A new treatment will likely come in your lifetime. However, we cannot know if it will work for everyone.


The remedy that will most probably work for everyone is hair multiplication. The timeline for that, however, is more unreliable, given the the difficulties inherent to the technique.

Will hair multiplication give good density?? Will it fall after sometime??
I am afraid none of the questions you pose can be answered with certainty.
Our lord Tsuji was confident, in one interview, the density would not be a problem.
However, we know from present hair transplants that implanting new hair where some hair already exists can cause some “shock loss”. I think this side effect is very individual.
If it will fall after some time... I believe the hair that gets multiplied and implanted will come from regions of the head where it is not supposed to fall (back and sides). All of this would make you think it will NEVER fall.
Nevertheless, there have been cases in which transplanted hair taken from the back will however fall.
Will it be a problem if falls? No. Because, if it falls from where it is placed, you can multiply and implant additional hair...
I am looking forward to Tsuji, man.
I guess he is our best bet ATM.

go on the "new treatments" section that is where everyone is discussing the new treatments.

but, there is a lot of hype on there. some people are convinced the cure will be out in 5 years, yet for me i see nothing new for the past 20 years.
i think we will be waiting a long, long time

Were you already born when minoxidil came out?
I think it was the late 80s.
I was a kid but I clearly remember my father and a distant cousin discussing how they hoped minoxidil would be their savior.
After six months, they both dropped it as non-responders :D

Probably still at least a decade away. The problem is, we're all getting older anyway. Yes, getting our hair back will fill us with joy, but what will we have to look forward to beyond that? Grey hair and saggy skin.

I think it's pretty likely we will witness a cure before the year 2100. I'm not basing this on anything, just a gut feeling...and 2100 is a pretty conservative estimate.

I think one day, kids who start to notice thinning hair will just go get an injection in their scalp or something and be good. Maybe they'll have to get another injection every few years, or something like that, but it will effectively be a cure.

I don't know, guess I'm just talking out of my ***. But remember, finasteride is a relatively recent development, so new things can always come out.

That being said, don't hold your breath, thinking you don't need to take finasteride because a new cure will come out soon. Take finasteride. We're f*****g lucky we have it...30 years ago we'd just be screwed.

I tried minoxidil back in 1990 needed a script for it back than at 2 percent it swelled up my ankles great stuff

But but...
By 2100 we will spend more time in virtual reality than in the real reality... who will care for physical hair?

In 2100 you, me and everyone else will be in hell. Because heaven doesn’t accept bald people, come back later, the gates are temporarily closed.

Are you making fun of me for making a totally baseless prediction? I guess I deserve it, lol.
No, I am actually serious
I do believe virtual realty will be a thing before we really understand genetic manipulation

Yeah, you are probably right that VR is going to be a big thing this century. Nice thought, we won't have to worry about how we really look because our virtual avatars will be more important, lol.
