Aderans is a potential solution as well and according to their press release in 2010 IIRC, their target date for a consumer product is early 2014.

Their results have been impressive as well, you'll need to look through the Aderans thread for all the details, theres a lot to go over.

Consider also the fact that not only do they have a working solution (I've spoken to reps over the phone and their test patients have been successful with 'great' results in the crown area) they've also invested heavily into acquiring Hair Club and Bosley. That alone should tell you; theyre not dicking around as theyre prepping their product and getting ready to roll it out through these channels.

Further, if the 2014 deadline isnt met, its going to piss off their investors. Its a business first and foremost, so theyre priority is to make CASH and that deadline is going to affect it as they would basically become the first on the market and get a jump start on the market dominance.

The future looks good!

He stated on his website that he is developing a procedure to inject hair stem cells to improve the density of transplants - that's what we need - traditional transplants combined with injections of stem cells to give completely natural density.

Do you think a current Gho procedure benefit from a Histogen injection in the future or would Histogen be needed first then Gho, or both at once.... would it even matter?

Just asking as I'm figuring out what the options are NOW and how they would affect future options once available.

I also believe in Aderans, but what does "reps" mean and are anyone allowed to say how the patients are?

Both at once would be incredible - imagine the graft survival rate, imagine grafts growing more hairs per follicular unit, definitely combined would be a dream, but there's heaps of hurdles to cross before that will be established as a treatment.
