    Default Histogen at the ISHRS conference

    A colleague just sent me this. How is this not awesome.

    HSC caused a response in over 80% of subjects who grew 40-60% more hair. Pretty impressive.

    Current trials show 8% increase in hair density at 12 weeks decreasing to 6% at 24 weeks then rising to 30-40% at 48 weeks (average of all subjects)
    It also works in difficult to treat temples with increased density of 20-25%

    Hairs that were there at 1 year were still there at 2 years.

    The conference was told a treatment course of two lots of 50 injections 6 weeks apart would cost USD2000. They say you have about 50 injections a session.

    Thats a pretty a good price -- About the same as getting something like TRX2 or other fairly useless topicals for a year.

    40-60% is alot though -- If there is around 2.2 hairs per graft and if around 10k grafts would give a bald norwood 5/6 cosmetic coverage this apparently gives the equivalent of a 4000 - 6000 graft hair transplant. Thats pretty crazy if true.

    2000 USD every two years is pretty expensive.

    concerning the number of injections and dose - nobody can tell, because phase II/III is supposed to check that.

    Something like HSC, that bald people in the whole world will be depended on, so they can still hold their hair, shouldn't be expensive. because every bald guy will get the treatment every two years, an income from every bald guy in the world every two years will make histogen rich enough...
    that 2000 price will make histogen bankrupt.. lol

    anyway.. if that's the max amount of price that would be, it will drop eventually.

    If it lasts 2 years that's only $20 per week -- Not too bad.

    TAKE MY MONEY!

    $2,000 USD is a lot easier to save up every two years than $8,000-14,000 in a single shot for a solution with a good HT doctor or Dr. Gho.

    I'll gladly pay that price every two years to regrow and maintain what I get out of it. Hell, I got $2,000 ready for the procedure RIGHT NOW.

    Completely forgot its in $. Thats £1200 for me. Absolute bargain IMO if it works like they say it does. If it was available right now i would be willing to pay triple. Hope they give us some proper info soon

    I don't like to be a party pooper but let's not get too excited.

    I smell bullshit.

    Don't you think if they really achieved such great results it would be in the worldwide news? Or at least the whole case would be more loud. Such regrowth is not something that goes by silently, you know.

    Right now the only "source" we have is some Kiwi's "colleague" who might as well be lying. We have ZERO evidence.

    brother where does it says you need the injections every 2 years? maybe 100 injections would be sufficient enough for 5 years or even more than that? who knows yet?
