A physician and medical researcher becomes a believer - John Given MD

A man and physician, I began androgenic hair loss at age 17 and, over the ensuing years, “tried everything.” Resigned to just give up any hope, I was approaching near end-stage male pattern baldness at age 69. This final phase included loss of nearly all of the previous 2000 transplanted hairs.

Over all those years, I had consistently noticed and wondered about the significance of the sebum plug at the base of each fallen hair. With that as background, SIMFORT infomercial captured my interest by addressing this issue of the sebum plug.

A man and physician, I began androgenic hair loss at age 17 and, over the ensuing years, “tried everything.” Resigned to just give up any hope, I was approaching near end-stage male pattern baldness at age 69. This final phase included loss of nearly all of the previous 2000 transplanted hairs.

Over all those years, I had consistently noticed and wondered about the significance of the sebum plug at the base of each fallen hair. With that as background, SIMFORT infomercial captured my interest by addressing this issue of the sebum plug. It was a pathophysiologic explanation which made sense to me from a medical and scientific standpoint. I decided to give SIMFORT a try knowing I would have to remain compliant for a minimum of 3 months. After all, although male pattern hair loss is relentless, it takes place gradually. I knew it would take at least a few months before I could expect any visible results.

During the first month, I noticed that fallen hairs on my clothes and workspace became fewer and then stopped altogether. I sampled and inspected some intact hairs. None showed the “plug” which I had seen so consistently before starting SIMFORT carbonic acid shampoo. Intrigued by these observations, I continued daily use. As the 3-month interval passed, I noticed more changes. Not major, definite changes were noticeable to someone like myself who had carefully inspected his scalp and fallen hairs so many, many times before. The changes, which included some tiny hairs at the periphery and several new hairs appeared in the middle of a completely bald area!

Impressed but not completely convinced, I continued daily use of SIMFORT.
At the 6-month mark, my wife could verify my observation of new hair growth. This was the first and only time I observed a positive change during my fifty year battle with hair loss.
Now, well over a year since starting, I am now an enthusiastic advocate for SIMFORT. At this point, others can “see a difference” in my hairline. My hair loss has stopped and a gradual reversal is underway now that I can protect my hair follicle from stifling sebum buildup. It takes time. l have no illusions of hair restoration to that of a sixteen year-old but ... recovery is continuing. I will never stop using SIMFORT. My two sons, also showing early hair loss, have begun using SIMFORT. I encourage them to stay with it. “Be patient ... but stay with it.”

This product should be evaluated further from a scientific standpoint. This important advance in understanding and treatment of male pattern baldness debunks the other theories and claims with a straightforward explanation and solution: The final step of androgenic hair loss is the cumulative toxic effect sebum accumulation within the hair follicle. Over time the damaged follicle atrophies and involutes. What is the key biochemical change in sebum composition? Not known. Why confined to the scalp? Not known.

The point is this. The final step leading to visible hair loss is accumulation of sebum. This can be ameliorated through regular dissolution of dysfunctional sebum by the components in SIMFORT shampoo.
