those prices aren't set in stone. i think he does for around $7/graft if you ask

I guess it's like anything--you gotta shop around :hairy: Still, not gonna get too excited since they haven't even tried this stuff in people yet. We've all be led down this path before.

Hmm...I've read that a typical dermabrasion session can be in the several thousands because of the additional anesthesia/hospital fees. Maybe they can do the lesser micro version. This is potentially a costly procedure because some of those drugs in the patent are super expensive. But it sure...

I hope you wouldn't have to do dermabrasion, as that would be really expensive and pretty painful recovery.

Hmm...so maybe mask off an area and scrub. Sounds too simple to be true. Here's hoping.

Theoretically, would one be able to create a hairline even where there never was originally hair(i.e., lower a naturally high hairline)? It seems like it would grow hair practically anywhere. If so, how would they control the shape of the hairline?

i think it's a big positive sign that this made it onto a huge national morning show. you certainly don't see any of the other guys willing to do that yet. here's hoping

with my luck it will arrive in 2012, i'll get it done, then the world will end dec 21st :badmood:

so where are they as far as trials go? it seems like everything they use is already approved and shouldn't take years

same here. i had it bad on my shoulders and propecia wiped it out....something antibiotics couldn't even stop

propecia wiped out my shoulder acne

i don't see how finasteride can give 10+ years of stability. i see people all the time write that it quit being effective a few years in and that their loss picked up. were these just bad responders?

what i'm saying is i just think i'd be doubly depressed if i lost my hair, grew it all back, then lost it again.

semantics. i see many people posting that propecia and other drugs worked great for x amount of years, but then they slide back to where they started. i'd just hate to get my hopes up with all that growth, only to have it dashed in the future. i'm still taking propecia though haha :hairy:

that's great and all, but what happens when the drug loses its effectiveness? he's right back to square one. i'm tired of these temporary cures...bring on something permanent
