"Acell" test..... to be or not to be!

pvtpoint2010, any news? its 4 months already.

7 days ago he posted that many in the scar grow, so it seems that the plucked hair in fact created another working follicle which is very very good :-)

And no 120 hairs per hour is not a good yield because its really time consuming thats why it is essential to work exactly on the time factor.

I would say 400 to 500 hairs per hour would be a good yield.

People have around 100.000 hairs and your NW7 baldie has around 20.000 visible. Now do the math how long it would take for him to get back to NW1 with

1) 120 per hour
2) 500 per hour

given the fact that after 9 months the hair grows back in the donor area

So what happened with the tests? Can you update us pvtpoin?

[SilverSurfer]

Pvtpoint, what happened to your results? How is everything coming along? How are the results looking? Please remember what it felt to be in the dark with all this ACell information, now you can give us a better insight, try to keep us informed and posted

Aug 2011 update

My barber was looking through my donor area after a short cut a few days ago and still saw several hairs growing within the scar from the test.....she however couldn't see any improvement in the white FUE spots

If you remember from past posts I had 3 spots plucked out and filled with ACELL and planted several plucked hairs into several others by Dr Cooley late last year.....but nothing much to report.....

I also contacted a few Doc's over the past few weeks and received the following ACELL update from each office..

Dr Cooley has not gotten back to me as of yet....

Dr Feller is still NOT using ACELL at all.............

Dr Bernstein commented that he is NOT 100% happy with his results sofar....He feels in some cases its just ok and in others it may even be a hindrance.

He feels at times it makes the skin much softer and more prone to stretch....He still however feels more time is needed to make his final assessment

Dr Cole's office feels ACELL has shown promise to regrow donor FUE hairs and reduce white dotting scars

Though the office gave me an actual % of FUE donor regroth I feel the number may have been exaggerated so wont post it at this time

However if the % is even close to being true it would be remarkable !

Any other ACELL researchers or test patients THAT have more input please reply....!!....

Interesting comments by Dr Bernstein

would also be interesting to know how Dr Bernstien repaired the `stretched soft ` skin in the donor area , as in did it stretch again if revised ? would be good to hear from him

So, thats interesting. So far we have the following plucking situation

1) Cooley does it

2) Feller doesnt

3) Bernstein not 100% happy (open for interpretation) some cases good and some not. The reults may vary BUT there is regeneration in fact a slight hair multiplication so to speak

4) Dr Cole does it and he is positive about it

So from those 100%, 75% are involved and got results which vary from good to not good

Interesting, seems Gho is not that UNPLAUSIBLE like people want him to be

lets forget about acell , and plucking , ( sweep under the carpet.. , tuff tits if it was your head worked upon ) ... its now all about replicel......, let me guess , readily available in five years ....

Without the hype no one is going to get into the chair so that these docs can experiment. They are on the same level as carnival barker. That's right, step right up and be amazed.
