I agree. After the disappointment following Replicel's publication of its first trial results, it seems like a lot of the energy and enthusiasm behind Replicel's approach died down. I've been wondering though if any of the trial participants experienced continued improvement and possibly more significant results at the 9-month or 12-month mark.

IMHO, they're done.

Even if it comes to market it wont be effective on us, CEO clearly said it won't work on everyone.

In one month, the subjects of this first trial should complete 12 months after the first injection. We should try to get some information about the results.

IMO... throw magic at this shit it'll always be "5 years away".

...and sorry, when i said phase ll, i of course meant phase llb!

[iHope]

Replicel are prepping for phase ll trials which is, as far as i gather, entirely in regards to dosage.

The outcome of this little number, may turn out to be a miracle maker!

Yeah, and this study should be ONLY relevant one! Let's hope for the best... or maybe to find out another hair health function.

I guess we'll see. Although I'm not hoping too much....

Directly creating a new follicile that is immune or "immunizing" existing will directly lead to normal growth cycles. It won't have to "build up to" anything. It will just be.

if that is even happening(brand new follicles)....

Right you are. People are impatient, myself included but you hit the nail on the head. It took years to loose, it may take years to get it back. Lets hope they find a way to speed up the process. I'm already bald, i'm getting older and I can't take it anymore....

The reason Finasteride and Minoxidil can take as long as they do is because they have to work up to their potential. Hence the reason you lose what you gained when you stop taking them.

Yes exactly, nobody here can outright deny that the new follicles go into a resting phase before entering anagen, we all know how Finasteride works... dont we?... naysayers?

I don't know why people expected to see much regrowth at 6 months. All treatments at the moment usually don't show any cosmetic difference at 6 months (fin, minox etc) so why would people assume replicel would have a cosmetic difference at 6 months.

I agree with positive comments... it's just too early to give opinions atm...

I agree, I see alot more new thin hairs which could turn terminal in 12 months.
