    Default It might be Body hair

    I've never posted under the cutting edge/future treatment thread. I have always been more of a lurker, never taking place in discussion. I have recently come to the conclusion or thought that the 'cure' or at least supplemental replacement of a large portion of hair for balding men might come from our already existing body hair.
    I know, I know BHT already exists. Some guys that do it have very mixed results, some Doctors that do it don't even trust it. I know, not all body hair, facial hair leg hair, etc, translates well in a transplant and looks good. I also know that body hair grows at a different rate and is a different species than hair on the human head. But guys and girls, were talking about coverage. Were talking about the appearance of a full head of hair..
    My point is, in the future as body to head transplants become further explored and people try and more aggressively expand techniques for transplanting body hair, we could get to a point where guys are able to recoup 70-80% of their hair on top of the head, with transplants.
    The future is most likely streamlined, computer assisted, reduced scaring FUE technique for transplants from donor areas on the head. This should be coupled with research and experiments (which it already is) as to transplanting body hair with it. Maybe you do it in smaller sessions, who knows Im no expert and I've never had a transplant.
    Just know this, only about 1-5 of all hair on the human body is located on the head. It could be the way things go in the near future if there is no 'cure' or miracle drug around the corner...
    I'd say stem cell research/cloning will eventually be the way MPB is rectified, but advancement in transplanting body hair could be a plausible stop gap or solution for many men.
