Slickers

I completely agree with the sentiment and only an idiot would take the media sensationalism headline 'baldness cure' or indeed the promise of 3 years at face value. But it is yet another interesting development in an exciting new field of medical research.

TDS fair point on the last 50 years in terms of hair transplants but that kind of overlooks that the real developments, as in almost every medical field, have happened in the last 15/ 20 years or even more recently. We can clone animals, undertake major organ transplants successfully.... this year we saw the first truly cosmetically acceptable facial reconstruction, a phenomenal surgical first.

Don't get me wrong, none of these are without their side effects or drawbacks and I too am I a realist, but I do think there's a certain truth in there being more promise in modern developments than those we've seen in the past.

Why wasnt he 'accepted'? You mean he didnt pay the fees?

What do you guys make of this article that a research team in Tokyo Univesity have used stem cells to create hair follicles from scratch....

Now its cooking! Looks at great at just 5 months mate. Bit of couvre and toppik would fill that in to a thick looking full head of hair! Not that I think you need it, another month or two and it's gonna be another impressive Rahal result.

Hows the scar? Do you still have strange feeling in your head/ donor or has it eased?

HfM looking right on track. That's pretty good coverage for 3000 grafts. Things only start kicking in around the 4 month mark so youve plenty more to look forward to....!

Capelli looking great bro, and so early too. Lots to look forwad to. How's the scar looking? Any pics?

Hey England, any pics of your procedure with Feriduni?

Looking good bud. No wonder you don't think about it anymore and what an improvement the last few months have been. More to come you would think !

you're in a great position at just 6.5 months. What's the scar looking like, any pics?

Cueball any update on how your procedure went?

I know, really what is the point in a clinic just posting post op pics. This tells people absolutely nothing

Looking on track. Please keep us updated

Janna thanks, I'm just sent you an email.

Update please!

Hi Janna thanks for the reply. So Acell is used on the recipient area as well as the donor to aid growth as well as healing? Good to hear results to date have been encouraging.How long have SMG been using it?

From a personal point of view, I'm extremely interested in the benefits it may have in healing a linear scar as in oralhair's case since i'm considering FUT. Do you have any other cases or posters on here you can direct me to who have used it?

stingray, slickers aka roadrunner here. Looking great my man, very jealous. Interesting to see the difference yield... if only we'd both gone Bisanga in the first place and given Armani a wide berth!

Hope all's well fella.

I saw a comment that Shapiro uses Acell in aiding scar closure. What's the consensus on this? Are they the only clinic that does? Does anyone have experience of it, comments about it?

Long time lurker here!

Looking good sickboy, it really kicks in at 4 months. Please keep posting your progress... I'm very much considering FUT with Bisanga and similar work in terms of. no. of grafts into frontal third. Two/ three months time you should be in a great place.
