What is Hair Cloning?

Hair cloning is a promising treatment of androgenic alopecia, or common hereditary hair loss, is actively studying through groundbreaking hair restoration doctors, like Dr. Bernstein collaboration with Columbia University, hoping to become the first to develop a "cure" hair loss. Hair cloning, sample a person's germinal hair follicle cells are multiplied in vitro (in vitro), and then re-implanting them, I hope they grow new hair follicles, so new permanent hair scalp.
This fascinating field that is not only interesting because of the nature of the rapid development of scientific cloning hair, but more specifically, because the hair cloning method to get treatment, effectively "cured" Common hair loss potential - that scientists and doctors are searching for decades.



Hair cloning is often used to describe a wide range of words about how to use laboratory procedures to solve the problem of hair loss ideas. Technically speaking, however, there is real hair cloning and hair multiplication technique for the difference between the treatment of baldness. We will explore the differences in the next section.

What hair multiplication?
In contrast to hair cloning, which have emerged in vitro substantially unlimited amount multiplied by the hair reproduction, donor hair follicles are removed from the scalp, and then manipulate the way, to increase the total amount of hair. This may involve the use of cross-sectional, or cut, the hair follicles implanted directly into them, hoping to re-grow hair follicles is a complete hair and scalp. Another technique is using plucked hair fragments, rather than whole or transected follicles.

The concept behind using plucked hair multiplication is that it is easy to get budding cells, non-invasive procedure. In addition, dry hair plucked hair as a ready-made scaffold introduction and adjustment budding new cell sites. Desirably, removing a small portion of budding cells, by plucking, provide sufficient tissue for developing a new hair follicles, without reducing the original one. The problem with this approach is that, generally produce cells with inadequate extraction of hair to induce the formation of new hair follicles.

A form of hair multiplication, hairs plucked from the scalp or beard, and then implanted in the bald part of the scalp. Our idea is that under some bud cells in the hair follicle is taken out with the hair. When the hair is re-injected, the cells can regenerate a new hair follicles. Microscopic examination of plucked hair could help the doctor determine which objects have a connection and therefore the stem cells, which are likely to regenerate. The program is called the hair follicle plucked "hairs" are re-grow new hair, can provide an unlimited supply.
