Vancouver Biotech Receives U.S. Patent for Hair Regeneration Technology!
Vancouver biotech RepliCel Life Sciences Inc. (OTCBB:REPCF)(CNSX:RP) has received a United States patent for its technology related to hair regeneration, the company announced this morning.
The company’s hair restoration procedure involves taking a small biopsy from the back of a patient’s scalp and preparing populations of “dermal sheath cup cells” that are then used to treat patients with pattern hair loss.
“The allowance of our first U.S. patent is a major achievement for our business as the United States represents the largest current market for hair restoration procedures, conservatively estimated at over $1.3 billion annually,” said David Hall, CEO of RepliCel. “The market for a permanent, non-invasive procedure like RepliCel’s is clearly significant.
“If you factor in the still-untouched market of hair loss in women, the total patients for RepliCel’s treatment would expand even further.”
The company already has patents in Australia and the European Union.
