Histogen Update - Spencer Kobren Speaks With Dr. Craig L. Ziering

[PatientlyWaiting]

I just found this on their investors document:

apparently it will be even cheaper than a hair transplant...

Hmm.

Well $5k is not an astronomical amount of money in it's own. The question is, what is priced that way? In this case it's an injection. And, this is an injection that it's not crystal clear if it will give us the amount of coverage a current hair transplant will give us. So it's cheaper than a hair transplant, but it's probably cheaper for a reason.

I do have to say, $5k is nearing the upper limit of what my vanity is worth to me. If nothing else though, it's good to know that I would be able to afford it if I absolutely needed to. Honestly, I'm really hoping that in two or three years, or whenever this actually ends up being available, I'll have finally gotten used to the idea of being bald.

Here's a postive development from Allergan: http://www.bernsteinmedical.com/hair...ss-medication/

Overall increase in hair density (unclear how they define hair density) 22% in 50% of participants in 24 weeks.

Obviously, this is already FDA approved and on the market but it could become less expensive and more practical as a hairloss treatment in a relatively short period of time.

whats the difference between latanoprost and bimatoprost? Are there currently two seperate studies being done on them?

Is bernstein working with allergan?

The other study is with 600 people, gender split.

I believe latanoprost is a similar but less effective type of prostaglandin analogue. I don't believe Dr. Bernstein is working with Allergan. This approach would appear to be consistent with recent research findings regarding PGD2.
