$20,000 is £12,330 in UK sterling.

The average UK citizen earns pre-tax approx £28,000 ($45,000).

Even if it was $100,000 most people here who really wanted the treatment would be able to afford it.

Are you asking how much they do spend or how much they have to spend? I lived on $6,000 last year in a county where the median income is $42,000. I don't make that, but if I did, it wouldn't cost me anymore to live. I could save $35,000 easily.

Most anyone making decent money could do the same thing. At least here in America. Any excuse you hear is BS.

Yes most likely.

Depends on where in the UK you live, and how you live, but on average id say around £7,000 per year.

how did this thread digress so fast?


Scorpion... if you are smart enough to get a degree you're smart enough to use google to answer these questions... I mean who refers to their masters degree as a masters degree? WHAT KIND? a master degree in jerking off isn't going to help much.

I think it's fair to say anything over £10k is a considerable amount of money for most people, which would require life style changes and choices if they decided to loan that amount of money on top of other large expenses such as their home and car.

For most people here I'd imagine you are willing to sacrifice a lot for your hair. That's why you're on the forums. You're part of the relatively small percentage who actively pursue a solution to your hair loss.

Many millions of people simply don't do anything about hair loss because there is no cure, no where near a cure. Current treatments are a) expense b) carry side effects and c) Give substandard, unreliable and unimpressive results.

Replicel could be the most affordable treatment available, which also gives the best results. Bringing all the people not pursuing a treatment into the market and boy they will make a hell of a lot of money.

Pricing this treatment at 50% plus of a persons yearly wage is no good for any one, including Replicel.

But we'll see...
