Senior Member MarieEvo Posted May 3, 2016 Senior Member Share Posted May 3, 2016 There are so many hair loss myths. This forum is helpful in sifting through them to help get us closer to the facts. We've started a series of fun hair-related findings (and never been founds!) on Instagram (@drcarloswesley) and Twitter (@drcarloswesley). Here's the SECOND in the series. Can you guess which is TRUE? I have worked with 26 different hair restoration doctors throughout my career. I have now been a nurse with Dr. Wesley for more than a decade.

Senior Member lorenzo Posted May 3, 2016 Senior Member Share Posted May 3, 2016 I think this is much more interesting Baldness Myths: 5 Things That May Or May Not Be Causing Hair Loss Marie since you are affiliated with a hair transplant doctor I think you are required to state it as your signature at bottom of the page. Representative for Hasson & Wong. Dr. Victor Hasson and Dr. Jerry Wong are esteemed members of the Coalition of Independent Hair Restoration Physicians. My opinions are my own and do not necessarily reflect the opinions of Hasson & Wong.

Senior Member MarieEvo Posted May 5, 2016 Author Senior Member Share Posted May 5, 2016 ANSWER: HAIR CELLS CAN REGROW NERVES Who knows? Maybe hair stem cells will provide a controversy-free source of cell therapy someday! Numerous publications have demonstrated that in rodents (not humans) hair follicle stem cells from the bulge region promote recovery of injured spinal cord and can also play a role in repair of smaller nerves on our periphery. "Pluripotent" refers to a cell that can become many different types of cells. Well, glass-half-full readers would say that these studies suggest that hair follicle accessible pluripotent (HAP) cells are the next easily-accessible source to propel regenerative medicine. Glass-half-empty readers, on the other hand, may read that (despite its <99% genetic similarity with the human genome) what happens in mice simply doesn't translate to humans. 'til next time !!!!
