I'm curious, is it known why only HASCI offers Gho's HST procedure? Does Gho keep HST protected with strict patents and trademarks and not allow licensees, or is it simply the case that hair transplant surgeons generally have no interest in using (licencing?) HST as an alternative to FUE and FUT?
Why don't non-HASCI clinics offer HST?
