    that depends what your degree is in and what school you went to

        Yes most likely.

          Depends on where in the UK you live, and how you live, but on average id say around £7,000 per year.

              how did this thread digress so fast?


              Scorpion... if you are smart enough to get a degree you're smart enough to use google to answer these questions... I mean who refers to their masters degree as a masters degree? WHAT KIND? a master degree in jerking off isn't going to help much.

                  I think it's fair to say anything over £10k is a considerable amount of money for most people, which would require life style changes and choices if they decided to loan that amount of money on top of other large expenses such as their home and car.

                  For most people here I'd imagine you are willing to sacrifice a lot for your hair. That's why you're on the forums. You're part of the relatively small percentage who actively pursue a solution to your hair loss.

                  Many millions of people simply don't do anything about hair loss because there is no cure, no where near a cure. Current treatments are a) expense b) carry side effects and c) Give substandard, unreliable and unimpressive results.

                  Replicel could be the most affordable treatment available, which also gives the best results. Bringing all the people not pursuing a treatment into the market and boy they will make a hell of a lot of money.

                  Pricing this treatment at 50% plus of a persons yearly wage is no good for any one, including Replicel.

                  But we'll see...

                    Ah yes, of course. The biopsy and hair replication will justify higher prices. Still, compared to a hair transplant no where near as many man hours are needed.

                      Even if that were true, is it really relevant to the cost? After all, HT doctors typically charge based on the number of grafts implanted, not on the elapsed time of the surgical process.

                        Not everyone has zippo debt and little expenses.

                        Me? It would take me one year to save that much money but I am an exception to the rule in many ways and no, I do not make over $100k/year.

                        Of course, saving it for a year would be more like "putting back what I took out"

                          Where I live the average salary is about 800$ a month. Most of that goes to living expenses and food. So maybe people can save 1000$ a year max.
                          There should be a hair tax. Tax those that have full heads of hair and divide the monies among those that have less, so we could pay for the treatments. If there are no treatments, then we could at least take the money and have a good time to forget about our bad hair days.

                              And why stop there:
                              • Fat tax: Tax fat people to pay for food for the skinny people.
                              • Skinny tax: Tax skinny people to pay for the fat people's weight watchers and/or gastric bands.


                              Wait lets stop there don't give the conservatives in the UK any ideas!

                                Many hair transplant surgeons, plastic surgeons, dermatologists, cosmetic dentists, etc, offer financing programs through big banks for elective surgeries. I don't see why RepliCel's procedure would be any different.
