Future treatments compatibility w/ HTs

[Tracy C]

Well then, make a suggestion of who might know better? Contribute to the forum rather than impede it.

Um, I don't impede this forum in any way.

The best person to ask would be a doctor who specializes in treating hair loss.

I find it hard to believe that having an HT would mean that any of these treatments would no longer work anywhere on your head.

So do I. There is just no good reason to think that it would and no credible evidence to suggest that it would.

Yah and this is a public online forum, not a medical research centre. Of course I would say a doctor, but there arent any here so obviously the person who'd know best is Maradona as he's done quite a bit of research on the matter himself.

The reality is that no one knows whether any of the pipeline treatments will work on previously transplanted patients. As far as we know, most, if not all, of the clinical testing is being done on virgin scalps. Personally, I doubt having a HT would mean the new treatments wouldn't work on any areas of scalp, but HTs can create scar tissue in both the donor and recipient areas, and I don't understand why anyone would think that the pipeline treatments would grow hair out of scar tissue.

i don’t understand why anyone would think that any “pipeline treatments” would grow hair for each and every patient at all.
