This treatment is for male pattern baldness, which is hereditary. The most common form of hair loss is male pattern baldness. You guys are freaking out because of the misunderstanding of another poster.

[iamanidiot]

if you are bald yet (nw4 or higher) due to hereditary conditions (aga) you cannot do this treatment... old news i think... we already known that the stem cell into follicles cannot live forever after DHT started to kill the hair follicles

[runrunrun]

What the ****..hereditary condition means 'male pattened baldness'??

[runrunrun]

I know 'hereditary baldness = MPB = andogenetic alopecia"
Am I wrong?? I cannot understand your post..

In their twitter feed they say they are starting trials this year, they also ssy they have some 'exciting news' about rch-01, I wonder what it could be

is here a japanese speaking guy, pls clear this question for us

[Ginko]

I'm not totally fluent but have lived in Japan for over 20 years. I listened to the Japanese and he used the word senten-teki which is closer to congenital (ie from birth) than hereditary(iden-teki)

I understand the video as meaning if you have naturally thin hair they cant suddenly give you more hair (follicles) but if you have went bald through AGA then any existing hair follicles can be rejuvenated.

I'm very hopeful about this. One thing about the Japanese they are very diligent and serious about their work once they get started. Alas too late for me but I have kids.

Assuming the hair loss is from AGA, are they saying it will only maintain the hair on your head? Or it will regrow lost hair as well?

I'll clear this up for everyone, I'm not sure why it's even being debated..

Replicel aims for a cure from a preventative standpoint, meaning, you get one set of injections and the treatment is finished and you never lose hair again..there will be some low percentage of growth with it, but don't expect people to be jumping numerous norwoods..

They plan to continue their research in the future for a cure in the sense of reversing AGA.

thank you very much!

this makes sense

[GSD]

why are you so sure? the next trial is the dose raging study........ after this study we will be able to say such information not before.... dont spread this kind of bro science ....
you may be right, but where is your evidence?
i think the science from team tokio (from part II documentary) are for creating new follicles for people who have naturally thin hair.. or are bald due accidents or so...

Exactly, the hair follicle which have started to miniaturize the month before you'll do the treatment probabily could be repaired... but if you have been bald for 10 or 20 years probably the hair follicle is dead and could not be repaired by replicel
