"without Any Doubt, There Has Never Been A Better Year Than This One In The Hair Loss Research"

[mr_robot]

Like with boob jobs, slim women with big boobs exist, mature men with great hairlines exist. So there's always that sense of not being sure if that was indeed the case. I generally don't assume boobjob except in overtly crazy cases.

I've never seen anyone who is mature that had great density and was a NW0, there is always some recession of the hairline even when the hairline itself is dense. Even if I could get a NW0 hairline I'd probably opt for a NW1 but I'm probably getting ahead of myself here, still years to go and for me at least replicel may be good enough.

No such thing as NW0 anyway, everyone starts at NW1 and slow or quickly moves up the norwood scale.

I tell you, i don't look bad bald.
However, i still will open a bottle of champagne when it's cured.

I wish my grandpa would have had access to the these new treatments. He never complained about his baldness, but he probably would have loved to get his hair back anyway.

here's a thread talking about hair multiplication being here by 2010 (posted in 2005)

https://www.gourmetstylewellness.com/interact/threads/hm-should-be-available-before-2010.12904/

one poster says that 2010 is a bit optimistic but HM will definitely be here by 2015... here we are still on propecia and minoxidil

and that thread was little more than baseless speculation. Here we are, more than a decade later with companies entering Phase III, no shortage of science proving it can be done (and by various methods I might add), Tsuji's method is on the road to commercialization via 3 multi-billion dollar companies and I see that the little popup in the bottom right corner of my screen says Histogen just received an additional 6 million in funding.

What's your point?

I swear some people just wanna turn everything here negative, I don't get it either

A key reason to be optimistic is that there are multiple treatments in development right now.

If each of them has a 33% chance of success, but you have 6 of them in development, then we should expect 2 new treatments that work.

Not to mention funding seems to be a bit more abundant. Samumed's valuation is crazy good. Replicel is backed by Sheseido, a mutli billion dollar company. Follica has Puretech Health which seems to be very good at attracting investors, moving on to their final trial. Brotzu's lotion got licensed by Fidia, also a very old established company. Even histogen which seemed to be the underdog with attracting investments seems to be chugging along. Lastly Tsuji with Riken and Kyocera, do I even have to say how well they're looking. What a time to be alive.

I don't get the appeal of NW0.

I'll take 1 NW1 please:

NW2 can also look good:

NW0 is too junior high imo

As a NW2, I disagree.

Normal brunette caucasian hair density is 200 hairs per cm2.

According to this source, density in the crown pre-puberty is between 250-400 per cm2. In adults it is 200-300 per cm2. The latter seems a bit high to me but it could well be true.

http://www.keratin.com/aa/aa014.shtml

At last year's hair congress, when Dr.Tsuji demonstrated that he grew 128 hairs per cm2 on the mice, he added that this density was the average for Japanese people. Asian people have on average less density than caucasians I think.

I wonder if Tsuji could tune the process to give patients however much density they wanted within reason (say up to 350 per cm2).

Wasn't aware it was that high. Bad news, would definitely want that density back.

It's not the ideal that NW1 is, but a solid NW2 isn't a "balding" look, imo. It's when you hit NW2.5+ that it becomes abrupt and starts to noticeably detract from the frame of your face.

Yup, I don't look "balding", but I have a big forehead and short lower third, which is accentuated by the large upper third due to high hairline. First world problems compared to most here, I guess.

If it looks that bad you night be 2.5 or 3

Nah, according to my derm I'm barely a full 2. I think I'm 2 on my right side, 1.5 on my left side.

I f*****g love science.

you say that but your prof pic isn't even Jesse Pinkman...

 

[buckthorn]

Playing devil's advocate but we don't yet know whether Tsuji's will allow you to go that far with density or if it will even look totally natural.

I think Tsuji spoke of 120 hairs per cm2 but we don't know if it density will be changeable or negotiable in clinic. 120-ish hairs per cm2 is normal density but certainly not child-like density.

120 hairs per cm2 is RIDICULOUS density!! I literally have no more than like 30 - 40 maximum. This would be 3-4 times the hair I have right now.

 

[buckthorn]

YO b**ch!!! SCIENCE AND SH*T. Like, why can't we like take some sh*t apart and build like a hair follicle robot b**ch!

 

[BTW]

I sure love all these irrelevant genes and protein studies with no actual clinical thought behind them!

I can't wait to present my results on conferences in Rome or Barcelona on university money!
