Yes you are 100% correct. I emailed them and the doctor mentioned its completely normal however i will bring it up again when i go in few days their guaranteed growth is 90% however this is definitely lower than 90%

Yes , im on fin and min since two years i asked and i forgot what the dr told me i will ask him again for round 2 and obviously as i mentioned the growth is 90% for their hair transplant

Yes , and they mentioned its normal , but im booked with him for my 2nd procedure and i will definitely bring this up

I will be honest, im not happy with the growth in the frontal region. Im in love with the hair line however as dr bruno guarantees 90% of the growth i dont think its a bad outcome however i wont say im happy. I have to be honest with myself and everybody else.

The first one is taken outside not the best because its cloudy outside and second two are taken under harsh lighting dr bruno ferriera’s guarantee’s his hair transplant of 90% growth as well however in my opinion im slightly behind due to the midscalp

Thats exactly why i went to dr bruno to get the natural hairline and i was not disappointed however the frontal region growth kind of makes me think about my growth and i have added more pics

Yes i have posted as thats exactly what i wasnt so sure about so had to come on here

Full 1 year result. Pics taken on 15th of september 2023 i’d be greatful for your honest input

One of the biggest factors that played in for me choosing dr ferriera was that he does everything himself plus his results are solid as well ass my surgery was split into two days 21st and 22nd september 2022. I decided to document my HT after a whole year ARRIVAL I stayed in espinho and it was quite warm. The walk from the hotel to the clinic was around 15 mins which was good as i hardly go for a run back home. I done the blood tests done in the UK through NHS ( for free ) so saved me some money. The hotel i chose had a takesaway right next to my hotel which was very convenient SURGERY DAY Arrival was 7am sharp and i have never been on time for anything in my life except on 21st of september i was right at the door at 7am and dr ferrieras assistant welcomed me and asked if i had ate anything and i said no. He then came with a juice and some cookies the assitants were amazing with everything. Ricardo went above and beyond even though i couldn’t understand a word they were saying but i could tell they were happy and the room had a really good vibe After getting into my surgery gown dr ferriera came in and we spoke about what i wanted and then he took me into another room for pics and for the hairline design. he spent few mins drawing the hairline and asked if im happy and he kept re-drawing until i was happy we also decided to lower the hair line centre point by 1cm. after getting the design done i was taken into the operating room where the assistant gave me meds before the surgery and checked my blood pressure. The local anesthesia felt strange as it was my first time ever however dr bruno told me we will top it up as soon as it runs out or if you feel anything. The clinic was top notch , could tell you had to spend alot of money to get anything done in here i had my own lounge/room where i could take lunch breaks there was a screen next to the bed that had real time info like how many grafts hairs and a picture of my hair pre op. as soon as the surgery started i fell asleep which made time go quicker and when i woke up it was lunch time in the menu they had alot of things however due to only eating halal i went for fish , potatoes with some soup which was amazing On the first day 1554 grafts were implanted At the end of the first day which i finished around 17:00/17:30 and before leaving i got goodies from the clinic which included aloe vera gel saline spray and was told to spray saline every hour or so. I had carried an umbrella with me to save myself from the sun as it was still sunny in espinho in september and yes people did look but i’d rather care about what is best for me i was on oral finasteride and topical minox atleast a year before my hair transplant so it made my donor area very solid. Day 2 Arrived at the clinic around 7am and was welcomed by ricardo. He took me to the lounge where i got changed and was waiting for the doctor as i was told he is slightly late. Fast forward doctor arrives and i was taken into the operating room to get my blood pressure done and the medication before i lay down. surgery began and then lunch time again i ordered fish , potatoes with some soup and then back to the surgery. We concluded the surgery with a total of 3173 grafts which was done by around 16:30. Before i left the clinic i got few goodies again which was saline spray aloe vera gel to put on the sides where grafts were extracted from and a neck pillow After flying home dr bruno and his team did not disappoint it was like im still in espinho or they flew with me because they were constantly in touch asking to send it photos or i’ll send them photos anytime i had a question with a response in no time. now im booked for my second surgery with dr bruno ferriera for the 12th and the 13th of october and will update on here with a 2nd topic

Hey , yes adding everything

SURGERY DAY Dr bruno ferrieras assistants were phenomenal very polite and accomodating. Took few pics and then drew the hair line i was on oral finasteride and topical minox atleast a year before my hair transplant so it made my donor area very solid. I have attached few pics

Hi , Bruno Ferriera 3173 grafts 30 years old FUE NW 5a 1mg Fin EOD 2.5mg Oral minox daily Been lurking on this forum for a year or so and have been researching beforehand. i started balding early i’d say around 27. At first it the usual balding as in few hair on pillow , and few hair in shower, however almost two years ago my hair fall picked up very quickly. From seeing few hair on my pillow when waking up to a whole bunch as well as in the shower. Looking back and realising how far i have come. i wish i had known about finasteride when i was balding. I got on finasteride quite late when my hairloss got really bad i will add the first pics i took to send to dr ferrieras assitant alexandra at that time

Are you from the UK and if so , how do i go about finding a dermatologist who prescribes oral minox ?
