So he's inferring that spencer was excited for no reason? Not sure I'm buying what Nigam is saying..Leave a comment:

DR Nigam responded yesterday about Dr WEsleys ishrs presentation. He said it doesn't create new donor hair and seemed to imply that it is nothing revolutionary. Afraid I can find the link but I think it's on this forum.Leave a comment:

Pilofocus.com should have been updated by now with new relevant information.Leave a comment:

+1 Arashi. I think this was just an other excuse to push for people to delay a classic FUE. "Wait for pilofocus!", "wait for hair cloning!"...Leave a comment:

I think if this was something really interesting, we would have heard something by now ...Leave a comment:

They use MRI scanning technology. Apparently.For me best remedy for the waiting is talking and assuming about it again lol.
Lets check the patent again and the pictures and we can dream or despair
A surgical apparatus for hair removal surgery includes an extraction module, a visualization component and a bridging component. The extraction module includes independently controllable coring and clipping devices. The visualization component acts to align a target hair follicle with the extraction module. The extraction module also includes at least one independently controllable suction port. The instrument also includes a dissection module having a tissue separating device.
For me the things that comes to my mind is that its like liposuction for follicles or FUE from beneath.
Basically the way i see it Carlos took the principles of suction something like the Neograft machine and used its benefits vice versa! The supposed benefit of the Neograft machine is to use its blades to cut around the follicle and then use suction to remove the follicle without the blades reaching the root where manual FUE supposedly can damage it during the extraction. So basically suction does the rest after cutting the dermis. The obvious drawback is that it still has FUE dot scarring and many surgeons think that suction can damage the follicle while its being pulled
Wesley on the other hand he used the suction principle to suck the hair from underneath ,(there seems to still be something underneath from the way i read the patent that uses blades to isolate and cut around the root of the follicle to allow the force of suction to do the rest) and then uses suction to be able to take them without having to reach the dermis so the superficial scar(white dot) is avoided and the graft ends up in his collection device out of our head. The suction in this case has an easier job to do cause it sucks from the root and the hair just slip through its point of exit back to our head and in his tube and then collector device.
What i dont understand and maybe its because i am reading things wrong from the patent is how you precise the blades from underneath to cut around the follicle root so that suction can do its job? Sounds like blind harvesting at its best.Leave a comment:

It all is just one big wet fart. All this tension build up, "24 october Dr Wesley is going to tell the world about his revolutionary technique" we've heard that for months. And then that date passes and ..... nothing. Just silence.Leave a comment:

WELL I HAVE TWEETED EVERY SURGEON ON TWITTER ATTENDING THE MEETING and none have replied with info about Dr Wesley's talk

We're all interested, but come on, we'll get the information when we get it.Hehe. If you don't care about info regarding the (near) future in terms of hair loss solutions, then why participate in this section of the forum ?
Dr Wesley's presentation ended yesterday morning. Of course we're all dying for information here, even though I expect pretty much nothing in terms of regrowth, it will still be interesting to hear more about his technique.Leave a comment:

Hehe. If you don't care about info regarding the (near) future in terms of hair loss solutions, then why participate in this section of the forum ?You people are ridiculous. The conference is still going on. Do you really think they are rushing to release this information to a bunch of crybabies on a hair loss forum. We'll all find out soon enough. Either way, its not going to change any of our lives today, so what's the rush?
