FUE by HLC Ankara | 4261 Grafts | Nov 7, 2020
mustang replied to MachoVato's topic in Hair Transplant Reviews
I had a 1.800 graft surgery with HLC with 2 friends. I went to Ankara a couple of times We all had a great result. So will you! -
12 so far my friend and 3 more sessions to go. 300 grafts to the crown, 700 grafts to zone 2 and 3 and probably a last pass of 300-400 BHT into the donor area. After that some SMP my work will be completed. I am very happy with my hair, this journey and everything in between. We all agree it's an obsession but one that gives me great joy every time I look in the mirror. I have enjoyed every surgery

Dr Mwamba had quite a few (amazing) cases of FUT scar repairs with BHT, unfortunately there was a breaking in his Brussels clinic and they took the hard drives and computers. He will never be able to post them so I really hope my case and David's help bring him back to the spotlight a little more. He is a world class surgeon and a pioneer in this field and probably the nicest and most patient Dr I have ever had surgery with. My donor is improving weekly. I can feel many hairs coming out when I touch. I hope all the larger spots can be closed and then get SMP.

Heavy brain fog, as thick as ever Total ED and complete loss of libido Gyno. Removed with surgery Hypogonadism

I had massive sides with their Topical Fin. Worse I have ever had. Topical Dutasteride is a much safer and way more effective alternative.

You lack density but a second pass of 500-750 grafts would certainly fix it.
-
Yes, triquim and temple points. Virgin areas with 100% growth. The problem was we didn't use enough grafts, I needed at least another 750 to achieve full density in the frontal third thus my results were good but not incredible. I also had a little over extraction on the right side of my donor which I had to repair with a few BHT grafts so again, not ideal but nothing major. I would recommend Couto to anybody. He is on a different league. All clinics have outstanding cases and some OK or bad cases, even the best ones. Sometimes there is scar tissue, poor blood flow, infection or other factors that prevent full regrowth which has nothing to do with the Dr's skill or protocol. Why I switched so many doctors I have explained already but I will make a full post with all my surgeries when I find the time. My last surgery will probably be with a different doctor as well.

Don't think so I will post mine though

#25 Mustang, May 6, 2020 True but 1 of them had an infection which was unlucky and they did a repair which was successful 1 is unhappy but he is unhappy with all of his surgeries so it's highly subjective My results with Couto were good, not fantastic but good. I have had a lot of work done and it's hard to yield good growth on scar tissue. I still believe the amount of impressive work he has done is undeniable and regardless of my results not being spectacular I would recommend him to anybody

Bisanga has a LOT of experience and used to be a top regarded Doctor. You can't go wrong with him

Correct, many cases presented by Couto himself but there also many (dozens) of patient testimonials if you look well. I myself have 7 acquaintances and 2 friends that have had surgery with him and that's just me. If you live in Spain you would know several people that have had surgery with him but I stand corrected, there are several hundreds of cases shown on the forum, most presented by him and many testimonials by patients. And yes, I do know, I had surgery with him and so did 2 friends. We counted the temple points and triquium post op and at 6 months and guess what? 100% growth. These are small 50 graft areas but it was consistent with all of us. You don't need to knw much about HT to see Freitas patients. They even have videos assessing survival when shaves on NW6 and it was 98% or so. Of course they are not interested in answering questions, they don't need to sell you their service, they have a huge waiting list of 3 years or longer. They basically told you here is the work we do, like it? great, book surgery. Don't like it and have dozens of questions? We don't have the time. Not the ideal world but you have other options. Freitas, Lorenzo, Vila, Mwamba, Meyer, Feriduni, Lupanzula. Any will give you a great results.

There are hundreds (yes, literally hundreds) of reviews on the Spanish forum on Couto. Couto is probably the best FUE surgeon in the world with Freitas. Feriduni is right up there. Lorenzo is on the same podium. He is probably the most knowledgeable of all but in terms of survival rates (practically 100%) on FUE Freitas and Couto are the best.
