How does Dr. Wesley's Scarless Pilofocus work?

My gut feeling is that ALL graft wounding procedures are the same: they're just FUE and do NOT lead to regeneration. First HASCI claimed they could do it, it turned out that wasn't true. Then Nigams could all of a sudden do it but never produced any convincing evidence, only some photoshopped pictures. Then Mousseigne said he was very far producing results but then disappeared into nowhere. Then Mwamba got interested because HASCI, Mousseigne and Nigams supposedly could do it (he said that's why he got interested in Nigams). And then we read that Pilofocus MAYBE caused regen too ... Of course I might be wrong here but up till now the simple fact is that we have not seen a single credible regeneration case from ANY of those doctors ... -
Hey there now don't go all gut feeling on us. Let's wait until we get more info. This seems promising?Leave a comment:

My gut feeling is that dr wesley isnt getting nowhere near 100% regen with bisecting method so Im not surprissed dr Nigams wasnt impressed but Im surprissed that dr gho didnt try this method at some point?Or maybe he did and it didnt work....Leave a comment:

I don't know if I would characterize Dr. Wesley's Pilofocus presentation in the same way as didi.
Yes, Pilofocus has the ability to bisect grafts in a very precise and accurate fashion.
However, we still do not know if the amount of stem cells removed is enough to generate a full follicle in the recipient area and if the amount of residual stem cells is enough to generate a full follicle in the donor area. Until we know this with certainty - something Dr. Wesley will test in the upcoming trial - we can't call it a functional cure or solution.
I, personally, am skeptical. Still, Artista has more information on this than I do and he has stated that he really believes he has seen anecdotal evidence of regrowth. Let's all hope he is right.
Just so everyone is aware, the ISHRS presentation only gave a limited overview of the "regenerative" aspects of this technology. The majority of the presentation concerned the shortcomings of current methods and the genesis of the Pilofocus.Leave a comment:

This makes me think dr nigams doubling is legit. Bisecting follicle at correct length is the key to regeneration.
The logical question to ask is why bother going underskin or scalp harvesting grafts when you can do it Nigams way (standard FUE), regeneration will eliminate any scarring anyway. Makes it milion easier to corectly bisect graft invitro than to do it by going under the scalp.Leave a comment:

Was this said on The Bald Truth's show last night? Can you source this info? This if the first time I've heard anywhere that Pilofocus bisects grafts...Pilofocus is same as nigams doubling invivo, the only diff is that dr wesley takes grafts from underneath the scalp and bisects it, top part keeps growing, bottom part gets transplanted...
but if he gets regen wouldnt normal FUE extraction be enough? grafts regrows anyway, hence no scarringLeave a comment:

woah. what are these lofty declarations posters are asserting?.... any substantiating evidence?Leave a comment:

if this is the case, then we have a de facto cure that'll be launched in 2014Pilofocus is same as nigams doubling invivo, the only diff is that dr wesley takes grafts from underneath the scalp and bisects it, top part keeps growing, bottom part gets transplanted...
but if he gets regen wouldnt normal FUE extraction be enough? grafts regrows anyway, hence no scarringLeave a comment:

sounds good. Is this what he said on Spencer's show?Pilofocus is same as nigams doubling invivo, the only diff is that dr wesley takes grafts from underneath the scalp and bisects it, top part keeps growing, bottom part gets transplanted...
but if he gets regen wouldnt normal FUE extraction be enough? grafts regrows anyway, hence no scarringLeave a comment:
