    It suggests someone else has looked into donor regeneration...

      My interpretation of Dr. Wesley's statement is that the other doctors are doctors like Gho, Cole, Nigam and Mousseigne, not doctors who have used the Pilofocus procedure. The problem is that all doctors who have claimed donor regeneration have not shown convincing proof of true regeneration (i.e. full follicle growth in both donor and recipient areas). Based on the results of these doctors, unless Dr. Wesley has done a lot more research into this area than he is letting on, I think people will be pretty disappointed if they are hoping for donor regeneration (those with more reasonable expectations should still be pretty excited).

        Yeah, I am a little confused now......

        Dr Wesley's email to me said he hadn't looked at the donor area......but Artista said he was impressed by the studies on the donor area. ???

          Hey guys keep in mind that The donor regeneration I have witnessed, Which is the same thing that Spencer had witnessed From the very same PowerPoint presentation Is still very much anecdotal. We have said that all along. I have also said that donor regeneration was never Dr. Wesley's main focus. Scarless FUE done in a new and innovative way IS His main focus. One that may give you The same volume if not more As an FUT surgery would WITHOUT Strip scarring...I'm not trying to minimize the idea of regeneration/regrowth of the donor area. The type of treatment he's doing for the donor area is still In it's study phase. The doctor is only going to discuss what he feels comfortable in discussing,, Just like anybody else. That's where I come into the picture. If Dr. Wesley were to Schedule me for the beginning of next year, It would not shock me. Most everything hinges on the FDA as you know. That can change the timeframe in anything planned.. No worries My friends. I saw what I saw presented to me And so did Spencer Kobren Along with a handful of doctors As I was told...

            Not to belabor the point, but I guess what I'm saying is I don't know how there is even anecdotal evidence if he hasn't tested it yet.

              And as always Artista, thanks for being attentive to this thread and keeping us updated.

                Hi Joker, I would imagine that Dr. Wesley Doesn't really want this discussed right now. All I can tell you is this, What Spencer Kobren had said on the live show About the regenerative aspect of the treatment, I'm in 100% agreement. Maybe I shouldn't say anymore about that particular topic~ LOL

                  have you ever considered the fact that Dr. Wesley isn't allowed to say much in that aspect? and that he isn't going to go around advertising it until he knows what the rate can be consistently?

                    Jackpot.

                    Just like Aderans, Replicel, Histogen and especially Follica have kept very quiet about all their findings. Shit, even Dr. Roland Lauster has been very quiet even since he's basically found the holy grail.... FOR THREE YEARS.

                    Octoboer and the months following, however, will be very interesting months for us.

                      Everything sounds great.......but I really fear for me on a timescale of when this will be available, with trials still to do, training and implementation, then what will the waiting list be like......will the price be reasonable....etc.....

                      Could be 1-2 years before I can get this.

                      I am thinking of possibly saying feck-it I can't wait that long, and that I should just get standard FUE as I can get that within 2 months, but then I'll only be able to extract 3000-4000 hairs and that will be it, the rest will have to be SMP.......Although, in the future, if regeneration is like 80%+ with Pilofocus, I may be able to top up my head with it. But it would have to be at least 80% regen.

                      Everyone my age right now is getting married, having kids, I am being left behind because of this disease.

                        It is a pain but if there is regen I would wait, or get some light coverage with Gho in the meantime

                        Sausage, how old are you?

                            I can tell you right now that you're wrong if you think what's holding you back is your lack of hair.

                            Get fit, hit the gym, take up some hobbies, work on yourself in general while earning decent money and you will have a far greater chance of getting a women while bald than you would as you are now with a full head of hair.

                            Thats the bald truth.

                              Well put brah... That's totally true. I workout like a beast and generally speaking it compensates the situation... Also work on your personality and financial indepence and you'll get a decent formula against baldness...

                                Money wise theres not much you can do in north america, its very regulated so working the system isnt easy unless you become your own boss. Most business fail.

                                Gaining weight and muscle isnt possible for everyone either. I've got an extremely fast metabolism... doesnt matter what I do or eat, I can't bulk up.
