A Japanese wig making company bought Bosley Medical because they were afraid that future medical advances would wipe out the wig industry. They decided to benefit from this possible trend instead of suffering from it.

Bosley Medical may have gained a bad rep on this board but I hear that they are now spending a lot of money on research.


Read about a mascot mouse named Harry on the second page of this article in Wired Magazine

Now read this article

http://www.cambridgegateway.com/news...icx_bosley.htm

Finally read this article

It sounds very possible that a cure might be just a few years away.

Cheers,

B

Great research and great reading, IB.

One of our recommended physicians, Dr. Jerry Cooley, is conducting research with Intercytex on hair multiplication techniques.

He was also the physician that performed my hair transplant procedure. You can see my results here.

Hello everybody, this is actually my first post on this forum because so far I've just been reading through almost all the stories here... there's really alot of useful information to find! Great!

Well, anyways, I just stumbled across a very interesting and exciting piece of news from Intercytex (the company Robert named 2 posts above)and I thought you might find that one intersting. Looks like we might finally have something in the line . At least it sounds promising...they plan to start Phase III trials as early as 2007!

Always great to hear someone likes the content of the forums!

Does this mean that we need to put up a Parental Advisory warning now?

This is awesome, do we wait or get a hair transplant in the meantime? I hate this!
