Administrators Melvin- Admin Posted January 25, 2022 Author Administrators Share Posted January 25, 2022 Guys, I hear what you guys are saying he does have reviews on Instagram. For example: https://www.instagram.com/p/CTsRiANJqxz/?utm_medium=copy_link I think what you guys have to understand is when we scout for the best surgeons in the world, they may not be known in the forum world. The patients up to this point have all been Brazilian, so English is a difficulty. In my opinion, we clearly have a surgeon that is one of the most talented surgeons I’ve seen. He has enough quality video and comb through to see his results are legitimate. While I agree, patient reviews are always desired. There’s enough evidence in my opinion, to show he’s more than talented and qualified to be recommended. That said, I have asked some of his patients to share their experiences here. I have also asked them to join the discussion. 1 1 I’m a paid admin for Hair Transplant Network. I do not receive any compensation from any clinic. My comments are not medical advice.

Senior Member SLA Posted January 25, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted January 25, 2022 I hear what everyone is saying. From the few examples we have seen, I think most would agree that Dr. Pittella's work is amongst the best, especially in difficult, near impossible cases such as the NW7- poor donor example he posted, which IMHO rivals some of the near impossible cases I have seen from Eugenix. He was also trained by respectable surgeons such as Pitchon and Trivellini and is an MD in plastic surgery and he performs pretty much all the steps in surgery, so not a hair mill by any means. He has comb through videos, which to me are way more reliable than photos (I think, unless they can be doctored too). BUT...I too am concerned that we have only seen a small body of work and little to no patient posted results. That said, I would probably opt to have more patient posted work before recommending. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Maz_a Posted January 25, 2022 Regular Member Share Posted January 25, 2022 I think there has to be a stream of positive feedback from real patients for some time before a recommendation to the recommended list should be approved. Just my view. I think I would start to doubt the integrity of the recommended list otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Melvin- Admin Posted January 25, 2022 Author Administrators Share Posted January 25, 2022 Dear Community, I hear you guys loud and clear. We have been letting Dr. Pittella post for months now, I thought he had enough body of work to be approved. In my opinion, his quality, skill is without a question some of the best we’ve seen. But I will wait to have some patients come and share their reviews before opening it back up. 1 I’m a paid admin for Hair Transplant Network. I do not receive any compensation from any clinic.

Administrators Melvin- Admin Posted July 11, 2022 Author Administrators Share Posted July 11, 2022 Dear Community, It has been more than six months since we initially put Dr. Felipe Pittella up for recommendation. In that time, many of his patients have joined the forum and posted their impressive results. I'm now re-opening this thread to get the communities input.

Regular Member lunch_owl Posted July 12, 2022 Regular Member Share Posted July 12, 2022 I would consider Dr Pitella in my top 3 list of surgeons based on his results with difficult cases and his stance on prescribing finasteride. When i joined this forum a few months ago, his patients' results blew me away. He was the first surgeon that gave me hope as a NW6/7. His status on the forum should be changed to "certified norwood slayer" lol. He has my vote. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member shiba1985 Posted July 12, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted July 12, 2022 Results good. Wish he had more interaction where he answered questions and bit more post op photos. But if just talking about results based on here and IG then yeh he is good 👍🏽. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member kirkland Posted July 12, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted July 12, 2022 I'd induct him into the Hairloss Network Hall of Fame just based on his staff. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member kirkland Posted July 12, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted July 12, 2022 (edited) In all seriousness, I have been impressed with Dr. Pittella's work with high Norwood cases. There have been more cases presented on here to showcase his talents. It's great that he is getting more attention and I hope that we see more members here consider him as their surgeon of choice.

Valued Contributor Gatsby Posted July 12, 2022 Valued Contributor Share Posted July 12, 2022 @kirkland I didn't recognize the photo! Looking insane man! Getting back to Dr Pitella my recommendation is to give him the master key to the forum! He's an incredible Norwood 7 thumbs up from me! 2 GATSBY 'UNPLUGGED!' 15,671 (3 surgeries) Grafts FUE+BHT Dr. Sethi Eugenix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member RTC Posted July 13, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted July 13, 2022 I think he does great work, but it would be very useful to ask prospective doctors some tough questions like how they treat patients who don't get a good result, what safeguards are in place etc. But on the balance of what I have seen, definitely should be in 1 Hattingen September 2023 - Punchouts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
