Regular Member HUGO FREITAS Posted February 3, 2022 Regular Member Share Posted February 3, 2022 Hello, I'm here to show and follow together my hair implant case with Dr. Felipe Pittella, carried out in the state of Espirito Santo, Brazil. On 03/19/21 I made my appointment online and my baldness was as shown in the photos below. My surgery was performed yesterday, 02/02/22 in Linhares-ES, Brazil, according to the pre-operative, intra-operative and post-operative photos. Dr. Felipe Pittel implanted 5.612 follicles, which corresponded to 11.170 hairs, as shown in the picture of the surgery table. that's because in dermoscopy, my donor area was considered average with few triplets and lots of singles. Today, 03/02/22, the first postoperative day, I am fine, I have not felt any pain or discomfort so far, I have already performed the first review and I am very satisfied with the follow-up and the initial result. In the next few days I'll post my evolution for everyone to follow. I am available if anyone is interested in knowing more information about the procedure. To the next. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have some great hir characteristics 🙌🏼 Hello. Yes, my brother operated on him in March 2021, and in October 2021, the result was already perfect. I will post a picture of him before implantation and another photo 6 months after the implant with Dr Pittella. This is my brother's result. But I have other friends who have also had an implant with Dr Pittella. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My brother is a nurse and works at a federal hospital in Vitória-ES, and Dr Felipe Pittella was recommended by several specialist doctors as a reference in hair implants in the state of Espirito Santo and with excellent references and results. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can also follow Dr Pittella's instagram, just like I did, @dr.felipepittella and I followed his results closely, to decide to do it himself. Hug.

It’s definitely not 75 cents thats black market hair mill pricing, it’s around $3-4 USD for a doctor of his caliber. I recall him saying around that price point when I asked. 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.
