Hi, Thank you all for your comments. @ BjornBorg, no, not Ivan Rakitic, hehe ☺️. As said, this patient was monitored by Dr. Alcaide during 3 years before the surgery. He was under medication and there were no signs of miniaturized hair / retrograde alopecia during those years and of course at the moment of the surgery. What can happen in the future? That is a question which can be asked to any single patient, but from our side we always try to manage donor area in the best possible way getting grafts only from the safe zone, after a detailed exam of the area. Kind regards,

Hi, Here you can watch a VIDEO with the result of this patient: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y4nCxfH99qc Kind regards,

Thank you for your comments baldlivesmatter. Kind regards,

Hi delancey, Thanks for your comments. I understand that those follicles around the ear were fine for the procedure, and not everyone has to develop a retrograde alopecia. Also the amount of grafts extracted there was relatively small. Kind regards,

Hi, This patient contacted us at his early 20s asking for a hair transplant. At that moment Dr. Alcaide advised him to wait and start the use of medication for hair loss. After 3 years, and with good results using finasteride 1mg., we proposed a surgery using 1800 FU to restore the hair line and temples, but being conservative at the same time thinking of possible loss in the future. Here the data: Dr. Antonio ALCAIDE BHR Clinic Spain Age: 25 Technique: FUE Medication: Finasteride before-after the procedure Hair Caliber: Medium Previous procedures: No Total FU used:- 1809 * FU breakdown:- 1s 522 2s 852 3s 430 TOTAL: 1809 That means 1809 FU = 3526 Hairs. Average = 1,95 hairs/FU. Pictures show the result at 8 months. Pre-Post Surgery 4 Months 8 Months Comparison 0-8 Months

Hi Jamothee, Apologies for the delay. As said that 2nd patient had very fine hair, but the main aspect on that case is that he has an advanced pattern of loss. In fact he had a 2nd surgery a few months ago to improve coverage behind that area and mid section. That is one of the reasons why we were not aggressive on the hair line in terms of numbers of graft. We used around 2000 if I am not wrong. I personally have spoken to him and he was very pleased with the result and no intention to add density but improve coverage behind that area. My goal with that picture was basically to show some examples of patients with fine hair (I did not also explain that specific patient had a previous FUE procedure on crown on another clinic, so donor area was already limited). Kind regards,

Hi, This is a new case from Dr. Alcaide. The patient came to rebuild the hair line and temples searching for a natural look according his age and characteristics. In order to achieve his goal, Dr. Alcaide used 1815 FUE grafts. Here the data: Dr. Antonio ALCAIDE BHR Clinic Spain Age: 40 Technique: FUE Medication: No Hair Caliber: medium-coarse, slightly wavy Previous procedures: No Total FU used:- 1815 * FU breakdown:- 1s 530 2s 1038 3s 247 TOTAL: 1815 That means 1815 FU = 3347 Hairs. Average = 1,84 hairs/FU. Pictures show the result at 12 months. Pre-Post Surgery 12 Months Comparison 0-12 Months

Hi home1212 / Raker, Thank you very much for your comments. Kind regards,

Dear forum members, Thank you very much for the confidence on Dr. Alcaide's work. We are very pleased to be part of the Hair Transplant Network. We are preparing new cases to show the results achieved by Dr. Alcaide in our clinic in Málaga - Spain. I take advantage of this post to inform that our FUE rates are between 2,70-2,85 Euros, and 2,50-2 Euros on FUT procedures. We are at your total disposal if you have any question. Kind regards and Best Wishes for the New Year.

Hi, JeanLDD is mentioning a very valid point. Hair characteristics can make a big difference in terms of the result achieved. Spanish hair can be a little thicker compared to other patients, but if you compare it with other nationalities, it may be thinner. That said, Dr. Alcaide also treats patients with very fine hair, like these 2 examples (specially the 2nd one). Kind regards,

Hi, Thank you very much for the comments. Dr. Alcaide can also rebuild temporals, but we don't have many patients who request it. But when we are asked about it, Dr. Alcaide can provide it like this case. Kind regards,

Thank you very much for your comments, Hairlosscpa. Kind regards,

Hi BjornBorg, HarryHonolulu, Thank you very much for the comments. Yes, the patient had a good donor and it was a small case in terms of area to cover. So he still has available grafts if he loses more hair in the future. Kind regards,

Hi, This patient wanted to treat hair line and crown in the same procedure. Taking into account his donor characteristics, Dr. Alcaide proposed a conservative hair line design so he could use more grafts in the crown to improve the coverage. The images show the result at 7 months so we expect more yield in the next months. Here the data: Dr. Antonio ALCAIDE BHR Clinic Spain Age: 39 Technique: FUE Medication: Finasteride Hair Caliber: Fine Previous procedures: No Total FU used:- 2756 * FU breakdown:- 1s 451 2s 1865 3s 440 TOTAL: 2756 That means 2756 FU = 5501 Hairs.

Hi, This is another crown restoration made by Dr. Alcaide from BHR Clinic. Pictures show the result at 10 months so we expect some evolution and improvement in the next months.

Hi Bill, Thank you very much from your comments. Dr. Alcaide usually places an average density of 40-50 FUs/cm2 on the 1st cm. approx. of the hair line using single grafts, and then it drops to 30-35 FUs/cm2. That said, maybe in this specific case the density placed was a little below average due to the thickness of the patient's hair. Kind regards,

Thank you very much for your comment, Melvin. Much appreciated. Kind regards,
