I agree-the verdict should be out on Acell by the end of the year. However, enough time has passed for there to be some visual evidence and frankly, I haven't seen any. Like you mentioned, Dr. Cooley starting experimenting with Acell towards the end of 2009 (2+ years). Also, several doctors have been offering PRP/Acell injections, claiming that it helps retain hair and thickens miniaturized hairs. As far as injecting a combination of Acell and PRP onto the scalp for the purpose of retaining hair and increasing density, there should be some evidence that we could point at and say: Aha, this is working! But there is none; not one pic that has me feeling even the slightest bit optimistic.
Perhaps Acell will be beneficial in healing the wounds created during a hair transplant. In that sense, it would be good. I just don't see anything that leads me to believe that it will increase density or that it is a "fertilizer," of sorts, for transplanted hairs. Maybe they just need time to tweak it all. I hope that's the case. Till then, I'll keep spectating.
