Thanks for describing the individual uses of the constituents. Strangely enough I was told to start applying the product only after 14-18 days of the transplant procedure after most of the scabs had fallen off.

I googled "Graftcyte", and this link describes a study conducted on its usefulness: GraftCyte Shows Improved Results for Hair Transplants

From the link, a comparison of the results when applying GraftCyte vs placebo:
The two treatments showed no difference when comparing the time after transplantation that hairs started regrowing (5.3 weeks for both), but the GraftCyte side showed better regrowth at 4, 8, and 12 weeks compared to the placebo side

What does this mean?? If hair started growing (why does it say regrow) after 5.3 weeks, how come there was better growth (its says regrowth again!) at 4 weeks for GraftCyte?
Perhaps I am not understanding something correctly?
