Scientists Regrow Tissue Killed During Heart Attack
Hello all, this article is in todays medical news-regenerative science is advancing at a PROGRESSIVE rate and
although this isnt about hair regeneration-its all RELATIVE.
“Scientists Regrow Tissue Killed During Heart Attack”
‘U.S. scientists have done what was once considered science fiction – regrown heart muscle to replace tissue that was killed off in a heart attack. It’s the latest advance in the field of regenerative medicine…If the stem cell therapy proves effective, he says, the treatment could be available to heart attack patients in about four years.’

Well, in the light of the latest findings that folicles never die - not even with completely bald people, we all in that sense have the potential to undergo regeneration.. but the problem of how to regenerate is not found. I'd like to see some new studies, if any exist, regarding not embrionic but stem cells extracted from hair loss patients themselves.. and what the safety rates are.. I also worry as stem cells are potentially related to cancer development.

Hey there Stressed'
Im sure you are well aware of Replicel's research. They will be providing their latest findings in April of this year.

I know, looking forward to hear the results, we can only hope for the best. But Replicel will make sense only if it turns out to be proven one time & safe treatment.. anything else simply wouldn't make much sense, especially with now hearing that if its proven to work, the estimated treatment price would be around 10,000$.

10K is only speculative
No one knows what a treatment cost will be at this point.
-
Well, one guy at Replicel thread claims that Replicel CEO mentioned that if the treatment works out, the predicted price could be around 10,000$..

Not even that can be verified
Stressed'
please keep in mind that your getting that information from some
"...guy at a Replicel thread.."
Dont stress yourself out even more by speculation based upon a person's claim at a thread.
It will all be OK

I am indeed stressing myself too much.. and stress ain't good for hair.

I think $5000 is a far price for everyone. They'll make good money and it will be reasonably affordable to the masses. I think this price makes sense because they want to cast their net far and wide and I think it would be more profitable at $5000 than $10000 due to the numbers that will go for it but I could be way off.

Only if its one time & permanent solution.
Otherwise even 5k is way too much.
