    Histogen update?

    What phase is histogen in?

    When will we hear of new results?

    How have the results been so far?

      Encouraging, perhaps. But, not the miracle cure right now. I have seen better before/after pictures of rogaine/propecia users.

        LOL... No, just no..

        Show me one photo or link to where rogaine/propecia had even half those results within a 3month period.

        Not a miracle cure true, but your other comment was laughable.

            How did you even come to that conclusion from what I said?

              Unfortunately, we can't even bank on this procedure ever making it to the market either. Most likely it won't.

                Why?

                Stop the pessimism, you bring the whole forum down with it.

                    lmao yes, Rogaine and Propecia have had 50% growth after 3 months. It's very, very rare for propecia to give that much growth(most if not all the time it's just reinforcement or it just halts the process) and I dont believe rogaine has ever given more than 10-15% for even the best responders.

                    No need for pessimism either, we've yet to get an update saying they've had struggles or anything like replicel recently had.

                    It's still in question if slick bald spots can grow with this stuff, the october update may shed light on that.

                    Is it a miracle cure? Probably not, but it may be a solid solution for moderate hair loss sufferers and may help alot with stuff like density and vellus hairs.

                      Looking at the link that was posted, It seems that the histogen is a hair transplant product but I was wrong. They inject the histogen onto your scalp and promote fast hair growth. This is really promising IF it's true, but it seems really expensive AF, 20 injections? talk about some serious medication going on with that.

                        way too early to talk money with the think specificly. However one of the researchers did say it would probably cost in the range of something like getting a botox treatment.

                        My guess would be a couple hundred a year. Which is still very decent, especially if you could just maintain it on something like propecia or a future alternate treatment.

                        more or less depending on how much hair you actually need and therefore more injections.(under 500 for NW2-3, over for NW4++)

                          Probably a Replicel agent. Now Replicel... There's a product 15 years or more away from hitting the shelves.

                              Sorry I am posting it here I am unable to start a new thread:

                              I have found something REALLY INTERESTING

                              There is a company in India Claiming to provide STEM CELL HAIR MULTIPLICATION, check out there below link:



                              I just called them and they said me they can Extract only 500 follicles in Multiply them to 60000 Follicles in just 21 Days and inject them to my head!!

                              That sounds really amazing, not only that the cost is only 4000$.

                              It looks like WORTH GIVING IT A TRY, If it works then WE ARE CURED!!

                              Some one please start a new thread as i don't know the forum has blocked me from starting a new Thread!!
