no, the photo says they added another tattoo further into the trial.

I'm just saying that its definitely a picture of the same person.

this might also help you identify new hairs, but, there doesn't seem to be many. this could be a big deal if the hairs started to get bigger, but they dont seem like much currently... and should be thicker by now I would think.





can someone lay the negative of the second photo on top of the first photo and match the tattoos?

Those results are pathetic.
I don't know if I should laugh or cry when looking at them.

I think if that person's hair grew out you would hardly even notice that section was balding.

That said, it's definitely the same area and there is definitely a substantial increase in vellus hairs. All depends on whether those hairs become terminal.

But if their best result is growing small amounts of hair on an already basically full-coverage scalp, they have problems. If those new hairs don't become terminal at 12 months, they have real problems.

I think what people need to remember is that growing hair takes a long time. in the second picture there seems to be an increase in thin hairs, which will thicken (hopefully) over time. if you think when a baby is born, they have really thin wispy hair and this soon thickens in 18 - 24 months....we just have to be patient.

I think a lot of people are comparing to Histogen which showed a cosmetic difference in only 3 months. This is a totally different approach than histogen, and we just have to have patience.

Well said JPM, some folk want a pic of an afro created from a small dose of Replicel, on a Norwood 5 before they truly believe the science.

I don't know why people expected to see much regrowth at 6 months. All treatments at the moment usually don't show any cosmetic difference at 6 months (fin, minox etc) so why would people assume replicel would have a cosmetic difference at 6 months.

I agree, I see alot more new thin hairs which could turn terminal in 12 months.

I agree with positive comments... it's just too early to give opinions atm...

Right you are. People are impatient, myself included but you hit the nail on the head. It took years to loose, it may take years to get it back. Lets hope they find a way to speed up the process. I'm already bald, i'm getting older and I can't take it anymore....

Yes exactly, nobody here can outright deny that the new follicles go into a resting phase before entering anagen, we all know how Finasteride works... dont we?... naysayers?
