  1. So knowing that genetics and dht play a massive role in native hair loss what plays a role in donor hair or transplanted hair from safe zone? Like dht isn’t as big of a culprit for hair loss of donor hair so is anything a potential culprit to losing transplanted hair years down the line? Maybe chemotherapy or genetics or dandruff? Just curious what factors could lead to hair loss of transplanted hair that was taken from the safe donor zone? Thank you

    Wow it looks really good how many grafts they used to cover that! I really think this will be a good result! Please continue to update monthly because sometimes awesome cases like yours stop updating after 3-4 months. I really think you will be pleased a year from now. But crazy how much area they filled in and how well it appears they did it. 

  3. Some redness in the donor. Good to know doctor Zarev is human lol I’ve seen so many cases of his where the donor didn’t even look like it was extracted from. Good to see a case on here that I think will be a homerun when said and done. I’ll be interested to see what your donor looks like a couple months from now. His ability to make the donor look untouched months later is supernatural. Keep us updated on that!

    I would only do it as a high NW and then get the maximum out of it (4.000-6.000 Grafts). This is just my opinion, in smaller cases I would not take the risk of FUT.

    I’ve seen some good cases from Konior and wong where the strip couldn’t even be seen at a 3 guard. I think fut in the right hands can still be worth it

    I’m always scouting for new doctors. Dr. Pittella was virtually unknown when I discovered him in Brazil. I would be curious to find some doctors from South Korea. 

    Exactly. I’d love to hear about more Dr Pittella type doctors. He is world class. South Korea seems to be a massive cosmetic market so I’m sure some hidden gems exist there. Dr Freia in Singapore I’ve heard good things on but limited results online.

    I started a similar topic years ago, with many of the name’s already added. I would agree Dr. Cuoto and Dr. Ferreira are excellent surgeons. I would say Dr. Pinto is another great surgeon. I’ve heard good things about Dr. Heitmann, but I haven’t seen any reviews yet for him here. As for Dr. Leal, his work looks incredible, but seems he isn’t a feasible option now, if he isn’t taking new patients. 

    Yes I agree with that list. Just curious if anyone on this site has any names that they may know from there country or browsing the web that seem promising but really haven’t gained much of a following yet. I think in a couple years some new names are going to join the scene and I’d love to learn some unknown names now.

    You’ve misunderstood what i said i think. 
     

    The depth is decided by the hand movement of the surgeon. If you use a 0.7 punch and go 4 mm deep, the wound is bigger then when using a 0.8 and you go 1.5 mm deep. Hope this clarifies more. 

    Sorry Doctor thanks for clarifying. Also I, including many on this site, have been very impressed with your work. You have put yourself into the list of the top surgeons in the world. Consistent homerun results after homerun!

    Size is one factor to consider, but in my opinion, depth is more crucial. If you maintain a size of 0.8 or lower, scarring is minimal. However, if you make the punchhole one millimeter deeper, the wound surface will significantly increase. The deeper the wound, the greater the likelihood of scarring.

     

    Very interesting. So depth is greater with smaller punch size but depth is less with a bigger punch? Or is there a sweet spot of maybe .8mm with less depth that is common practice at top clinics like your own?

    We conducted a trial using the WAW, trivellini, and our own simple device. We found no significant difference in transection rate, healing, or scarring. Ultimately, it is more important for the surgeon to be comfortable with the device they are using. 

    Does it ultimately come down to punch size for scarring? Lower punches less scarring? But isn’t too low of punch size equal damaging of the grafts/tea section rate? Is there an ideal size mm wise?
