baccy,
tagohl noted that when wnt was inhibited in days 1-10 in mice, the results were good…
I’d imagine if youd inhibit wnt on days 1-3 (and maybe 4) post wounding, with quercetin post wounding…it might up your results. I think that if you could keep shampoo off it for a week it might be helpful.
A note on caffiene…I dont see why you couldn’t just take a great deal of caffeine internally during this time (it will also help suppress the immune system).
the wounds in the patent, like TAGOHL pointed out, were only 1-2 cms in size, with the new follicles coming near the center of the wounds…Perhaps a great many small abraded areas?
If I were you, and were going about it the way you are. I think I’d try depilation, 3 days, wound—take quercetin or drink a bunch of tea for three days (a lot of quercetin in tea), on day four or five I’d start taking a bunch of milk thistle and maybe use some diluted (in purified water or water that has set out so the chlorine had evaporated) tannic acid. I might take some internal arginine (ups NO), and perhaps some anti-histamine with some fish oil (good anti-inflammatory). I’d avoid washing my noggin’ for 7 or 8 days where I wounded.
I’d like to see you have success in particular, because you really have dove into this head first (no pun intended).
I have a sinking feeling that we are going to find out that the immune system will have to be suppressed in humans for this to go. If not, then why dont people who get sunburned shoulders (thats happened to me several times in my youth) grow hair on them? The one variable that was present in the experiments and the two freak getfitinib growth photos were compromised immune systems (people on getfitinib almost assuredly had been on chemo with very suppressed immunity from the chemo). The SCID mice with human skin ont their backs were SCID mice with no immune systems. EGF-antagonists merely increased the amount of hairs in the little wounds (1-2 cms in circumference, there are 2.54 cm per inch…so this is about half an inch square wounds).
Internal caffeine suppresses immunity somewhat. Binge up on the diet cokes I suppose…
I hope you grow some hair. I sure as hell would be excited if you did, as I’d love to not try it with what I’ll probably try it with in January (4 days of cyclo and getfitinib about 4-days post wounding).
Good luck whenever you try it.
PS…it really is amazing how the skin heals post abrasion. I use prox-n peptides, and you cannot tell that two and a half weeks ago I used a TCA peel up there and did some manual abrasion at all. Skin is smooth…its weird how fast my skin regenerates. I wonder if we will find out someday that bald men’s scalps have too much epidermal growth capabilities and this might have been part of what goes wrong when the skin grows over our noggin’s in fetal development? Just a thought.
PSS…I have had for many years one “whack” hair between one eye and my side hairline. I had been cut there at work (walked into something), and it bled. There is a weird hair there that is about one inch long, the color of my head hair, there to this day. Its got a “curl” thing going on (always did). Its a big thick terminal hair, but doesn’t seem to grow long (considering that its on my temple between my eye and side hair thats not a suprise. That one whack hair is one of the reasons Ive been excited about follica. I didn’t have that thing before that accident…
