Acell (Hair Multiplication & Research)

posted by cal, 12.05.2008, 02:14

I'm not arguing that dermabraded/Acelled skin is "safe and effective" as a general description. I just think it would be a lot safer and easier to try it on abraded skin than using Acell on open bleeding HT extraction wounds.

Follica and Cotsarelis believe that dermabrasion alone is a significant enough "wound" to regenerate follicles. I can't see the logic for ignoring the possibility that Acell could work with nothing more than dermabrasion too.

It's sensibly the first thing to test Acell for. Getting 10,000-30,000 FUE grafts transplanted over the course of several years is not a small operation. It's not cheap, not quick, not easy, not consistent, and not without some surgical risk involved.
