First, the 12-yo in me wants to say: heh he said PP.

Next, the adult in me wants to know if this, like Rogaine, is something you’ll have to take for the rest of your life, and be expensive? Or is this an actual cure, as in you take it and viola you’re cured; no more treatments?

My guess that if it was an actual cure with a handful of treatments only required, it will be either too expensive for even well off individuals or be made into a longer drawn out regime to eek out as much money as possible.

Even if it is some miracle breakthrough, most people wouldn’t see benefits of it for 20 years.

Cures aren't profitable. Stretching out temporary treatments over a lifetime is worth millions.

I love that the typo of eek in there works just as well as the eke intended. Sometimes autocorrect can be entertaining

lol, yeah I didn’t even notice.

Honestly think it’s time to purge my phones dictionary for saved words because for some reason it’s saved blatantly incorrectly spelled words and will sometimes auto correct to them… this was not the case but yeah, leaving it

Since it’s applied as a topical I’d like to guess they won’t make it toooo ridiculously priced compared to putting implants into each hair follicle
