What is hair transplantation?
Treatments


Hair plantation is the process of transferring the hair taken from the strong and genetically programmed against hair loss region of the patient to the hairless region by harvesting them in a sterile operating room environment. In the first years of its a pplication it was used for men to for the male type hair loss but now it is also used for women as well. The harvested hair is called graft and is taken from the genetically coded no-loss region. The area that consists of these hairs called the donor area. Since the grafts collected here are resistant to loss, they do not lose their properties once moved and protect their genes even when applied to the hair loss region. So, in fact, as you might have guessed, hair does not fall due to the skin or a specific area, but the genes of the hair root. In addition to hair plantation, this can also be used for eyelashes, eyebrows, side burns, beards and mustaches.
Hair transplants can also be used to address hair loss caused by scarring such as on the beard or eyebrows. Healthy-growing hair follicles are harvested from a donor site and moved to the recipient area where they are implanted. The donor site is usually identified at the back of the head where it’s less visible.

What is Hipec ?
Treatments


Each year, many patients worldwide are confronted with a diagnosis of “peritoneal cancer”. This includes patients with rare diseases such as malignant mesothelioma and pseudomyxomaperitonei (PMP). More often, peritoneal cancer arises from metastases from cancer elsewhere in the body. Fortunately, the treatment for patients with peritoneal cancer is evolving and improving.

Hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) is a cancer treatment that involves filling the abdominal cavity with chemotherapy drugs that have been heated. Also known as “hot chemotherapy,” HIPEC is performed after the surgeon removes tumors or lesions from the abdominal area. Unlike systemic chemotherapy delivery, which circulates throughout the body, HIPEC delivers chemotherapy directly to cancer cells in the abdomen.

HIPEC has several advantages over standard chemotherapy:

  • It is a single treatment done in operating room, instead of multiple treatments over several weeks.
  • %90 of the drug stays within the abdominal cavity, decreasing toxic effects on rest of the body.
  • It allows for a more intense dose of chemotherapy.

 

Treatment for peritoneal cancer is offered only at institutions with sufficient knowledge and skills to achieve optimal surgical results as well as safe administration of intraperitoneal chemotherapy.

What is In vitro fertilization (IVF)
Treatments


In vitro fertilization (IVF) involves fertilization outside the body in an artificial environment. IVF was first successfully used for human infertility in 1977 at Bourne Hall in Cambridge, England. To date, tens of thousands of babies have been delivered worldwide as a result of IVF treatment. Over the years, the procedures to achieve IVF pregnancy have become increasingly simpler, safer and more successful.

In vitro fertilization (IVF) is a type of assisted reproductive technology used to help achieve pregnancy. In vitro literally means “in glass” and fertilization is the joining of sperm and egg cells. Normally, fertilization takes place inside a woman’s body. During IVF, sperm and egg cells are combined in a laboratory dish and fertilization takes place outside the body. The resulting embryo(s) may then be transferred back to a woman’s uterus to develop into a baby.

Some common reasons why IVF may be required include:

• blocked fallopian tubes
• fallopian tube damage/tubal factor/tubal ligation
• endometriosis
• polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS)
• increased difficulty of conceiving naturally as women age
• unexplained infertility
• uterine fibroids
• recurring miscarriage
• potential genetic issues where embryo screening may help.

What is Mammaplasty (Breast Enhancement)?
Treatments


Mammaplasty (also called mammoplasty or mastoplasty) refers to a group of surgical procedures, the goal of which is to reshape or otherwise modify the appearance of the breast.
Breast enhancement surgeries typically can be divided into three general categories: augmentation, reduction, and lifting. Each type of surgery is explained.
Breast augmentation - also known as augmentation mammoplasty - is a cosmetic surgery procedure to increase breast size and enhance breast shape, typically through the placement of silicone or saline breast implants. From a cosmetic surgeon’s perspective, the ultimate goal of breast augmentation is to enhance a patient’s natural proportions and create a more symmetrical, aesthetically pleasing breast profile. The exact procedure is tailored to meet a woman’s individual needs.
For some women, breast augmentation is a way to feel more confident. For others, it's part of rebuilding the breast for various conditions.
Breast augmentation might help you:

  • Enhance your appearance if you think your breasts are too small or that one is smaller than the other
  • Adjust for a reduction in the size of your breasts after pregnancy
  • Correct uneven breasts after breast surgery for other conditions
  • Improve your self-confidence

Breast reduction also known as reduction mammaplasty, is a surgery used to remove excess fat, tissue and skin from the breasts. If you have large breasts, you might choose to have breast reduction surgery to ease discomfort or to achieve a breast size proportionate to your body.
If you have disproportionately large breasts that are causing neck pain, back pain, or other physical symptoms, you may be considering breast reduction surgery.
Breast reduction surgery might also help improve your self-image and your ability to participate in physical activities.
Most women who get breast reduction are very satisfied with the results. Men with conditions such as gynecomastia (in which male breasts are abnormally enlarged) may also get breast reduction.

Breast lift — also known as mastopexy — is a surgery performed by a plastic surgeon to change the shape of your breasts. During a breast lift, excess skin is removed and breast tissue is reshaped to raise the breasts.
Breast lift surgery won't significantly change the size of your breasts. However, a breast lift can be done in combination with breast augmentation or breast reduction.

You might consider a breast lift if:

  • Your breasts sag — they've lost shape and volume, or they've gotten flatter and longer
  • Your nipples — when your breasts are unsupported — fall below your breast creases
  • Your nipples and areolae point downward
  • Your areolae have stretched out of proportion to your breasts
  • One of your breasts falls lower than the other

What is eyelid surgery (Blepharoplasty)?
Treatments


Eyelid surgery, or blepharoplasty, is a surgical procedure to improve the appearance of the eyelids.
Surgery can be performed on the upper lids, lower lids or both.
This surgery is usually done for cosmetic reasons. It's also an effective way to improve sight in older people whose sagging upper eyelids get in the way of their vision. Whether you want to improve your appearance or are experiencing functional problems with your eyelids, eyelid surgery can rejuvenate the area surrounding your eyes.

What eyelid surgery can treat?

  • Loose or sagging skin that creates folds or disturbs the natural contour of the upper eyelid, sometimes impairing vision
  • Fatty deposits that appear as puffiness in the eyelids
  • Bags under the eyes
  • Drooping lower eyelids that reveal white below the iris
  • Excess skin and fine wrinkles of the lower eyelid

An eye lift can open up the eye area, giving you a more youthful appearance as well as a more alert expression. In some cases, people have eyelid surgery to improve their vision, which may be obstructed by the upper lid. It may also be done in conjunction with other facial plastic surgery procedures like rhinoplasty (nose job), facelift, or brow lift.

What is Rhinoplasty?
Treatments


What is Rhinoplasty?
Rhinoplasty (reshaping the nose) is a facial cosmetic procedure, usually performed to enhance the appearance or reconstruct the nose. A rhinoplasty is simply plastic surgery performed on the nose. There are usually two reasons this type of facial plastic surgery is performed. The first is to correct breathing difficulties or damaged airways, and the second reason is for aesthetic purposes.
Rhinoplasty could improve one’s looks, self-confidence or health. As with all facial plastic surgery, good health and realistic expectations are prerequisites. The goal of rhinoplasty is to improve the nose aesthetically (without creating a "surgical" look) in order to create harmony with other facial features. Additionally, many patients have a chin augmentation in conjunction with rhinoplasty to create a better balance of features.
By reshaping the nasal structures, including bone, cartilage, and skin, a cosmetic surgeon can help achieve one or more of the following:

  • Straighten a crooked nose
  • Smooth a prominent bump in the bridge of the nose
  • Narrow a nose that is too wide for the face
  • Restore symmetry to the nose following injury
  • Reduce the length of an over-protruding nasal tip
  • Refine the size of a bulbous nasal tip
  • Reduce the size of a nose that is too large
  • Correct breathing problems by opening up blocked nasal passages

Rhinoplasty can change the size, shape or proportions of your nose. It may be done to repair deformities from an injury, correct a birth defect or improve some breathing difficulties.
There are a variety of types of rhinoplasty and techniques, which are suitable for different goals:
Open Rhinoplasty During this procedure, the incisions are made in the vertical strip of skin separating your nostrils (the columella). Your surgeon then lifts the skin and soft tissue to view the inside of your nose and perform the reshaping. This is the technique used for most major nose surgeries.
Closed Rhinoplasty To perform a closed rhinoplasty, your surgeon makes an incision within your nose. The skin is then separated from the bone and cartilage. The exposed bone and/or cartilage can then be removed, reshaped, augmented or rearranged. The closed technique is used mainly for minor nose surgeries.
Filler Rhinoplasty Injectable fillers such as Juvederm and Restylane can be used to fill depressions, restore symmetry and/or correct other imperfections on your nose. This is also called a non-surgical nose job. The results are not permanent.
Revision Rhinoplasty These secondary surgeries are performed to correct problems that occur or remain after a previous rhinoplasty. The problems can be minor and just require a touch-up, or they can be major, which can make the revision rhinoplasty much more complicated, risky and costly.

Ethnic Rhinoplasty Ethnic plastic surgery is growing in popularity, and ethnic rhinoplasty is one of the most popular cosmetic procedures requested among African-Americans, Asians and Hispanic-Americans. Most individuals want to subtly enhance their ethnicity, not obscure it.

What is Ophthalmology?
Treatments


Ophthalmology is the study of the eye’s anatomy, genetics, illness, and other disorders. The term ophthalmology originated from the Greek words ophthalmos which means “eye” and logos which means “word.” This literally means the “science of eyes.” People refer to a certified doctor for this science as an ophthalmologist.

Loss of vision can be caused be a number of things. Acute or sudden vision loss can be caused by a retinal detachment, a stroke in the vessels in the eye or in patients with diabetes from bleeding in the eye, whereas slow vision loss is most commonly caused by cataracts, glaucoma or macular degeneration. Patients with slow vision loss often don’t notice it until it becomes severe. This is one reason why routine eye exams are useful as they can help to detect these changes earlier. At Pietra Health, we partner with the most experienced eye surgeons around the world. These specialists perform eye surgery for up to 80% less than the average cost in the Europe, UK and US.

Modern methods of ophthalmology are based on laser and micro surgical technologies, which enable not only to perform vision correction, but also to cure the most complicated eye diseases in any age. Progressive ophthalmological methods of diagnostics and treatment facilitate early detection of eye diseases, effective prevention procedures and timely successful treatment.

Some common procedures include:

Cataract surgery
Retina and vitreous surgeries
Refractive surgery
Pediatric eye surgery
Corneal surgery

For many people who suffer from a decrease in visual acuity as a result of cataracts or glaucoma there are surgical options available. Ninety percent of patients can achieve a corrected vision of 20/40 or better as a result of cataract surgery. During the procedure the cataract is removed and, in most cases, replaced with an artificial lens called an intraocular lens implant (IOL). The IOL is typically used to correct cataracts, and in some cases also short-sightedness and long-sightedness but it doesn’t correct astigmatism. LASIK can correct short-sightedness, long-sightedness, and astigmatism.

What is Orthopedics?
Treatments


Orthopaedic surgery is an operative procedure performed by a qualified orthopaedist specialist or orthopaedic surgeon to treat musculoskeletal problems affecting the bones, joints, muscles, tendons and ligaments caused by accident, trauma, injury or chronic condition. Orthopaedic surgery can also correct problems of the nervous system linked to the spinal column, as well as congenital defects and musculoskeletal issues caused by aging.

What Orthopedic Procedures Are Available?
Orthopedic surgery can be used to treat everything from minor issues like a sprained ankle to complex procedures like a hip replacement. As well as sports injuries, sprains and broken bones, orthopedic surgery can effectively treat infections, bone tumors, spine diseases, congenital conditions, joint problems like arthritis, and degenerative diseases like osteoporosis. The most commonly performed orthopedic surgeries include knee replacement, hip replacement, shoulder replacement, carpal tunnel release, spine surgery, construction of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), the major stabilizing ligament of the knee. Artificial joints have a lifespan of 10 to 20 years so if you undergo joint replacement surgery and you lead a very active life or you are obese you will likely need another replacement later in life.

International patients will find top of the line orthopedists in Turkey, all certified and each specialized in different procedures to treat degenerative diseases and injury related ailments, and some of these procedures are minimally invasive, which means the patient can recover in just a few days, enjoying the best touristic destinations in the country.

How Does It Work?
Orthopaedic surgeons provide an extensive range of treatments. However, before a definitive treatment is suggested, patients are made to undergo extensive testing to determine the nature of the bone or muscle problem. The orthopaedist will ask you about the history of the disorder, previous treatment sought, and other pertinent information related to your condition. You may be asked to undergo tests such as x-rays, computed tomography (CT) scan, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), blood tests or myelograms to elucidate the extent of the problem in detail.

What is Organ Transplantation?
Treatments


Organ transplantation is the process of surgically transferring a donated organ to someone diagnosed with organ failure. It is the most effective treatment method used in patients with terminal organ failure for whom it is not possible to treat due to various reasons. In Turkey, organ transplantation operations have started gaining widespread acceptance with the first successful kidney transplantation performed in the year 1975.

In modern medicine the organs that can be transplanted today are; the heart, lungs, heart-lungs simultaneously, liver, kidneys, pancreas and intestines. While the success rate of liver, heart and kidney transplant operations is high in Turkey lately pancreas transplants are also being performed.

Organ transplants are fairly common these days, but it wasn't so long ago (1960s) that most transplant patients had very poor chances of survival. Today however, thanks to medical discoveries, drugs and experience, organ transplant patients have a much higher survival rate, thanks to drugs like cyclosporine, which help to reduce rejection and infection. Today, transplants of many major organs, as well as anatomical parts like hands and jaws are almost commonplace. Scientific research and development offers today’s transplant candidates and recipients greater than average survival rates for heart, liver, lung and other vital organ transplants. Even so, researchers are looking into new drugs and treatments (including adult stem cell) to help further reduce chances of rejection and increase survival rates for transplant recipients.
