I didn’t donate much but $10-$15 I don’t expect perfection but I do expect someone to be a man of their word, maybe that’s a crazy standard to have now a days. I’ve always and will continue to give Dr Barghouthi his praise, but if someone doesn’t update you for months after they said they were going to update you, typically you lose a little bit of trust. Do this 3-4x in a row and see how people’s admiration turns into mistrust and annoyance. But if your argument is that the amount of money you donated to this cause makes your opinion matter I guess mine matters more than yours.

This is one guy complaining and stating that, where multiple people were complaining about Dr B taking long. That’s typical when you give certain dates and don’t follow them. I get Dr B is amazing and everyone is grateful for him but don’t act like he’s perfect and deserves to be treated as such.
-
Go back a couple of pages, it’s revealed that the areas with verteporfin regrew a percentage of hair back. It’s hard to know the exact amount since that was the first study and the follicles weren’t counted beforehand.
-
Couldn’t agree more with pretty much everything you’ve stated. Verteporfin could be the cure not with regenerating follicles outside the donor zone but within, have enough supply and you don’t need medication. Only ultra rare cases wouldn’t be curable.
-
Thanks Dr B, see you in June/july!
-
Wait until begining of May, if by then there’s no updates by Dr B I say we can reasonably demand for a refund and get it allocated to a different hair transplant surgeon that’s more interested in Verteporfin.
-
We need to leave Dr Barghouthi alone, ask for a refund and move on.
-
Is this privately funded?
-
His last excuse was because he was having equipment being delivered and that was at least 3 months ago. My guess is there’s something big behind the scenes he can’t talk about. Hopefully he’s getting ready to partner up with a big company and be able to use verteporfin way more often. He’ll be the first in the industry and every clinic he opens up will be PACKED. Or…. He’s just busy, I guess we’ll see which one it is lol
-
At some point with what Dr Barghouthi has done, other drs will pick up on it. If we time travel 20 years from now I can almost guarantee verteporfin (unless something even greater came a long) will be used in lots of HTs and maybe even the treatment of certain surgeries that produce scars.
-
Jesus Christ, call out Dr Bargouthi on not keeping up well with times and rescheduling constantly, that’s fine, and he’s guilty of some of it. But photoshopping results? Don’t say some something so absurd here unless you have an ounce of proof, that is ridiculous.
-
Yes I’ve been saying this for the past year and half and will say it again, this is the cure, dosages and certain things need to be optimized but this is the cure as long as you have 100-200k for a hair transplant 😂😂. Maybe you can get away without taking fin and min as well.
-
You’re missing one big thing, a lot of those guys are delusional, and want some type of chemical that will turn them from Norwood to 7 just applying daily, which I don’t think (mostly due to regulations like fda). Were at least somewhat less delusional and know that the cure might be something expensive like 5-10 hair transplants over and over. Sounds terrible and only the top 2-5% of earners can afford it, but to me it’s better than having no alternative.
-
While I agree, I just don’t understand the constant agreeing to certain dates then back tracking. a couple of times is certainly understandable, but every single date he’s set the past 5-6 months has been not only wrong, way off only to be replaced with another date that’s also off. At that point just refund the money you took and don’t bother, I promise especially with the current results we’ll find another doctor. If I went to a homeless shelter and promised to feed everyone on a certain date, then delayed they’d be ok, do that over and over, they’re gonna turn on you.
-
Then maybe he shouldn’t set a timeline on here and not follow it! Should be common sense, he’s done it a dozen times by now.
-
I completely agree, and get it, BUT again these drs are currently getting praised like they’re helping us, and we’re constantly being told to stop annoying them with updates because everything is coming out of their own time and pockets and they have little to no gains but helping the HT community. At least drop that angle and I’d have 0 problems with it.
-
I think that it’s very fair to do private trials, but start them privately. Like I told one other user here who him and his dr decided to back out the trial last minute, if you’re getting all your info from us, advertising it for a certain date and as public, then backing out for self gain isn’t illegal but definitely exploitive. I think eventually though we’ll see one of these docs start to offer it to customers and then we’ll see what was really happening behind the scenes.
-
This is ridiculous stop begging these doctors for updates, and then giving them hero status once they do something small that can potentially make them millions and millions. Once they see that potential go away so will their updates. We need to try and fund everything ourselves, maybe get a refund from Barghouthi, raise an extra 20-30k and start our own with a surgeon that wouldn’t mind consistently contributing, not only for extra cash from us but seeing the potential of being the first hair transplant dr to use something like verteporfin to try and regrow hair extracted from FUE.
-
If only someone would’ve predicted these trials to constantly be pushed back, and for there to be a difference with Verteporfin on FUE and FUT….. 😂😂
-
I’ve been gone from this forum for a couple of months now, did we ever get Dr Barghouthi to start his second fue trial?
-
Lol I was trying to have some playful banter but realized that’ll probably look bad online over text.
-
Melvin you say this because you used like 99% of your donor hair lol
-
This idea seems far fetched though that it just “restarts” your skin/hair wherever it’s injected. We should reserve the testing for the more reasonable ideas for now.

Great work Fox!
