It seems obvious you'd want to treat/immunize all of your head to prevent all future miniaturization.

If not, give rise to more hair anyway.

This is awesome! Really hope they have started trials or at least starting soon. 1 year data readout should be sufficient if it is successfull and as the researcher believe that 1 treatment is enough.

This really could be out by 2018.... Great news! This news has to make other companies (hist, SM, Follica) worried. The greatness of competition!

There is nothing about this on Replicel FB page. Japanese are very smart people, so probably they will improve Replicel method and technology.

Why Replicel FB page is not updated with this news? Maybe it is just another story “we will start clinical trials soon as possible“?

Can someone who knows japanese to contact Shiseido and ask them?

Interestingly, researcher thinks effectiveness of only a single treatment is permanent.
That's encouraging! Maybe it's true. When you replicate cells from the "safe zone", newly generated follicles might prove immune to androgen damage. (read that follicles from male pattern baldness patients' occipital scalp have less androgen receptors)

Does anyone know if the single injection is referring to just immunizing the follicles from dht damage or is it reffering to regrowth as well. So for instance would one injection be enough to grow all the hair u lost back? There was an animated vid on replicels youtube page where it pretty much showed that, but I guess that was just to illustrate if the their hypothesis was correct.

Nobody truly knows yet

They are claiming regeneration.

- Then they turn around and claim maintenance.
Let's be honest, we've heard them say both on different occasions, and I don't think anyone's yet found the courage to press them for a definite answer. We really should, though.

Their website clearly states regeneration and I've heard them say regeneration in several interviews - not saying that'll actually happy. I think the maintenance angle was spread more on the forums than anywhere else.

Well...

- He said that he thinks there is point of no return in Androgenetic Alopecia. That means that after some time you can’t regrow hair.

- He said that best candidates for RCH are women and men with thinning hair.

Exactly. Was just about to quote the thread Swoop linked to.
So there you go; three years from now (at the earliest) we'll all get to happily maintain that mad sexy Nicolas Cage hairline we've always wanted.

That's where waiting gets you.
