omar77,

Welcome to our community.

Did this doctor give any details? Name of the protein? How it supposedly works etc? I know there are a number of future medical treatments in the works. Whether or not they will work is another story.

To learn about how I restored my hair, view my my hair loss website.

Remember, true beauty radiates from within, not from the skin.

I am not a medical professional and my words should not be taken as medical advice. All opinions and views shared are my own.

I didnt watch it all in tv but something about making a scar in the head and spoiling the protein in to the scar.If you search the web with his name you will see details I did it but my English is not so good to understand exactly.If you do it please inform me and all the forum thank you.

Dr George Cotsarelis and colleagues from the Department of Dermatology, Kligman Laboratories, University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine, in Philadelphia, US, found that when skin is wounded, the cells of the epidermis take on the properties of stem cells and generate new hair follicles that are capable of growing new shafts of hair.

So far the results have only been achieved in mice, but the hope is the same is true of human skin.

The above is copy/paste from the site below.

Thanks Rahul,well start making wounds to your head

if i remember properly, there are couple of guys in other hairsite forums who tried this so called homemade follicular neogenesis. This is based on work by costarelis and fuchs, as well as the new startup Folica inc.

They did this....

1) Mix lithium orotate or chloride (1 1/2 crushed pills) with diemythl sulfoxide or DMSO (1 tsp of liquid) and caffeine (2 tsps of powder). Mix thoroughly in a bowl. These topicals appear to increase WNT signalling.

2. Stir powder mixture into na 8 oz solution of 50% water plus 50% ethyl alcohol. This solution should increase absorption by decreasing particle size of powder. After thoroughly mixing pour solution in a spray bottle or dropper.

3. Use a dermaroller or lancet to gently wound the scalp. This creates wounding on the scalp that MAY mimic the wounding necessary to create-stem cell like conditions for new hair growth.

4. Spray solution directly on scalp.

Do spraying and wounding several times a week

I hope they had few issues as to how deep the wounding should be and use of lithium..

Cheers,
Rahul

hahaha imagine every bald guy in the streets with scars all over head like they've been on a fight

Gives new meaning to the term cutter.

WRONG, Rahul!

They grafted HUMAN SKIN onto the mice and it GREW HAIR!
