follicept - what's this?

b) follicept- real guys, great minds, good potential. We wait to see results. that is all.
Growth factors are definitely mediating hair loss and growth, and we will see treatments that work with these pathways, guaranteed.

Sdsurfin, I used to like your posts. I remember you had some interesting contributions in the Gardner thread, based on facts and actual research. But now it seems you've lost it and are just posting speculation like 99% of the people here. Or am I missing something ? Do you have even 1 article that shows IGF-1 increased follice count as much as Minox could ? If not, then why are you saying the above ? What happened to you ? Why the turn from facts to speculation ?

Swooping posted several scientific articles, all showing that it most likely won't work. Yet here you are, claiming otherwise, even GUARANTEEING growthfactors are the key. Why ?

Not dissing you, just genuinely interested.

I've been following this thread from the start and checking back every few days to see what progress has been made. I would like to know if there is a way to just read the responses Devon has posted rather than have to scroll through the pages of drivel that add nothing. If someone could let me know the correct way to filter that would be much appreciated. No offence intended to the many people who are also showing a genuine interest in this, as always it is a small minority who detract from a very interesting thread. Devon, best of luck when you have all the materials to start your test in the coming weeks.

Either way, I'm amazed that anyone with more than two firing synapses would hang around this forum long. The rabble of ridiculous blowhards and milquetoast pseudo-scientists that populates these internet venues is pretty overwhelming. Let the pros do their work boys. In the meantime go find something worthwhile to do with your lives while we all wait. In the hours you spend writing dumb shit on here you could have helped people, wooed women, made money, made art, whatever.

Easier said than done.

ONE growth factor cant do much in my opinion.
But hopefully it can help in thinning region, and maybe we still need anti-androgen as a combo.

If we are too enthousiastic, we could harm the very new reputation of Follicept (in hear growth domain... their reputation on transdermal technology for diabete is clearly done). Which is not our interest, cause we want to see the results of tests.

We have to understand that on this forum a lot of scammers came before with a charming language. So, if we want skeptics and moderation let Devon and Dr. Hsu demonstrate what their transdermal technology+IGF-1 can do on this forum, we have to be less enthousiasthic and just let people who master the subject speaking. We have to be as neutral as possible (skeptic and enthousiastic). I think that Arashi understood it too (his last posts are more neutral for the benefits of this topic).

PS: Please accept my apologizes Arashi, I understand your point of view. I saw some topics about a chinese Dr Liu and weird results, so i can really understand your distrust. However i personnally think that here we have a very different case. For the interest of all, we should wait and give Follicept a chance.

PS 2: I will speak in french (my apologizes) for my compatriots who are here and who wants to structure them if Follicept works on humans and we want to buy it first:

Les gars, il faudrait qu'on puisse s'organiser depuis ce site ou Doctissimo (de votre côté) histoire d'être dans les premiers à tester la chose. Noisette est un membre ancien du site et de Doctissimo. Je pense qu'on peut lui faire confiance. Donc, si jamais Follicept sort, il faudrait qu'on puisse s'organiser pour être dispo à l'heure H. Je pense par exemple à créer un petit site privé et fermé entre nous (avec les gars de doctissimo motivés) avec un chat privé, l'envoi d'une alerte mail dès la mise en place d'Indiegogo, un compte à rebours (pourquoi pas si il y a un vrai buzz) etc. Je peux mettre ça en place techniquement sans problème. On pourrait se placer sous la supervision de Noisette qui semble être un gars sûr et de confiance. Et derrière faire vérifier le tout par Devon afin que nous soyons dans les premiers lots. Parce que si ça marche les gars, ça fera tellement de bruit qu'on aura sûrement pas le temps d'être les premiers. Et si je suis venu ici c'est pour faire partie des premiers Donc organisons nous, au moins au niveau français.

N'hésitez pas à me MP, si vous voulez qu'on fasse ça ou autre chose. N'aimant pas trop doctissimo (ce site me rend hypocondriaque), je préfère pour l'instant rester ici. Par contre, je vous lis sur le topic Follicept de Docti et vous pouvez envisager pas mal de choses entre vous si jamais votre idée de site privé vous plait (on peut aussi organiser un achat groupé techniquement transparent sous le patronage de Devon). @ très vite.

And in the meantime lets clutter the thread with pointless, repetitive speculations.

To be fair most of this whole thread and most threads in the cutting edge forum are mostly worthless pointless comments. Except for the few responses from them or links to main articles most of it just endless speculation. With this stuff news is so infrequent what else do people do besides guess and speculate? Its months before you get real factual news or results

[stayhopeful]

Fact: whenever I'm in despair and feel like I'm losing the battle, I go to follicept's website and read their product description. Almost tearing up at the potential for mental health again

[just2hairs]

Devon, is it possible for Follicept to thicken up eyebrows?

And in the meantime lets clutter the thread with pointless, repetitive speculations.

Mistakes have been made in the past but we have to start clean at some point for the sake of this thread.

[Helix]

It's very weird the least. But I was hoping we could forget about that and make a new start and focus on our COMMON goal: get the proof we need to see if this is for real or not.

And in the meantime lets clutter the thread with pointless, repetitive speculations.

[serenemoon]

Devon, I know that it was mentioned that minoxidil should be discontinued in order to use Follicept. How does this translate to the usage of shampoos and such since they have chemicals too?

Also, if it is safe to use Follicept because the shampoo will be washed away afterwards, do you think that could mean the same for minoxidil where it could be continued, but washed off before follicept is applied? Just interested in what the team may have to say about this. Thanks!!

Sdsurfin brought the forum to the attention of Devon, so he could discuss their proprietary technology that will deliver igf1 to the follicle by transdermal means. All anybody can say at this point is that the science looks promising, and that it's definitely something that should be trialled on humans.

We are privileged to have access to such a patient and informative individual who is willing to share all the details of progress, every step of the way.

The majority of people understand this and appreciate this fact.

To the people who insist on making demands of this company, and are being abusive when there really is no call for it,
Please consider the fact that most of us just want to see this play out, and you are jeopardising that, either by pushing Devon to the point where he has had enough of taking insults and repeating himself, or by having the thread locked by moderator"

[Illusion]

Yeah you're right Arashi, my bad.

Let's stay on topic this time. No need for derails about legitimacy
