Of course you don’t understand Roger’s criticism - you’re an idiot so of course you don’t understand things. There is some reason to believe that the treatment may be valid but there are also major reasons to be skeptical.
The unknown poster who first reported the info was a brand new poster, who came out of left field with a pretty ludicrous story about how his hair dresser released private information to him about a hair loss cure. That poster is now gone. Almost all of the posters who are releasing info about Pillox are new posters. Even Brunobald is a brand new poster. The newness of the posters/messengers alone is enough to raise red flags.
Roger’s criticisms are exactly the concerns any reasonable person would have. What is your problem dude? The kinds of questions Roger raises are exactly the kind of questions one should be raising.
To hear you tell it people should not express doubts about Pillox and so tell us exactly why it is that people should not raise doubts about Pillox even as you yourself express that you haven’t made up your own mind about Pillox?
And what exactly is your plan to get better info about Pillox moron?
[quote]I dont quite understand your criticism roger.
Firstly, the unknown poster who disappeared was merely the messenger, people who are interested in this treatment are interested because it appears that there is actual merit to what the poster said. Not because of his credence as a respected forum member.
Also, in regard to the effectiveness of the treatment, of course these will be hand-picked best responders. All companies from Propecia over Histogen to Aderans will always will show you their creme de la creme. While this may be something to keep in mind when assessing one’s own expectations, it is not really out of the ordinary. The fact is that even if these are the best responders, they are still much better than many other of the mentioned treatments.
Anyway, I reserve my position toward pilox as the information that we have is so sparse passing any kind of judgment at this point seems highly speculative.

We don’t know for sure that those photos really represent Pilox results. All we have it is someone (a poster who’s apparently disappeared or been banned from another website) telling us that his hairdresser said that. So it’s double hearsay. The word of a person we don’t know and have no reason to trust, quoting another person we don’t know.
And that’s not even getting into any questions about the inherent effectiveness of the treatment, proving any claims (we don’t even know what, exactly, the claims are), or, assuming they’ve done extensive testing (a big assumption) proving that the photos we’ve seen aren’t just the 1% cream-of-the-crop cherry-picked results out of a vast majority of poor or mediocre responders.
