Hello Amigos,

Hello Amigos,


just to confirm, you inject histogen into the scalp?

yes, so far no discomfort or pain was experienced when doing so.

most likely will have to be done by a doctor.

Hey guys,

Here's a photo of a 50 year old guy after he had the histogen shots!
I DON'T BELIEVE IT!!!!!

and this is from finasteride - a tiny pill created over 20 years ago:

Does his dick still work?

Does his dick still work?

not the point. For Histogen to be more effective as finasteride, it would have to post pictures TWICE AS GOOD as finasteride pictures. Have you seen Rogaine pictures? Histogen's BEST pictures are nowhere even close to the AVERAGE results from Propecia and/or Rogaine.

2020 THREE things you need to take into account:

1) What you're comparing it to? The picture you have shown is of a patient on Minoxidil and Propecia for 12 months. A potent combination but with serious potential side effects. I don't think anyone is planning to take Propecia for the rest of their lives.

3) Compliance & Ease of Use: 2 sessions every 3 years vs. once daily oral tablet + twice daily topical application

2) Age group: this patient is well into his 50's, making him an unlikely responder on Propecia.

Now, I know that at least in the beginning Histogen will have its limitations. Mostly because their current safety trials never exceeded 2x2cm area. This means that their initial FDA approval will not allow them to exceed 20 injections per session. But hopefully in Phase IV long-term trial, they will try to expand their safety data on much larger numbers of injections.

You've joined last week and all your posts so far have been about nothing but praising Histogen? Nothing suspicious all right...

Your points are crap. Three sessions multiplied by nothing is still nothing. They haven't done anything.

Also, something that striked me last night as I read the news update was:

To date, Histogen has only released macroscopic photos of female patients and male patients over 50 years. Now, showing HSC's efficacy in these groups does sound groundbreaking, but what about the younger healthy males that have lost their hair in the last 5 years or so?

We already know that those in the younger group managed to grow back their temples, which is awesome; but where are the photos?

My guess is its coming in Feb 2013, just before they launch Phase III. Why? I'm not so sure...

2020 we're all buddies here mate, trying to help each other get through hairloss. I'm a recent nw2 that have some experience in trials and have gained so much by reading your posts and everybody elses. So I thought may be I should join and help answer some of your questions.

Cheers mate.
