Dr. Maria Petrus

Dr Maria Petrus is the lead doctor (Leitende Ärztin) of Hair Esthetic, a hair transplant practice in the Seefeld district of Zurich, Switzerland 1. The practice says (in German) that it has run its practice at Höschgasse 50 for more than 30 years, and lists her as lead doctor for over 30 years 1. It says it specialises in transplants of the patient's own hair 1. The business owner, Isabelle Jevremov, is described as a hair transplant specialist of over 30 years 1. The site gives no further background on Dr Petrus 1.

The practice says it uses only FUE, which it calls its FUE sapphire method 2. It says hollow needles of 0.6 to 0.8 mm are used and that shaving all the hair is not always needed 2. It says up to 8,500 hairs can be moved over two consecutive days, counting hairs rather than grafts 2. It lists male pattern hair loss and hairless or FUT scars among the uses 2. The site does not say which steps Dr Petrus performs herself 1.

The practice says FUE costs from CHF 3,000 2. It gives no graft count for that figure 2.

The first consultation is free 3. Treatment is outpatient under local anaesthesia, and the practice says the final result shows after about ten months 2. It says it guarantees lifelong growth of the hair it transplants, without stating terms 1.

She is an ISHRS Full Member, and her profile gives 2008 as the year she joined 4.
