Hey guys I just heard the great spencer finally convinced the replicel guys for a new interview before the trial results is announced.
Do you guys think it's a good idea he postpones that interview AFTER the results?
There's nothing to ask now since it's all speculation. We are not even sure if it works if it works or not.
After the results we can ask wether or not they think/saw that hair was restored in a completely bald scalp or things like that.
if he can do both that'd be great though.Comment

Yea mate, we should absolutely compile a list of questions before the interview. We can choose the best /most relevant ones to ask this way.
I encourage posters to start posting questions in this thread, we can compile later.Comment

or you could just post your questions on their facebook page... so far they've responded to almost every person.

So if they show good results in april i don't want to sound optimistic but i think it will mean we can be cured because we all how hard it is to grow hair on the temples dont we?
im very excited again but afraid at the same timeComment

it doesn't matter WHERE they inject those cells... if it can regrow hair on your vertex, I'm sure it can grow hair ANYWHERE. Why would it matter?
Anyways, if it regrows ~10% of hair and makes it DHT resistant then that's it - baldness is cured. Results should be compoundable, why wouldn't it?
We will know the future of hair loss by next monthComment

So yeah if it grows a decent amount in the temples, it can grow hair anywhere and baldness is cured.Comment

Because current treatments (e.g., Minoxidil, Finasteride) generally work for central (vertex) hair loss, but poorly (or not at all) in other areas. Thus the mechanism behind hair loss may be different on different parts of the scalp.Comment

yes man you may be right. But there is an old school theory of baldness being irreversible after some years due to the follicles being overwhelmingly exposed to DHT for so long and so aggressively that nothing can bring them back, this would be the temples. i hope that theory is dead wrong though and is what a lot of specialists agree on. i've seen this being discussed in the baldtruth show too i think.
Even if the follicles do "die", their stem cells remain in place no matter what. Remember this discovery:
^ basically you can reactivate those stem cells and make them grow hair once again. That's what Histogen has tried to do and from their Phase 1 results you can tell that they've been successful.
With Replicel, they don't even care about remaining stem cells or anything. With mice they were able to grow hair virtually ANYWHERE where they made an injection - vertex, temples, ears, whatever. If they can do the same with humans then baldness will be curedComment

Replicel Results in Late April / Spencer Interview before?
Guys, I just checked replicel's facebook page and they said late april as the release dates for their results.
Also I checked the video on youtube of the baldtruth episode 25 and spencer said you guys should let him know if you want the interview before the results.
He will also do it after the results.
So it's up to you guys...I for one would like the interview I have some friends who have spare change n are interested in the stock and would like more info.
Just post if you want the interview before or not. There's nothing to lose, since replicel will also give an interview right after the results.
You could also post your questions I guess.
Let spencer know what you think.

I'm down for an interview as well, any news is good news. So excited about Replicel, like it's been said before, this treatment should be compoundable. Regardless, i'm hoping for a 50% or more (: grrrr, why can't it be early April, why always late for everything :PComment

This was mentioned in another thread - but the only problem with brand new folliciles is - your hair pattern may become totally random and not the same as it once was. Two hairs right next to each other might be angled against each other heh.
This is probably not a terrible thing though, just getting hair back would be sufficient. But considering the pain staking process of a FUE process to put the hair back in so it flows nicely...Comment
