HairClone aims to rejuvenate miniaturizing hair follicles through follicle banking and cell expansion, with treatments potentially available in the UK by 2022. The process involves extracting, storing, and cloning hair follicles, but full regenerative treatments will take many years to develop.
A user shared their positive experience with PRP and stemcell treatment for hair loss, noting it nearly stopped their hair loss after previous use of finasteride and minoxidil. Another user mentioned PRP helped maintain their hair, though its effectiveness decreased over time, and they experienced side effects from dutasteride.
Hair transplant recipients are concerned about whether dormant follicles are permanently damaged by incisions, but some believe undamaged follicles could still regrow if a treatment like PP405 is effective. Opinions vary on the impact of transplants on original follicles, with some suggesting treatments like finasteride can help regrow hair.
