Hair/scalp cloning for unlimited transplants is likely a decade away, with prior transplants not significantly affecting future options. Advances in AI and research in wound-induced hair neogenesis are promising, but infrastructure and technology constraints remain challenges.

Stemson's presentation discussed using induced pluripotent stem cell technology to create new hair follicles for treating hair loss. The conversation also mentions treatments like Minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841.

A recent discovery in hair cloning identified a previously unknown cell type essential for hair follicle growth, which could potentially make lab-grown hair viable if translated to humans. However, skepticism remains due to past delays and the challenges of replicating results in humans and making the process affordable.

A user proposed genetically engineering scalp stem cells to stop androgen receptors from causing hair loss. Others discussed the feasibility, existing research, and potential issues with this approach, including targeting the correct cells and unintended effects.

Emerging hair loss treatments like PP405, a topical MPC inhibitor, show promise in activating stem cells for hair growth. The conversation seeks information on the development stages and accessibility of these treatments.

Gene editing for hair loss is not yet viable due to technological and economic challenges. Current treatments like Minoxidil, finasteride, and hair transplants remain the most practical options.

Stem cell injections are not a guaranteed cure for hair loss and may have varying results. Other treatments mentioned include Minoxidil, finasteride, RU58841, nano fat, and Botox injections.

A user tried scalp microneedling with stem cells and exohealer in Korea for hair loss, costing $2.5k, and is awaiting results. Another user shared their experience using various growth factors and supplements, noting it improves existing hair but doesn't grow new hair, requiring monthly maintenance.

The conversation discusses hair loss treatments, comparing PRP and stem cells. The user is currently using finasteride, recently stopped minoxidil, and does microneedling once a week.

PP405 shows promise for hair regrowth by manipulating stem cell characteristics and lactate dehydrogenase, with Phase 2a trials pending. Google Ventures' $15M investment suggests confidence, but results and market availability remain uncertain.

A German startup, Mane Biotech, developed a head wearable device to reactivate hair follicle stem cells, sparking skepticism among users. Some users suspect it might be a scam, while others are interested in more information from the company's newsletter.

Adipose-derived stem cell secretome showed significant improvement in hair density and growth, especially when combined with minoxidil, suggesting a synergistic effect. The study had limitations, including a small sample size and potential bias.

Hair transplant recipients are concerned about whether dormant follicles are permanently damaged by incisions, but some believe undamaged follicles could still regrow if a treatment like PP405 is effective. Opinions vary on the impact of transplants on original follicles, with some suggesting treatments like finasteride can help regrow hair.

Hair cloning is being developed by companies like Kangstem Biotech and Stemson, with potential availability in a few years. Initial costs are expected to be high, but prices may decrease over time.

A user created a free AI-powered hair transplant simulator to help visualize post-transplant results, seeking feedback and offering it as a tool for clinics. Users discussed its usefulness, limitations, and the requirement for email and phone verification to prevent abuse.

The conversation discusses the benefits of combining scalp stem cell treatments and exohealer with RF microneedling before a hair transplant. The original poster recommends these treatments for better results.

Exosome treatment for hair loss, derived from umbilical cord stem cells, is being considered as an option before a hair transplant. Users discuss the need for ongoing maintenance and share experiences with different exosome sources, including plant-derived options.

Transplanting mice skin to humans is not feasible due to immune rejection, but some suggest genetic modification or immune suppression could make it possible. Xenograft hair transplants are discouraged.

RepliCel has purchased Trichoscience, and they have a video about hair multiplication. The conversation also mentions treatments like Minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841.

Researchers are working on regenerating hair follicles using stem cells, but a cure for baldness is still years away. Current treatments mentioned include Minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841.

Stem cell therapy may help with hair loss and potentially restore hair color, as shown in mice. Combining minoxidil, finasteride, exercise, and cold showers may stimulate hair follicles.

A user shared their experience with two hair transplants in Istanbul, highlighting the importance of choosing clinics with a low doctor-to-patient ratio, ISHRS membership, thorough consultations, and reliable aftercare. They emphasized the significance of PRP shots post-procedure and advised careful selection of clinics, especially for crown procedures, due to limited donor area opportunities.

A user applied the 8T3 product for hair loss, targeting LPP and AGA, and plans to update on its effectiveness. The product uses a saline buffered phosphate vehicle, suitable for those intolerant to ethanolic vehicles.

Stem cell and PRP therapy for hair loss is considered experimental and not consistently effective. Treatments like finasteride, minoxidil, and hair transplants are more established, but the potential for cloning chemically resistant hair follicles is seen as a promising future solution.

A new stem cell therapy shows promise in treating hair loss, but skepticism remains about its availability. Users humorously discuss the effectiveness of treatments on mice compared to humans.

Stem cell hair restoration lacks scientific evidence and is often considered a scam. Effective hair loss treatments include hair transplants, Minoxidil, and Finasteride, but stem cell treatments are not proven.

PP405 and JXL-069 are the same compound, but users experienced no results due to flawed application methods. The topical gel formulation of PP405 is designed to target hair follicle stem cells effectively, unlike liquid solutions that fail to penetrate deeply.

Stemson Therapeutics announced a breakthrough in hair growth technology using stem cells. Users discussed the potential high cost and skepticism about the treatment's accessibility.

Hair cloning claims by Dr. Gho are widely considered a scam, with skepticism about the effectiveness of his hair stem cell transplantation. Users suggest that if it were effective, wealthy individuals would opt for it over traditional methods like FUE transplants.

Verteporfin followed by retinoic acid improves wound regeneration in mini-pigs. Retinoic acid does not significantly enhance regeneration in rabbits.
