» cal, are these follica pics that u posted? they are amazing.
No , those are patients who got unasked for hair growth while one Getfinib…The guy of the scalp hair growth was a cancer patient on Geftinib . He is, sadly, dead now. But in case you are interested the doctor who was supervising him said the he was able to attend the wedding of his daughter while enjoying this surprise cosmetic gift before he dies

» cal, are these follica pics that u posted? they are amazing.
I know you’ve been away, but I guess you’ve seen this. Here it is again for the millionth time. Everybody here seen it already.
how can you possibly determine the direction? you cant, I guarantee you this will not be able to be controlled if the direction is off or incorrect, you look like a freak
Hangin, I think you already know the answer to that question. We’ve been over that issue again & again on here numerous times.
I think you just want to keep throwing stuff like that out in case nobody bothers to re-type the answer every time. I think you’d rather spread your viewpoint than give people correct info.
(sigh)
Here we go, AGAIN:
The hairs regenerated by wounding methods are done by the body itself. The body’s own instructions (in the DNA of the skin) are governing the characteristics of the hairs. Curl, direction, color, etc.
It would be just as difficult for the body to do it wrong as it would to do it right. If the body is gonna do it differently than what was originally growing there, it would take another set of DNA instructions . . . from where?
Let’s say you get a burn wound and the doctors decide to take a small sample of your skin to regrow you a skin-graft in a petri dish. Do you worry about whether the regrown skin will match the color of the rest of your skin? Do you worry about whether it will be African-looking dark skin when you’re a Caucasian?
Hell no.
You might worry about whether the skin graft will grow to large enough size or something, but you won’t worry about the graft disobeying your DNA’s orders and doing something DIFFERENT.
The hair direction isn’t governed by something deep down inside the mechanics of the follicle. It’s governed by where (location & angle) the follicle is formed. And THAT set of instructions is in the skin itself.
Obviously we don’t know FOR SURE yet. We don’t know anything for sure yet.
But Folica has said the hairs are regrowing normally and they’re not worried about it. And it doesn’t seem to go wrong on the people that have regrown an occasional new hair from wounding (that’s A LOT of people when you’re just talking about occasional single hairs).
So I’m not gonna worry about it.

Yes. Reserved optimism is the key. Let’s not get too excited. We know it works but we don’t know how well it works yet. Let’s keep level-headed.
As for this new-found fame, I’m not very comfortable with it. But I will keep you fellas updated, good or bad.

where are the pics from follica results? i would like to see them
Nice try.
Look, if you’re trying to push me to the the point where you “win” the argument out of my laziness, you’re there. I’m not gonna bother to keep digging this stuff up for you.
But there is at least one pic circulating of the regrowth from the mouse experiments (I think it was on the human skin graft in that case.) the pic was circulating on here months ago. The hair direction looked fine.
Believe whatever you want. State whatever opinion you want. Argue whatever opinion you want. But please don’t knowingly mislead other people about this stuff.
Yea your right Cal, there is a picture circulating and it is a picture of a mouse with human skin grafted on with thick, dense human hair growing out of it.
I can’t be bothered to find is at the moment but iirc it is shown in the youtube video posted above.

I certainly wish you and anyone who experiments with a treatment all the best of luck. But I think we’re still back to the one problem that has persisted yet everyone forgets about when they see a new hair grow where there was nothing before. That problem is density. Let’s face it, no one can deny that there are quite a few treatments that can grow hair where there was none before. For example, we have transplants and FUE, minoxidil, propecia, even some over the counter treatments can grow SOME hair it seems, such as revivogen (unless their pics are fake) and yes, maybe even using sandpaper on our shiny heads. BUT, take a look at the difference between the area of the head that is DHT resistant and the treated area. No matter what we do, it’s like our hair looks weak up there… like a lion with no teeth or something. I’m just disgusted with the way it looks on me and everyone else (just being honest). Sure, some people think bald is beautiful but some people also think rats are cute, so I don’t really care about them. However, believe me when I say that when I see a picture of something that actually works I’ll be there cheering with the rest of you. The problem is that every time that happened in the past it was a scam.

» Hi, Baccy, have you ever taken a pic of your scalp before ?
Never. However, ever since I removed the rug five years ago and tried topicals, I’ve scrutinised my scalp every day. I use a mirror so that I can see the entire scalp. You could say that I’m personally aquainted with every hair and follicle on my head. So I recognise newcomers when I see them. All I had before was vellus hair in places. Probably from the minoxidil and other topicals I used in the past. But just like when I first used minoxidil in 1986, vellus hair was quick to appear but didn’t develop any further.
I just hope that these develop as a result of my next experiment later this month.
hey guys,
it looks so bad now. baccy’s experiments are the biggest hope at the moment. why even bother reading this forum. its all a depressing mess. best is not to care about baldness or balding in general. i compliment everyone who doesnt care about it coz you are a lucky one. when will a cure come? 10 , 20, 30 years? hanging is so right! what are we a bunch of freaks that we think that one of these treatments will work. i remember an article of a guy who discussed about buying or not buying intercytex stocks. this was long before we started thinking that it looks bad for ICX. and this guy came to the conclusion that the chance of ICX-TRC working was 20%. he was so right. what can we do? nothing. we can get a hair transplant or use meds which are on the market. fine, but if they stop working then there is nothing.
wow, this is a depressing post. but the truth is depressing.
i was so naive when i first came to hairsite and read about dr. bazan and his experiments and that it would be out in 2004. now is 2008 and it looks like everything is MORE than 5 years away. wow , we go back in time. the more time goes by, the longer we have to wait. it would be funny if it wasnt so depressing. maybe when im as old as ahab, then there will be a cure. oh well, at this time, a bald head will suit me coz it suits grandpa’s.
everyone in here a happy (bald) life!

hey moron i asked you a simple question, where are the pics from the follica results you are bragging about
and you go into a tizzy about it and start spouting off about MOUSE PICS
mouse results are not human results…so follica in other words has not been tested on humans
next question

You are correct HanginInThere. We should be cheerleading you.

get used to your hair, thats what i have done
getting your hopes up that some company will develop something to magically get back your hair…how realistic is that? not very
what is so bad about losing your hair? you guys problem is you compare yourselves to guys more fortunate hair wise…this is a losers game
there is always someone more handsome, more rich, more successful, taller, etc
how about counting your blessings, ever thought of that? the fact you have good friends family, are in good health, you are not in a wheelchair, etc
if you guys want a reality check try flying to another country where people have REAL PROBLEMS. you might just pull your head out and realize how fortunate you are instead of crying about your hair all the time
» hey moron i asked you a simple question, where are the pics from the

Good. Now I can ask you to post your pics. You have a useless regimen which doesn’t do anything. Put up or shut up, baldie. It’s simple: post your pics.
