lets vote who thinks replicel will be available in 2018 and why?

Wasn't aderans injecting dermal papilla into scalps?

[dutchguyhanging]

this is seriously funno tho. the only people that make posts like these saying its naive to think a cure is going to take less than a decade or two are the ones praying and hoping to god at night that there'll be a cure ASAP. "1 month"?

get over yourself.

yes if someone could find the cure by accident then it could be a month, excluding patent...etc. in that situation we all see the smoke coming out first... Anyways in pharma we plan long terms projects in the pipeline so 5 year time is long term and predictable....

[ShookOnes]

this is seriously funny tho. Companies/pharma have short and long term plans. Long term is of 5 year period. If someone tells 20+ years or indicate such timeline 1-it is funny because we dont work that way 2- no one is investing in 20+ years. In other words hairloss cure is not in 5 year agenda but it doesnt mean that there are no developments/investments happening. Let me remind you all that most of the time cures find by accident. This is ust so naive to give a timeline about it. it could take another 100years or 1 month...

To be fair, DP cells have never been injected into human scalp, so we don't really know if they'll fail or not doing so in their current state.

LOL so doctor ohyama jumped ship for cancer. Seems like he knows something we don't

He did? What a pity. Where did you read that?

Where did you read doctor ohyama is working on cancer now?

Yes by 20+ years I was indeed talking about a magic surgery to halt baldness. Realistically could even be up to 40 years. Stem cell research is huge yes, but not enough resources to bring a cure within a reasonable time especially if we're including delays.

People need to stop being delusional and face the fact that as of 2015, if youre balding you idiots should take fin and decide to drop it if you don't like it. Lol. I'm a diffuser and I would have been a norwood 6 at 21 like my shit given genetics if not for fin regrowing back a near bald crown from 18 to 19 years old. And no, my dick is still going strong.

And a final parting gift to my rant:
http://botanicalcraft.com/. This shit works. You're welcome. Try it. What else do you have to lose besides more hair and looks?

Dermal sheath cup cells work as well as dermal papilla cells in regrowing hair however they have the same issue when in culture loose their ability to work. If replicel has solved this issue it will work.

Delays are almost guaranteed... I want to know the REAL reason why they keep delaying things. Dont they have the protocol figured out?

Probably they run out of money..

Hellouser will you be going to miami?

So as a hypothetical 'IF', let's say the trials prove a success and MPB effectively cured by stem-cell tech, how much would the treatment cost and how many injections would it take? Would you need stem cells injected into every follicle or would they just swim around to the rest of scalp from the entry point?

It seems like the treatment would be mega-expensive, but firstly I heard (albeit a rumour) that actually the most expensive part of providing stem cell treatments is the storage, which actually only costs a few hundred dollars. Of course any company can ramp the price up and charge what they want, but looking at this proprietary device that replicel is having developed for them, it's just matter of time before the hardware opens up to the rest of the world so the prices could get competitive very quickly. MPB isn't gonna disappear from the gene pool anytime soon, so keeping the tech affordable is definitely a better financial plan long-term than alienating a huge potential market by making the procedure cost tens of thousands of dollars.
