Vellus regrowth is a big middle finger from the gods

[ChrisM]

Thanks, but why do you say 10 years? I thought it was much less. Someone else posted it was more like 2-2.5 I think

No one really knows for certain conflicting reports abound as HT successes have re-growth and there is no attachment to the pili muscle. The major school of though is that with MPB when the hair miniaturizes for x amount of years and the arrector pili muscle is separated from them for a while and is detached then there is no hope of going beyond vellus hairs because the shaft itself is malnourished and atrophied to such an extent choked off with telogen effluvium and sebum and DHT. However everyone's genetic profile is different and so one man's being a NW4 for 4 years and another being a NW6 for 12 years.. the NW6 might after a serious regimen of Fin/Dut/ RU with Minoxidil and Ketoconazole regain most if not all of his coverage and bypass the NW4's recovery process on the same program.
