7th World Congress for Hair Research (2013)

[UK_]

So after all is said and done.. do we have any more information after the congress than we had before it?

Another wasted over-hyped bag of balls.

I have followed the conference through this forum, and i don't think it was a succes. the only thing what sounds great is topical finasteride.

But what can we actually expect from topical finasteride? and will this is ever be realized?

I wish I had a hair loss mentor when I was younger.

I wish there was any medication to combat this plague when I was young. But there was nothing.

Today young people are much more lucky than we were back at my time; at least they have some options now that will allow them to keep most of their hair for years.

I realise that, the major issue is that these medications have been around 20-25 years unchanged, with only the addition of off-label Avodart being a change in the status quo. Finasteride was old ten years ago.

I again agree with UK_. This was all empty hype. I think it's VERY obvious that the hair loss "industry" wants to keep its patients in the dark ages with finasteride, minoxidil, FUE and their "gold standard" FUT. All this extra theorizing and pontificating about new knowledge is just that, hot air, it's not leading to anything new you can get in a pharmacy, and hasn't for decades now.

Lucky in this sense - screwed in other ways.

Many wont be able to afford to go to university/college; get onto the property ladder etc etc. which may end up resulting in young people suffering from poverty.

I really don't understand why people are saying that the conference was a failure when we don't even know what was presented...?

How is it a failure? It was never meant to be anything 'successful', the whole point of it was for presentation purposes.

I agree. This forum is like an asylum and some of the posters on here are like women on the rag.

I was never expecting one of these companies to come out and say, 'bam, we cured hair loss'

We just need to be patient and hope new, more innovative ways of treating hair loss are released. The fact that companies and individuals are working towards this is a good sign.

Exactly garethbale! There are miserable members that just want to say 'I told you so' when we know absolutely nothing about what was presented!!! WTF is wrong with you people??

No offense to any members on here, because I hate this shit as much as all of you do.

But seriously get off these forums, and live your life. You will get more done, and before you know it weeks will pass.

As it stands they had something to present - so no news is good news given we know about Histogens results.

I agree yeahyeahyeah, I gave this advice on the show but even I find myself lingering around for some announcement and as a consequence I find myself feeling much more miserable. Guys, set a website blocker on your internet browser and block this forum, seriously. Give it 2-3 weeks and don't get your hopes up for any major news, we will likely get updates from Histogen about phase II and possibly from Replicell and Aderans, until then as yeahyeahyeah says try to live your lives.

Peace, BB.

i don't like the idea of this congress being some sort of beacon early in the year. we get bashed by irrationally optimistic people for being realistic and we are ALWAYS right. next year let's just not set it up like that.
