Histogen in the hair congress

[efedrez]

Hopefully this means Histogen is not dead and they are actually in business and just had been quiet but working

here is the link

We need to get someone to this congress, it looks like a lot of good information will be share!

Efedrez, that's an excellent info! I didn't see them at this stem cell meeting in Mesa, where they were last year, so I was sure that Histogen won't be present at the hair congress. They have already finished phase 2, right? So if they have new partner and better financial situation, their commercialisation in Japan may be closer than we think.

This is a good news man ! Looks like they are going to say "guys we got the cure, congrats ! We have been silent so no one can give us an evil eye and miss up our product". or they want to say "ladies and gentlemen, sorry we could not make it "

@baldybald: lol, if second option was the real one, they wouldn't go to the congress to announce their failure in public ;P

I also doubt they will go to such a public congress to announce failure.

Researcher typically have to spend money to present in this events so maybe I'm being too optimistic but there is no reason to go there unless you have something interesting to say (even if its is "we are still alive")

[baldybald]

Hahaha I know I was sarcastic. Come on guys )

[efedrez]

ok ok fine .

I hope there was a way to find out what histogen and others will say without having to wait a long time and read it from some reporter with little knowledge on the topic

After 2 threads for founding Desmond or Hellouser were closed I don't know what else we can do to get someone there

There's a relatively recent presentation by Histogen (some woman, can't remember her name) which shows pictures of someone with significant regrowth from a previously ruined hairline. Based on that I don't know why people have been saying it's dead all these months. That picture was as impressive as anything I've seen, if I'm remembering it right (it has been months if not a full year since I saw it).

@allTheGoodNamesAreTaken: that's interesting, could you post a link?
Histogen technology is promissing, but the main problem with it is that the new hair are also susceptible to the miniaturization. If Replicel protocol is really able to hold the progression of hair loss, in theory it would be ideal pair with Histogen.

Great news, thank you for informing us

Memories a bit hazy with this treatment, is this the one that suppose to cause a chain reaction and migrates to cause new/other follicle growth?

[Hairmore]

Yes, it is a treatment that is is injected to the scalp and and consist of some mixture of proteins that have the ability to rejuvenate miniaturized hair shafts and even induce new follicle formation. Would be quite impressive if this would work and the last time I heard about some updates was a few years ago...

There's a video link at the bottom of the previous page to a presentation by a histogen representative, which shows a photo of some impressive results 19 weeks later. If that photo hasn't involved any trickery/deception then what they've got really works, even if it might need more research to get that result consistently. Clearly they've done something right though if that picture is genuine. I don't know why people are regularly repeating that Histogen is dead.

Wow this looks impressive. I really hope one of these more or less promising treatments which are all being developed at the moment will succeed. I have the feeling that actually more is going on right now than just a few years ago.
