Follica at it again?!
Credit to "Xaser94" for finding the following information;

So what do you guys think? False promises or real potential coming from Follica?
-
Looking at the team involved I guess we can expect something coming out of this. At least a little something...
-
They probably waited so long to really get things started until the approval of Cotsarelis' patent application, which was the case at the end of last year:

Follica back at it again with the hair loss treatment.
But seriously what is this? Controlled dermarolling? And wasn't the consensus always that wounding wasn't to increase absorption.
-
I've been interested in the wounding strategy for a long time.
I'm a little surprised they aren't using lasers for the wounding. I would think that would be easier to fine-tune the exact damage you're trying to inflict, as oppose to just dermarolling.
Either way, lots of science behind wounding and hair growth... it was just a matter of time until the nailed down a protocol for it.
-
Another one repeatedly written off as dead... good news.

Yeah, it's pretty cool ! I crossed my fingers for this.
Follica gives a job:
"Follica is launching a novel device system for the treatment of hair loss, building on the breakthrough connection between wound repair and hair follicle neogenesis"

Great stuff, finally some news to kick off 2016!
That release schedule seems very near, but I do clearly remember cotsarelis talking about this about 2 years ago to Desmond!
He said they already knew about wounding and had an interesting product that had an effect on hairloss, but everything was silent after that, until this post!
excited to see some results here, as well as the next round of results from SM
