any news of Gaz after 5th HST?

[long4hair]

I'm 100% sure we are going to see regeneration from pilofocus. The science is behind it. Dr. Gardner confirmed that what he's doing should work. Furthermore, there are studies done that show it works to some degree and acell should increase the percent regenerating. Dr. Cole has said the reason he isn't able to get consistent regeneration from acell is because it leaks, if he had a way to prevent it from leaking he'd get it all the time to some highly beneficial degree. Therefore, with Dr. Wesley administering it underneath the skin, there won't be any leaking. Hence, consistent donor regeneration will follow.

FearTheLoss, you say that the science backs up donor regeneration with Pilofocus - could you please explain why the science behind Pilofocus supports donor regeneration?

Also, you said that Dr. Gardner indicated what Dr. Wesley's doing should achieve donor regeneration - can you please provide a link to Dr. Gardner saying that?

Also, you said there are studies showing that Pilofocus achieves some donor regeneration - can you please post a link to that study?

In case anyone is still interested, I'm going for my 6th HST on Tuesday. Probably another 1000-1200 I expect.

It's been a while since I last went and looking forward to it!

Nice to hear from you again and good luck with your upcoming HT.

Hi Gaz

Good to hear from you.

How many grafts will that be in total across all 6 HSTs?

Is there any chance you could upload a pic of how your hair looks just now?

Good luck on the 6th treatment. I think if life wasn’t so busy for me right now, i’d be going back for my 4th treatment!!

Thanks both.

In total with the previous 6100, then we are getting to around 7300 with Tuesdays 6th HST, that should equate to about 10,000 hairs in my case.

I'll get a before photo on here of how it is now, probably tomorrow!

I know what you mean about life and being busy, that is pretty much why I've not been back since 2014. I can't even believe it's been that long!

Hi Gaz,

Nice to see you post here. It’s true that time passes by so fast. I did mine in 2013...already 5 years. You were one of the pioneers trying it out on the forum that inspired me to try it as well.

Despite all the criticism of HST it bought me a lot of time to feel ok about my hair as it solidified my hairline and built “permanent” wall even if not too dense.

Now that my crown got rekt a bit and there are some potential treatments on the horizon in a more serious way that 5 years ago i am thinking what should i do.

Would really appreciate your feedback on what multiple HST can achieve and impact on donor from your perspective.

Same here, very interested in your result.
But one question though !
Wouldn't a good FUE have achieved the same for half thé money ?

We know multiple hst end up damaging the donor in the same fashion. Why not go straight to FUE for more immediate dramatic results?

Also, did you get the chance to talk about future and research at hasci and Gho?

Cheers
