Intercytex to be available in about a year?

[brevardo]

I listened to ReGrow Now this week and he says that Intercytex isn't too far away. Maybe it will be available in about 1 year. If this is true, it sounds like it could be the "end all, cure all" for hairloss. From what the announcer was saying is that Intercytex will make it possible to take a certain amount from your donor area and then they keep it in a cold area where the specialists can disect the follicle or cells and somehow get 10-14 new follicles out of it. Hair multiplication sounds similar but with only getting 2 or 3 times the results. Intercytex sounds like you will now have an infinite amount of hair follicles to work with and we won't need to worry about using up too much donor area? This sounds very exciting to me!

are you going to wait for people to post pics/vids of their grown out results before you get it done?

Yeah, but there was a news paper article saying it would start out between $40k and $90k.

Yeah, but there was a news paper article saying it would start out between $40k and $90k.

If it can give 14 years old real hair (and not fake doll hair) i think it's worth it. It's too good to be true. I think it will be a poor copy of our teenage hair.

Intercytex if I'm not mistaken has said it will cost less than a traditional hair transplant. I don't know how the article college mentioned came up with the $40-90K figure.

Do you have proof for it coming out in a year from Regrow Now brevardo? Do you have a transcript or an article?

I feel 2007 or 2008 won't be possible for it, more like 2009 or 2010. We just have to wait for the results of Phase II trials. I hope it grows thick hairs. They still need to go through Phase III and then comes approval.

In the mean time, I'm saving up for this and finishing school.

Within a few years the prices will decrease drastically. If it is 50k in 2010 then it should be like 10k in 2020. Trust me! We should rather worry about HM working at all (and "working" for me means that they give me back my teenage hairline....).

I don't understand why some people on this board are pessimistic IMO about the cost. I have e-mailed Intercytex and they told me in an e-mail response that it would be cheaper than a hair transplant.

I know they need to make money and all, but it doesn't make economic sense why they would do it at 50K. Only people in higher-level positions could afford it.

I think it would be maybe 15-20K since it's a brand new technology of course it would be expensive at first. If it catered to only the rich, then they wouldn't make much profit and would go out of business shortly. Intercytex probably gets a ton of e-mails from people asking about ICX. Even the British goverment gave them money, people want to see this succeed.

As time goes on, it will be cheaper and obtain an equlilibrium price. It's basic economics people. Besides, they said too this would the first generation of ICX then the second and so on generations of this procedure will come making it better. It might not make a NW7 an NW1 or 2 at first but future improvements on it will.

Whatever happened to nervx by the way?

PhatFunk replied "What is Regrow now and how do you listen to it?"





Sorry Phat. I'm not sure what the actual web site address is? I just usually go to Google and type regrow now and it usually comes up first. Are they serious though about Intercytex costing $40,000? I hope they are wrong as that is going to be way out of my range.

I'm an engineer, not a doctor or a marketing expert or businessman. But I really don't think it could cost more than 20K, and even that would not be affordable my many many men, which would mean they'd be losing a lot of potentail business.

I just don't think they'd make much money if the cost were any more than 20K, because nobody would spring the cost. I do want it to cost 20K, or even 10K, but this doesn't influence my point. My point is that if the price is too high, only a small percentage of people could afford it.

But maybe it will be around 40K for the first year or two, which a lot of rich businessmen and atheletes and celebs can afford, and then the price will come down. This is how it works with anything that comes out. Still can't believe that the CD player once cost over $800, and now you can buy a walkman for $25.

But we won't know until it comes out, or until they figure out how costly the procedure is during Phase II or III trials.

 

[NedFlanders]

I will be shocked if it does come out and it is at this price. Just think about how they would limit there profits if they did this. I mean I say over 60% of people couldnt afford it.

 

[jayman33]

yes by the time we retire, it might be afordable! but then we"ll be on fixed income"s and not able to afford it anyhow. might better stick with the finasteride and a limp dick! by retirement, you won"t need the dick either!.......

 

[ANDREW_J_I]

when intercyclex emailed me, they told me that it would cost less than a haoir transplant.

 

[person_123]

it all depends on how much the procedure costs them.

at first, it will cost them alot as they would have to buy new equipment, storage facilities, clinics, staff, the list goes on.

after a while, the items they must buy may become cheaper, so they will accordingly decrease the price of hm.

they wont charge too much as that would exclude the majority of the market. (rich people tend to care less about hair loss compared to average people, as they have their money to keep them happy).

I recon 2008 for Intercytex but will be expensive to start but not out of limits compared to several HRT's ..$20k...Web site looks promising and goverment pumped lots of money in last month because they see it as an investment

I would pay whatever it takes to get happiness back again.

Was considering getting some shares..if they perfect it then it will be one of the biggest money making things in a very long time.

We should all keep optomistic this will come out in the near future so that one day we will all have full heads of hair no matter what.....hairdressers will be made up too.

The shares have climbed over the last two months. Some news today:

Intercytex Group said clinical development pipeline during 2007 'encouraging'


Intercytex Group PLC (LSE: ICX.L - news) said it has made strong progress across its clinical development

pipeline during 2007 with positive clinical efficacy data being generated on all the products in its portfolio.

The cell therapy company said with significant news-flow in the first half of 2008, it is well positioned to capitalise on the rapidly emerging field of regenerative medicines.

It added that pre-commercialisation evaluation of its Vavelta facial rejuvenation product is proceeding well.

Clinical trial sites in Germany for ICX-PRO, designed to stimulate active repair in chronic wounds, have taken longer and Intercytex now expects to complete enrolment in the second quarter of 2008.

By end-March 2008, the company expects to announce preliminary data of its hair regeneration product ICX-TRC
