  1. wondering how he’s able to achieve so much but I trusted enough of what I saw from videos and reviews to favor going to him up until i decided to book elsewhere. I would probably choose him if schedule worked out lol they referred to him as the hair god in one of the Spanish forums when I was looking 😂
  2. Got it ok thanks, I was wondering if the pressurization or anything could cause me to lose grafts lol. Was also worried they wouldn’t let me on if I’m too swollen.
  3. Are the only dangers of flying home early the possibility of hitting your head while traveling? I intend to fly back the next day just due to having limited time. Lol would they let me into a flight if my head or face gets swollen?
  4. Might be a dumb question but what happens if you get on a plane with swelling? Asking because I plan on leaving back to the US the day after.
  5. Looks good man! I’m heading there in October of next year. Where are you from, and how long did you stay after the surgery? Do you think you would’ve been able to travel the day after the surgery?
  6. I’ve been back and forth between Couto, and de Freitas and after taking some time off from researching I’ve finally decided on de Freitas.
  7. Your progress is looking great Joe! I think you made the right choice for you. Then again I don’t think you could’ve gone wrong with either Dr. I think so too! Both are putting out great results IMO. Dr. De Freitas isnt doing video consults but his staff sent back my assessment. I had a video call with Dr. Cuoto and he’s putting out great results as well and does the whole surgery. Cuoto’s prices are a lot higher but I think the video consult and the fact that he does the whole surgery himself is making the decision harder. Same boat man! I really like De Freitas’s results, it just looks like hairline density is a common theme with all his post op pics and videos. That or it’s just a lot more visible/noticeable in his photos. Not sure how much of a factor that will play in the final results but I think it helps. I have a feeling he’ll probably get my deposit in the end. I was emailing with Tamara. As of mid Feb they were booking for May 2023. That’s after an assessment. Ah! This is where it gets interesting! I really like Ferreira’s work, I’m sure weve all seen Rolandas’s results as well as the ones posted by the forum members and they look great and the ones I’ve seen are progressing nicely. I was actually guilty of almost commuting to the Turkey hair mill route until I saw Rolandas’s videos and wanted to go with Ferreira instead. And that further research led me down the rabbit hole again and onto other doctors like De Freitas and Cuoto. But what are we measuring in terms of “falling short” on? Like for me if I were going off finished results I’m leaning towards De Freitas, haha as to why? I’m not really sure, it just seems like his has a lot of wow factor, not saying the other doctors don’t as they certainly do. Like for Cuoto I’ve noticed he can do a lot without a high number of grafts based on some of his videos! I don’t know if my observation is correct but I do notice he could be a little more conservative on the hairline than Freitas? Or I might just be imagining that. But I really don’t mind him stretching out a 3000 graft operation over 3 days to get things perfect.
  8. Hi Gents, Was hoping to start a convo in hopes of helping me pick a doctor for my HT. I’ve narrowed down my decision to 2, maybe 3 doctors. First is Dr. Cuoto who I just recently had a video consultation with, and quoted me at 3000-3500 grafts (over 3 days) and classified me as a Norwood 5 which is a lot worse than I thought I was lol. The other doctor who I’m leaning towards is Dr. De Freitas who emailed me back my assessment and quoted me at 2700 grafts (over 2 days). I thought I was pretty set on Dr. De Freitas until I had my consult with Dr. Couto and actually have him as an option now. I’m also considering Dr. Ferreira but he’s not taking consultations, and not sure when he’ll open back up. All 3 are releasing amazing final results in their videos, and I feel like I couldn’t really go wrong with any of them. One thing about Dr. Dr Freitas that I’ve noticed that had me leaning towards him is that out of the 3 Doctors post surgery pics on their patients, he seems to have a lot of grafts (more than the other 2) packed into the frontal hairline which is what I really want fixed the most from this HT. I don’t think I’ve seen a hairline from that doesn’t look dense at all. I think I’m still leaning towards Dr. De Freitas right now, but am heavily considering going to Dr. Couto now since I actually got to talk to him and got a really good impression out of our convo, he really comes off as a perfectionist. I believe Dr. Cuoto also does both extractions and implantation which is a big deal to me. Given that all 3 are putting out great results, I was wondering who’s final results do you guys like the most out of the 3? And if you had to go with one of the 3 who would you pick and why? Thanks in advance!
  9. That’s a lot more than what they shared with me thank you Joe, you’re the man!
