First of all, Dr. Wesley has been a great hair transplantation doctor for quite a long time now.(and other doctors too~of course)
A while ago, he decided to try a different approach to hair transplantation so that there would possibly be no scarring or at least minor scarring to his patients.
He felt that, instead of removing donor hair grafts the regular FUT and FUE way,
he began a new innovative way to remove hair follicles via his innovative ENDOSCOPIC instrumentation!
He found that when he went underneath the skin at the back of ones donor area to remove the hair follicles (from underneath) using his new endoscopic tools, he found that there were tremendous amounts of Epidermal STEM Cells available to possibly be used for REGENERATION by applying ACell .
On May 2013 after he finished his first phase testings with a number of patients, he shared his NEW phase test FINDINGS to just a percentage of guys, like me , and a percentage of Doctors.
(Spencer Kobren was also brought into it too).
It was a 'Pilofocus' 45 minute PowerPoint presentation via Skype.
It was amazing to see by all of us!!
The first phase test had used ACell only.
On this third phase test that I was a part of,
Dr Wesley used ACell and PRP!!!

Artista - can we get a shot of where the follicles were implanted? Isn't one of the benefits of piloscopy supposed to be that the transplanted hairs have a higher survival rate?Leave a comment:

( I'm on my phone right now )
The ACell and PRP treatments were put inside the skin internally for Epidermal follicle STEM Cells. It was not on the top of the scalp .it was Internally placed.Leave a comment:

Artista, do you know why Dr. Wesley didn't use a tattoo in the donor area where he extracted the follicles and why he didn't put a tattoo in the recipient area where he implanted the follicles.Leave a comment:

Hello Long4hair ...
I truly dont know as let.
I do know that Dr. Wesley is a very SINCERE doctor in trying to HELP people with hairloss.
When I am back to his Pilofocus Clinic for my phase test updates and verification,
I will know more about his important work updates.
Long4hair, Dr. Wesley has been using both, ACell AND PRP for the 3rd Phase Testings.
Im going to work now everybody,,I wish that I could stay HOME...oh well.Leave a comment:

Artista, has Dr. Wesley found a way to bring down the amount of time it takes to harvest and implant the follicles so it doesn't take too much time to do the proedure? Also, can he do large area transplants with this procedure so that he can harvest the patient's entire donor area, let it grow back, and then harvest the entire donor area again? This would double the donor supply and that would get almost all of us enough hairs to give us satisfactory coverage.Leave a comment:

Typically when follicles are cut horizontally that can result in donor regeneration but the part of the follicle that remains in the donor area produces thinner hairs and so does the part of the follicle that is implanted into the recipient area. I understand that they're using ACELL to improve the possibility that the follicles will produce full thickness hairs.
For the part of the follicle that remains in the donor area the ACELL can be kept in the skin since the surgeon is going in the skin from underneath so there isn't an open hole at the extraction spot. But the part of the follicle that's implanted into the recipient area is still being implanted from the outside so the hole is open to the outside world so there's a chance that the ACELL could fall out of the recipient area hole. Is Dr. Wesley doing anything to force the ACELL to stay inside of the recipient area implant holes?Leave a comment:

Can someone enlarge Artista's pics so we can take a REAL CLOSE look for empty spaces?Leave a comment:

I was FINALLY able to post these photos HERE!!
It had to do with my COMPUTER!! It is finally fixed !!
The 3 DONOR AREA photos are from last November 2016.
The year before Dr. Wesley had did his Pilofocus 3rd Phase test right here!!
A normal hair transplant at the donor area would show missing hairs and scaring.
My donor area was used to do that Hair Regeneration phase test!!
It looks A-OK!!
Next month Dr. Wesley will medically verify if it has GOOD hair transplants!!
I have to go to work now but I will be back on here tomorrow!!
Cheers everyone!
I'm not questioning if your pics are legit Artista. That having been said, I do want to say that you previously posted pics of your hair months ago in which the hair looks more brownish and in these new pics your hair looks more blackish. Perhaps it's the lighting or something. I just think there's some different lighting. What do you think?Leave a comment:

"Next month Dr. Wesley will medically verify if it has GOOD hair transplants!!"
