wtf is going with HISTOGEN phase 2b?

[Tenma]

If this Cole guy is getting 50% regen, he solved the donor problem for 90% of cases and should be all over the news by now.

So, my question is: were are the pics ilustrating the espectacular paradigm shifting advance in hair restoration this Dr. has been able to achieved?

At least Wesley is waiting for his trials to finish before speaking about percents.

35YrsAfter, could you answer my previous question please.

Respect is a two-way street.

No comment.

That's fine, I read it as him meaning that scarring will be a thing of the past. Also his use of '"There are enough men scarred by bad hair transplant surgery.." had me thinking of the double meaning of 'scarred' (not the literal meaning) which also looks like 'scared' suggesting that men back away from FUE/FUT surgeries.

Doesn't matter, if he's going to get paid by Dr. Cole to solicit on BTT, he shouldn't be coming off as an ass in the process.

Hell, you did misunderstand him. I realize why everyone's tensions are high as this disease can be quite frustrating, but I have no doubts that doctor Cole is one of the best in his field and that is because of how much he cares about his patients. He offers prp acell as a stand alone treatment at the price it costs him to do it, because it isn't completely proven. He is one of few surgeons in the USA that are trying to improve the field instead of just raking in money and performing mediocre results.

Then explain to me how you interpreted my statement:
"There are enough men scarred by bad hair transplant surgery performed by butchers over the years to keep Dr. Cole busy well into retirement. I doubt Histogen or any other injectable will make scars, plugs and wrong hair angles magically go away. BTW. Dr. Cole doesn't perform FUT. Dr. Cole only performs FUE."

How did you read from the above quoted post, that I even implied, injections cause scarring?

34YrsAfter, could you give a little more information on Dr. Cole's claims? Is he planning on presenting evidence that he is, in fact, getting regeneration at the numbers he says he is? Case studies?

Also, if the average patient is getting 50% regeneration, why is he still so cautious treating younger patients? with 50% regeneration, he could give just about everyone at least decent results wtih full coverage.

English is actually my THIRD language and I'm quite confident your comprehension of it is inferior to mine. If you're going to try and ridicule me with a thinly veiled insult, you may want to do it using an account that doesn't represent Dr. Cole's business clinic on a public forum.

I've got diabetic friends whom have been injecting all their life. I've never seen a single scar on them.

PRP is not a regenerative product.

So then logically Dr. Cole doesn't get regeneration and NW6 - NW1 has never happened unless a patient's donor hair had a large area of a density of 150 grafts per sq. centimetre.

I didn't mean you, I meant Dr. Cole. He's pretty much out of a job if an injectable cure happens.

We need innovation like that, not stagnant FUT dragons afraid of losing their earnings.

I wasn't asking about Histogen, I was asking about your claims about regeneration.

Can you tell us if Dr. Cole has a NW6 to NW1 case based on regeneration with PRP or not?

PRP is not a regenerative product.

[35YrsAfter]

Dr. Cole has made plenty of cash in his lifetime off of hair loss sufferers. Time for a new market to emerge. I really have no sympathies for businessmen; because thats why they ultimately are. They're in it for the money.

If you worked here and saw the number of pro-bono surgeries Dr. Cole performs on men who have been screwed up by other doctors and can't afford surgery, it might just change your cynical tone.
