Please continue with the follow-ups (hair and face). Your practical research is invaluable!
Will do!
@@thehonestchannel Yes please do it has been a while now, what is the latest? Keep up the good work! ;)
@@martinkb10 HI. I published this update recently with new (and impressive) pics of my dad's continued hair growth!
@@thehonestchannel Thank you
Those are some great results! Especially your dada results at 78 are impressive
Thanks Claudia. My dad is very pleased with himself!
you're so real, so honest and so refreshing. thank you
Thank you. That is lovely to hear ❤️
Cannot wait for followups to this and the mnm video. Thank you, great video!!!
I can't wait to hear your Adipeau update!!!!
great video ! keep us updated with progress ! thankyou !
Will do!
Another great video Claire! I've been watching you for a while and just subscribed! I started Adipeau a month ago and am really hoping for improvement around my mouth and temples (I know there isn't much hope for temples really.) I'm also using Oneskin and TNS growth factors. The quality of my skin is much improved- less pigmentation, bright & smooth. I'm turning 50 as well and the loss of bone density and sagging is beginning to show. Thanks for all your great investigative work!!!
Welcome to the channel! Do let me know how you get on with the Adipeau cream. Good to hear you're seeing a difference with OneSkin. I do feel growth factors are the way forward for skincare!
Wow!
This is what you call a proper detailed review👏🏾
I’m glad I found your Chanel!..
#subscriber😜
Good morning Clare! Looking forward to watching. 🤩
Good morning - and thank you : )
I use both Calecim and One Skin. I justify the cost by telling myself that this is a priority for me as I am a skin care junkie and investing in myself is what makes me happy and dont ever shell out big dollars on designer bags , shoes or clothes which does nothing for oneself but more like a show off to others that one has the the finance to strut around in branded stuff...lol. Really , think about it - no designer clothes , bags and shoes can camouflage a old wrinkly body or a saggy face...lol
I guess we all have our own priorities : )
right and you say ZERO about results. Proof there are NONE!!!
Amazing results
Your mother is 80 in that photo?!? Wow, she looks far younger! Also, thank you so much for this hugely helpful video update! Been keenly anticipating it :) You and Claudia are the best! ^_^
Thank you! She's looking and feeling well for her age and we want to keep her that way : ) So glad you enjoy the channel. I love Claudia's content too!
@@thehonestchannel ~ Love your accent and Scottish sense of humour too! ^_^ All best wishes from Brighton X
@@Aurla-R2-D2 Thank you! Sending love to you in sunny Brighton! x
You got me hooked on Calecim, I just started the hair restorative and got their free samples. Then I ordered the multi acting cream because I liked the samples so much. I'm also on my third bottle of Adipeau! Claire, you are costing me a fortune (Kidding!) - but these products are really working for me. I've tried plenty of expensive stuff that doesn't work - I really appreciate your thorough reviews.
I’m so glad to hear they’re working for you but, like you, I wish they were a little cheaper! I love the multi-action cream too. It’s perfect for balancing my oily skin and the longer you use it I think the results keep improving.
Great video!
Your skin looks great! I'd love to see a review of Bluelene, and the anti-aging effects of Methylene Blue.
Sorry for the delay in replying - got a review and interview around Bluelene coming up soon.
Your skin looks very nice and plump.😍
Thank you!
Thanks for this! I’ve been curious about innovative anti-inflammatory scalp and skin products because I have hidradenitis suppurativa and it has worsened on my face and scalp and is treatment resistant. But younger looking skin, fewer grays and thicker hair would also be welcome!
Glad you found it helpful!
Love this!! Excellent balanced reporting from you as usual, thanks 🙏🙏 I may save up for my husband’s bald spot 😂
Glad you found it helpful : )
Another great and informative video! Great results on both! Expensive but I'm curious and might check it out. Your skin looks fantastic, and curious what your mum thinks of Oneskin, and it's performance.
So glad you found this helpful. My mum really likes OneSkin - she's convinced it's making a visible difference. I've taken a before pic so will take a couple of afters soon and put a review video together.
I started using the Reactivate hair serum from liiitlextra for the past month and totally switched from my previous serum since the past two months. It's been great. I just apply it once every day with the spray pump that comes with the serum. It's really easy to use, not oily, and without any fragrance. The hair growth is up to now so good, and it's only one month only and I will continue to apply it.
Good to hear that's working for you!
Hi Claire, this product is working for hair growth so please keep up the follow - ups 😊
Will do! It’s the real deal.
coffee powder- even instant coffee made into a paste with a little water- rubbed onto scalp and left for 3 minutes before washing off in the shower- will wake up hair follicles :) You're welcome. It deters DHT! (so does fenugreek by the way)
Thanks for the tip!
the best natural repair and hydrating for my skin is the Andiroba nut oil from Brazil
Claire, watched your nira video from 3 years ago. You look younger now! Maybe it is the eyebrows? Much thinner before. So please continue to thicken your brows. I will try the calecim. I’ve been loving the adipeau despite the claims of adipeau owner about tretinoin 😂…..thank you for introducing us to all these products. I feel your sincerity in your reviews.
Thank you! I think getting microblading on my brows did definitely help. ❤️
Looking forward to your results whith ADIPEAU.
Hi Sandra. I'm going to cover those in a couple of weeks as part of the video on my full routine.
Yes please
I’m taking Her NMN as well almost 2 weeks
Impressing results! Would be interesting tough how it works compared to Minoxidil, which is the gold standard when it comes to hair loss and less expensive.
Thanks Claire. My husband did use minoxidil for a while and he thought it helped a bit but not on the same level as this. We're really hoping we can maintain the results by using only a small amount each week to keep the cost down. Time will tell.
mixodil gives u wrinkles
@@thehonestchannel Thanks for your answer! Those are amazing results then.
What an amazing video Claire! Loving these reverse aging videos. I was wondering if you saw had any effects from the Calecim serum on the restoring hair growth on the hairline. I feel like my problem is the hairline is receding on the forehead. It seems there was a discovery that these hair cells actually get "kicked out" so wondering if once these cells are kicked out if they would know how to regenerate again. Would love to know whether your husband or dad noticed any regrowth on the front hairline.
So glad you find the videos helpful. My dad hasn't really been using the serum at the front near his hairline but my husband has and feels there has been a thickening all over. There are quite a few before and after shots on the Calecim site itself which would be worth looking at. It's expensive but from everything we've seen the results are genuine.
@@thehonestchannel after 6 weeks, do you have continuously buy calecim to maintain results?
@@Benegesserite Hi. I talk about maintenance later on the video and how often my husband uses it maintain results but, yes, you need to keep using it but you can use less of it and less frequently
I think your whole face looks amazing. I’d love a skin care routine, I’m still using Adipeau, it gets better month by month for me.
That’s great to hear!
i just started my bottle of adipeau i damaged my fat pads by radio frequency hoping for the best. can u put sunscreen on it afterwards?
@@mysterioushands69 yes I do, I think you’ll like the Adipeau
@@mysterioushands69 ~ Hi, Why did the radio frequency cause damage? Did you use it too frequently? Was it Newa? Thanks X
RF can destroy facial fat. Mine was after one treatment. Big mistake!
can use for eye brows too?
I've been using the Qure microneedling kit with the EGF (epidermal growth factor, I think) serum. It goes through the needles, not just around them, like regular microneedling with a serum topically derived. My skin definitely looks more luminous and taut a few days afterward, increasing over the next few weeks, but I can't be sure how much is the growth factor vs microneedling, since I've only ever done either together.
Hi there, you have raised a very good point here. The stimulation of the scalp when using a micro-needling device is only enhanced when you use our stem cell-conditioned media. Doing a controlled study to compare the two different processes is something we are interested in conducting.
Thanks for sharing!!
Hi Claire! Quick query. After using half a bottle, do you need to store the bottle in the fridge or room temp? I haven't found any info about storage once the bottle is unsealed. Thanks in advance!
What if we use the serum with microneedling for the face?
Thank you for replying :) would the ingredients in the cream / serums , still work if they freeze while being shipped ?
Hi. I think Calecim would be best to answer that one if you drop them a message via their site
Try act&acre serum with apple stem cells. I think it works.
Thanks for the tip!
I was told the discount code was listed in the comments. However I don't see it. Anybody have the discount code?
I have been using growth factors for years..I won't go without them, tretinoin..and Vi C..I was using TNS..but wayy too expensive and also many more good ones have popped up..Bradceuticals is in that level of GF's used in TNS..Plant ones are weak compared and Bradceuticals is resonable..Please let me know if Calecim can be used with rogaine which I have used for a zillion years and I use a laser cap incredible results!!
Thanks for sharing your experience. As far as I’m aware you can combine Calecim with Rogaine.
You are beautiful without makeup. I just really needed to tell you lol, 😊
Thank you! : )
Has supplementing with MSM been considered? I’ve seen a lot of information within the natural hair community (specifically the YT channel Katherine Sewing). Could be worth looking into.
That sounds interesting - thanks for flagging.
Hi…I have just ordered with your discount code. Thanks. Just wanted to know it’s meant to be on clean hair (dried) I presume. Does that mean I can’t dry my hair with any products….ie mousse etc.
Yes, it’s applied to clean, dry hair. If you’re using product I would just avoid the scalp to leave it clean.
I am looking for the discount code. Can you help me?
I ordered the Bluelene but since it causes skin cells to proliferate am hesitant. Would it cause cancer cells to proliferate? What effect on on these?
Hi. I haven't looked into Bluelene so I'm not able to offer any information on that one I'm afraid.
Your husband does not even have hair loss problem, curious about the about your dad's status. Can you share a real short clip for your dad's hair after one or two months later to see if it really works. If so, I plan to try it on my hair. Thanks
My husband’s hair loss is a problem for him - it’s all relative to what we’re used to. Just published my dad’s 6 month results with before and after pics.
Has your husband and dad been using on just he back crown or front hairline as well? And if yes on front hairline has it been as successful there as well? Also looks like last update was 2 months ago. How’s it going since?
Hi David. They have mainly been focussing on the back in both cases. My husband is maintaining his results but my dad still seems to be building volume! I included new pics in this recent video ua-cam.com/video/RLlMKOmoCUM/v-deo.html and I’ll film an update in a couple of months
I've tried a new Inkey List product pretty recently. 15% Vitamin C + EGF. It has naturally derived epidermal growth factor and so far I've noticed it's been the only vitamin C serum that hasn't oxidized although I have started keeping it in the fridge. I love the closed pump packaging. It's around $20 here in Canada. I've heard plant derived stem cells are less superior. Curious your thoughts.
I'd love to hear how the serum works out for you. It's a great price if it can deliver results. I've also heard people say plant-derived growth factors aren't as effective, but it's very early days so I think the jury is still out on that one. I think OneSkin's peptides are plant derived and my mum is convinced it's working for her.
I'll definitely let you know when I'm through another bottle or two. Thanks so much!
@,Lisa White
Can you please update us on your inkey list Vit C serum? Looking forward to hearing from you soon.
@@SG-wq4rm It's still my Vitamin C serum of choice. There's a sale right now on the Inkey List site in Cananda so I just ordered 3 more for the price of 2.
My skin has been doing pretty amazing but it's hard to pinpoint specific actions since I'm on regime of various actives. Another thing I love is that besides the EGF the serum isn't blended with retinol, salicylic or other actives so I can use it every morning. It gives me more control to alternate with my evening treatments.
@@lisawhite8718 Thank you for your response! Just to clarify..... pardon my limited English skills....so you prefer plain Vit C ? I am so sorry to bother you with all this 🙏
If you had to choose between this brand for skincare or Auteur which would you choose? I am debating and need help .
The Auteur range was just too expensive for me but I've been using Calecim for this full year. Alongside red light I think it's done wonders for my skin health but it does take time.
can u do still photos of the hair
Sure. I can share them on the Community page of this channel.
what kind of derma roller should i use on my face to help bring back fat pads.
I lost my fat pads in my face after getting fractional laser done I have tried many things clear lift with red light worked wonders for my face
@@mohammedsaffyan1183 clear lift what is that?? im not sure what red light does?? could you please explain?
Loving the Calecim products,only 2 weeks in. My skin is far more hydrated and the texture is smooth. I’ve just started the hair system. So exiting see you husband and your Dads results. Thank you for the info. Any chance you are going to try the new night serum?
Great to hear you’re enjoying these products. The hair system in particular has proved extremely beneficial for my husband and my dad. I’ve just moved on to start testing another brand of skin cream now.
@@thehonestchannel I’m excited to see your next videos and follow your results.
Me too, I love the Calecium product. Combined with One Skin for face, and it's really making a difference. Love my skin now.
have u done PRP or PRF for hair growth
I haven't, no. They do sound interesting though.
What’s better for us growth factors or stem cells .?
Sorry for the delay in replying! Growth factors exist in stem cells too so it is very difficult to say which form is best/ penetrates the skin and acts on our cells best. It will take time and research to flush these things out - for now we can only go by what works for us as individuals along with budget.
wow!
Looks promising but not affordable for me. Thanks for the info!
Hopefully these kind or products will become cheaper over time.
Can you kindly tell me the price ! Oh okay 315 pounds that’s good ! Can we use your code ?
@@zaleenarbab3672 Yes, absolutely.
Does the hair serum work as well on female hair loss. Thyroid issues have thinned my hair quite noticeably.
My 80-year-old mum with a thyroid condition is now using this hair serum. It's definitely helping, just not as dramatically as my dad's. I will include her in my next results video.
Hello, I've been using multi-action cream and am curious about its scent. It's my second jar, and the cream smells a little like plastic or something that sat around for a period of time and is no longer fresh. Does your cream have a scent? Calecim did not return my inquiry. Thank you!
Hi. I mentioned the scent in my first update because the conditioned media does carry a slight biological smell which will be off-putting to some people. The cream is pretty much unscented compared with the hair serum, but I suspect it's the conditioned media from the stem cells that you're smelling.
Hi there! Thank you for your comment. Yes, Clare is absolutely correct. That smell is normal. We purposely chose not to add a fragrance. The smell you are experiencing is just the natural conditioned media that is packed full of wonderful proteins
Do you think this would work on eyebrows that have been plucked over the years.
That's a very good question. I will see if someone from Calecim could answer it.
Hi Angela! Thank you very much for your great question. Although we do not have clinical evidence for use on the eyebrows, the mechanism of increasing youth signal concentration and action stands true. Eyebrow follicles are different from the follicles on our head so may require additional time to notice a difference. If you are going to try it out, we would love to hear how you find it!
So in theory, I’d have to use this serum indefinitely?
Yes, or you could try just microneedling for a while to see if the results are maintained or try a combination of microneedling and red light. I use the skin products in three-month cycles.
Did you husband ever try minoxidil?
He did, yes, but he felt it wasn’t as effective
Would their skin care cause facial hair growth
Good question, but no, not in my experience. Peptides signal to cells to perform as they did when they were younger, not to do something new or different.
My poor mum is suffering from frontal fibrosing alopecia, do you think this could help? The problem with this condition is there is no cure as it causes scarring and actually kills the hair follicles
It would be worth checking with Calecim re this. I know they’ve had some success with alopecia but I’m less clear about different types.
Hi there, thank you so much for sharing this. We do not have any clinical data on Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia, but we are always expanding our clinical research. Without wanting to cause additional scarring to the scalp and hair follicles, you could try using the serum, without the derma stamp, this will not be as effective as there will be no micro-channels on the scalp. I would like to also state that our product is a cosmetic and is not a drug so we cannot claim to be able to treat this medical condition. I hope that you understand.
What is the cost per year?
We use less than the recommended amount to save on costs so I've covered that in the video.
Are you still using the Celecim serum?
I use the multi-action cream at night, yes. I love what it does for my skin.
I guess I'll have to get a wig. This is for the 1%
Is this suitable for women?
Yes, it is.
Is the facial serum safe to micro needled into your skin? Thank you :)
I think the recommendation is to apply it straight after microneedling - as with the hair serum.
Thank you for replying :)
Please do post updates. I'm tempted to buy this for my husband who has male balding. If it works for him, that'll be fantastic.
I think your face also looks a lot more youthful and smooth these last couple of months. It hasn't gone unnoticed, and I don't think it's just Adipeau. Your skin actually looks more taught. My mom is using skinmedica with excellent results. I've tried serucell with good results as well. I'm sorry to say that neither of these are any more affordable. 😭
I will certainly post further updates. Thank you for your kind words about the changes in my skin. They have been gradual and subtle so it's been a tricky one to describe to people, but I'm glad you've noticed a difference. It just feels nourished and, like you say, more youthful. I agree I don't think it's just the Adipeau because I only use that on my cheeks now.
Thanks for flagging the products you and your mom have tried. I really hope to be able to find something that delivers equivalent results for a fraction of the price! I'll keep searching : )
💓
After 3 months I haven’t noticed any difference 😢
I’m sorry to hear that.
Is this really an honest review if you're being paid by the company to promote it?
Hi. I'm not being paid to promote it - I'm discussing our experience which has led to very obvious results. It's an unsponsored review as all my reviews are. Here's my commercial policy which I take very seriously as a journalist. www.youtube.com/@TheHonestChannel/about
Honestly you cannot tell anything from this photos …
nteresting video. You mentioned products with 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗻𝘁-𝗱𝗲𝗿𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗱 growth factors. What are some of the ones you feel show promise, both for the skin and hair?
OneSkin do a plant-based peptide serum
which my mum has been using and feels it’s visibly improved her skin texture. There is some good evidence behind the new No7 range too. I’ll be posting an interview with the scientists behind it this weekend.
Ok Claire I’m going to order this for husband, hope his results are as good as mine with Adipeau. I just finished my 2nd bottle of Adipeau and wow. I highly recommended using 2 bottles of this before making your mind up if it works or not. Thanks🤍
Great to hear you’ve had good results with Adipeau. We’ve found the Calecim serum
to be really effective for hair regrowth. My dad’s results get better and better.
your dad had you at 18? how does that work?
My dad is 80. I’m 51
@@thehonestchannelHave you done any update video about your dad’s hair growth? I need to consider my dad’s partial baldness and see if he can benefit from such products, only if I hear positive updates from your dad’s trial. My dad is probably older than your dad, but he has good genes and looks even younger than me lol
