Replicel

[UK_]

can't find anywhere any confirmation.

the only confirmation we have is by the Replicel guys themselves:

if you inject millions of replicated human dscc into a patient's bald scalp - it grows practically NOTHING. Confirmed by Replicel!

No, what was confirmed was a that a SINGLE TREATMENT could beat both the efficacy AND SAFETY of Finasteride and Minoxidil combined after only 6 months.

THAT'S WHAT WAS CONFIRMED.

Your comments are stupid and damaging, until you can open a lab and create a treatment that beats in efficacy and safety both the two mainstream treatments for hair loss that have been around for over 20 years, please STFU.

They say it's years away, but Replicel are already heading into phase 2.

Watch the video again, inform yourself about how Replicels technology works in detail and stop spreading this "Replicel failed" nonsense. Otherwise you belong to hairsite, not here.
I can see that there's a lot, you understand in a wrong way. I've explained it a 100 times here and I'm not going to explain it again.

Replicel did not fail. Far from it.
If you really expected something like 50% regrwoth, you are literally insane.

They actually confirm Dr.Hoffmanns / Replicels thesis about dermal sheeth cup cells..

Here a little video about Yales hair research. They actually confirm Dr.Hoffmanns / Replicels thesis about dermal sheeth cup cells..

It's funny because it's true.

It works by removing enough dollars from your wallet that you are convinced of a 13% increase in vellus hairs when in front of a mirror.

Kind of like Propecia

SPLENDID!

so how does this work? is this some kind of a hair transplant, oral pill, cream?

Ive been thinking about this for a while too - why would a lesser dose result in greater efficacy? Well I realised that with cell therapy that is actually often the case! There is often a 'dose range' that the researchers have discovered was successful in animal models prior - a dose range that was more effective than significantly higher doses.

Now the very fact that Replicel increased their dose significantly helped their cause more than anything, because they proved safety, which dramatically reduces the time of clinical trials.

I dont think efficacy can be found through injecting huge amounts of cells, I believe smaller doses say 3 - 4 times a year will give you the results of 60 - 70% regrowth.

Interesting view. I sure hope you're right about the regrowth with smaller amount of cells. It does sound kind of logical.

Agreed with you. I was just curious... Well, we'll have to wait at least a year to see some new results. The thing I'm most "worried" about is they already injected millions of cells and good poor results (lets be honest - if they have some new great results - we would have known by now), now they'll be lowering the dose and hoping for better ones. Hm...

It does not matter why. And unless you're a mind reader with god like omnipresence we'll never know.

Personally I could not careless.

How come they didnt even recognize histogen as a competitor?
Only aderans...

Yeah, there was something new...we won't hear squat about phase 1 from them until the 24 month time point.

all that tells me is the results they wanted have not happened and are back at the drawing board.

Replicel still has promise to it, it's just a bit behind at this point and who knows when they'll get the right formula.
