Could never understand Star Trek, The Next Generation. They could heal a severed spinal cord with a waive a flashlight type device and change a humans facial appearance to a face of a alien and then back again in less than 15 minutes but could not cure Piccards baldness.

You know, I’d guess that there are at least a million ailments that should be tackled before the scientist concern themselves with baldness.

Let me see if I have this right .... it worked in the laboratory with mice ... so I need to decide whether to remain bald or to grow mouse hair on my head ?

Then again, the previous generation was able to solve William Shatner’s issues. Hmmm, maybe this conundrum is related to that fact that it was A F***ING TV SHOW!

I’ve been as bald as Picard since I was 23. It’d be interesting to have hair again.

I’m not sure that FrogDad would partake, but our daughter sure as hell would.

She just turned 43 and has been getting thinner on top for about 5 years, now.

My mother and grandmother both have/had very thin hair, too. Fortunately, mine is still thick.

Women would be big time users of this procedure!

“The years passed, mankind became stupider at a frightening rate. Some had high hopes the genetic engineering would correct this trend in evolution, but sadly the greatest minds and resources where focused on conquering hair loss and prolonging erections.” - Idiocracy

Patrick Stewart was asked about this on a talk show, way back when. he said that in the 25th century, people had come to not care about whether or not someone was bald.

if this wasn't the case, and we as a society had advanced to the point where we could transform any such things... all women would be walking around with trout pout, p0rn boobs, kardashian-butts, and rail thin. men would be 6 feet tall, thick afro's, 2% body fat, and 12" ... err.. well, you get the point.

of course, the people that would do that would be sexual beings with little to no intellectual capacity.

If they can genetically cure loss of hair , they should be able to genetically cure Homosexualism.

LMAO I bet the fruits will go nuts if that happened.

Do they have anything that will induce baldness for the ears, nose, and back?

Oh, that ~ readily explained. 40 years earlier Piccard went to the doc and said “Doc you gotta help me. I”m out there in space all the time, and visiting aliens and such, and I feel inadequate. Give me the largest one in Alpha Quadrant’, and so that’s what the Doc did, but with an adjustment allowing DUAL PURPOSE so he could walk!

Only jug-eared men need a lot of hair on their heads.

I’d be more exicted if they could cure liberalness in 2 years.

As a woman, I cannot understand why you guys get all bent out of shape about baldness. It has no, repeat, NO effect on your attractiveness. Most women over thirty are not turned off by it. I wish you would all relax. It’s not a matter of “we love you anyway” i a pitying way, but of “we think you’re hot even if without hair on your head.” Seriously. Not just saying it; it’s true. Fussing with hair is a feminine trait so you don’t seem as sexy if you’re all upset and worried and regretful about whatever is or is not growing on your head. Stop.

Yeah, they'll cure your baldness alright, but they'll also mess up your genes. You'll have a full head of hair, but end up looking like this.

I always understood it to be that if you cured baldness, you held the keys to restoring lost hearing.. I wonder if this is true?

Can we do this in reverse? If I never had to shave my legs again, I’d be really happy.

I would love to have long blonde hair again and have people yell “Get a haircut, hippy!”

This treatment is for Androgenic Alopecia. Patrick Stewart does not suffer from this, most common form of hairloss, but rather from the auto-immune condition Alopecia Areata with the rather rare reverse ophiasis pattern. TFG B2 suppression is probably more effective there.
