The Pioneering Hair Growth and Hair Treatment Technology of Dr. Gho

Anyone concerned with hair growth, hair cloning, alopecia, hair treatment and so on is probably familiar with the controversial work of Dr. Coen Gho, a Dutch medical doctor and dermatologist who has been a pioneer in efforts to develop practical hair regrowth treatments for male pattern baldness and alopecia.

Dr. Gho’s research has been followed closely by numerous experts in the field of hair transplantation and rejuvenation. He has been criticized, however, for not submitting his research to the rigorous scrutiny of peer-reviewed scientific journals.

Throughout the 1990s, Dr. Gho developed specialized techniques of hair follicle extraction and transplantion. The GHO Clinic was established in 1994 with offices at various places around the world, with head offices in Prague. In 2005, Dr. Gho resigned from the GHO Clinic and launched a new venture, The Hair Science Institute (HSI), located at the World Trade Center in Amsterdam.

According to HSI’s own website, the technology that Dr. Gho has developed — which he terms “HairStemcell Transplantation” (HST) — differs from other types of hair restoration techniques in that it does not redistribute existing hair but “ensures that your own hair generates new hairs in a desired area.”

One of the transplantation techniques Dr. Gho developed - the Follicular Multiplication – was established as a restorative method to treat burn wounds. In the clinical facilities of Hair Science Institute, this method has alleged been improved and is now refined to the advanced and patented technique that is now known as HairStemcell Transplantation.
