Regular Member HTInitiate Posted December 21, 2010 Regular Member Share Posted December 21, 2010 Scientists may have finally discovered a cure for baldness. Yes, snake oil salesmen have been offering spurious "guaranteed" hair-loss treatments for generations, but a professor in Germany, Roland Lauster, may have come up with a fool-proof method — using stem cells. Here, a brief guide: .............................................. Can stem cells cure baldness? - The Week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member Sparky Posted December 22, 2010 Senior Member Share Posted December 22, 2010 Blurry Pictures, shadows in the wrong places, Hubble telescope can't focus on any landing sites, there were particles of fresh glass found in the rocks that they brought back, the cameras at the time were not able to operate at minus 250. NASA is talking about beating the Chinese to the Moon now, didn't we already do that in 1969?. I could go on and on, but this is a disscussion for the off topic section. Have a bit of fun and Google it. My Hairloss Website http://www.hairtransplantnetwork.com/blog/home-page.asp?WebID=2198 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Blake Bloxham Posted December 22, 2010 Senior Member Share Posted December 22, 2010 Guys, As usual, all 'hair loss cure' news is good news because it means research teams are working on the problem. However, as a few others have pointed out, it's always best to utilize proven techniques in the present and remain 'cautiously optimistic' toward future therapies. Let's all hope for the best!

Senior Member Sparky Posted December 22, 2010 Senior Member Share Posted December 22, 2010 I do think that a cure for hair loss may not be warmy welcomed though, because it would means docs would mainly be used for repair work.

Senior Member Tonycc Posted December 22, 2010 Senior Member Share Posted December 22, 2010 was there a timetable for this? I am sure that potential patients would still use FUE and FUT. Do you think that the medications with take a big hit as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Blake Bloxham Posted December 23, 2010 Senior Member Share Posted December 23, 2010 Tony, Keep in mind that absolutely nothing is conclusive in this report. Not only has this feet only been performed in mice (which are good research subjects for human biochemistry, but often the transition is a problem), but there is no scientific paper or even concrete results backing this claim. As the article blatantly states, this is the second time within this year alone that we've been promised a cure. Additionally, keep in mind that any potential application of this in humans is '5 years away.' Again, all research is exciting, but don't let this keep you off proven, effective treatments in the present!

Senior Member gmonasco Posted December 24, 2010 Senior Member Share Posted December 24, 2010 you better believe that we NEVER will see the final cure simply because this industry is making billions from stupid people like us Ah, but this is where capitalism works for you. The companies that market hair loss treatments (not cures) have to share the profit pie; the company that develops a hair loss cure gets to eat the whole pie.
