“I had 5041 BHT all from my legs with Dr Arvind in New Delhi. I have shed the majority of my grafts and unfortunately the picture doesn’t show the full story. I have a large number of tiny hairs sprouting and I can feel stubble over most of my scalp when I rub my fingers lightly over it. The redness on my scalp is not noticeable to the naked eye, and from a short distance it looks as if I have a light rash on my legs. The upper calf and lower thigh areas have healed much quicker than other areas. …”

Research – Hair follicle stem cells in the lower bulge form the secondary germ, a biochemically distinct but functionally equivalent progenitor cell population, at the termination of catagen.
It seems that the dermal papilla derive from stem cells originating in the bulge region of the hair follicle. This transformation occurs during the catagen stage. As the stem cells morph into dermal papilla, they lose some of their stem cell qualities. However, if the bulge stem cells become injured (from plucking or whatever), the dermal papilla can morph back into stem cells and move to the bulge region to replace the injured/lost stem cells.

All Natural & Supplements:  Protandim to be Released Feb 2005 ! If you believe that anti-oxidants can help fight hairloss, you may want to look into the Feb 2005 release of Protandim.  According to the distributor, this product has been demonstrated to decrease oxidation by as much as 60% in humans in just the first 30 days of intake. Protandim is not an antioxidant.  It works by inducing the body to produce more of its own natural antioxidant enzymes, eg: Superoxide Dismutase (SOD), Catalase (CAT) and Glutathione Peroxidase (GPX) etc. to fight oxidation.  Protandim allows these enzymes to be produced within the cells where oxidative stress actually occurs.  This is in contrast to traditional antioxidant supplements which have to pass significant digestive and absorption barriers.

Here’s a brief description about this supplement: “Beta-sitosterol is the active ingredient in saw palmetto berries, which have been used for centuries to treat patients with prostate and urinary problems.  The active ingredient in saw palmetto as well as other herbal remedies such as pygeum, stinging nettle, and pumpkin seeds is beta-sitosterol.  One capsule usually contains 300mg of beta-sitosterol. You would have to eat 2 lbs. of saw palmetto to get the same amount of beta-sitosterol one 300mg capsule.  This is 3000 times more potent than saw palmetto.”.  Some recent comments from people who reported good results with this supplement.

Topical:  Should Coal Tar Products Carry Cancer Warnings?  
Many of us use shampoos formulated with coal tar to treat dandruff and certain scalp inflammatory conditions. There are discussions whether topical treatments containing coal tar are dangerous. There are in fact studies which show that coal tar can cause cancer if applied topically. For example, a study conducted by University Medical Center Nijmegen, The Netherlands suggested that “because of the potential carcinogenicity of coal tar, as clearly demonstrated both in animal studies and from occupational exposure, careful consideration should be given to the use of coal tar preparations in dermatological practice.”

Courtesy of TAMGOHL “On a normal head of hair, hairs achieve their maximum diameter when they are at approximately 25% of their eventual length.  After they hit their peak thickness, hair shaft diameters decline little by little over the remaining length of the growth phase.  Thus, for the vast majority of the growth phase, hairs are actually getting thinner.  Also, hair shaft diameter correlates with hair length -- i.e., longer hair is thicker hair.”

The study concluded that “the probability of male pattern hair loss is dependent on family history and age. Hair loss in a man's father also appears to play an important role in increasing a man's risk of hair loss, either in conjunction with a history of hair loss in the mother or hair loss in the maternal grandfather.”

All Natural – Gynostemma or Jiaogulan "Guiyang Medical College study showed that with the increase of age there was a proportionate decrease in the body’s production of SOD.
The importance of inducing endogenous (the body’s production) SOD, particularly as we age, should not be underestimated. Helping the body to increase its production of SOD is significant because scientists have demonstrated that exogenous SOD (ex. Supplements) when administrated orally is disintegrated in the gastrointestinal tract. And even if the intestinal wall absorbed some SOD molecules, they would be rejected by the immune system. Therefore, stimulation of one's own endogenous SOD is what makes jiaogulan so effective for maintaining good health (and for faster recovery after sports or intense activity"

Hair Transplant - Dr. Cole:  Repair Case – Strip Repair Case, Dr. Cole’s Patient.  
This is a class 6 repair case.  The patient used to wear a hair piece. He had one session of mini-grafts placed into holes in 2003.  He could tell immediately that this procedure would yield an unnatural, pluggy result so he rapidly sought a repair solution. 

Dr. Cole performed 3000 grafts from the front to the back. In a single procedure he has obtained excellent coverage in the front.  The rear of the scalp needs one more session (the back or crown almost always requires 2 to 3 times as much work to achieve the same degree of coverage). Most of the grafts were dense packed into the front. 

Dr. Cole and his staff also needed to deal with big plugs and the results are showing a softer natural look. The patient can live a normal life without the hard maintenance of a hair piece and he is very excited about his 2nd procedure.

Hair Transplant - Dr. Arvind:  Hyper-acute Angle Placement for Hairline Restoration. 
For some patients with extensive thinning, eg: a norwood 5 or 6, Dr.Arvind advocates the formation of recipient sites at a much more acute angle for such patients.  Instead of having the hair growing at 30 degrees to the scalp, they almost lie flat, i.e.,15-20 degrees).  According to Dr. Arvind Poswal, the rationale for such an acute angulation in hairline placement is that it makes the hair almost lie on the scalp leading to a greater degree of coverage than would be possible if the hair were, comparatively speaking, standing up.  Dr. Arvind Poswal thinks that hyperacute angulation is especially helpful in those with extensive hairloss and a limited donor supply.

Dr. Arvind offers pictorial comparison of the FUE donor area 7 days post op WITH and WITHOUT use of donor sealant. Donor sealing is a new approach some FUE doctors are using. According to Dr. Arvind Poswal, while at present he does not think that donor sealing is a must, but it is beneficial in people with whitish or darker complexion. In these patients, the pinpoint hypopigmentation may be visible (on close
scrutiny after shaving the donor area) In people with fair skin it will
probably be immaterial. Click here for photos and full commentary by Dr. Arvind Poswal

Hair Transplant: Hair Transplant Case Study: Body Hair to Scalp Transplant – Dr. Arvind Poswal. Dr. Arvind Poswal provides in-depth documentation, photos and discussion about one of his patients who had body hair transplantation done. The grafts were taken from the chest of his patient and transplanted on a small vacant area of scalp to be able to easily observe the growth without confusing them with the scalp hair. That was done on the right side of hairline. Simultaneously FUSE (FUE) grafts from scalp were placed on the left side of the hairline.

According to Dr. Arvind Poswal, the questions that need to be answered for BHT:

1). Yield--how much %age of grafts will survive and at what duration post op will the growth start.

2). Will the body hair assume characteristics of scalp hair.

3). Donor area scarring.

Dr. Arvind Poswal’s findings:

1.Yield- The yield of the transplanted body hair and the time taken for them to start growing is at par with the transplanted scalp hair.

2.The body hair have grown longer on the scalp than they grew on chest.

3.The donor area -chest-shows mild hypertrophic scars (whitish spots).

Though the patient was not concerned about that scarring but Dr. Arvind Poswal has now adopted the policy of using donor sealant to minimize/ get rid of this too in all body hair cases. Click here to view photos and forum discussion:
