This result with “only” 2650 grafts? That’s remarkable.

Ok! could you give me the link of that case you describe of HLC?

I dont know this Feriduni dr you mention but its all about choosing the one that gives you more confidence considering all your personal interests, so if Feriduni is, go for it. Would definitely recommend you to check as much cases of him as you can. Specialy the ones on forums.

 

Good luck!

Sure, check this out. His story sounds like a horror movie. Poor guy.

If you have just a few donnor reserves I would definitely recommend you Couto. He gets with 3k what others do with 4,5k grafts. I dont get how he does it but the cases are just there. In my case I called on January 2021 once they opened lines and I got first appointment on october 2022, surgery on october 2023. The reason for the waiting this much is because back then the woman that managed the appintments was out, they told me I would receive the pdf budget on my mail soon but apparently they put bad my email so I had to write them about 3 weeks later saying I still didnt receive anything. They apologyzed and gave me for october instead of june, which would have been my estimated date. Personaly I didnt have a problem with that because I also wanted to enjoy my summer at the beach so it was ok for me.

I recommend you to call (not email) on January 2nd until they answer and you get answer and then book appointment. You can say you are available if any cancelation comes up, and they will take that in count although you won't be the only one.

Definitely I dont recomend hlc for 2 reasons: one is my personal experience and other is that I see they take too many grafts. There are cases of nw1 or nw2 where I have seen them taking 2,5k grafts and by looking Couto's cases i would estimate Couto would have need half of it. And your donnor is running out so definitely something to consider.

 

Other options could be Bruno Pinto in Portugal and Zira clinic or Cotellessa &  Awada clinic in Valencia. But personaly I would wait longer and save more cash for Couto without a doubt.

Thanks a lot for your detailed response. Much appreciated. In the meantime I read other postings about HLC. There is one dude in this forum who just recently went there. He got screwed over entirely. Took out 6k grafts and it looks awful. You gut lucky I think when you did your previous one there. It could’ve been much worse. 
 

I will definitely consider what you said and get in contact with those names. I will also contact Feriduni. I saw pretty impressive repair work from him. 

Can I ask how long you had to wait until you got your appointment for the surgery with Couto? And perhaps I missed it, but when was your surgery at HLC again? I’m a repair case with previously botched surgeries. I reached out to HLC and their response was that my Donor wouldn’t serve sufficient grafts so they would’ve to tap my beard. Since I don’t have many shots left I am trying to get as many opinions as possible before I make a move. From what I see Bruno Ferreira is also good one. Unfortunately it is nearly impossible to get a consultation with him, let a lone an appointment for a surgery. Others such as Bisanga (or rather his agent) dismissed my case as not being suitable for further surgeries which I found strange. 

Hi Anthropos, I think your results look excellent. I don’t see anything to complain about. Probably you‘re just being too fussy about it. 
 

Can I please ask you how long did you have to wait for the consultation and then for the actual appointment to get the surgery. I was put on his waiting list for consultation 2 months ago but radio silence since then. 
 

Thanks a lot.
