There's been no posts in this thread for a while now so maybe this discussion is dead. I don't want to dig through the entire thing to find whether or not this was addressed but did anyone here try DR with Folligen or Tricomin? I've been rolling for about 6 months now. I started at once a week for the first 4 months and have since scaled back to every 2 weeks. I've seen *some* improvement but it is very hard to gauge since I'm a diffuse thinner. I have not been using minox at all though so I'm curious if anyone has tried peptides and has any thoughts/conclusions.Comment

I used Folligen, Follicure and Tricomin years ago as a shampoo based on the Folligen/ Follicure stated ability to clear away sebum and the Tricomin with its copper peptide binding none of which had a shred of any scientific evidence or clinical trials of import behind them. None of those shampoos did a damn thing and have long since being derided as scams to take the money of men suffering from male pattern baldness. As a result I stopped using them years ago. Regenepure DR was/ is good in the absence of Nizoral from the mainstream market due to faltering in its production/ distribution in various locations but the best is pure prescription Ketoconazole at 2% without the sodium laurel sulfates that damage the scalp and the hair follicle after continuous use of more than twice a week.Comment

ChrisM, How often do you use Ketoconazole 2% and how long due you leave it on your scalp when shampooing?Comment

Ok, so along with this tidbit, I was able to find a LOT of other articles on wound theory. This first one is particularly *really* interesting;
Skin wound healing and hair growth device
Inventors Masahiro Ogasawara
Applicant Mignon Belle Co., Ltd.

Here's one of the results in their patent study:
This seems to be tied into that Japanese LED device I posted about at some other place. They now have a home/helmet version: http://www.aderans.ne.jp/hairrepro/campaign/20120229/

Everything in that link looks like a complete joke, for starters the helmet looks like a Dalek Robot from Dr. Who:This seems to be tied into that Japanese LED device I posted about at some other place. They now have a home/helmet version: http://www.aderans.ne.jp/hairrepro/campaign/20120229/

Actually it's just that first picture and the Japanese characters that make it look goofy. You got excited about that patent...well that's supposedly the kind of tech they were using.Comment

Haha, that Dalek helmet's being sold by Aderans! So they pulled their money from HM and decided to invest it in this kinda shit instead - gotta laugh or I'd cry!Comment

I don't see a connection..unless I missed it.
Ha..they acquired Hair Club. THAT is funny..although I haven't followed what's going on with that lately.Comment

Same company. ARI was the research arm of Aderans. But Aderans' board decided to cut ARI's funding, presumably because the results weren't good enough to be commercially viable as a treatment.http://www.aderansresearch.com/ari_clinicupdates.html

ARI are apparently trying to find alternative sources of funding but nobody seems to be too optimistic about that happening.Comment
