technology by cleverly exaggerating the level of hair transplant technology in Korea. In addition, Korea's private high-profile hair hospitals are avoiding investments such as the regular employment system because of the lack of a stable backflow of market demand, even though they have financial leeway. Of course, you need a lot of patients to basically maintain and develop hospitals. I understand. But my thoughts are different. Korea already has sufficient potential demand and if the stable procedure and quality are proven, it can attract more patients by making its name known through favorable reviews from patients, but doctors don't think about it for a long time right now and I think it's too urgent for what's in front of me. Personally, it's possible to reduce your spending at home (home, car, golf, travel, education, etc.).

Hehe, my relatives must be very angry again when they read this article... When we get together a few times a year because of housework, I always gobble up and attack like this, so I'm very angry... You should listen to them because they're such a public servant.. If you think about it a little differently, it can be a big success.... My wife is scared right now, so she can't move. You'll regret it later...… Anyway, each person has his own plate.. There's no one who doesn't know who... Gosh, the word went wrong again. I'm sorry~ I'm really sorry. In conclusion, the cause of the backwardness of hair transplantation in Korea can be compressed into (1) social (market) conditions, (2) medical system problems, (3) internal problems in hair transplantation hospitals due to the characteristics of surgery.

Despite the backwardness of hair transplantation due to this cause, I think the dynamic factor that has greatly developed hair transplantation in Korea is our brave hair loss person. People with hair loss who are willing to take the risk of becoming clinical tests must be the number one contributor to the development of hair transplantation in Korea. As a result, many poor hair loss people who have paid a lot of money to support clinical tests have gradually gained skills through various trials and errors, and the doctors who are now specializing in medicine have been crying a lot, haven't they really been eating pheasants and eating eggs? Professor Kim Jung-chul, the originator of Korea's hair transplant surgery, is still working hard, and the same technology concerns are made. Don't you think it's the best in the world and mislead the hair loss people and cause them any more pain? Don't you think it's the least of a medical professional to invest as much as the sin of the money you've earned to maintain the employment system at all times to acquire and distribute the latest hair transplant technology and pay back the hair loss at a low price and high quality? If I'm wrong, what is the true nature of the world's best hair transplant technology, and where on earth are the surgical results, research papers, experimental data, and academic data that are worthy of the best in the world?

Today, science and technology are changing and developing day by day. Our hair-related medical community can only hold the key to the future if we look a little longer, not just in front of our eyes. In my opinion, in the near future, we will soon develop the amazing hair loss treatment we hope for, genetic manipulation, cloning, and biotechnology. If our medical community looks a little further and researches it and develops innovative drugs or fundamental treatments, wouldn't it be possible to win the Nobel Prize and hold the tremendous wealth and honor of standing in the same ranks as Bill Gates?

Hair healthcare workers, please don't let the frog out of the well and get bald by mistake, just look for a little closer to you and stop crying our hairless people with simple dreams and listen to your conscience to make our earnest dreams come true with a stable procedure and a lower cost. It is appalling to even recall that we now have to undergo several more hair transplants in the near future to address hair loss. So, please break the mold of snacks that have been trapped in the narrow world of the well and breathe with the world with a broader perspective so that even a drop of oil can be added to the candles of our many hairless people's earnest wish. Members of Daemo, it is very lengthy because you are emotionally excited. There are so many things I want to talk about. But I have to cut it down here, right? Anyway, thank you for reading this rambling long article, and next time... The next series...

*** I reiterate that I have no intention of slandering a specific person or a specific organization. Even if it is unintentionally illuminated like that, I bow down once again and apologize respectfully.*** [This post was copied from 2006-06-2204:32:55 hair transplant by the CEO]
