I posted about this at Regrowth many moons ago..but I noticed they've updated the site a bit(interactive presentation, which was working the other day, etc) and you get a lot more hits when Google'n for it these days.

This latest Peptide Chemistry Discovery works directly on the scalp by stimulating production of Type 1 Collagen , Type 3 Collagen (which are the most important) and the connective tissues in the Inner Skin Layer (Dermis) ensuring that the Papillary Layer remains Young and Healthy. As the scalp skin age faster than skin from other parts, Amino Fibro Sequence has the ability to enhance Dermis Metabolism and Structure contributing to Regeneration of the Dermis and Reversing the Aging Process.

Follispheres Delivery Technology™
This novel New Generation Delivery Technology makes use of modified natural polymers as vehicles to carry Active Ingredients including Proteins and Peptides. Unlike Liposomes which have many shortcomings, Follispheres are sponge-like Solid Microspheres which is completely compatible with human cells and tissues. This technology allows higher dosage of Active Ingredients to be Absorbed and Encapsulated thus stabilizing the Active Ingredients and is known to be able to penetrate through the Scalp Debris for better Follicle Action.

I thought this was interesting:

Q: Are there any side affects when using the IFE?
A: Some people may experience slight itching and flaking during the first few weeks. Itching can be from the improved blood circulation to the follicles and flaking is usually due to the exfoliation effect on the scalp skin to improve the scalp condition.

Funny you say "increase blood flow"... because I have been checking out my head using that little camera I keep talking about, and my MPB zones seem to be taking on a healthier pinkish glow (before they looked pale and dead) since starting A&G...

It is still no where near as good as my would-be donor scalp area, but I think there has been some improvement thus far, we shall see if it continues to improve and if there is a significant difference I will post some photos

Do you not remember the Follizin/Follicin scandal?

[chore boy]

Regardless of the Onion, it's still a questionable product.

[Jacob]

As is nearly everything else being discussed these days. The "Onion" etc were dismissed in that thread though.

That grand opening/launch is different too...not that it makes it any more credible.

[1.....]

is there anyone who has tried this or know of anyone in any other forum. sounds interesting.

[Jacob]

I'd like to know as well.

It seems it actually is made in the USA(Houston)..which has me a bit more interested. I mean...it's something that a specific company here has to make for them...their tech is needed? Instead of all the companies in China..Singapore...you name it. Maybe the company here has a patent on it. Who knows.

I would like to know if it's a scam or real too. How much does a 3 month supply cost? and did they state that on-going use can reverse Male Pattern Baldness?

[Jacob]

I'm trying to find out more info, even get them to post here(if Sam allows). The cost is S$118 which I'm assuming translates to(at the moment) $78.94 US. Not sure if that includes shipping. It'd need to be TT'd(wire transfer).

If someone in the US or even Canada(ahem!) would sell it....

Hey Jacob,

I would love to know the ingredients. After my reaction to the A&G I am a little cautious about ingredients, particularly alcohols etc that it might contain. Whatever information you get please pass on to us. As always, thanks for bringing this one to everyone's attention.

[Jacob]

I've asked about ingredients..and some other things. I'm thinking possibly an update from them tonight..because of the time difference. Didn't hear back from them all weekend.

[Jacob]

Finally..

Will be using Fedex Pac and it cost S$99.00 excluding tax which will be paid
by receipient. And the price for 3 FOLLIZIN will be S$354.00.

And also the ingredients are :- AQUA, blue algae extract, margosa, sulphured
amino acid, celastrus paniculata extract, collodial sulphur spondios amara
extract, rubus bramble berries, trichomonuus japonicum maxim, chinese
wormwood, maiden hair fern, octapeptide, phenoxythenol, butylene glycol,
dimethicone, hydrolisate of milk protein, solanum butylene glycol,
triethanolamine, sulfomucopolysacch aride extract, homotaurine, henna
extract, barosma betulina tubersum extract, silanediol salicylate,
methylparaben, propylparaben, immidizole urea

Most of the ingredients do look good. I just wish someone in the USA would sell it, since it's made here

Edit..although..at the moment I don't see anything that would make it encapsulated/liposomal-like.

[Jacob]

Ha.. it is available here. At least I bet it's made by the same company: http://www.microneedle.com/main/hair_re ... mplex.html

De-ionized Water, Algae Extract, Phenoxyethanol, Propylene Glycol, Glycerin, Margosa, Hydrolysate of Milk Protein, Solanum Tuberosum Extract, Silanediol Salicylate, Butylene Glycol, Triethanolamine, Sulphured Amino Acid, Sulfomucopolysaccharide Extract, Celastrus Paniculata Extract, Colloidal Sulphur, Spondios Amara Extract, Rubus Bramble Berries, Trichomonus Japonicum Maxim, Chinese Wormwood Extract, Homotaurine, Maiden Hair Fern Extract, Henna Extract, Barosma Betulina, Sodium Benzoate, Potassium Sorbate, Polypeptide (Leucine, Proline, Lysine, Glutamine, Aspartic Acid, Metionin, Alanine)

[Jacob]

This getting interesting..or should I say crazy. It's also this product, which some of us have known about for some years now: http://www.activorcorporation.net/id10.html

[Jacob]

And http://www.clinicares.com/regenscalp/

And we now know who makes it(although it links to the same website as above..):

Manufactured by: Insignia Lab Solutions

Their website is: http://www.insignialab.com/index.html

The two products are similar but different. My pg radar is finely tuned now and i noticed pg in the second one. The first one has some other glycols and some glycol paraben. Just wondering, should I be afraid of those after my reaction to the pg in the AGHC?

Thanks, jacob, for bringing all this stuff to our attention.

That may be something you'd have to experiment with..and/or ask around if anyone who's had problems with PG have had problems with the one you mentioned.

I don't get why the products have most if not all of the same "active" ingredients...but the other ingreds vary. I think even the order of the active ingreds varies.

[Jacob]

Some before/afters(and you know how I just love pics ) http://www.clinicares.com/regenscalp/example.html

I do like the hair gel idea..just wish the alcohol wasn't there..and that it could be nanosomal..and...and... http://www.clinicares.com/regenscalp/product.html

[hairsucks]

Hey Jacob,

you said that some of you guys have known about the telostatin product for years, do you recall anyone trying it?

since it's all the same ingreds and it been out for years it can't be that good then?

[Jacob]

I don't know of anyone who has tried it. Some of the places that sell it would lead you to believe it must be at least an ok product..but like you say..where's all the postive feedback?

Follizin is supposed to have a lipo/nanosome type delivery system though..but I still don't see anything in the ingredients that point to such tech. Maybe they'll answer me on that....

[hairsucks]

I think I might order some of that MTS matrix and buy a separate dermaroller, What do you think Jacob?

Does it look ok? Same ingredients as follizin? http://www.microneedle.com/main/catalog ... it=8&Ict=2

[Jacob]

Since I've never seen any feedback from any of the above mentioned products(which all seem to be the same 'cept for the order of ingreds and other or different non-active ingreds) I would say it may be worth trying if you're willing to give it a good half a year or so test.

I'd probably try it if I weren't already using other things.

[Swimmy]

Interesting. They look like decent products. But very little information on them. The Matrix and Regen look more reasonable. than Follizin. I wish there was more feedback on these products to give them a try.

those pics look promising
