In the grand scheme of things, we are 2 years closer to anything new.

I'll give you that Mr. Bimatoprost. We are closer to curing cancer too. We are also closer to buying new organs in the supermarket. On top of that we are closer to a pill that will transform you into Lazar Angelov. Exciting huh .

So, you'd rather be in 2013 then?

Enough with your bellyaching.

You could be making the exact same statement in the year 2025, so it's kinda pointless/ dumb.

[Scientalk56]

You're describing a sense or feeling. In reality, we are much closer to new treatments, and as time progresses, more is discovered. Saying that 2 years ago, things looked better makes no sense, because it is the past. In the grand scheme of things, we are 2 years closer to anything new.

Sadly its not the case . MANY companies that were showing promising aporoaches are now kinda dead (Acell, Replicel, histogen, and bitmorpost on its way)

[Keki]

Ah yes the dead replicel, so dead with his multimillion trial in 2 continent sponsored by the world largest cosmetic company

[Hairismylife]

Only a totally nonsense person would say Replicel is dead.
Btw Swooping doesnt want anything to work. Clearly he has had a hair transplant or he works for HT doctors. I've never seen he show optimistic about a stuff, even if it's back up by solid science or professional researcher.

It's called being realistic. It's stupid to think a bald guy wouldn't want a cure.

But science doesn't work that way. Things either work or not, faith is irrelevant

What has "optimism" brought to the community? Besides being an easy target to snake oil salesmen?

It's more pointless and dumb to be making the argument you are, because there will be a number of new treatments before that time. You're just whining about what's in your day-to-day consciousness.

I'm pretty optimistic about new treatment routes that are based on a lot of research and science.

Optimistic doesn't mean naive. I couldn't care less about follicept, that is snakeoil in my eyes until it proves something.

Answer the question - would you rather it be 2013 than 2015? Actually, I'll answer it for you - no you wouldn't.

I bring up time because research takes time, FDA trials take time. Currently, research is being done, and there are treatments on the horizon that are going through FDA trials. So, I'm not sure what you're going on about.
