Background
Sever Muresanu practices alongside his wife, Dr. Laura Muresanu, at Hattingen Hair Transplantation in Stetten, near Schaffhausen, Switzerland, a clinic the pair say has built its reputation over nearly 20 years serving clients from 70 countries 1. Per the IAHRS's biography of him, Muresanu finished medical school in Cluj-Napoca, Romania in 2001, then worked as a hair transplant technician in Canada with his wife before the couple opened a practice in Germany that the bio says became a market leader in the German-speaking world, before the clinic relocated to Schaffhausen in 2009 4. The bio traces his focus on realistic, long-term planning to witnessing the first hair transplant surgery he saw, at age 15, shortly after his mother, herself a doctor, had trained as a hair transplant technician, and to witnessing what it calls "improper hair restoration planning" later on 4. He works alongside a team the bio describes as ten trained technicians 4.
Procedures and techniques
The clinic offers FUT, FUE and DHI 1. It describes FUT sessions moving up to 7,000 follicular units in a single sitting, translating to roughly 15,400 hairs at its stated hair count of 2.2 per unit, and frames large first-treatment sessions as, in its words, "the only way to achieve natural and aesthetic results" 1. FUE is described as minimally invasive extraction of individual units that leaves no linear scar and suits patients who wear their hair short or have limited donor supply 1. DHI is described as using a pen-like Choi implanter to place follicles without pre-cut recipient sites, which the clinic says gives more control over angle, depth and direction of implantation 1. The clinic states its whole surgical team focuses on a single patient at a time 1. It frames its overall approach around an ethos that results must have "the most natural aesthetic" 1.
Booking and aftercare
Prospective patients can start online through a consultation form asking for photos, contact details and family history of hair loss 2. The clinic's knowledge center also carries a section specifically on preparing for a video consultation, suggesting remote video consultations are offered alongside the form 3. Its premises in Stetten are described as a secluded, wooded setting used for both consultations and surgery 1.
Credentials and memberships
Muresanu is listed as an Associate Member of the IAHRS 4.
