But if we need to have one treatment per week, and assume we need 8 treatment, we will need to spend at least 2 months time in Mumbai, this is not financially feasible.

So now we can say it's more than minoxidil?
Yes, it's dermastamp too.

Hey what are all those other names in the "growth stage" column and what does the percentage mean?
Right now I'm doing minoxidil 2x EOD and dermarolling (1.5mm only until red, never bleeding) on the off days, so also EOD -- that is basically Dhurat's protocol, no? I also shampoo with Nizoral on the dermaroll days and T-gel on the minoxidil days. we'll see if this does anything. I've responded to minoxidil before.
Dhurat's protocol is to dermaroll once per week, and apply minoxidil twice daily, but not for 24 hours after dermarolling.

These companies need to get their heads out their asses. Conference here, conference there. Maybe this, maybe that.
Really? Only once a week? I think I will start this protocol.

Now is there anyone who got Dr dhurat result by using dermaroller and minoxidil at home ? If no then it's more than minoxidil

AFAIK, after around 10 sessions, they dermaroll once every 2 weeks.
300 maybe for blondes who tend to have thinner hair.
But also, anywhere from 124 to 200 hairs per cm^2 according to densities of 50 hair transplant patients' donor areas (back of their scalps). Or 65 to 85 follicular units per cm^2.

Balding becomes noticeable at around 50% loss.

For an answer to that please visit the locked dermarolling thread... hardly anyone saw noticeable results from this method...

Which means there is something else other than minoxidil
No unprecedented new treatment is going to come from simply combining two already-common treatments. minoxidil is 30-some years old and needling/dermarolling dates back decades too.
We are not the first generation to try to fight baldness. Anything that easy/obvious would have been stumbled onto a long time ago.

I don't care what molecule they use, but I think there is a scientific approach to wounding that can produce much better, and consistent results than a bro at home with a derma roller can...

According to Cotsarelis, since 2013 they believe Fgf9 is increased in skin of mice when skin is wounded resulting in wound-induced hair neogenesis. Apparently we lack Fgf9 in skin after wounding and so WIHN not as robust in humans. He is quoted in Nature journal 2013 that they planned to test Fgf9 in human skin grafted onto mice and then if good results, a clinical trial.
That was four years ago. So what "novel and existing compounds" might Follica be doing clinical trials with in 2017?

All the other names are Puretechs other companies or subsidiaries. Im pretty sure growth stage % is just a measurement of how much each company has developed over the past year. If you look some of the companies with the least Growth are the companies closest to market so im thinking it might be like that cause they can only do so much till the request for approval

They won't stop researching after releasing the treatment, the will continue the research until they get the cure. I thing they got the idea now how to make new hair follicles " wounding "
