follicept - what's this?

Hello Devon may I ask why your team went for a gel instead ointment

This discussion has run its course. Anyone who would like to continue to receive updates and join in on a discussion concerning this potential treatment should go to the company's website.

I wish I just had a bald spot. I feel like having diffuse thinning leaves me no hope. Lord please let follicept work

I feel like the worst part of balding is bald sports... and receding hairline..... which ruin the framing of your face. I find most people with diffuse thinging look "fine"... mainly because they're face is still framed well-enough.

Terrible logic.

PRP is sold. It doesn't do anything.
Dr. Gho's HST method is sold; it too doesn't do anything.
I can name you a plethora of snake oil products are sold and don't work.

Follicept could turn out to be a giant flop and still sell, playing off the desperation of guys like you that just WANT to believe in a product.

Right. But the company's goal is not to make a couple of thousand. Their goal is to come up with something AMAZING, make a LOT of money and shoot that money over to running insulin patch trials which will cost them a huge amount (and also serve underserved regions of the world). They won't make enough to run FDA approved trials with a scam. Even if they rip off the most desperate of us, they won't be able to keep it up forever in order to make enough.

Thanks Devon, Best of luck to you and the team! I for one am glad that there is some hope!

Just wanted to pitch in and say a massive thank you to Devon and the other members of the team. Even if this comes to nothing, I personally have thoroughly enjoyed the way you've interacted with the community and I think you've conducted yourself very well. I'm from the UK so I won't be one of the first to enjoy this if it works, but I've just got back from an exam and seeing this video has brightened my day.

I scrambled through my headphones at work in a frantic manner just to watch this video discreetly. And my colleagues were wondering why I was smiling so widely at some guy rubbing gel all over his head.. hahaha! Can't wait to hear from you Devon!!

And btw, which is the best medium to get the most updated news from you guys?

Lmfao... I did the exact same thing.

A random study, just the first one in google

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8720982

IGF-I receptor was found to be widely expressed by the cell surface of the nevus cells.
the IGF-I receptor is expressed by all nevus cells, irrespective of their proliferative status.

we should ask to dr hso, he studied cancer so who better then him, i don't think it's dangerous but we should ask them, you know my concern is that they said with their vehicle they only need 6 unit of insulin instead of hundreads with injections for the same effect, i want to know if a mole covered with their vehicle can abosorb enough igf to proliferate even is it was "stable" before, i have hundreads of moleskin and most likely i have some of those covered by hairs in my scalp, and some others are big enough that i should let a doc check me, i never did beacuse they are "stable" and never changed after puberty, dunno with a sprint of igf if i should be concerned

Let us hope that Follicept's IGF-1 doses are so small that it doesn't really matter. And yes, we should ask Dr. Hsu about this

And since we probably won't see results, good or bad, for a few weeks or so, I have a different question for Devon?

How does the gel feel? I hope it's minty XD

[serenemoon]

Devon, are you applying 1 ppm or 10 ppm on your scalp? Thanks!!
