Figures

Licensing the figures

All 18 diagrams are already free to use commercially. This page is only about the one condition attached to that, and how to remove it.

What is free, and stays free

Every figure on this site may be used by anyone, anywhere, including in commercial products, provided a visible link points back to the page it came from. No account, no email, no permission needed — the embed code is under each figure on the figures page.

The credit is printed on the artwork too, not only asked for in these terms: every figure you download, SVG or PNG, carries a small line under the drawing giving the address of the figure's own page. The copies drawn inline on the guides do not, because there the address is the page you are already on. The printed line is there so the attribution survives the file being saved, re-uploaded and passed on to someone who never saw this site. Leaving it in place is the whole of the free licence.

That is not a trial tier and it will not be narrowed later. The figures exist to be used; the link back is what pays for them. Most people should stop reading here.

One thing, plus the paperwork that comes with it: the credit line comes off. We re-export the plates you have licensed from the same vector source with that line absent, and send you the files. That is what a clinic printing a consultation pack, an app shipping a diagram inside a screen, or a publisher setting a textbook page actually needs, and it is the only part that cannot be had for free.

  • Files with the credit line removed, SVG and PNG — the exported files themselves, not an email saying you may crop it.
  • No attribution required — in print, in software, in a slide deck, on packaging.
  • A countersigned PDF licence naming your organisation, for the file your legal team keeps. The name is written into the artwork's metadata too, so the grant travels with the file.
  • Any raster size you need, exported from the same vector source.
  • Perpetual. Bought once, for the life of whatever you put it in. There is no renewal and no per-print fee.

Price

One figureA single diagram, in one product or publication.$95
The whole setEvery figure on the site, including any added later, across everything you publish.$390
Print and high resolutionIncluded with either. The figures are vector, so they are already resolution-independent; a credit-free PNG at any size you name comes with the licence.included

One-time, per organisation, not per seat or per print run. If you are a student, a teacher, a non-profit clinic or a patient support group, take the credit line off yourself and do not email us about it — write and say so if you would rather be sure, and the answer is yes.

What is not for sale

A licence covers the drawing. It does not cover endorsement: you may not state or imply that this site recommends, reviews or is affiliated with your product, and you may not attach a claim to a figure that the figure's own cited sources do not support. Those two conditions survive the licence and are the reason there is a licence rather than a handshake.

We also do not license these for resale as stock artwork, which would be selling someone the right to sell the thing we give away.

How to buy one

Tell us three things: which figure or figures, the organisation's legal name, and where it will appear. You get back the credit-free files, the licence PDF and an invoice. There is no call, no demo and no sales process — this is a form of words and a payment.

Use the enquiry form, which posts to this site's own server and needs nothing of you but a reply address, or email hello@regrowprotocol.com if you would rather. The form is the surer of the two.

If you have already used a figure with the credit line and now need it without, that is the same email and there is nothing to undo. Nobody is in trouble.

What you are licensing

Diagrams drawn from the cited medical literature rather than traced from stock illustration — the Norwood and Ludwig scales, the growth cycle, follicle miniaturisation, the DHT pathway, scarring versus non-scarring loss, and the rest. Each carries the sources it was drawn from beneath it on the figures page, which is where to look before deciding whether it says what you need it to say.
