Folica and existing follicles (Hair Multiplication & Research)

» I think existing follicles extend something like 3-4 mm down into the skin.

» I see so many possibilities:
»
» -- Wipe out existing follicles? Create new ones on their sites?
»
» -- Create new ones between the existing ones? (Doesn't that have to mean
» we'd end up with MORE than original density?)
»
» -- Heal the existing follicles along with new ones? ONLY heal the
» existing follicles and not create any fully-formed new ones?

The way I see it is that your body refers back to your original 'blueprint' so it checks ALL follicles. If some of these existing ones are beginning to miniaturise but are still producing hair, they'll get a boost in the form of rejuvenation to 'commission' them back to their original spec. That's the way I see it anyway. No, I'm not a doctor. I'm an engineer.
