Can you explain what a follicle germ is? A nylon thread? Size of the scar? They claim it’s an FUT scar. How does the hair grow? Around that area? I can also copy and paste, the point is to break it down so everyone knows what is going on. We can do it, in a friendly manner and I’m all ears.
I reckon a hair follicle germ is a 'preliminary' follicle undergoing morphogenisis when implanted into the patient. A nylon thread to control growth direction, worked in mice. The hair grows out of the single follicle that underwent morphogenisis as it would normally, not arround a general area. As for the scar, they said you'd need 10cm² of hair on your scalp to reproduce 100k follicles, not sure what the implications are for scar size and extraction method.
