BTW man. Can I ask if u had the surgery done entirely by Couto or did Dr.Torres run a part of it as well?

 

cheers

Dr.Torres did a part of it on day 2, middle scalp area only, all the hairline and temples done by Dr.Couto himself

Thanks 🙏
300€ 

Unfortunately I am not sure, being located in Canada it’s quite far for me. I’ll try to find a clinic that does the specific PRP Dr.Couto explained to me 

can you explain what kind of PRP he suggested?

Incrementally increasing the rotational speed and vice versa on the way down 

Thank you.
I think it is shocking that Couto treated a such big are with a such small amount of grafts.

Couto Charges more than others for single grafts but he is so skilled and uses such a small amputa of grafts, that you pay less with couto than with other, less famous docs.


Did you wait about 2 yrs to get your HT?

hey guys, just received an email from the clinic giving me the details of the surgery 

Total of grafts: 2613
Total hair implanted: 7034

Ufs.1: 200
Ufs.2: 843
Ufs.3: 1132
Ufs.4: 438

Ratio: 2.7
 

200 singles seems very low for temple and hairline work no?

The name of their kit is Fidia, it's from an Italian manufacturer. Not used in the USA.

There's only one study I've been able to find comparing growth factor yield with different kits and the "best" out there is Emcyte. There have been no studies comparing different kits with regards to actual hair growth.

3 months update 

I am 2 days shy of the 3 months mark, time for a little update. 
right side looks better and fuller than the left side so far, but I guess for only 3 months it looks decent.

excited for month 4, I may be able to do a decent haircut. It still is very visible that I did a hair transplant at the moment
