Didn't Replicel state that ALL of those who received treatment experienced stabilization of hairloss? Doesn't this include those who were the "non-responders" in the 6-month analysis? Those who did not have regrowth could have been bald long enough that they have formed fibrotic tissue around...

I am rather hopeful for Replicel. I'd be happy even if it halts or slows hair loss. Although full regrowth would be great, I doubt that it'll happen with this particular treatment (which was shown in the Aderans trials and Replicel has been stating the same recently). Nameless does bring up a...

I believe that their funding was cut for their hair loss trials. I'm not trying to start any sort of a conspiracy theory, but I think Bosley is their sister company so maybe that could have influenced the discontinuation of their future trials.

I agree! However, I believe that you will not need to get treatments every 5 years or so. I think the results are permanent as the DHT-resistance is passed on to the follicle (at least that's what Replicel is advertising and it's also shown in the Aderans trial).

Isn't Replicel using a similar method to what Aderans used? Look at the second paragraph, it states that in their phase 2 trial that they found that their treatment prevented future hairloss. I know that Aderans was discontinued but this shows that RCH-01 can offer maintenance as shown in...

Yeah I agree with what you're saying. Both the dermal papilla and the dermal sheath cup cells lose inductivity in mass culture so I figure that both are experiencing similar issues so both can be resolved in a similar fashion. The paper was published in May and Shiseido started their trial in...

Which thread did you discuss micro dosing finasteride? Did you only experience sides/libido issues while micro dosing or did you also get sides from taking larger doses? I'm particularly interested in micro dosing finasteride so any info that I can get would be much appreciated!

I believe their original plan was to immunize hair, but correct me if I'm wrong.

In the same email they state, "once the injections are complete we believe there should be no need for further treatment." They also said something along the lines that they don't believe it will really benefit completely bald people. They stated that they are planning on only enrolling...

I don't know if you guys have seen this before but this cleared up quite a bit of confusion for me (I would include the link to this, but I can't because it's "spam-like"). This from an email from replicel.

My guess is that regrowth will be slightly better when campared to finasteride. I bet it will vary greatly from person to person.
