Dr. Hannes Domeisen

Dr Hannes Domeisen runs Clinic Pilopro, a hair transplant clinic at Rathausstrasse 2 in Rapperswil, Switzerland 1. The site describes it as a clinic for hair transplants on Lake Zurich 3. The clinic's site (in German) says he is a Swiss FMH specialist in ear, nose and throat medicine who studied at the University of Zurich 2. It says he trained further in neck and facial surgery in Switzerland and South America 2. It says he has had his own practice in Rapperswil since 2001 and has more than 25 years of surgical experience in the head and neck area 2. The site says Clinic Pilopro was founded in 2013 3. It says patients are always advised and treated by Dr Domeisen personally 2.

The clinic offers FUE and FUT (strip) hair transplants, beard transplants and eyebrow transplants 45. Its FAQ names partially shaved FUE and a method without shaving as alternatives to a full shave 6. It says FUT is often used for women because it needs no shaving 6. It says scars in hair-bearing areas can also be corrected 6. The price page says every procedure is performed personally by the operating specialist 7. The procedure page describes FUE extraction with 0.8 to 1.0 mm punches 8. It gives a treatment time of 5 to 8 hours, as an outpatient under local anaesthesia 8. The FAQ says about 4,000 to 6,000 grafts can usually be harvested in total over several sessions 6. It says further procedures should be planned no earlier than one year after the first result 6.

The clinic says a scalp hair transplant usually costs between 5,000 and 10,000 Swiss francs, and an eyebrow transplant between 3,000 and 5,500, depending on the effort involved 7. It ties no graft counts to these ranges and makes an individual offer after a personal consultation 7. It says there are no extra costs for the consultation, check-ups or an increase in the number of grafts 7. It says PRP and medication against further hair loss are charged separately 7. The FAQ says the agreed flat price includes the preliminary consultation, the treatment and the follow-up checks 6. It says payment about one week before the procedure is usual 6.

The clinic asks patients to call to book a personal consultation at the Rapperswil clinic 1. The site says patients are usually able to work again after 3 to 10 days and can resume sport after 1 to 3 weeks 5. The procedure page says the result, and whether further steps are needed, should be checked only after 10 to 18 months 8. The price page calls its no-extra-costs promise a price guarantee ("Preisgarantie") 7. No waiting time is published 76.
