Dr Gho is a researcher in the Netherlands working on a process called hair multiplication. He has patented a technique to take hairs, extract some of the hair growing cells, grow them in a laboratory and then inject them back into the scalp where they will develop into a hair producing follicles.

Recently there has been a lot of speculation that he is ready to start doing procedures. Well we unfortunately have information that contradicts that and seems to indicate that his procedure is not ready yet.

Will Gerritsen, the journalist who originally wrote the story that publicized Dr Gho's work in April 15, 1998, recently tried to do an update interview with Dr Gho. Unfortunately he received the following reply which was forwarded onto us by our Dutch correspondent.

Dear X,

Dr Gho and I agreed upon him contacting me within half a year, as soon as there's a breakthrough. He has made progression, but is still having some difficulties with the protocol. I suggest you follow our site www.limburger.nl on wednesdays. This is the day when we publish our weekly extra edition Scala-Health.

Yours sincerely, Will Gerritsen (Newspaper De Limburger)
