Our at-home treatment system is being designed to better deliver a range of compoundsdirectly to the scalp.
I wanna know what these multiple compounds are. Also, a release date would be nice.

They probably want to keep the compounds proprietary for the time being.

They do claim that it will create brand new follicles, which sounds promising if true.. the page looks pretty legitimate right now. Maybe @Admin can get an interview with UPenn or Dr. Cotsarelis into motion?

It says it is clinically proven to work in adult humans, which means they must've done trials. The pictures even make it seem like they have atleast a prototype of what the device is and looks like, even has a box for shipping and storage!

Do you guys think Follica with histogen would be enough for an NW3 or less? Based on what has been stated it sounds like there's real promise combing those two treatments if your hairloss isn't too far along... Thoughts?

This is like some rad joke. I had given up on all three of these guys a few years ago and stopped checking this site. Now all of the sudden it may actually happen.

Either by themselves may even be enough. I think with most of the things coming out over the next 3 years, a worst case scenario for most would probably be needing a small transplant on top of it.

Only an 8 hour drive for me to their headquarters... I've got a feeling they're going to have at least one clinic in Boston. I'll be going ASAP.

So as far as the office visit goes is it just one initial visit then you begin the at home use, or is it an annual office visit? Man it would be sweet if @Admin could talk with these guys, but I remember hell had a rough time at the conference getting cots to talk with him!

Not just Cotsarelis, but everyone involved wouldn't talk. Super secretive.

From their multiple patents, it will be most likely something that can release a lithium ion + EGFR Inhibitors + hair growth-promoting agent

Hi guys :)

1. So the pics of the office and home devices seem to be an illustration and not real devices yet.

2. According to their app's screen capture, the plan for that specific user is not to apply the stuff daily, but only 3 or 4 times a week.

3. The app also says "Remember to use it on all your hair, not just thinning areas".

So all this is is just a dermapen with minoxidil? that's according to this page

https://www.hairlosstalk.com/pipeline/follica-follicle-neogenesis/

No, it's not minoxidil. Minoxidil only allows existing hair follicles to grow and perform better. These guys are claiming that new follicles will be created.

Why do you say they are an illusion? They must have the devices made in some capacity if they've already tested this on humans and had results of neo-genesis.

The patents mentions minoxidil as one of the possible compounds and the testing they have done is via off the shelf devices.

From what I can see the photos on the website is that a picture of the real device.
Looking now again I see that they have one picture of the man in front of the mirror with a device, but it's no so clear.
The tests could have been done manually and not using the final device...

Yes, I don't think so, this is not Minoxidil, or at least "just minoxidil" because they are claiming a "New Hair Growth"
