    no it won't... you see, there is a "smart" molecule inside bimatoprost that is able to detect its surroundings and if it finds itself near the temples, it will shut off itself automatically so it won't work...

    They're nearing the end of Phase 2, this means they knew about the effects of Prostaglandins before the news came out that Cotsarelis had made a big discovery about it?
    Again, I'm confused.
    no they didn't.... bimatoprost or whatever was used to treat glaucoma. Many people have gotten long eyelashes and many women have tried applying it to the scalp with great results. This is just another "hair growth" treatment that was discovered by accident...

    Default No I'm taking when spectral dnc like 2008

    Now I'm on the new formula 3 months in with dncn and astressin b,I tried propecia but get too fat, trx2 was a waste of time ATM my hair is stale 3 months in, I just dont see why they would bring a treatment out like this if it was not better than rogaineSpectral etc and bother going to the FDA!!

    Yeah I think so too. FDA trials are not cheap, and if they didn't expect Bim to be more effective than Minox, they wouldn't bother doing the trials.

    The nice thing about this is that Latisse is already being prescribed by some doctors for hairloss, it's just not FDA approved for that purpose. We shouldn't have to wait years for Allergen to finish their trials-once (if) they release good phase 2 results in September, we should be seeing other companies releasing higher concentration bimatoprost in early 2013 or MAYBE even late 2012. Spencer has said this is a real possibility.

    It won't be FDA approved at that time, but most people on here won't care about that since it has already proven to be safe through Allergen's phase I trials.

    Yeah, Latisse is around 100$ for 3ml. It's enough for one application on scalp
