Good News -- I just called Aderans Research Institute in Atlanta

I haven't been following CB. But this chemical is currently not available on the market ? It's patented by Cosmo and thus we'll have to wait till its FDA approved ?

No, you'll get it the same way you would with RU. Black market, so to speak.

I completely agree. Also, this whole ordeal may be tackled from a surgical perspective, if we can get 50% donor regeneration it's only a matter of time before we get that up to 100% and I see that being not far away. Not to mention we have follica who could have a treatment out whenever..they have been silent, but they are obviously on to something big.

That being said I sure wish HSC and CB were out on the market today, I'd get a hairtransplant and hairloss would be a thing of the past for me.

Yeah HT is a decent option as well! Dr Wesley's scarless FUE is also very interesting...

I would personally wait till late 2015 to have another look @ the MPB forecast before going ahead with a hair transplant though.

By 2015, we should have a clear picture of:

• CB-03-01 release date
  
• Replicel's efficacy
  
• Follica's trial results
  
• Histogen's release date
  
• Tsuji lab's progress
  
• Dr Wesley's Scarless FUE launch

What about places like India? I'm sure they could release there right away...I'm sure there are places far less strict than Singapore..

Not too sure about India. Dr Nigam would be the best person to ask that question from! Don't forget that a lot of their regulatory systems were based on Britain so it may not be as easy as we think!

Well if he's doing what he's saying he's doing on here than I'm sure histogen would be able to release...it seems Dr. Nigams is using some of the same growth factors as histogen...

Also, we will know basically everything about Dr. Wesley's technique this October when he presents at the hair conference...assuming he's still doing that, I know he is running another trail to figure out the regeneration aspect.

[hellouser]

Oh how I wish we had more evidence of Dr. Nigams work being credible... I'd go in a heartbeat to be socially accepted.

No way!!!!! He's trying the regeneration theory? What a champion man

Hell check out my post in the Gho section, there are some things to consider....I am holding off on my treatment with Gho now until after new years when we know what pilofocus and nigam have to offer...as well as GC's documented case on HST..then we will know the actual donor regeneration figure from Gho..

I don't know if you have paid attention to the thread on here regarding it...or if you listened to the show when spencer talked about it...but right now there is anecdotal evidence showing a substantial amount of regrowth in the clinic trails he has had..

The scarless technique was supposed to be released to the public the end of this year, but because of the regeneration he was seeing in patients...he has decided to run another trial the end of this year to see what the regeneration number could consistently be and if they can continuously do this with every patient..


that is what I have gathered from everything I have read on it...but from what spencer has seen presented to him he said this could be a "game changer"

When would we be able to get pilofocus with regeneration? Any idea how much it'd cost?

[FearTheLoss]

We need to wait and see if this last trial confirms the regeneration continuously at a good number...but then it should be less than a year until it's out...mid 2014.

I have no idea of the cost though.

Mid 2014? That fast? Wow... I might hold off on the idea of a Gho procedure as well. Something tells me you and I both need about 3-4,000 grafts to be back to a NW1 with full density?

Exactly, that's why I canceled the procedure I had planned..I want to wait and see how things play out with this and Nigam...

and I need about 2500 grafts to be nw1 and good density. I have blonde hair and fair skin so I don't actually need a lot of grafts for it to look dense.

but god would I love to have my hairline done by Dr. Rahal...he's an artist

They're replaying the show here if anyone wants to hear the Aderans news for themselves:

(there's a brief moment during the broadcast where the sound doesn't work btw)

There's a part of me that hopes you heard something wrong or took something out of context...

*fingers desperately crossed*

Definitely not the case unfortunately
