At least he maintained.

And the problem with propecia:

- limp dick
- reflex hyperandrogenicity
- brain fog.

etc etc

As long as HSC maintains, we are all happy, the above negates any positive effects that finasteride has tbh.

lol that's not going to make good sales... How are you going to market that? Make a thousand injections for thousands of $$$ every year to maintain a semi-bald head of hair? No woman is interested in just maintaining. This is just pathetic

Notice the lighter color of the exposed scalp in the photo on the bottom left. If the highlight tones in the image were adjusted down to more closely match the image on the right, and the subject's hair were styled back beginning in the farthest frontal area of hair, I doubt there would be much, if any difference at all between the two bottom photos. The guy on top's hair is down to the nub in the left photo. Hair length makes a huge difference in comparing before and afters.

Find someone who has applied minox a grand total of twice to an area of scalp 0.3 square inches with better growth than Histogen, and then I'll admit you have a point. Until then, cut the whole broken record act.

I think you are underestimating Histogen. Based on the results, I certainly understand your point of view. But I believe by the time it hits the market it will produce good results. The question is, how long will these results last? Will injections lose effectiveness over time? I think the answer to the second question is yes. You need to address DHT via ant-androgen, and you need to secrease PDG2.

forever, assuming you get castrated right after HSC treatment. No, but seriously holding in existing hair is so much easier than regrowing hair.

great, no one really cares. For most people it take decades before it becomes even "visible" hair loss.

Low norwoods would. They can get this and a HT. And thats better than taking a pill everyday which affects your health...I think you will need to get injections done after a couple of years. It isnt yearly.

Sign me up if thats the case for a lower norwood like myself! A simple hairline fix with Gho or Rahal and the rest done by Histogen. Confidence restored.
