Is this proof Follica will not work? (Hair Multiplication & Research)

Once again,I am not here to start an argument.I too yearn for hm but just calling it how I see it.I know I am wasting my time posting this & I know I will be abused by every delusional tool who thinks hm is days away from being released but.....

Everyone from Aderans to Dr Balzan & even ICX has been able to make new hairs grow.But the one thing that all of these companies have been unable to do is control the direction of hair growth.This has been the single greatest stumbling block for everyone.NO ONE CAN CONTROL THE DIRECTION OF HAIR GROWTH.

We have all seen follica on TV. Here is the link 2 the video 2 refresh your memory. http://youtube.com/watch?v=V64ht1r8APo

Look at the FLUFF they have grown on the back of the mouse. Notice anything? The ‘hairs’ are all growing in different directions.What makes you think that they will be able to make it grow in a normal direction in a human being if it wont grow in normal directions in mice?

Follica will have the same problem as all the other potential miracle cures have had.Is the proof that this will not work right before our eyes? Are we too desperate & blind to see the writing on the wall ?

Please only respond if you have an intelligent rebuttal.Don’t bore me with your usual bullshyte that does nothing more than divert attention away from the fact that we are all f u c k ed.

BTW,where is Aderans ? Why are they so quite? Have they given up all together?

Quercetin: http://bestherbalsolutions.co.uk/html/quercetin.html
I'm sure if you live in USA you can find it there too.

About the healing contamination. I really don't know. I used emu oil as the carrier on my last wound. And I didn't have quercetin.
My opinion as an engineer, because I'm not a doctor, is that the process is not a finely tuned balance of chemicals at all. The majority of work is done by your own body; the ultimate machine. I like to think of the analogy of a switch for the machine. You push the switch to start the process. There is a threshold pressure in order for the switch to engage to initiate the process. Any pressure over and beyond that does not change the degree of operation. The machine will continue along it's preprogrammed/wired sequence. But pressure below the threshold value results in a non-operation.
I think that the body requires the presence of the chemicals stated in the patent (and probably not all of them. Some of them are probably 'smoke up the arse' ploys) and this is enough to tell the body to fire up and put it's house in order. A trigger. Like our analogous switch. And like that switch, oversaturation of the trigger will not result in an improved operation.
I know what I've written probably sounds like a load of bollocks but these are the terms in which I think.
Let's hope we find the answer soon because our commercial solution keeps getting mysteriously delayed. Almost like certain people with heavy financial sway do not want a solution to appear on the market. A licence to print money for a company that comes up with proof of concept but no final product maybe... :)

The point is that we're unlikely to have any direction problems. Not direction troubles, not color/characteristics . . . probably not even density troubles.



It just has to WORK at all, and the characteristics will probably be fine.

And the new hairs may or may not have any more DHT resistance than the hairs originally had at that spot.

we will just have to wait for the human trials.. chances are if it grew at different angles on the mouse then it will so on the human skin... so u think that they wont market it just becuase of the hair direction? to me the hair direction only effects the people who want short hair becuase u can see more of the scalp. but i bet many more people would want longer hair due to the fact that they would have more hair and it would be thicker becuase of follicas procedure :) lol. i think inspite of hair direction they would still make it avaliable... its like hair transplant, people know that the doner hairs wont grow back and thier potential scaring involved but guess what. they still do it. that why i think they would still release it as a commercial product.

YOUR MAKING HAIR DIRECTION OUR BIGGEST PROBLEM? YOU MUST BE KIDDING ME... HEY I WOULD TAKE A FUZZYYY MESSED UP DENSE SCALP THEN A BALD ONE ANY DAY..HECKK I COULD LOOK LIKE ALBERT EINSTEIN AND I WOULDNT CARE SO LONG AS I HAVE LOTS OF HAIR.. AND PLUS THIERS MANY THING U CAN SO TO IT SO FIX THAT....SOMEONE ALREADY SAID GELL.... OR LETTING IT GROW OUT MAKING THEM EASIER TO MANIPULATE AND COMB. PLUS I BET THEY WOULD EVEN CREATE AND GREAT SOLUTION FOR IT. BUT I DONT CONSIDER IT A PROBLEM. THE PROBLEM IS GETTING THE HAIR IN THE FIRST PLACE. AND BY HAIR I MEAN A DENSE SCALP LIKE IN THE TEEN YEARS..

NO ONE? The body seems to do good job directing hair growth AND the Follica process pretty-much coaxes the body to do all the hard work itself.

My fear is that they wont be able to reproduce what happened for that man ..Yes Gefitinib is a key component of the Cotsarelis Patent..but the pathways are so complex..and there are so many things that can go wrong...As for the rejuvenation, correct me if Im wrong but the Follica technology is all about de novo hair...Rejuvenation happened to be more difficult than de novo hair it seems. After all this is the biggest hurdle for ICX .

@ cal

We already have proof!

The guy on gefitinib grew a good amount of hair, in normal direction and with good density - that alone is proof enough! Looking at that picture you don't even need the hair counts, I'd kill for density like that.

Follica is doing the same exact thing, albeit in a more controlled and efficient manner. After seeing that guy's pic, I can't think of a single reason why Follica will fail. The only concern I have is that the procedure creates brand new hair and I'd much prefer rejuvenating the minitaurized ones.

Is this proof Follica will not work?

I'm not so sure that growth direction has been such a problem for everyone.


It was major with cloners and manual transplanters, that's not doubt. But I haven't heard of direction troubles with RE-growth techniques like ICX was doing. Never when it was growing from a real living human head.

In fact I haven't heard of any of the regrowers talking about any characteristics issues at all. (At least nothing that can't be accounted for with the hairs being "younger" or the miniaturization being only partway reversed back to full size. Nobody has said anything about getting DIFFERENT hairs, like going from curly blond to straight brunette.)


I cound be wrong, but I believe scalp hairs' direction characteristics are like all the other specifics - they're a product of the DNA instructions in the skin itself.
