» Follica's idea seems so straight forward & so realistic.It’s almost too
» good to be true.It doesn’t have that high tech fantasy science feel to it
» as TRC has.You know what I mean? It is cutting edge but not like TRC was. I know exactly what you mean. I felt the same way myself until I did a little reading about it and found out that test animals including rabbits have been found to generate de noveau hair follicles in response to wounds as far back as the fifties---but a doctor named William Straihlin (or some such spelling) wrote a paper dissing it all as "hair migrating in" from the sides of the wound and the discovery was just ignored. In the seventies, Arthur Kligman noted some dermabrasion patients (acne) noted some de noveau hair growth on their faces in response to dermabrasion and even wrote of it in a Dermatolgical journal. »

» I know that all my posts involve speculation & no facts but I wonder if

» the drugs & dermabrasion are FDA approved already why would you fear trying
» it on your own body?
Follica's experient number 7 in the patent shows that human skin was grafted to a immunodeficient mouse, wounded.............and hair germs formed 7 days later. That is why I even gave it the time of day initially. That one experiment.

» Follica's idea seems to be the least dangerous(in terms of serious side

» they already know that it can work in humans & they just need to go through
» the human trial process for formality? Yup, this is kinda what I think. Im hoping it can work in the former donor areas of men who have had FUE transplants done, for these are the areas that would produce donor-quality hair. If it can make hair on male-pattern-bald scalp, I imagine that hair will still be suceptible to male hormone and henceforth a man would do well to stay on finasteride after its formation. Id love to be wrong about that though.

» finally be done with these degenerate HTP doctors. More supply usually equals lower prices. Its not a "surgery", just dermabrasion with an egf-inhibiting drug, minox, finasteride, a antihistamine, a retinoid, and a anti-microbial and immunosuppressant topically applied for a mere 10 day period at the longest. Not a big hassle. I dont know if they will have you refrain from washing the scalp during this time though based on some statements in the first patent. On the HT docs.............there are some good ones on this site, but the big chains like Bosley, MHR, NuHart, Elliot and True have caused so much pain and disfigurement, I hope they get left out of any potential procedure. Those outfits have wrecked many lives.
