What about this?

Yeah I've seen that study in the past. I'm not sure what to think of it. One explanation might be that it's fake, like there are so many fake research articles out there. Another explanation might be that it actually works when you split the follicle under a microscope, like they've done in this study. I remember dr Gardner, who I hold very high, said he thought that it would be theoretically possible too, to dissect the follicle under a microscope, get the DP cells and make 2 new hairs that way.

I haven't read the whole study though, did they measure hair diameter ? If the resulting hair is 50% thinner then it's still not something really interesting.

Anyway, even if it would work, it's just not feasible, at least not by hand, it would take weeks of work to split like 3000 follicles, I think dr Gardner said about 3 minutes per follicle to dissect and split the DP cells, so 20 follicles an hour, 160 a day, 18 days for 1 patient.
