The bigger question remains: when!?

And the biggest: how long will it last?!

I think the biggest question is whether it's compoundable. I wouldn't mind needing repeat treatments if enough of them would get my crown back to full thickness.

Well the members of the first trial experienced hair growth beyond the 2 year point! And that was with just a single dose of their lowest strength compound! This is a treatment designed to last a lifetime!

Good point, that and how long it lasts. Even if its compoundable if you have to redo it every 5 years...at some point you gotta realize you are gonna need the money to retire, unless you're well off.

If youre worried about a relatively insignificant procedure like this potentially once every 5 years affecting your retirement plan, perhaps you don't have a good retirement plan to begin with.

These injections aren't going to break the bank.

And more importantly, as time goes on better treatments are likely to come out with histogen getting cheaper.

When histogen is released , it will be a game changer, companies will look to build upon it, much like when CDs replaced cassettes etc.

Well we don't know that - the cost will be whatever the market can bear, and if a few rich people are willing to pay a lot of money to keep their hair, then those not quite so well off may have to think twice before making the investment.
