In the best case, I think it will give you a significant increase in density, which may be enough for some people. For most people, I think the best results would come in conjunction with a hair transplant, provided that they are compatible with each other. I can't see Histogen giving you a refined hairline like a top hair transplant surgeon can. Hope I'm wrong though, and something like Histogen turns out to be a full cure.
    yeah histogen will probably not be a cure.

    I think replicel best it can do is inmunize your hair for a pretty long time as tracy suggested.

    Anyways Who's down for bald field trip to asia?

    Let's get together take over histogen base and treat ourselves NOW !
    It might not do anything if we are too bald.

    Who's down to join an army of bald men to take down Histogen's headquarters in Asia !

      that's right.

        Just read on Histogen's website:

        '....as well as induce
        stem cells in the scalp to form new follicles.'

        This is good news for slick bald areas surely??

            As we've discussed to death already... only if it's true!

            There is currently no proof one way or the other that HSC created any new follicles in its human trials. The theoretical basis for it seems to suggest it is unlikely, but we don't know for sure.

              I never saw this interview, dont know if you guys have or not - it's an old one.

                The only question I have:

                how many injections needed to apply "growth" over entire head? < 10 would be a success for me

                    I'd take a thousand + injections if it meant I would be getting my hair back.

                      a thousand injections wouldn't be practical. A hundred injections wouldn't be practical either.
                      it would really suck if they had to make seperate injections 2mm apart over your entire head....

                        Who knows? But I'm definitely willing to take the max amount of injections.



                        Btw if this stuff hits Asia early, I'll be on the first plane there.

                          They would have to charter hairloss flights.

                            yes but it will be extremely hard to distribute all that growth evenly if it only spreads over 2mm.....

                              It might be a very time consuming task, like a ht maybe?

                                much worse so it would be very bad if the number of injections needed over entire head(female market) is over 20.....
