  1. Hey all, currently at the 5 week mark! Feeling awful but optimistic about the results. I know this is the ugly duckling stage. Struggling to cope with how I look in the mirror right now 😩
  2. Was a lovely 4 days in Madrid I can’t lie, on the fourth day they invited me back for lunch before I flew home made me feel really welcome. I’m at the awful phase right now, can’t bare to look at myself in the mirror but just hoping for the best in the long run! Waiting for these new hairs to sprout
  3. I don’t unfortunately I was addicted to Toppik! In one year I will have my pictures from the clinic on a post which will be the best I can do. This is my current donor today one month after procedure. Hoping it continues to fill out
  4. It’s one thing I found concerning. I’m English, but the men on my mothers side are Mediterranean with dark full heads of hair hair and my fathers side are bald with fair hair. I guess I had a mix of both. I did meet one patient on my last day who was there for his yearly check in. I see his pre op pictures and he was pretty much completely bald however he looked like Tarzan when I saw him. I guess it depends on your surgeon
  5. I contacted him initially in 2019. I was told to jump on Fin for a year minimum before he would consider. Arranged the appointment in 2020 for 2022. So in all it was around 3 years but from what I’ve seen so far I’m glad I waited. I considered Turkey but I was so worried about getting a hair mill by accident. If you have the patience I would recommend contacting them on Instagram first!
  6. I’m from London, but speak basic Spanish. He and his fellow doctors speak English but some of the nurses don’t so we had to communicate in Spanish. He completed all the work himself, he’s a perfectionist and it took 3 days to complete. Have no complaints at all about the experience just looking forward to the results
  7. Hello all. I was fortunate enough to get an appointment with Dr Couto and I’m now one month post transplant. I know sometimes his Instagram results seem unbelievable however I am more than happy to share mine. I am currently one month in and the shedding phase has well and truly started. I will continue to add to this post monthly. All photos are taken at weekly intervals. 2700 grafts for frontal/mid scalp. Returning next year for 1500 grafts to cover the crown. Any questions please just let me know. S
