Or are we doomed forever?
Dutasteride made my hair worse after 1.5 years. Imagine being in my seat lol. Nothing works.Or are we doomed forever?
So if I'm understanding this correctly the idea would be to harvest from donor. Do transplant to balding areas. Use verteporfin on scarred donor to regenerate new follicles ? So theoretically you could to some degree replish donor making more transplants possible?I'm somewhat surprised more people don't discuss Verteporfin. The most recent images released from Stanford's dermatology department in their anti-scaring tests with pigs seemed positive (and did show greater regrowth of hair follicles compared to baseline). The fact that its an FDA approved drug would, potentially, allow for its immediate use off label by Hair Surgeons (although I'm certainly not an expert in medical regulation of off-label drug use in US/Europe). If it can actually allow for regrowth of Hair Follicles removed during surgery, you'd be looking at an actualy cure whenever there was enough evidence to convince Hair Transplant Surgeons to start using it.
That's the, best-case, idea. It still remains to be seen whether that would occur, or you'd just get hairless non-scarred skin. Regardless, I'm surprised it's not really discussed on this forum besides a thread a few months back.So if I'm understanding this correctly the idea would be to harvest from donor.

Dr Taleb Barghouthi, he did the first test yesterday so I guess we'll know within 2-3 months?Can you name the surgeon and when the results are expected?
