If A Cure Were To Come Out Soon, What Do You Think It Would Be?

The first 3 potential breakthrough treatments coming are:

1. Follica

2. Kerastem

3. Replicel

If Kerastem produces good positive results I will definitely use it in conjunction with Replcel and/or Tsuji because it could reduce the problem of continued hair loss even after Replcel's treatment or Tsuji's treatment. Remember that fat reduction is involved in hair loss and if you get Tsuji or Replicel your fat layer will continue to shrink as you age so you will continue to lose hair. I understand that both Replicel and Tsuji have plans to eliminate the risk of continued losses after you get their treatments but adding some fat via Kerastem could also help protect the hair we have and the hair we get from Tsuji and Replicel. When it comes to hair there's no such thing as too much protection. Better safe than sorry.

Heh? If by cure you mean maintenance I can see that.

Researchers will be aiming for more than just maintenance. Neogenesis is where the bar is set now. Since the UCLA study published this summer, they think now they can activate stem cells to affect hair growth. I can imagine a treatment that will eventually come in a tube. We will slather it on our heads and wait for the new hair to grow. And people once thought that striped toothpaste was a technological marvel. Treatments are definitely on the way just a matter of when.

Neogenesis is where the bar has always been set newbie.

They just haven't been able to achieve it yet is all.

While I think it would be cool to be able to buy a cream you lather on your head and 7 months later boom nw7 is now John Snow, I don't know if I believe a topical will ever be able to create that many hairs or hairs at all from scratch. I do now realize striped toothpaste is common these days so a serum to induce massive follicular neogenisis by the tens of thousands has to be around the corner. We will see.

I seriously doubt that topical drugs alone will ever be able to cure hairloss.

Or at least, if they ever will — I'll be so f*****g old it's irrelevant to my life. It's literally about regenerating organs, tiny ones; and the technology to do that with JUST a topical drug is a long way off.

New treatment that is available now is 3% tofacitinib + %7 minoxidil + bimatoprost 0.1% + melatonin 0.1% all in one topical solution. It's called Biohair 7X and available through Dr Robert Hashemiyoon in Los Angeles or Ebay.

Drugs have been relevant to all of us long time. It is said that Edward Jenner probably saved more lives than any other human being in history with the small pox vaccine, an old drug discovery. Salk and Sabine saved millions more lives with a drug to combat polio. Drugs have saved humanity from the deadliest diseases in history. Don't be surprised if drugs cure hair loss and hearing loss, too.

A topically applied drug is looking good as the first real treatment for Alopecia Areata. AA was, until the last two years or so, a vexingly difficult hair loss disorder to understand. Christiano's research shows that jakinibs are doing a lot more than just inhibiting janus kinase.

Clinical trials using a cocktail of drugs to re-grow hair-like structures in human cochlea are just months away. That's amazing because stereocilia or stereovilli are not genetically programmed to re-grow, like the other 5 million or so hair follicles on our bodies normally do.

It is not a question of if drugs will be used to treat hair loss, hearing loss and more, but when will they be approved for use in people? It's happening now. It is estimated that the doubling time of medical knowledge in 1950 was 50 years; in 1980, it was 7 years; in 2010, 3.5 years. In 2020 it is projected to be just 0.2 years or 73 days. Almost monthly now, someone announces new research findings of the hair follicle. Using two new drugs, publicly-funded researchers can now activate stem cells to grow hair. New drugs for hair loss and hearing loss are in the skunkworks. It's not a matter of if but when.

You really have a kerastem problem

Specifically, what would that problem be?
Can't think of injecting fat could be the solution to regrowth. There are several results in Europe that prove it ain't working and I really don't think that these were so much worse than a Doctor in the USA and the FDA won't change much more.

Anything without mutiplication or a mass of new drugs combined specifically for neogenesis sounds like mumbo jumbo to me, really don't know why your expectations are so high for this

And Alopecia Areata is a different problem from Androgenetic Alopecia

Areata patients still have their hair follicles.

and I hope they succeed so I can get rid of my tinnitus.

It is not a question of if drugs will be used to treat hair loss, hearing loss and more, but when will they be discovered?

Perhaps decades from now.

Almost monthly, someone announces new research findings of the hair follicle. Using two new drugs, they can now activate stem cells to induce hair growth.

as they have been doing on lab rats who do not have Androgenetic Alopecia for decades now and they try and fail to apply it to humans who do have Androgenetic Alopecia.

It's ridiculous to see scientists repeatedly make this amateur misunderstanding of the condition by assuming that because some compound grew hair on a mouse that had some stuff switched off so that its hair didn't grow, but when the compound was applied, its hair started growing again, that "zomg it could one day cure baldness!". Nope. The subjects they always test on still have the necessary underlying structures (follicles) which the drug essentially reanimated. In humans, the follicle shrinks until it is ostensibly destroyed; creation of a new follicle is required.

Contemporary science has basically demonstrated beyond a reasonable doubt at this point that this requires greater precision in recreating the processes in developing a follicle than slathering some jojoba oil and with some fancy sh*t in it can provide.

Personally, I think if a topical formula for hair regeneration is ever possible, it will only come after therapy like hair multiplication or wounding neogenesis is a common, well-understood procedure and the formula contains nanomachines, son — but that's a long way off.

AA and Androgenetic Alopecia are both considered non scarring alopecias.

Me, too.

They've been engineering mice to have Androgenetic Alopecia, AA and a number of other human diseases for a while now. Mice are the most cost effective test lab animals with over 100 years of research data on record.

I think Tsuji's method will be useful for a range of hair loss disorders but especially for burn victims, cancer patients, people with scarring and rare types of alopecias. In the mean time, they are now able to activate stem cells with drugs to grow hair - without need for biopsies or elaborate stem cell expansion procedures. Two new drugs are now patented as a result.

So? They have completely different causes.

*Citation needed.

I have never seen a study where they actually gave a mouse legit Androgenetic Alopecia. I'm sorry, but you expect me to believe we have an understanding of a genetic "defect" advanced enough that allows us to give it to a different species, but we don't understand enough about it's mechanisms to prevent or reverse it in humans?

Two new drugs are now patented as a result.

Which?

Woah there slow down my friend you realize how fast you were going? I just want to say 5 words to you just real quick take a seat are you listening? One and a half weeks... thats how long this lactate hype trains been running. The cars are still brand new all the conducters we have on rotation are still feeling the gears out we are experimenting with it because we dont know exactly what its going to do yet. I do think it's a very interesting discovery and its really coo and all but let's set the cruise to school district and be cautious.

I am curious about this one also which are these? how much hair? What?

I think that Kerastem + hair transplant should also be added to that list of possibilities for the near future.

I did not say that gene editing would be available for hair loss in 4 years. I said it would be availalbe 3 - 4 years after Tsuji. Tsuji is about 2 1/2 years away plus 3 to 4 years = 5 1/2 to 6 1/2 years to gene editing to cure hair loss.

So roughly 5 years or so?

Most likely maintenance and some form of growth accelerant

And the fact that Yale University disagrees with you means nothing to you, right?

You figure that your broscience is better than real science by Yale University, right?
