I just checked their facebook and can't find anything of the sort. What kind of questions were they asked and how did they respond?

Look at the comments on their post from march 13th
Very impressed at the way that Canada is leading the way with finding scartreatment remedies.
Another Canadian Start-up(ScarX) has initiated Phase 1 trial ofa topical prescription cream to treatand prevent scarring.
If you live near Alberta, you can participate in the Trial by registering at: http://www.scartrial.info/
BirchBiomed trials are still quite exciting and It's already on clinical phase II:)
Hope I'll be accepted in medical school in september so I can be more in touch with this topic
I'm desperate to resolve my acne scar problem. I'm thinking about getting deep CO2 laser resurfacing then applying Acell with a liquid (like saline for example) to enhance penetration. Is there anything that would work better than Acell? At present, what is most likely to achieve scar free healing when applied directly after abrasion? Any advice would be tremendously appreciated.
I don't know, there's really nothing for scars that would regenerate skin after wounding at this point. I can't recommend acell as I've never tried it. Microneedling seems to be the best treatment for pitting, although it's likely that the tissue that fills in the pitting is at least partially fibrosed.
mjg, could you send a picture/screenshot of that great response you received from Susan? It would be really great to see it directly, and is a good reminder that we might have options as this thread and time continues.

The exact response of the email from Susan was: "Yes, FS2 actually prevented any scarring from forming in the first place AND it promoted the breakdown of existing scars.."
Here is another excerpt from Dr. Hartwell, sounds like good news to me! He is very nice and actually offered for me to call him and discuss FS2 further.
"You are, by all empirical accounts, correct in saying that it would be able to prevent a scar that was excised, however we realize that not every scar is the same (e.g. Keloid vs. hypertrophic).
Was the interview on a talk news station? If so you likely heard my shortened version of Fibrostop Development History. That is to say you are correct in that some of the candidates that we are investigating can be considered as NHPs under the Canadian Legislation. Aspirin, prior to being modified affords the Natural Label if you will- and while being a naturally derived compound, the chemistry that man brings to the table made a far superior drug (over salicylic acid).
Finally, to your last point it is our goal to development the drug and drug product as quickly as possible while ensuring that we deliver a safe/effective and approved product that is easily accessible to patients."

Make a huge tattoo on your back.
Or go to a dermatologist and get a consultation.
Albaneso, wait for the solution. Trust that it will be better, and allow the emotion of waiting for a better life to enact itself as excitement, rather than hopelessness. We learned anenormousamount of scar science in the past few years, and by either incorporating all those things together or waiting for the probable solution of FS2, the scars won't be a problem anymore. Wait and be excited.
Mjg I was enquiring about a photo/screenshot with your name blurred out or something, it's not that I don't trust you because I fully do. It's just nice to have a photo as well.

Tattoo is a stigma in my country 'KOSOVA' in western balkan. My dermatologist say: these scars can't treat, treatment for these scars are unsuccessful with very little improvement. Im totally ruined I dont go out im isolated in my home from depression.

Has anyone seen this company yet? http://www.polarityte.com/products/skinte

From what I read in the articles they were successful in reprogramming myofibroblasts (which causes scarring) to adipose fat cells (which will look like normal skin) in human and mouse cells.
I would say keep your hopes up. It seems we do have the technology for scarless healing. It just a matter of time they make it available to common folks.
