    Default Getting hands on what's in HSC?

    probably a stupid question, but is it possible to actually buy the stuff that is in HSC(growth factors, proteins and other synergistic bioproducts) and use it? or not? would the cost be crazy?

    This stuff works, or at least seems too, but this waiting is pretty damn annoying!

    It's possible brah! It's basically just follistatin, VEGF and KGF.

    Interesting doe. Anyone trialing currently?

    @rdawg, not a stupid question, there are no stupid questions.

    Wnt7 too right?

    how would one get these things?

    is anyone using this stuff themselves?

    what kind of vehicle would you have to use?

    what's the cost?

    EDIT: Quick search around it seems noone has actually tried this stuff out for themselves even though it is available, I see alot of talk about it but noone mentioning actually going through with the experiments, interesting...

    dude I don't have a degree in biochem but I would imagine it's not too easy to replicate what Histogen does in a garage

    No idea, that's why i've asked, but I really can't find much from searching around, but there are some people on here that are fairly smart with this stuff.

    And I think VEGF and KGF are actually components of PRP. I know that PRP hasn't been that successful in growing new hair, but what if larger concentrations of VEGF and KGF are injected into the scalp? I wish doctors would try this, but again, most are not trying anything new unless it involves some kind of surgery.

    Oh really? Lol - so how do you get those then brah? From the local supermarket? And you'd be naive on a whole new scale if you think Histogen have already outlined their full list of ingredients for a product that could potentially treat millions of people.

    Histogen are spending enough on developing this so they're not just going to divulge what they're doing. They will have specific formulas of their ingredients as well.

    I would not advise trying to replicate this in your bathroom. God knows what you could be injecting in to your scalp, you'd probably wake up with ******ing wings or a giant head or something.
