Get on RU!! I don't know why more people aren't using it, sides are almost non-existent from it and its been proven to work.

What is RU?

Get on RU!! I don't know why more people aren't using it, sides are almost non-existent from it and its been proven to work.

The safety and efficacy of RU has not been adequately and appropriately established. There is no such thing as a medication that does not have side effects. Those who claim it has no side effects are being highly unethical. Those who are jumping on the RU bandwagon are being very foolish. Those who are not jumping on this RU bandwagon are being very smart.

Haven't been in the forums much, can somebody summarize the results? Is it great news or just meh?

It's wonderful news. Don't pay attention to the speculating whiners. The vast majority of them don't know what they are talking about. The news from Histogen is not just good news, it's great news. Especially for diffuse thinners.

I still feel Histogen's treatment will be best used if it is also followed by Replicel's treatment. Histogen's treatment will grow back cosmetically significant hair. Replicel's treatment will immunize the regrown cosmetically significant hair from the damaging effects of DHT. These two treatments used together will be a true cure for hereditary hair loss.

This, if Replicel can truly "immunize". Thats one of the two goals, but it hasn't been proven yet. It will take years for that honestly.

problem with replicel is they havent had an update in a while and dont plan on updating for a while.

I can see histogen being out in 2015-2016 in some places, replicel seems farther away.

which part? The numbers? Not so awesome if you know math.

Assuming you had left 20% of original density. Add 40% to that:

20% * 1.40% == 28%


The pictures are pathetic. Highlight me where you see the improvements because I must be blind and I see none.

Especially for diffuse thinners.

how so? If it can grow 30% of hair it can regrow (30*1000)% of hair, no? It can either turn George Costanza into Mick Jagger or not. There is no in between. This is not that kind of treatment.

no it won't - they were talking about BRAND NEW FOLLICLES. Immunizing existing follicles is a dream and virtually impossible. It's not even a problem since hair loss can be halted nowadays

Show me a treatment that doesn't give you side effects, holds on to the hair you have and pit you above baseline in 6 months. You cant. Just because it wont turn a NW7 to a Nw1 in the safety study, doesn't mean its a failure.

Agreed, this is apparently only phase one(of the actual solution, phase two of the device?) of the stuff and this is the results they're getting already. Means increased dosage could bring more and more growth.

There are alot of positive pathways this could go down and with a 80%+ response rate I dont see many negative things.

it's a small but significant start, absolutely zero reason to start crying.

When I enquired about HT, I got quotes from Ferundi and Hasson and wong for 9k.

Hey there Yeah' you were quoted 9K for how many grafts? H&W seems to be the Gold-standard in HTs these days.
