Senior Member Britanium Posted January 6, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted January 6, 2021 Look at Ralph from 10 years ago or so.. hairline was gone. Fast forward to now and he’s has the hair of his youth pretty much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes the adhesives that don't irritate your scalp don't hold as good. Not to mention the glue and adhesives can cause further hair loss through traction alopecia, from all the constant tugging and pulling. I used a substance called Polyfuse and it was while I was a client of HCM...it did not irritate my scalp however it only was effective for approximately 30 days before it had to be re-applied. The natural oil and salt excretions from the scalp would break down the glue. 1 1 Gillenator Independent Patient Advocate I am not a physician and not employed by any doctor/clinic.

What I hope does happen in the next ten years is that start up third world chop shops disappear and that more regulation becomes part of a hair transplant plan as well. I also see a need for better counseling to be part of this industry too and perhaps laws and better recourse for improper practice. Definitely. It has to be better regulated. Also, hair cloning seems like a major growth area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
