You might be familiar with oxygen therapy, referring to boosting your blood with oxygen for an improved healing process. Our clinic has been offering one such therapy, OxyCure, as a supplementary treatment to a traditional hair transplant. Today, we are introducing an alternative to our “good old friend” that matches OxyCure in its scientifically-proven effectiveness & 100% safety.
Without further ado, here are the basics and a bit more you need to know about our nourishing & strengthening therapy that will make you arise from the ashes like a phoenix after your hair transplant surgery.
What Is Medical Ozone?
Medical ozone, a colorless natural gas made of three oxygen molecules, as a 100-years-old disinfectant, not only targets various harmful bacteria and viruses. You will be surprised to hear the rich menu of its curative offerings. Medical ozone is not only a pain-killer but also an immune booster.
In the 1960s, when German scientists made the first big step to propose using ozone in various medical procedures, medical ozone entered the extensive world of medicine. Since then, the application areas of medical ozone stretch from cardiology and ophthalmology to its most recent field of use, hair transplant surgeries. If all that sounds like ancient history, we want to surprise you: scientists recently found that ozone therapy is effective for healing Covid-19 patients.
At our Vera Clinic, we proudly embrace reputable centenarian German école to carry your hair transplant experience to the next level with revitalizing ozone therapy sessions.
Why Is Ozone Therapy Effective?
Ozone therapy as an alternative treatment will nourish your transplanted hair & scalp strengthening hair follicles. Therapy affects vein formation in the area of hair transplant within 48 hours that follow the injection in the scalp. Formed veins will feed transplanted hair follicles, increasing their survival rate. It will increase your hair density. Voila! Your uplifted brand new hair will grow to blossom as never before.
How Does Ozone Therapy Work?
We store ozone in specially-engineered containers of 100 Ccl made of unique material. For injection into your blood, we ozonize the gathered gas mixing it with your blood. The ozone-blood composite injected into your blood cells will make its “trick” in around 15 minutes.
Hemoglobin, a protein inside your red blood cells carrying oxygen from the lungs to tissues and organs, can transport four molecules of oxygen at a time. Ozone increases hemoglobin’s transportation capacity and the pace of the oxygen-binding process by four times. Blood injected into the hair transplant area with a high-pressure diffusion system will “feed” hair follicles in the targeted region. As a result, ozonized blood cells that will form in 48 hours following the hair transplant surgery provide nourishment for hair follicles.
You can think of your body as a giant machine where the oil that assures its operability is your blood. Hence, hair transplant surgery that disturbs one part of the extensive system blocks oil’s way into the heart of the machine. Therefore, we must pump the needed oil immediately. There comes ozone therapy.
Ta-da! Minimized hair loss & quicker achievement of desired results. That is what we call an uplifted hair transplant experience.
How We Apply Ozone Therapy?
Ozone therapy at our clinic is applied in two sessions.
- First Session: Takes place before an hour to the end of hair transplant surgery.
- Second Session: On the day that follows your hair transplant surgery, when you come for your first hair wash.
Ozone therapy has various application methods, such as:
- Major method: The most widespread application of 20 minutes, during which 50-200 ml of your blood is infused into your body as an ozone-oxygen-blood mixture.
- Minor method: It is a less preferred administration of ozone-oxygen mixture into your blood with a smaller proportion of your blood in the blend.
- Delivery to body cavities: Ozone is given to you by rectal/vaginal technique or via ear canal spraying.
- Delivery into the joints & muscles: Ozone gas is injected into your joints & muscles using an appropriate needle.
Note that our medical experts prefer a ‘major method’ of application. You can count on our experience-proven professionalism for the best results of your ozone therapy at Vera Clinic!
