I came across this and thought it was pretty interesting:

Hmmm.... I have serious reservations about anything where someone injects anything into the scalp. I'd like to see the placebo-controlled studies on this one, as well as what FDA approved concoctions they're talking about.

Interesting find nonetheless.

Yeah I think that it is boloney to be honest.

For some types of hair loss (like Alopecia Areata) injenctions can be used to try to control it, but I don't think with most cases of MPB that it would make any sense to do so.

They seem pretty confident about this treatment. I still don't buy it.

Maybe Sam could interview them. I'd prefer to stick with nanosomal topicals

My opinion is that this modality should be avoided. Injections into the scalp?? I'd like to see serious studies that prove that this works better than existing treatments and more safely (or equally safely) before even thinking about interviewing them.
