Well if you are just starting to lose your hair then stem cell injection type therapies sound like a pretty good option for halting that although that new thread on hairclone is interesting since it's been claimed this type of therapy will halt hair loss but they say more injections will be required as the hairloss progresses. "This process would be Repeated every 2-5 years as the balding process continues". Does this mean the effects of the injected cells wear off or does it not completely halt the hair loss just slows it down? I guess we'll find out.I guess. What in your opinion is our biggest hope (i.e Replicel, Follica, RIKEN)..
Follica in my own opinion will be great if Minoxodil and dermarolling already work for you and if they do I would just use them right now and not have to wait at all. I personally dont believe Follica making a super slick looking scalp tenderizer is going to make all the difference vs a dermaroller and I dont think their new ointments or formulas are going to be game changer although I do hope they are. You could say well Follica is owned by a big company (Puretech isnt huge but anyway) they arent going to pour thousands of dollars into sh*t product but its definately been done before somebody had to commercialize laser caps. You could also say well Follica wont do something like that but I also cant personally judge the integrity of any of Puretechs products since I'm pretty sure there are none yet.
So far Organ Tech and Tsuj has stated their obstacles precisely and announced that they have been eliminating them one by one hopefully this trend continues.
I think the what should be more concerning especially with hair cloning methods (real ones not just proliferating cells for injection) is not if biotechnology will advance to a point where we can fix this but will your wallet advance to meet the price when it does come out I mean what if it comes out tomorrow and you cant afford it? I wouldnt skip out on budgeting and doing whatever you can to put yourself in a better financial position in the hopes that "well the prices will go down with time". How much? How much have hair transplants gone down? What about other cosmetic surgeries? What about actually getting to the place for the therapy? There will probably need to be more than one trip you'll need accommodations overseas flight etc.
