DERCOS NEOGENIC (Stemoxydine) French clinical Study Results

[yanyan911]

Hey guys, I now there as already been many posts on L'Oreal NEOGENIC, but what I'm bringing you here is a link to an article that i saw yesterday in French Press, and giving much more informations on the product. I don't have time to traduce it all, but I'll give you the most important facts, don't hesitate to ask questions :

The treatment was tested in the SABOURAUD center in Paris, so there is real clinical backup behind the product.
It was a double blind vs placebo study made on 101 men between 18 à 55 years old.

A Stemoxydine 5% solution was applied 1 time a day (6ml), at the end of the 3 months of the trial, there was an increase of 4% in hair density on the patients treated with Stemoxydine, witch represent an average of + 1700 hair.

The product "woke up" hair at places where there was nothing (not even miniaturized hair)

The name of the product will be Dercos NEOGENIC, it will be sold in France from September, and will cost 79,90 € for one month.

Yea guys... i know 4% doesn't seem a lot, but it's still a noticeable cosmetic improvement and it's been long time we didn't see a new PROVEN treatment on the market.

So.. it's not a miracle cure, but still far from being snake oil as some people believed.

I'm sorry, but $100 a month for 4% hair increase is not good. If the hair increase was higher it might be worth checking out, but right now it just looks like overpriced garbage.

4% hair increase is actually a big difference . thats 1000's of news hairs.

Une moyenne de 1700 cheveux = an average of 1700 hair on the 101 men who did the trial, yes not so bad... but damn expensive.
What i really would like to know is if this stuff can "maintain" the hair we have with continued use... unfortunately, I'm not sure about this.
Maybe it just permits more hair to be in anagen phase at the same time (kind of like SOD) , witch will give an impression of "more density" for a limited period, but then hair would fall out again at the same rate.

What i will do guys is apply a double dose on a completely bald area of my temples, so... if this %&$! can "wake up" something, we will know.

[John Yossarian]

The study said that it increased hair density, not hair growth. This might be good for someone with thinning hair, though.

[yanyan911]

More density should mean more hair / cm square. That would be nice.
