This is something that they’ve been trying for a decade or more (hair cloning, stem cells, etc), though perhaps with different methods. If it eventually is proven to be safe and effective in humans, I’m sure hair transplant surgeons will adapt. After all, someone will need to produce these hypothetical “jabs”. I would love to […]

We have seen this in the past, but worded with different terms. In general, if things sound “too good to be true” then it probably is! We have researched and tested the Acell (two years ago with Dr. Bernstein in N.Y.) for it’s acclaimed “cloning” potential touted by certain doctors. In short, it did not […]
Snippet from the press release — Read the rest — Stratus Media Group and Histogen Execute Letter of Intent for Biotechnology Merger We’ve written about Histogen many times in the past. It appears that Stratus Media is getting into biopharmaceuticals lately by also announcing a merger with Canterbury Laboratories, LLC, and Hygeia Therapeutics, Inc last […]
Snippet from the article: Read the rest in New Scientist — Stem cells: Back to the future So maybe this means that within our horizon, we will be able to create hair cells from our donor area with cloning instead of transplanting the hair itself. Of course, this is theory right now and there is […]
You are getting way ahead of yourself here. You need to first get a diagnosis from a physician and then discuss your options in a Master Plan for treatment. If you are scared to take a medication due to potential side effects, that is up to you and your doctors to decide. Finally, wearing hair […]
There is no medical cure for alopecia universalis patients. Cloning isn’t available and transplantation isn’t an option, since alopecia universalis patients don’t have hair to harvest. There is an alternative option — Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP). We have had one alopecia totalis patient treated with SMP. Look for Client 26 here (4th one down on the […]
Albert Einstein and Ronald Reagan had great hairlines present throughout their lives, and Bill Clinton still has a beautiful head of hair in his mid 60s. Reagan’s hair looked great into his late 80s (I can’t find photos of him in his final years, but his hair might’ve even been the same into his 90s). […]
You can look at how bad strip scars may look on our scalpmicropigmentation.com website (see some of the before photos of scalp scars). Unless you shave your head, even the wider scar is not visible with long hair. My scar, after three strip surgeries, can barely be seen; however, if I decided to shave my […]
The usual hair loss cause in men the vast majority of the time is genetics. There’s not much you can do to change what your mom and dad gave you. At times the hair loss is not uniform or symmetrical and this leads to some interesting patterns. In many patients, I have seen one side […]
For those that missed it, the original post is here. Has anyone ever stopped and considered that maybe the regeneration you are seeing is just regular hairs (missed FUEs) growing back? I mean, what about the photos of the recipient site? Did anyone count the number or percentage of transplanted hairs that actually GREW? If […]
I guess that is one way to look at it. I am unaware of any leaked information, and I’m not even familiar with the ins and outs of these particular trials. I’d have to assume there are non-disclosure or confidentiality agreements which prevent participants from discussing their results (if any). If they are successful, the […]
We can hope that this will happen. Knowledge is increasing logarithmically, so whatever breakthroughs we have seen in the past 10 years should be 10 times that number. There is work going on in cloning and the financial rewards are certainly there to make the required breakthrough. This means to me that something will happen […]
Perhaps I wasn’t clear enough on the ACell matter… ACell for use in hair cloning or hair multiplication (plucked hairs) does not work. I am not at all sure if it even has a future in hair multiplication. We aren’t planing further studies, but I can’t speak for other doctors that might be trying to […]
Exciting stuff. Thanks for sending the link! I’ve embedded the video below. The first two researchers are certainly stimulated to find a cure (they are very bald) so I would trust them. Growing hair follicles in a petri dish has been done before by Dr. Jahoda in the 1990s (here and here). When grown in […]
While anything is possible, if a company had a big announcement to make (such as hair multiplication being available to the general public), I doubt they’d wait to announce it just for the ISHRS meeting. These companies are usually looking for financial investors or commercial interest, so it wouldn’t necessarily make sense to hold back […]
