Even if all it does is stimulate resting follicles, that's freaking amazing. For people with bald scalps, it could get some of their hair back, and for people with thinning it could possibly be full recovery.
Do you not want them to succeed or something?
I dont think that is negative. Just stating a fact.

would you want to go to a NW0, will most ethical Dr's do that?. I think you would look odd a NW0 at 50!

That post wasn't particularly negative, but there's just a trend of his posts being extremely skeptical about results that have been produced.

So what has that go to do with the treatment not working for men with thinning spots?

Hair follicles in a bald scalp aren't simply in the telogen (i.e., resting) phase. A treatment that prompts early cycling of hair in the telogen phase therefore won't do anything for bald scalps.

Where do some get the idea that having a Norwood 0 or youthful hairline at 50 or 60 makes you look odd? So what about all those senior citizens out there with a full head of hair (NW0) ? Do they look odd? Don't think so. Who really wants to look old If they don't have to? You are only as young as you feel and if you can look how you feel, go for it.......and another point, isn't looking young or keeping young, through finding a cure for MPB Everybodys objective here? Because last time I check , baldness adds years if not decades to ones appearance.

TBH that argument of it looking weird at 50 is silly. It's a statement made by HT doctors in order to make the patient feel better about themselves with a more recessed hairline.
All with perfect NW0 hair, and don't look weird.
What the **** is going on with these people? Do they all have hair transplants, or just lucky? I see literally no recession, I can't fathom it.

I'm not skeptical about the results; I'm skeptical about people here understanding what those results actually mean.

They aren't balding.
This is why I think the whole concept of a "mature hairline" is BS.
At best a mature hairline is very slow MPB.
