How does Dr. Wesley's Scarless Pilofocus work?

[hellouser]

I do not get how this works. Will fin be necessary to keep remaining hair like other transplants?

If youre not experiencing sides from Finasteride, I'd continue using it.

No Hel, I am asking if this technique, which I am new to will require Finasteride to maintain remaining hairs like fue or fut transplants? I am new to this technique i have been working 13 hour shifts so I do not have much time to research. Thanks for the quick reply though

Your still going to lose hair so yes it would be in your best interest. It's essentially an endoscope that removes hair from beneath the skin, from what I understand

Youre not guaranteed to go fully bald without an ant-dht, nor are you guaranteed to experience hair loss and stop at some point (somewhat like my case).

Assuming your hairloss will be progressive (likely that it will be) then YES, you'll need Fin to keep existing hair and slow down/halt further hair loss.

Its a shitty deal, but I'd recommend getting on RU/CB as an alternative.

Does anyone know if access to body hair with pilofocus will be as easy as scalp hair?

Does the same naturally occurring pocket exist for the pilofocus to move between the layers of tissue beneath beard hair, chest hair, abdomen hair, and leg hair etc?

This is a great question I would like answered as well. Also, Artista, have you found out when you are starting your phase trial yet?

And does it cause shedding?

I think someone has mentioned it doesnt work, but I personally think Dr. Wesley hasn't tried. Considering the amount of hair I have on my legs and the length I like to have my hair on my head, removing even half the hair on my legs would be a complete cure for me (I'm an NW3). I'm pretty hair there.

Still, more important are the regeneration claims, because this way you can use and reuse donor hair that will match your normal hair and grow to any length you want... body hair will remain quite short.

However, I wouldnt say no to body hair! Combine that with donor hair and you potentially have enough for complete coverage from NW6 to NW1!

Hi Maxhair I wouldnt have any information on this specific question at this time. In 2014, Im sure that more info will come our way.

Hi FearTheLoss
Yes , Dr Wesley had recently told me that I would be at his lab in early Spring 2014 ! I cant wait to be involved in this new technology. Thanks for asking bro

I keep seeing people here talking about "regeneration claims"…What regeneration claims? There is talk about possible regeneration, but from the video it's just about the surgical technique and that it would be scarless on the surface of the skin. Just a little talk about possibly being able to work towards regenerating donor hair.

I think we should look at this as a potentially better way to do FUE not a surgical cure for male pattern baldness. At least for yet.

Doesn't leg hair completely fall out after a certain age? Just like arm hair?

Hi PayDay
You do make a good point.
Ive said this before, any hair regeneration/regrowth that results from
Dr Wesley's new method of Pilofocus would be a bi-product of his overall intentions.
Not to say that donor hair regrowth could not be attained.
2 members here , Spencer Kobren and me- Artista, out of only a few people overall(doctors included), have witnessed the factual results during the PowerPoint presentation many months ago.
The presentation that Dr Wesley had shown at the Doctors San Fran' meeting is not the same PowerPoint...
Proof of Dr Wesley's results are fantastic but anecdotal at this point in time.
Dont lose hope anyone.
We are talking about a new method of hair transplantation that I feel will be a new gold standard. Cheers all,

So you mean Pilofocus is nothing but a scarless hair transplant?

[Artista]

Hairismylife No I was not implying that at all.

[FearTheLoss]

Artista has clearly stated many times that it was originally made to be scarless, that was the first goal. However, regeneration has proved to be possible and now Dr. Wesley is doing another phase to see how much and how consistently he can get it.


Artista, you say you are starting in spring 2014..does this mean pilofocus won't be available until 2015 now? or when can we expect it to be offered and final regeneration results to be announced?
