so whats the news from Congress this year

Histogen came back into the game and showed(with images) that their product has a cosmetically significant affect on hairloss, with continued improvement 1 year after treatment. Heading into Phase III in Asia/Mexico. Phase II in North america.

SM just came out two days ago saying they are very impressed with their product and plan to release phase II results at the next medical conference, "The findings are consistent with preclinical in vivo animal models, in which SM04554 has been shown to generate new hair follicles and increase hair count." Likely heading into Phase III in the USA by the sound of it.

Bimatoprost came out and said they have a stronger affect than minoxidil(about 10-20% better going by the charts they showed) at a higher dose and are going straight into a Phase IIb to perfect it.

Up next is the phase II CB results!

If they haven't faked their results (and the camera angle/lighting on their own aren't enough to fake those pictures) then people can really breath a sigh of relief finally. It means all that's standing between them and a normal head of hair is a quite large amount of money and an OK amount of time. Given that it can be combined with a hair transplant with further loss no longer a problem. Which is the main problem with hair transplants currently.

They have evidence it does grow hair on humans? And is it oral or topical?

Same question, oral or topical?

refer to that for SM info, yes they observed promising growth on actual humans, it is a topical, along with BIM which is a topical as well.

Histogen's photos were slightly off angle, but clearly showed cosmetic improvement, either way they are moving forward and clearly have a product that works heading into Phase III in asia/mexico(and why would they want to fake the images anyway, it may get them investors in the short-term, but if it was fraudulent then everyone would find out and there would be no profits, I really just think they are a bit unprofessional with their images and the angles are just off by an inch or so.)
