    Wrong again; not an investor, a partner that will be willing to give them money and infrastructure in exchange of royalties. It was meant to be that way all along and it is meant to be that way for most of these companies. It's called a business plan. They already had early stage investors.

    Regarding Temporal recession
    Quote:

    Further, subjects receiving HSC in the temporal recession, which is known to be more difficult to treat than other areas of hair loss, saw marked improvement in terminal hair count, with a mean increase 25.2% at the 24 week time point.

    25.2% increase is perfect..

    It's the first PROVEN product to regrow hair on temples..

    Was it known that effects would diminish so quickly and so steeply ? I wasn't aware for one and am really not interested in a product which I'd have to visit a clinic for twice a year and which only gives me marginal results. Maybe others are interested, like you said, same thing goes for Botox and most injectable fillers (multiple injections/visits per year). But this really isn't what I'm looking for. I'm going to have to scratch Histogen from my personal list of 'possible next gen treatments'. Again, maybe others feel otherwise, but this is just my opinion.

    Hehe, that's just terminology. They need someone to bring them money to carry on with their research, I don't care how you call it.

    Look at the hair count. Only about 2% increase in temples after 24 weeks.

    Just look at the chart under 'temporal recession region' in the PDF Desmond posted. You're talking baout 'terminal density'. It seems to me that this means the terminal hairs just got 25% thicker. Which might give a somewhat noticable effect. But only if you have hair on your temples to begin with, since temple hair count only increased with 2% after 24 months, in that same chart.

    No this is not like debating if the glass is half full or half empty.

    If they were looking for an investor they'd be in trouble, and that's how you want to make it look. But guess what: "Investor" Not Equal "Partner".

    So they are not in trouble and everything is proceeding according to plan. This is the point here, so stop spreading unfunded negative rumors because you are sad for your own reasons.

    I'm not 'sad', but just tremendously disappointed by these results. And again, I don't really care how you call it, investor, partner or whatever. What I'm saying is that it's going to be very difficult for them to find one and that in MY OPINION chances of this product ever reaching the market greatly dimmed after these results.
