Microneedling Photo Results Summary

[kiwi666]

It would be nice to make a thread of non responders too

I agree but what amount of time do you need before you’re a non responder. Some people are saying try for a year before you can be a non responser.

Also there will be two types. Those who non respond who aren’t of Min. And those that are.

What do you reckon?

I guess I'd go for a year based on what we know

I’m studying GOMI topicals protocol.
1) L’Oreal Stemoxydyne & Depakine VPA?
L’Oreal I have & agree with.
What’s his thinking on Depakine VPA?

 

[Jakejr]

To those studying GOMI, See link where he on another site, (as a moderator) laid out his protocol in GREEK language. It is more illuminating & fuller description. I am looking at a translation of his original posting.

Can we apply some healing lotion after? Really don't want my scalp to look like I've got some disease for days after lol

I use a mixture of coconut oil, joba oil, castor oil, rosemary essential oil, peppermint oil and tea tree.

I’d also be keen to find out the best daily natural protocol after wounding for growth?

I think vpa has to do with Wnt signaling

@Jakejr & @TNTS - GOMI is an interesting case study since he did not use Minoxidil. At the same time - he used soooo many other things in place of where people would just use Minoxidil, it becomes less interesting in a sense. It is difficult to understand what was crucial to his success.

Yeah I wrote up a pretty barebones summary of what he talks about in the thread. Gomi's results were amazing there's got to be something in there somewhere worth using

 

[overpourgoodfortune]

@nohairnolife - Agreed. Timing is also interesting to note on the gallon of topicals he puts on. Usually starting on Day 4 - which is when the old layer of skin typically begins peeling off. He starts taking care of the new layer of skin right away.

GOMI hair doesn’t look real.. looks like it was drawn with a sketch pencil.

You may want to add the results of the Brazilian study as well.
They just had monthly sessions and showed very good results IMO. The infusion of minoxidil (Case 1) during needling is quite unique. I find it also interesting that minoxidil was used only during needling and not daily (I believe) . Sadly the study was only done with two participants.

Thanks @Rudi - Do you have a URL?

@overpourgoodfortune i have a question.
Isit ok to use the MYM nc-2 dermapem model? It seems to be just a cheap chinese generic compared to the Dr. Pen A7 which i cant afford right now (live in south africa).
It seems to do the same job and takes 12 pin cartridges to. Will that suffice?

 

[fauxhawk]

Got it off ebay heres the link

[overpourgoodfortune]

@fauxhawk Hey! I can't speak for that model in particular from personal experience. I use a 'cheap' model as well from "TBPHP" which was around $70 Canadian for me.... so about a third the price of the Dr. Pen A7 which is ~$190 CAD for me. I opted for cheap.

The model you show seems very similar to the pen I have... multiple speeds and adjustable up to 12mm. You can always give it a whirl. It could be a good question to ask on the big thread to see if anyone else has experience with it?

Thanks @Rudi - Do you have a URL?

I have sent a private message with details

Male androgenetic alopecia treated with microneedling alone or associated with injectable minoxidil by microinfusion of drugs into the skin

This is name of the document...
