What Patients Say About Us

 

How It Works

Consultation

First, Dr. Bruno analyses your case in a preliminary consultation in order to reach a diagnosis and a plan. When the patient is the right candidate, surgery is booked.

FUE+Extraction

Extraction

Hair is harvested from an androgen resistant zone using micro punches that measure less than 1 milimeter. A technique called FUE (Follicular Unit Excision).

Implantation

Implantation

After extraction, the harvested hairs are implanted back into the scalp, to the areas where they’re needed most.

Results

Results start appearing after 5 months and will go on improving until 10-12 months post-op. We’ll guide and follow-up with you each step of the way.

About Dr. Bruno

Dr. Bruno Filipe Carneiro Ferreira has been performing Hair Transplant Surgery exclusively for 10 years. Known to be a perfectionist and obsessive about naturalness, he takes no shortcuts in delivering the results. He’s also very close to his patients and cares deeply about hospitality and making the process as comfortable, pain-free and clear for his patients as possible. As he says “My philosophy is lifting the weight from my patient’s shoulders worrying about their hair. You go and live your life and we’ll make sure your hair will be there along for the ride with you”. Performing all steps of the surgery himself and only one surgery per day, he feels this enables him to give his best care and attention to each of his patients.

Dr. Ferreira is also active in researching hair transplant surgery, developing instruments, techniques and moving forward the state-of-the-art in hair restoration. He’s been invited as faculty for both ISHRS and WFI meetings, sharing his knowledge with his peers, something he rather enjoys.

In his free time, he loves sports and fitness, he’s a guitar player for a rock band, loves to spend time with his friends and family and traveling. Very interested in self-development and learning, he reads more than 30 books every year.

“I’m ready to start! Where is the clinic?”

Beautiful_Canal_Bridge_at_Night_in_Porto_City

Porto, Portugal

Our clinic is situated in the beautiful city of Porto, in Portugal. Nominated Best European Destination in 2012, 2014 and 2017.

Most major cities have direct flights to Porto.

We receive patients from all over the world, so we know how important it is for them to feel at home throughout their stay with us. So we setup the clinic in a way that makes the experience as streamlined as possible.

Our clinic is situated about 20 minutes away from the OPO airport and you can get to it by Taxi/Uber or train. You can also hire a ride with our private driver service. It’s away from the city center in a place called Espinho to ensure patients get a peaceful and discrete experience. Some patients opt to still stay in the city center to do some visiting. Either way, we’ll help you with sorting out your accommodations.

The Portuguese are a very welcoming and friendly people. They usually speak and/or understand English and most places are multilingual. It’s easy to speak English in Portugal.

The clinic itself is boutique style. Not too large, with greatly designed and cared-for interiors, always with some fresh natural flowers in the waiting areas, coffee and tea at your disposal and even some artwork to enjoy. This goes with our mantra of a very patient-centered, personalized care. Of course this warm-welcoming interior doesn’t deter from the fact that our Operating Room is state-of-the-art and that we have all the technological means we could wish for to ensure the greatest results.

FUE

Follicular Unit Excision - FUE - is the most current, most advanced technique for donor hair harvesting in hair restoration surgery. Leaving virtually imperceptible scars, it allows you to keep cutting your hair however you like it, being it very short or long. No sutures are needed and recovery is very quick.

Both Manual and Motorized extraction techniques can be used to ensure the highest quality grafts.

High P

otency Microscopes

A key step in hair restoration is ensuring graft viability and precisely identifying the amount of hair in each follicular unit. Something crucial to ensure maximum naturalness. Only under good magnification can this be achieved.

The Vision Engineering Mantis is a top of the line stereomicroscope that enables us to see your grafts with extreme detail and to ensure proper handling.

Graft Preservation

Graft preservation is of the upmost importance in a surgery where you are essentially transplanting living micro-organs - your hair follicles. These are very delicate and fragile structures that not only need extreme caution in handling, but also need to be accommodated in the best way possible to ensure they survive their ex vivo time. Absolutely no expense is spared in the preservation of your grafts.

Implanters

Graft implantation with implanters has been proven to be the most atraumatic, most controlled way of placing hair follicles in the desired areas. They provide the surgeon with extreme precision in placement, angle and depth, allowing for the maximum control and graft survival, maximizing the result of your hair transplant.

 

“Are The Results Guaranteed?”

We are more than happy to offer you our Growth Guarantee. If anything less than 90% of the transplanted hair grows, we’ll re-transplant those units, at no extra-charge. Why 90%? Because at all times, 10% of your hairs are in the dormant phase, a normal part of a healthy hair cycle.

As will all medical procedures, there are no 100% certainties. Each patient has his/her own intricacies. But we know how consistent our results are and we know how important to us it is to get the best possible result for each patient. So we stand by our results.
