follicept - what's this?

Well, f***

[Chromeo]

I certainly agree we need a topic for Devon alone to post results and information. I'm tired of sifting through the endless BS, baseless accusations and in-fighting from the mentally ill, paranoid hair-loss sufferers on here. This isn't about you and how good you are at spotting a scam or whatever the hell it is you're looking for credit for.

Quit the pathetic attention-seeking and let the guy tell us what he's got. I really couldn't care less whether you think it's a scam or not. Your opinions mean nothing. The results will give us all the information we need.

Histogen has IGF-1 and Histogen isn't growing a lot of hair

Well, f***

It is only one time injection with histogen though...not 12 doses in one month. Fingers crossed that the multiple doses help!!!

Very good point.

But do keep in mind that even though Follicept is applied a lot more often than Histogen, Follicept is just one growth factor whereas Histogen is many growth factors. Doesn't that mean that in order for Follicept to grow a good amount of hair IGF-1 would have to be THE KEY growth factor in hair loss, and if that were the case doesn't it seems like we would have been hearing a lot more about IGF-1 than we have heard about it over the years?

cough arashi cough swooping

Thanks for the compliment, we are both Dutch though. Thanks anyway, appreciate it.

I would not compare Arishi's arguments to Swoopings. Swoopings positions are well thought out and his concerns are more logical and scientific.

For example, Swooping says that Histogen has IGF-1 and Histogen isn't growing a lot of hair. Are you saying that this argument by Swooping isn't sound? I think it's sound. Histogen is not growing a ton of hair and they are injecting IGF-1, along with a lot of other growth factors and proteins.

Then Arishi will come along and say, Follicept is an intentional scam and the company is a big fraud because they won't have the bald truth posters be the test subjects. And the ONLY possible reason for the company not to let the bald truth posters be the test subjects is so that the company can pull a scam. There is no other possible reason. These kinds of statements are ludicrous. Arishi is not giving the company the chance to make the right decision or the wrong decision. First you prove efficacy or otherwise then you see what the company does. It's too early to call the company a scam.

So can swooping consider this post as a compliment ? Just trying to figure out your post. Thanks jarjar!

The fact that you and Swooping even attempt to argue that Follicept and Histogen are equatable, simply based on the fact that they share ONE similar ingredient is quite alarming, particularly considering the intelligence Swooping portrays himself to have. You cannot derive any logical conclusion whatsoever based on the fact that two products share a similar ingredient. Just because pizza is not healthy for me, does that mean tomatoes are not healthy either? truly unbelievable

Stayhopeful, It's not like Follicept shares one ingredient with Histogen and then Follicept also has other ingredients. That one ingredient that Follicept share with Histogen is the ONLY ingredient that Follicept has.

[snowie]

is there a date on the release of follicept, or will we soon get one ? ( sorry for my bad english )

[TravisB]

Why does this thread have 180 pages?

Is there any proof that it might work on humans, other than the rat pictures?

This is a serious question, I don't want to read through 180 pages :P

If there is something significant, please direct me to the page, thanks.

Guys i think we should focus on the rat picture for once, if we compare the 10ppm and the minox one they are similar in term of cosmetic results, let's pretend it work exactly the same in human, we have the same minox regrowth, slightly better or worse.
We know two fact, when minox works WELL, give us 2-3 years of hairs back, which is basically a 1.5 nw back, if it doesn't work well people continue to use it being afraid of a minox shedding, so it's a deal with the devil but without a 100% success rate. So even if slightly worse people should use follicept, at least they will cure themself only few days in a year.
At the same time we know we can use propecia, and that for sure will fight the hairloss cutting the dht, the real question now is why in their theory they think cutting the dht is not necessary anymore? They think the only reason why dht kills the follicle is the igf-1 decrease or what? I wonder if a combo propecia+follicept is more effective, pretending a working follicept next month
