    Lightbulb Future hair loss cure/treatments?

    So due to my worrying on my own hair loss, I started getting interested in the progression of future treatments. For example, from what I could find, the latest 'breakthrough' was the new knowledge of PGD2 that this university learned or... Something? And blah blah could be on shelves withing 2-3 years blah blah.

    There was also... Histogen? I think?
    Anyway, It's just that I don't know much about them and would like to learn more.

    What do you all think? Does the whole PGD2 thing sound promising? Will a cure for baldness be coming within the next 5-10 years? Will annie ever make it back to the farm and save her dog mr ruffles from the fire?

    Share your knowledge with me guys!

    Don't get too interested; you might get your hopes up.

    Annie does make it back to the farm, but not in time to save Mr. Ruffles.

    There is a better chance of Annie putting out the fire running back and forth with buckets of water from the well, than having a balding cure within the next 10 years.

    Who the hell is Annie, and why is her farm on fire?

    Look, if you want the honest truth, we're walking a tightrope in terms of hoping for a cure for hair loss.

    By that I mean all our hopes... everything... rests on the works of two prime companies, the first is Histogen the second is Follica (yes I know Replicel too but they are years off).

    I have always been a strong proponent of Histogen, ever since they first made a press release actually, Follica however are looking incredibly strong ATM (touch wood), the president of the company recently made the following statement:

    Dr William Ju (President of Follica, also used to work for Merck back in the 90's): "This discovery sheds light on a novel mechanism to regenerate hair follicles and opens an exciting new avenue to develop treatments for hair loss in humans," noted Dr. William Ju of Follica, Inc. "Follica has developed a technology platform that is uniquely suited to support clinical translation of these new findings. The Follica platform can be used to induce skin reepithelialization, which creates a "window of opportunity" during which the Fgf9 pathway could be modulated to potentiate hair neogenesis."
