I feel like this is a MAJOR breakthrough and is overlooked. It goes hand in hand with needling and could possibly explain why needling works (especially at certain needle lengths which prick the follicles). I'd be willing to try this with needling as we are doing in numbers guy thread.
"Researchers explained that by damaging follicles, hair plucking stimulates the release of an inflammatory protein termed CCL2. Once released, CCL2 recruits specific immune cells to the area. These immune cells, termed macrophages, then release a cell-signalling molecule, termed TNFα, which stimulates the regeneration of all nearby hair follicles, resulting in a 5-fold increase in hair growth"
