    giving eyes to fue and doubling...with follicle ultrasound @ world's first at dr niga

    As I promised, this is great news from Dr. Nigams Clinic:

    "This is a special ultrasound with specific frequency for better hair follicle visibility.We would be the first clinic in the world to use it for invivio doubling and injecting stemcells into the vellous hair follicle,thus will also help us follow up the cases after doubling...as we give prp,growth facors and ecm for few days after the doubling.This ultrasound would be very useful for fue surgeons...and is also the demise of fut...with the final nail in the coffin for fut,as the fue will no more be bling after the introduction of the follicle ultrasound.The company have done the testing with images for me...my radiologist friend in mumbai has a similar ultrasound for diagnosing skin and follicle medical conditions,i did few cases at her clinic.
    Hopefully will have thuis ulytrasound by november at my clinic." .

    P.S. This is not thread that I promised yesterday. That thread will be post at the forum tonight. Take care guys;-)

      Dont we already have this technology?

      What does an ultrasound of a hair follicle have to do with the demise of FUE?

      You mentioned that you give PRP to your patients, so? What's so great about PRP? Lol.

      Can you start being straight with us?

          I guess it means you can see the follicule when extracting so you don't damage it, this would increase successful yeilds?

            That could make sense. But skilled FUE docs get a good yield anyway... so does that mean ultrasound isnt groundbreaking but may lead to an improvement on FUE?

              i understand it as it wont be nececary to bisect after extraction but bisect inside "invivo" that means les scarring for donor and faster time. correct?

                Exactly! And that's one of the many benefits, it can also monitor developments around follicles after the procedure.

                  veca i feel positive suddently. if an open minded doc like Nigam can bisextract with image almast atraumatically then all that is needed is to be wait for the procedure with such big amound of grafts,



                  ps-hows with the pics? am i any good?

                    man, you still have good hair. I do not think you need to worry, you have a great donor region. I think you can easily solve your problem, if all goes like it should with Dr. Nigam. Do you take finasteride?

                      i hope dermaroll wounding is played out good on me, i will get dermaroll 2mm and really press it in . then apply minox(which i get sides from but i will take it for 12 weeks as the study)


                      i really hope it gives me density back,


                      thanks for your comment effort

                        Kiwi...he can visualize the telogen follicle invivo in the scalp and inject stemcells and dp cells directly into the dormant follicle to activate it...apart from visibilty for extraction of follicle in fue and bisecting the follicle in doubling with visibility...

                          The way I understand it, invivo is a faster more efficient process than invitro and scarless. However without the ultrasound the invivo isn't completely accurate at bisecting (under the skin Blind) vs the bisecting outside the skin (invitro).

                          Now he has the ultrasound he can do his invivo process without any problems and make the perfect cuts.

                          Also i'm fairly sure that with the invivo procedure he's using tiny needles, approx 0.5 or 0.6mm, whereas the invitro was extracting the entire follicle (fue like, different size needles depending on the hair grouping etc).

                            To be honest I quite like the banter which exists in the Gho/Nigams threads as long as it doesn't go over the top, the other threads I don't bother with, so I'm not privy to what he (Ironman) says over there.

                            If Dr Nigam can deliver, then we'll all find out about it in time regardless of what Iron Man says. It's a forum and unless he is abusing people or violating the rules then I don't see a problem with it.

                            I think it would be pretty boring if we all agreed constantly, so when I see comments from some saying 'if you don't agree then stay out of the thread' etc for me that is far worse.
