Hair Tomorrow

Wait, what? Is Dr Bargouthi collaborating with Westminster Group in Harley Street, London?

When will this group chat be taking place, thanks - and will it be broadcast?

I am getting conflicting messages on the correct temperature Verteporfin should be stored at whilst in powdered form - does Visudyne (with its other added ingredients) have a different storage temperature than Verteporfin from China? Some are saying to keep Verteporfin in a cool dry dark place, whilst others are saying it should be stored at 4 degrees Celsius. I have just been storing my Verteporfin in a drawer for the last month - is it ruined?

Does anyone know a lab in UK who will test Verteporfin for individuals rather than for companies/institutions?

Stanford fiddled 12 studies but there's no way Stanford would fiddle a study?

Results photos are easily photoshopped, and Stanford University faked photos in at least 12 studies - Does anyone know any forensic scientists who can analyse the animal and human Verteporfin results photographs so far?

This might explain why Spencer Kobren and JT of The Bald Truth/Mane Event are reserving judgement, given they make money by approving the top HT surgeons prepared to pay a fee.

Yes, it will be great if @DrTbargouthi can show us if the 0.4ml Vert per CM donor region thickened up any more over these last two months, and clarify if those amazing photos were 15 months or 1.5 years post op?

Verteporfin has the potential to eradicate linear scars, and yet no face lift surgeons are testing it - strange. Eyelid lifts often leave a noticeable linear scar, and yet no surgeon has attempted a Verteporfin eyelift yet? And what about Verteporfin in breast reduction scars (which are extensive), or Verteporfin with breast augmentation scars? All I am seeing is a few acne scar surgeons talking Verteporfin up (but not showing anything).

I'm seeing lots of white hairless spots in these 5 months post-op photos of Dr Bargouthi's FUE verteporfin test (and that's at the most effective dose), which are not seen in the end photos another 10 months later, so to me it looks like FUTs are going to be scarless too - but who would want a Verteporfin FUT with all the scalp tightness and numbness if Verteporfin FUE's are limitless?

How was Dr Bargouthi's FUE test doing 5 months post surgery? It wasn't all that impressive, and I for one zoned out, but then that 15 month (or was it 18 month?) update with the total regrowth is what really sparked the frenzy of interest, and as a betting man, I bet a lot more hair is going to sprout in that FUT closure over the next several months.

I think it's just as much regrowth as Dr Bargouthi got at the 5 month mark - what doee per CM2 was Dr Bloxham using in the most successful test case here so far?

And will Sigma Aldrich sell to individuals, or research institutions only?

So Verteporfin injections might do wonders for your lungs, liver and kidneys, however... blocking the YAP1 pathway with Verteporfin will make osteoarthritis worse https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-018-07022-2 So we might not want too much Verteporfin swashing around our systems, and the sensible approach might be to use a nanoparticle Verteporfin mix to keep Verteporfin at the site of the wounds. The YAP1 osteoarthritis study researchers were able to normalise the osteoarthritis-inducing effects of Verteporfin with Protease Inhibitor MG132, so we might want a dose of that stuff 10 days after verteporfin hair surgery (if that stuff is safe). This YAP1 study indicates that while Verteporfin is in the system, damage to cartilage is more likely if mechanical stress is placed on joints, so there may be an even stronger need to rest and relax for the first several days after verteporfin hair transplant surgery. I am not a doctor.

Veerteporfin might be an anti-aging drug too if this study pans out in humans: https://singularityhub.com/2023/11/07/zombie-cells-have-a-weakness-a-new-anti-aging-therapy-exploits-it/

Thanks for this - did the guy have any success testing it on his cheek? And do you think the other ingredients in Visudyne (listed below) are necessary? Are they present in the high purity research verteporfin?

Yes, but Medchemexpress or Selleckchem will only sell to research institutions or labs, so presumably would not sell to a hair transplant clinic, as they will not sell for human use.

It's going to be legit, but they will only sell to research companies or institutions - does anyone know a way round this?

So there's one guy who tried using Verteporfin to heal a scar on his leg and it didn't work - somewhere on a reddit post about Verteporfin - can't find it at the moment - but have there been any other negative reports about Verteporfin not working? Joe Tilman on The Mane Event is being extremely skeptical and pessimistic about Verteporfin - is that a financial/political position he's taking - or are there other rumours from DIY experimenters that Verteporfin doesn't work?

Does Verteporfin create new Arrector Pili muscles with each new hair follicle?

If this Verteporfin HT patent is granted, there are still countries in the world that do not respect patent law, or that only respect patents for new drugs, rather than for repurposed drugs, so getting a Verteporfin HT might involve a bit of foreign travel.

Does anyone know of existing patents being granted for an already existing drug or category of drugs being utilized in a novel way? Is it like Rogaine's patent on minoxidil?

This company does not have any Visudyne in stock.

Would you say that Visudyne, with its other ingredients is optimal, or 99.3% pure Verteporfin from Selleckchem (the most pure I have seen) would be optimal for HT scar regeneration? Are they the same? Does the 99.3% pure Verteporfin also have these other ingredients? VISUDYNE contains: ACTIVE: Verteporfin, 2 mg INACTIVES: Lactose, egg phosphatidylglycerol, dimyristoyl phosphatidylcholine, ascorbyl palmitate and butylated hydroxytoluene
