Zenagen hair loss shampooDozens of alleged treatments for female and male pattern baldness are manufactured and advertised every year. The question is – do any of these products actually work to stop hair loss or regrow lost hair?

Zenagen advanced hair solution is a shampoo that claims to block DHT (dihydrotestosterone), reduce hair shedding, and speed up hair growth all for approximately $17 per month. But is there any clinical evidence to suggest this shampoo is a successful solution for hair loss?

Recently, new forum member “Grany” who claims to be a physician asked the members of our community for feedback on Zenagen shampoo. You are encouraged to offer your input and/or experience with Zenagen on our hair restoration forum.

While no cure for hair loss yet exists, millions of balding men and women worldwide hope that hair multiplication (HM) will end baldness once and for all. By cloning derma papilla cells and injecting them into hairless scalp tissue, hair multiplication/cloning may eventually provide balding men and women with an unlimited supply of their own natural hair.

Intercytex and Aderans Research Institute are two major contenders in developing hair cloning amongst other treatments. However recently, Intercytex announced that they’re closing the doors after several long hard years of working to develop this hair loss treatment.

Patrick Hennessey, publisher of the Hair Transplant Network visited Intercytex’s hair multiplication operation in Manchester, England when he visited the Farjo Clinic back in May of 2007. While they appeared to have good management and promising preliminary results, their subsequent Phase II testing on humans failed to produce cosmetically significant hair regrowth.

Given the inconsistencies in hair growth observed in clinical studies, it would appear that discovering the potential of hair multiplication is still in its infancy stages. It’s suggested that the key to success may lie in growing stem cells in vitro to a hair follicle stage and then transplanting the hair follicles using today’s state of the art surgical hair restoration techniques.

To learn more about Intercytex and who may be taking over their research, visit “Intercytex discontinues its hair multiplication development operations”. You can also discuss this topic on our hair restoration forum.

Unfortunately, hair restoration technicians are seldom recognized for the hard work they do every day in assisting reputable surgeons deliver only the best results to their patients. And though it’s the surgeons who are prescreened and ultimately approved for recommendation on the Hair Transplant Network, a hair transplant physician is only as good as his/her technicians.

Today’s state of the art hair replacement procedures could never be performed by one person. A qualified physician requires and experienced and dedicated team of assistants to properly dissect and carefully place grafts into recipient sites.

A physician however, must be responsible at all times not only for their own skill and technique, but for what goes on under his/her supervision. This includes properly training and managing staff. If even one hair restoration technician is out of sync, a patient’s results can suffer dramatically and will inevitably and rightfully fall back on the physician.

To discuss and learn about the importance of surgical assistants in delivering only the best results, visit our discussion thread, “Hair Transplant Assistants”.
