ok i just finished- took about 25mins. so far so good- scalp isnt butchered. just some little blood here n there.i will wait 3 hrs before applying the topical.ok i prepped my topical.
im gonna start wounding tonight with the roller first. wish me luck
How long did you go for?Here are the pictures of my second follica protocol treatment. This time with 1mm and less pressure which hopefully ends up at the 0.8mm as required. It is definitely less blood as with 0.75mm and Hard pressure.
Do your temples look roughly the same as mine after treatment
after my 20 min session using D1 at 0.75mm on fast setting I have got what feels like a very painful pimple on my scalp. infection?
Hi. I have a question that may sound dumb to you, but i have to ask, in follica's website, it says that their treatment aims to create new hair follicles and thicken existing ones. If that's the case, do you think that it is possible to use their products on the donor area for those who have had hair transplants and suffer from overharvesting? Sorry for the long question.
I though about this as well i don't think it will work as graphs are 4mm deep holes tho i don't know if you could microneedle the top layer of scar tissue away and grow hair with scared under layer.
I wondered if this would be easier with beard transplant area as this hair is aggressive growing compared to scalp i have scar where i cut a raised black hair mole off my jawline in my teens the hair that later grew back there was white then changed to match the surrounding hair.
But i think the depth of the punch scar probably makes it all not possible with out crazy 4 to5mm needling if at all.
Sure it's been about a month since this came out, if not more. Anyone following the follica protocol able to chime in with results?

As I commented before, the day after my second session my whole scalp was covered in dead skin. I’m not sure if it was a slight infection, or my body healing from all the microwounding; but it was really bad flakes for a couple days; even formed a scab on the side of my head. I finally got some psoriasis shampoo a couple days ago and it seems to have cleared up. Outside of that, my temples and hairline have a lot of new smaller hairs from what I can see. I’m not sure if applying minoxidil directly afterwards is helping or not, but I will say my hair overall looks a lot healthier and I feel much more comfortable about it. Hopefully I’ll see some serious improvement by month three like in the studies.
Sorry to ask but could you simply give an explanation of what the protocol is for someone who has been out of the forum for some time? Also how to achieve it with a dermapen?Sure it's been about a month since this came out, if not more. Anyone following the follica protocol able to chime in with results?
Glad I’m not alone. It was probably the most dandruff I’ve ever had in my life. Have you noticed any new hairs or anything?After a few days my whole top layer of skin is dead, and I spend a half hour scraping all the dandruff off my scalp
