I think although you already had some hair in some transplanted areas (excluding zones 1 and 2), regarding the extent to which grafts were placed and the fact you just used 3500 your result is nothing short of phenomenal.

Looking great! Nice hairstyle choice as well.

Any Updates? Hope you're doing well

Any updates? i´m scheduled for january 2023 and i`m really looking forward to hearing about your recovery. Did you get an estimate of the density per square cm ? Thanks!

Nailed it already and still more to go...great result!

Fun fact: "Verte por fin" in spanish means something like "finally getting to see you" or "seeing you at last" ...

Update?

fantastic result

I'm not so sure it's such a large number of grafts for the area covered. I think the post op pics are a bit more revealing of the situation. The front and mid scalp were addressed with 4800 grafts and probably will be a one and done pass. Most patients require a touch up in the hairline and further back or even a second pass to achieve decent coverage. I also think that the OP was closer to a NW 4 than a NW 3. I still feel the number of grafts is on the high side but i would consider it a success if the results ended in a 1 and done procedure. Regarding Couto, Freitas, Eugenix etc i've seen them work wonders with a cansiderably lower number, yes. However sometimes i feel the results are a little misleading regarding lighting and may lead to false expectations / misleading judgment. Still, the results are amongst the best in the industry. Just my two cents, Saludos!

Any Updates?

I don't want to speak for the doctor, however i recall him saying in the interviews posted in the forum that verteporfin had to be used immediately after extracting the graft to work properly. That was the protocol being tested.

Vic, Melvin thank you both for your replies
