Regular Member hombre Posted November 1, 2004 Regular Member Share Posted November 1, 2004 As far as actual hair transplantation goes, I don't think we will see anything superior to FUE. This technique has opened up many new avenues. It is now possible to have a HT with virtually undetectable scarring and also increased the donar source with body hair. The only improvement will be hair multiplication but I wouldn't like to put a time frame on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member rms Posted November 1, 2004 Author Regular Member Share Posted November 1, 2004 how well does using other body hair as source, considering it normally is much thicker than head hair, grows slower,etc..? cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member nile Posted December 16, 2004 Regular Member Share Posted December 16, 2004 I think there is still scope for improvement in fue as well as using bodyhair. I contacted Dr.Arvind, Delhi and came to know how fast advances are occuring. You could try checking out hair site for latest and this forum for basic broad info. I do that.

Senior Member Smoothy Posted December 17, 2004 Senior Member Share Posted December 17, 2004 5 years from now, FUE or FIT will be more common with more physician performing this technique with better set ups, therefore allow for more grafts per session and lower prices. 10 yrs from now, look at Hair manipulation to be a usable technique, and 15 yrs maybe cloning. Also look for genetic medication that blocks the MPB gene to be developed in 10-15 yrs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member rms Posted December 18, 2004 Author Regular Member Share Posted December 18, 2004 nile - what is his site? Ain't that the doctor located in India, I dunno but India and health/medic related stuff are kinda red flag Smoothy - Been reading about both hair cloning and hair manipulation and personaly it looks like Hair cloning has more chances of potentially result in good news for us Thanks for the replies fellas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member nile Posted December 20, 2004 Regular Member Share Posted December 20, 2004 I think Dr.Arvind is a helpful and caring doctor. I have an Indian friend and as I gather from talking to him, Delhi is about as any other big city around the world. No red flag here I heard of a man flying from states to Delhi to have a heart surgery performed. Seems he didnt hav insurance and his operation was done in $10,000/- whereas here it was costing him $1,00,000/- (yes that many extra zeros). I dont think posting web site address is allowed. Just google Dr.AP . You should find his site and related info. BTW, Gil here seems to have the inside info on the good doctor.

Steven1974 Posted December 24, 2004 Share Posted December 24, 2004 I read something that other body hair can be transplanted and after sometime the hair begins to take on the new characteristics of the missing "head" hair.. in the new location. Strange huh??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
