First of all, thanks SO SO much for such an interesting post. It´s great to see all that info together 🤗 However, a piece of advice... I think you should UPDATE some of the data on that file of yours since you are providing some really sensitive information which could mislead people. You are stating that Dr. Freitas and Dr. Couto DONT do the implanting themselves and this work is done by their Techs... Where did you get that info? I know almost 99% for sure that Dr. Couto does ALL the implanting. And with Dr Freitas results I would also assume that he does the implanting himself. At least, I never saw on the Spanish Forum (the original Forum "Recuperar EL Pelo") someone saying he wasn't doing the implanting. Also, I have noticed you are using just EUROS on your File... it's not the same 13 Dollars or 13 Euros ... for example, Konior does charge in dollars. If it was in Euros it would mean that he charges 15.4$ per Graft which would be totally insane... 13 dollars is already ridiculous 😵 Thanks again for your contribution!

Spanish Forums I think we should clarify something about the Spanish Forums as you seem to be mixing both and this could confuse people depending on which one of your posts they read. There is the FAMOUS and most renowned Spanish Forum, "Recuperar EL Pelo", where by the way, Freitas and Couto are the doctors who all are praising and all want to go for... This Forum has been around for a bit more than 14 years (created in 2006) And then there is the new forum (created in 2018) a COPY of the Famous one and using almost the same name: "Recuperar TU Pelo". It is said about this Copy Forum that was created by Dr Bruno Pinto´s "team" (it's just a rumor but you all know when there is a rumor... ). And just a number comparing these two Forums, the Famous Spanish Forum, "Recuperar El Pelo" has over 60.000 "Topics" compared to just over 500 "Topics" on the "Copy Forum". By the way, just on the 1st page of "Particular Cases" (on the Famous Forum "Recuperar EL Pelo") you have 5 Freitas cases!

The design looks perfect and the treatment of the donor area is outstanding... Will be following your updates. Thanks for sharing ; )

Love it! Great result with a really nice natural hairline. And the donor is looking amazing, like nothing was taken from there. Congratulations ; )

Was looking promising at 5 months... how is that going now?

I like Wesley´s, really subtle one and looks great on him! I remember trying to find out who did it but couldnt find the clinic. Ufff, poor Rooney ... I think he has had 2 already ... so hopefully his final one is the good one.

Wow!!! I´m a footballer fan and I always thought Conte´s was a wig... He recently had an incident in the Europa´s League final when one of Sevilla´s players during an argument on the sidelines, told him that he was wearing a wig : (( Nice to hear it is a hair transplant, really nice one : )

Hey Melvin, Diego López is certainly quite impressive! If you have Instagram I suggest you check his profile where you can see a lot of photos of his new look https://www.instagram.com/diegolopezofficial As what I said about Nadal, it´s more than rumors that Diego López had his HT with Dr Couto... At least, it´s being talked in different posts within a really well-known Spanish Forum ... also, if you Google "Diego Lopez injerto Dr Couto" on the 2nd result entry you would see that even a Forum admin confirms this fact ... but again, all these are rumors and neither FUExpert Clinic or Diego Lopez have ever confirmed this ... wish this "news" could be public and then we could know for sure these facts since it would help us to evaluate results on famous people... the good results and the not so good ones as the Nadal´s one for example... And yet another famous Spanish footballer, David Silva, playing his last years in Mancherter City and the Spanish National team ... also rumored that he had his hair transplant done by Dr Couto ... (and sorry that this is not a NW IV but it´s a famous character as someone suggested were Couto´s main patients)

+1000 Totally with you. You have all the money in the world and you should have the BEST researchers on such an important matter in your life and... you dont pick one of the best surgeons?!?!? I´m sure Nadal has never visited this Forum or any other Forum in Spain. Now, we see how important Forums are and how great it is to have clinics and patients showing results and experiences.

Really subtle new hairline! Love how natural it looks and the temples touch, TOP!!! Congratulations ; )

Ohhh yeahhh!! Ahmeda, what a change! And it was not easy to cover all that ... with those grafts! And the hairline, in my opinion looks good enough... maybe a touch-up in a couple of years but for now, your new look is TOP! Enjoy!!! Congratulations bro ; )

Wow!!! Just amazing... what a AMAZING change!!! TOP result : ) Super congratulations!!!

Hello baaloss, First, thanks for sharing your experience. I see a little change but it´s for sure you are having a slow growth... but do not worry, many are like this and after the 6 month until the 1 year post-op, boom, all those grafts get there... Also, those photos and really good since you show the worst look... nobody will look at you from up there. Be patient and wish u the best ; )

Woww!!! What a complicated procedure and... what a fantastic NEW LOOK! Love it! And you still have a few more months to improve!!! Many thanks for sharing your experience and your evolution... cant wait to see the 12 months photos!!! Best ; )

Rafa Nadal result...

Rumors are that Nadal, the tennis player, went to a renown clinic called "Clinica Menorca" in Madrid (a Clinic attended by famous people) which in my opinion was a poor choice. The problem I see is that Nadal himself didnt do the research and had somebody else pick the clinic when this is such an important decision... Another famous footballer fixed by Dr Couto is Diego Lopez. In his prime he used to play for Real Madrid, Milan and the Spanish National team ...

This is a very interesting Post. I think you have taken the best decision, try Finas for 6 months and then see and decide... But I´m with some of the people suggesting to focus on the front. That´s the most important and what all will look at... the crown well... and when you are 60 it may even be fine to have a low density over it. Will be waiting for your update! Best of luck!

That looks really nice man. Cant wait to see the evolution. Why did you choose FUT over FUE? Best of luck!

That´s looking great man. You are right that if pay pay close attention at details your left side is weaker than your right side but... you see that, many wont even notice it!!! And at this stage, wow, the evolution is amazing. Just look at the BEFORE pictures and compare... what a change! Will be waiting for updates! Thanks for sharing realistic pictures which is so important for all of us the community. Best!

I guess you might be right... famous footballers and high profile patients should be most of his patients since there are not that many actual patient reviews around... but I dont see all those famous people posting their cases on Forums... I would presume they want it to be a secret 🤫 However, there are exceptions. I have followed Dr Couto (and all Spain-Europe based Doctors) for a long time and certainly he has done several famous footballers, at least I´m almost certain about 4 of them from what I have read on different Forums (but I´m sure there should be a lot more than 4) For example, Javier Farinos, had his HT several years ago. This footballer didnt care his procedure was public and even took a photo with Dr Couto ... he posted his process on an online Spanish Foro "Foro Recuperar el Pelo". And the result, well, just see for yourselves: Video - Before Hair transplant with Dr Juan Couto at FUExpert Clinic https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iA2WQQ9t5gI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iA2WQQ9t5gI Video - After Hair Transplant with Dr Juan Couto att FUExpert Clinic https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7eod0qj2oGQ&t=25s

Yeah, I think the same, Couto is a Top doctor (I will finally have my consult with him in October if the Covid situation doesnt send us all back to confinement again). Also, Freitas has been showing quite amazing results for a long long time now. If I were you I would try, at least, to get an online consult with them to see what they have to say. You wouldnt lose anything and who knows... And you even have Lorenzo!!! All of them have many cases posted on (Foro Recuperar el Pelo) On the other hand, I totally get that you prefer one of those other Doctors who have shown more actual patient reviews, it´s the way to play it safe even if you do not get such an amazing result at the end. Have you had consults with any of those Doctors? Have they told you about the BHT option? How many beard grafts could they harvest? And if I had to choose one I would go with Eugenix clinic, in my opinion, is the best of those 3 you mentioned. Thanks again for your reply and for sharing all that great content not just here but also through those nice videos! Wish more people would expose their results as you do it with yours. Best ; )

Looking great! Clean and beautiful design. Will take a close look at your evolution. Thanks for sharing ; )

Melvin!! You looking amazing bro. That hairline of yours it TOP!!! The donor also looking great, maybe just a little depleted on the left side from what I have watched at the video? But it´s amazing you sill have up to 1500. And if you go for BHT... you could have easily another 1500-2000 since your beard looks to have great density... Havent you consider Dr Freitas or Dr Couto in Spain? Both have amazing results and they both do BHT... I´m sure they would easily close that crown of yours. Thanks again for your great post and sharing your daily routines! : )

This was surely a really complicated case... and it turned out TOP result! And the donor area is what impresses me the most, so carefully managed that it looks amazing even at that short cut!!! Congratulations H&W on another super result : )

Great result here HDC!! Beautifully done. That hairline looks awesome, what a change from the before look : )
