Pilofocus
If Pilofocus can demonstrate AT LEAST 25% CONSISTENT donor regeneration... then the vast majority of us are basically (or in effect) cured...
What do you think?

Problem is cost for me. In order to effectively cure a norwood 6 you need 8000-10,000 grafts.
If prices are $5 per graft, thats $40,000 - $50,000.
Unless Pilofocus is significantly cheaper than FUE, I need to take out a bank loan. lol

Very high price to pay for hair. I want hair as much as the next guy but damn.
-
are you guys for real? For a Permanent full head of hair for the rest of your life? That is peanuts... and i am dead broke...
-
Id still pay for it, but damn I dont have a job right now. So, the cost scares me.

I hear what you are saying, but still pretty pricey. If I can hold on to what I have, then I will just live with my crappy hair.

Is donor regeneration really becoming a reality though or is it still unproven.
-
Unproven. Regeneration of the partially removed follicules has been documented and if you belive the evidence, high yields of 70-80% are common. Problem is there is little evidence as to wether the grafts take in the recipient and what sort of rate these are growing at?
There was a french doctor, Dr Mousseigne. A representative for his company was showing some good results and the photos and anaylsis of the test patchs were top notch. He was ment to come back soon and post a full in depth study, but as of yet it has not happend.

According to Jotronic (H&W clinic) NW6 patients can get between 6 000-8000 grafts on average.
25-50% regeneration would mean cure but it will be pricey, around $10 per graft
