Anyone have cosmetically acceptable regrowth with Xeljanz?
I mean does anyone have regrowth like Kyle Rhodes from the Yale study using Xeljanz? So far the pictures I have seen are not nearly as promising. Link below with pictures of Rhodes regrowth

Hi, Yes,many have, but you would need to read thru ADML's 2,400 replies to see all the progressive pictures. Also, what do you mean by "cosmetically acceptable regrowth?" Acceptable to who?

I mean has anyone grown back a full head of hair like Kyle Rhodes has?

Where did that term "Cosmetically acceptable hair regrowth" come from? I heard that before and it was used in a derogatory way. For example, someone should not show their patchy regrowth in public until they had a certain amount of hair. I find that really offensive.

Xeljanzmiracle. Cosmetically acceptable regrowth is a term that dermatologists use regularly in their studies. I've read it a few times before, I wouldn't read too much into it.

Thanks, Ujjain, now I have defined it for myself. I still don't like that term because it IMPLIES that if you don't have all your hair back, or its not at a certain length, it doesn't "look good" to be out in public without a wig or some other headcovering. Its not "acceptable".

Yes I have. I have trouble in a few areas...Ophaisis and small temple spots but other than that I went from no hair to a full head of beautiful hair.

I think you reading too much into it. It's just an expression and not meant to be offensive

Im sure that wasn't your intention. So did you print out your co-pay card and activate it? Did you call Xelsource and ask them to send you enrpllment forms for Hardship Program so up you can take form to your doctor this Saturday?

I have not called Xelsource. I am going a different route which I will detail in new post.

Your Beeberine approach?

Hi mtran - I've been on xeljanz since July 2015 and I don't have acceptable regrowth to go out without a wig or beanie. I'm on 20mg a day with 400mg plaquenil. I keep waiting for the morning I wake up and see the bare areas filled in, but at this point it has not happened yet. I 100% understand what you mean by cosmetically acceptable regrowth. I'm a bit frustrated with this whole thing, but I'm staying the course. However, there is NO way I would go out in public with a half head of hair. Regardless of what others say, in my opinion, hair does matter for ones self esteem.
