Hair multiplication and cloning literally mean the production of genetically identical creatures. In the hair multiplication process, in the sheep dolly cloning, which is known as the first clone alive, one of the normal sheep body cells was taken and the genetic material in the nucleus was transferred to a sheep egg cell from which the genetic material was previously extracted. With the division of this fertilized egg cell, a new zygote started to form. When the cloned embryo reaches a certain size by cell divisions, it is transferred to the uterus of the sheep and its growth and development are completed here. Unlike cloning, what is tried to be done in genetic engineering is that the gene that causes hair loss or another disorder is found and detected, and the defect in this gene is repaired and reintroduced into the cell nucleus.

What is Hair Cloning? 

Hair multiplication and cloning practice give hope to many people. It started to make a name with the cloning adventure that started in the last century. Hair multiplication and cloning process pave the way for new inventions in many fields, especially in health. It has also been the subject of many types of research and experiments in its field. Although it is still an experimental method, hair cloning is thought to meet the needs of many people in the future. 

Cloning Studies in the field of Hair Transplantation

In hair transplantation, grafts on the neck are added to the area to be treated. However, some people may have little or poor quality hair on the nape of the neck. In this case, the hair root taken from the chest area is planted in the area of ​​the head. Since the type of hair root can be different, the hair root taken from the nape may not give a nice result like the hair root taken from the nape. However, it is still a preferred method.

The hair multiplication and cloning method come into play at this point. Tens of thousands of hair follicles are cloned in the laboratory from strong hair follicles (approximately 50-100) to be taken from the nape, and transplantation is performed to the required area. First of all, it should be noted that hair multiplication and cloning are currently not applied in any country.

The researched hair cloning application is currently only in the experimental phase. The world’s leading health organizations have not yet approved. Hair multiplication and cloning process are planned to be implemented in the next 5-10 years. 

The Main Problems of Cloning

The biggest problem monitored in the laboratory environment is the growth of hair. After the hair is produced as a stem cell, these hair follicles are transplanted. Then they cannot take a natural direction or angle. The reason for this is the formation of hair follicles, including before birth. The process of taking direction can be said to be formed over the years. After the hair follicles are cloned, they are regenerated as in a normal hair transplant. A natural appearance can be obtained by placing it at an angle in incisions.

Hair multiplication and cloning can cripple cells and take the risk of developing cancer. The FDA has not approved hair cloning as a medical treatment. Once confirmed, hair cloning does not cause a visible scar. It will be an attractive alternative to many people.

Differences between Stem Cell Therapy and Hair Cloning

Stem cell therapy is the process of taking a healthy cell from a person, growing it in an artificial environment, and placing it back in the patient. All kinds of cells can separate from living organisms and live in the laboratory environment. And can be enlarged. With a cell-specific application, the data that will treat the disease are transferred. However, stem cell therapy is used in very serious diseases. And it is a treatment method subject to scientific research.

Hair multiplication and cloning are generally similar to stem cell therapy. However, it differs in some respects. Hair root cells are removed. It is divided, reproduced, and enlarged in the laboratory environment, keeping the basic codes. And reintegrated into the person. However, one of the biggest problems in practice is that these cells, which are divided and grown and grown in an artificial environment, cannot adapt to the body as a result of the re-transfer to the person. In this case, there is no physical damage to the person. The application alone does not yield successful results. 

Auto Hair Cloning

There is another method called auto hair cloning or hair grafting. The connection between cells in the hair follicles taken from the person is activated. Follicle cells are modeled and re-injected into the person. Hair roots are renewed and strengthened. New hair starts to grow from the scalp. This method, called hair cloning or grafting, is one of the hair transplant applications. In the hair grafting method, the quality of the hair that grows after transplantation increases. The number of hair follicles increases and more hair grows. New hair follicles are formed in the donor area. The openings in the scalp are also closed in a short time. There is no need for a second session in the auto hair cloning technique.

Results of Hair Multiplication and Cloning

It provides the growth of stem cells by producing fresh tissue with the replication method. In addition, the quality of the existing hair increases, and shedding is prevented. However, scientific studies on hair multiplication and cloning are currently ongoing. It is unquestionable that hair cloning, which is a miraculous remedy for people who want to transplant hair but do not have enough donors or hair follicles suitable for transplantation, will create a medical revolution if it is over. Also, Hair multiplication and the cloning process will work very well for transplantation.
