The wounds have to be 2mm in diameter for the skin to heal in such a way as to produce a new hair follicle. In experiments, when wnt7a was introduced in the healing.........about 13 times as many new follicles formed (the first patent has this graph on one of the last pages). Inhibiting epidermal growth factor during the healing time after skin re-epilithialization (about day 3 post wound to day five post wound in human skin depending on the severity of the wound) also increases the amount of hair that will be made.

There have been a few people who inject minoxidil with syringes, but the needle pricks would probably have to be pretty big to induce this kind of response. Whatever you do at home wont be nearly as good as what the professional researchers will be able to come up with and include in their "kits" to apply post dermabrasion. Its worked on human skin grafted onto a mouse..............but in humans period is another matter. All we can really do is wait.
