Hair Transplant Consultation with Dr Couto - FUE Expert, Madrid - My Thoughts

Here are my immediate thoughts after my hair transplant consultation with Dr Couto of FUE Expert in Madrid, Spain. The video was filmed earlier this year.
I had my first transplant at Elithair in Istanbul, Turkey in July 2020 when I was 31 years old. It was 2300 grafts at the front; 1200 grafts on my crown. I logged that experience and you can watch all the videos here: • 0 - 18 MONTHS after FU...

    I agree that you met with probably the best in the world. Anyone who has seen his videos can only be impressed. If you have the donor hair, and you can have your hairline improved by a master, I get it. If you decide to do nothing however, you still have an amazing result from your first one.

    Good idea to go there and see Dr Couto in person. I think it's turned out well to go to Elithair first and pay not much when they did a great job and get Couto to finish it off. The better clinics will offer to even out the donor area and the cheaper ones probably wouldn't. I hope it all goes well.

    Great channel mate. I am surprised he first offered 2000 grafts to lower the hairline that much. To be honest that is a bit a greedy move knowning it would leave you with almost nothing left in your donor area for the future. I don't know honestly, even 1600 grafts just for a touch up on the hairline seems a bit too much. His work is absolutely exceptional so I totally understand you would like to put the trigger for the best possible facial result. That being said you will have spent 5100 grafts in total. It depends how much left you would have in your donor area. Doctor Mwamba in Belgium seems much more conservative with fixes on the videos I watched.

I emailed FUExpert in November 2019 and asked about a consultation and they said they would book it in for January 2021! I never pursued it, but the videos online are incredible. If you really want the front doing and you can afford it I think it’s worth going to the best clinic.

Bro you waited a year for a consultation, why didn't you just make you appointment there and then? That might take you two or three years to even get it done by him. It sounds like he's pretty popular, I've been looking at his work for quite a while and I think I'll get it done by him my 2nd transplant.

Um deles seria o Dr. Rafael de Freitas, também espanhol. Seja como for, talvez você possa considerar outros países. No Brasil, por exemplo, há excelentes médicos, e a moeda está bem desvalorizada em comparação ao euro. Desejo-lhe muito sucesso. Abraços.

So the price per graft is 4.5€ if you haven't had any previous hair transplant as you said, any discount if you reach a certain amount of graft? The price changes if the transplant is done in the crown area instead of temples? Thank you again :)

    Wow, it's amazing that you got a consultation with FUEExpert! They're very tough to get an appointment with. I think you avoided a big risk by not having temples done in Elithair, I seen another KZreadr who had to get some transplanted temple hairs removed due to misplacement. How do you feel about your natural temples as they are? Personally I think your hair transplant as it is now is incredible, but I understand the desire to chase perfection. Another clinic that does a great job with hairlines, temples/temple peaks is Eugenix in India, they're also cheaper. I'd recommend you take a look at some cases from them. :)

    Great video. I have a question for you, if you'd be so kind as to take a look at it and answer: I'm curious what methods he employed to determined your first drawn on hairline height. Depending on the surgeon's philosophy of where the hairline should rest, different conclusions can be made. These may include, but are not limited to these two methods: 1: Using your lower 2/3rds as a reference to calculate your 'ideal' upper third height, and drawing the hairline based on this 2: Using the top of the frontalis muscle, with a finger's width above it, and drawing the hairline based on this. Etc. If you raise your eyebrows up as high as they go to create wrinkles in your forehead, how much space is there between your top most forehead wrinkle and your current hairline? Certain hair surgeons indicate that the 'natural' hairline falls at about finger's width above your top most forehead wrinkle (which is the top of frontalis muscle). I am curious if the first hairline he drew for you followed this idea of the hairline being just above the frontalis muscle, or if he decided to use your facial thirds as the primary justifications, OR if he employed another method. Thanks in advance.

    He drew the hairlines purely from his eye. No tools were used at all. Personally, I felt the first one was quite ridiculous. I agree with you about using the highest muscle point and allowing one finger to be placed above between the hairline. I felt like the first hairline he drew would’ve been too close to the muscle.

    Hi mate, I've been following your progress since the beginning. I've even had a transplant myself! I think your results are brilliant, and in my opinion, I don't think you need the extra surgery. However, I can understand why you'd want it, and if its something thats affordable, then good luck to you. Keep up the content! I'd be intrigued to see how your 2nd surgery goes, and what the results look like. I had surgery in the UK. 1200 grafts for £4000, so for what you're getting there from the best surgeon in the world is good value. Best of luck!

    I'm Spanish, did same research and my conclusion was the 2 best surgeons in the world are in Spain lol... I guess we are lucky. 1life long decision, go to the best or don't. Money difference is big but not a lot for a life decision lol... think about cars lol.. Turkey?? Nah... Couto is the best in first hair line. Lorenzo is the best in low density midscalp. So my recommendation for your case just do it! And take medication all your life (if you didn't have any big side effects). And I share your opinion, 1st drawed line was too low. 2nd ok. You don't know how you will be in 10 years. Most important is keep as much grafts as possible for future transplants if needed.
