Anagen growth factors FROZE.

[frankzukini]

I've been using Anagen's growth factors since mid-September and always stored it in the freezer. Last application was 4 days ago and everything was fine only to discover today that the gel has suddenly frozen (attached picture). Has this happened to anyone else? I'm reporting the issue to Anagen's staff at the moment, hopefully for a refund.

why would u store it in the freezer? of course it will freeze. it clearly state what conditions to store the growth factors in

[frankzukini]

Yeah, Anagen just pointed that out. It's surprising it survived for so long in the freezer, actually. Didn't thought the liposomes were in a water base - then again I was wondering why they were selling 30 grams of it when there's only micrograms of encapsulated GF's. It should still be usable, hopefully.

Edit : Moreover, knowing the method to trap proteins into the vesicle, I was surprisingly dumb to forget that a water base IS required.

u need to talk to kane . he will will work with u ,

[frankzukini]

Yeah, that really is my bad, I thought the GF's were denaturing, but that really isn't (or, at least, wouldn't have been) the case. Should have read instructions and/or used my brain. I've contacted Anagen's staff (presumably Kane) and they've been super friendly and to the point about this. Two thumbs up again for their great service.

Any results from these growth factors guys?

Just received mine today and applied my first application. It's a relatively small jar it comes in. Hope it lasts.

How often is everyone applying and how much? Results?

[lilpauly]

I apply mine 3 times week .staythick growth factors are good with a combination of treatments such as fin and Minox . I would only recommend then on the hairline .

Old pro likes them . He has used many growth factors for many years

I'm going for twice a week, all over the scalp, after dermarolling. I'm using a fair amount, enough so it should last about 6 months. Can't really comment on the performance, but the vellus hair I had prior restarting finasteride and minoxidil two months ago plus starting growth factors (and dropping everything else) are starting to kick in. Can't tell if it's minoxidil or the GF's.

Will this artificial growth factor cause cancer?

[frankzukini]

If you already have cancer, it will certainly help cancerous cells proliferate. I don't see any reason why it'd induce cancer, though (ie. DNA mutation).

I would apply the growth factors about 8-12 days after dermarolling. Thats when healing happens and all natural factors occur.

I'm rolling the dice. My concern prior to ordering this was cancer, but I just can't see how it can. The irony if I were to get cancer from trying to regrow my hair...

I'll apply these Mon-Wed-Fri and go from there. There doesn't seem to be many people on these factors which is surprising to me. Maybe everyone is scared of cancer.

So many gym enthusiasts have been using IGF-1 for so long; not too worried.

Look at the MW of the GFs. Then read the 500 dalton rule for skin penetration. even with the so called nano solution and derm rolling there is no way the active ingredients are gonna make it to the follicle. If it were possible Histogen would be topical , yet its injected. Hmmm.

No one is getting growth, there are only subjective reviews like "insert username" likes it.
