    Default Dr. Marwa Fawzi Regrows Large Amounts of Hair

    I know that the article that I'm attaching is almost three years old, but Dr. Fawzi regrew large amounts of hair in these young people. I realize that these boys suffered from alopecia areata, yet with the massive amounts of hair that they regrew, I really think that this could have very positive effects in people suffering from male pattern baldness. This was such a successful study yet there has been no follow-up news about how this could be used to help people with androgenetic alopecia. Since this method was autologous, and was used on these boys without any clinical trials, I really think this could be used on men with male pattern baldness. Here's the article: http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?p...d=a6OdEa5VFNV8

    holy shit, great article. If Replicel is doing the same thing I'd say this is great news. I wonder if they collaborated with this doctor?

    Just wondering how would one know if they r suffering. Suppose if u r losing ur hair massively at just 19 then r u suffering from alopecia areata? or MPB is there a way to tell?

    Her success with the method was actually why I've always been so enthusiastic about what Replicel and Aderans are doing. Although it's not MPB, it's certainly a proof of concept that cell based therapies can have some efficacy in some types of hairloss. Hopefully MPB too. I think it's going to work wonders for female hairloss.

    If the treatment works, she plans to look into its usefulness for androgenic alopecia, better known as male pattern baldness.
    Serious derp right here. Obviously the treatment works, it had just stated earlier in the article that five of the children had a 50 percent increase in hair.

    That said, seriously wondering what happened to this. Why did it not garner more attention? Where did it go? Perhaps some research is in order.

    I agree with you, clandestine, and that's why I posted this. It may be similar to what Replicel or Aderans is doing, yet I believe that Marwa Fawzi's treatment could help us right now, and not some number of years in the future. And Fawzi's treatment apparently did not require clinical trials, so that means it has a large degree of safety to it. After all, they wouldn't use young children as guinea pigs to a potentially unsafe treatment on. I mean, the results of this treatment were just so phenomenally successful, yet I have never heard anything about this since 2009. It makes me very suspicious.

    Spencer should try and get in touch with her for sure... If it's true, it definitely deserves more attention.
