Amen to this. Especially since you and I suffer from finasteride side effects. Today's methods to regrow hair are very rudimentary and minimal. And the worst thing is that most professionals within the hair restoration industry are perfectly content with these treatments (and not innovating at all) because they are making ridiculous amounts of money with these limited treatments. It's sickening, frankly.

This story is a couple months old, but I just saw it and it blew me away: http://www.theguardian.com/science/2...eering-surgery
Yesterday, I was certain that a damaged spinal cord meant being paralyzed for life. Today, doctors have a potential treatment. It's hard to see the forest for the trees, but at times it really does feel like were in the middle of medical revolution. I have faith. It's possible and probable that we won't get a hair loss treatment in 2015, but it's certainly within sight. Each year brings us closer.Comment

Anyways I don't think we will see much in 2015, however 2016 should be the results year. The make it or break it year. If some of this treatments show good results then it is only the question of financing them for Phase 3 trials.
I hope we will hear good news we've waited for far too long.Comment

While it’s great to see the mainstream media cover hair loss in a serious manner, much of what we see online, in print or on television can be misleading to those who don’t take the time to do their due diligence. The take away here is to understand the limitations of the mainstream media when...

The problem is that the cure is long overdue. It's become an ongoing joke for the last 10 years.Comment

I always brushed off replicel but since sheseido came into the picture there is a lot of evidence that this is the big one. They put up all this money from just the pilot study which showed some with 19% improvement at 6 months. They are jumping right into phase two and conducting a separate phase two in japan just to get it out sooner. To me this says they have a potential cure or damn close to it. They are virtually in no danger of running out of funding and for once they have given us actual details of their strategy.Comment

In late 2015 SM and CB will be finishing Ph. II. and if results are good both 'll be heading to the long lasting phase III. The only treatment with some chance to be on the market sooner than those two is Bim.
That's why i think 2016 will be the "make or break" year. By that time we should have enough info to know if we are going to grow some hair with the new treatments or if we 'll continue to be stuck with the current "maintenance only" options.
Also the trial in Taiwan using Jahoda 3d culturing method are scheduled to be completed in late 2016. Some exciting stuff, i think. Lets hope the taiwanese succeed to culture those damn dp cells. That very well could be the closest thing to a cure we'll see in the next few years...Comment

I have a thought just ran through my mind. Bro science somtimes has its ground and seems promising but no one look into it deeper. Can we suggest the ideas to some Chinese scientists as they are easily motivated by potential big earnings unlike the Western ones who are content with their current income from current treatment.Comment
