Regular Member gary123 Posted September 11 Regular Member Share Posted September 11 Hi all, Deeply appreciative to this community for all of their input. I am 40 years old NW6 on minoxidil and topical dutesteride. I have mulling FUE for a few years now. I have narrowed it down to two surgeons and wanted some direction. Sever can get me in January 2025 and will meet with me before in my home town when he is travelling.. Pitella surgery date if for august 2026 with the possibility of moving up sooner if cancellations. Seems like there is more hype and reputation around Pitella, but both of their work looks really great. I get nervous that Pitella wants to try for 10,000 grafts based on virtual consult and do not like that I would have to wait longer, but I also want the best chance for the best results.

Valued Contributor Berba11 Posted September 11 Valued Contributor Share Posted September 11 Just to avoid confusion, it’s Dr Laura Muresanu that does the FUE at Hattingen (or Carmen for extractions if you request her to do it), and not Dr Sever (he does the FUT). Laura is brilliant, but just thought I’d mention that as I think a lot of people tend to think only of Dr Sever when they think of Hattingen. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Paul_ Posted September 13 Regular Member Share Posted September 13 I cannot say for Pitella's megasessions, however for large sessions (4-5k grafts) both FUE and FUT I wouldn't hesitate to go with Sever / Laura Muresanu. Excellent track record, ethical and honest This also alleviates a lot of risk for you, doing it in 2 sessions and being able to course correct as needed between the two rounds 1 Two successful repairs (pluggy hairline removal + donor restoration) with Dr Ball - The Maitland Clinic https://www.hairrestorationnetwork.com/topic/72766-pluggy-hairline-removal-donor-restocking-2-repairs-with-dr-ball-maitland-clinic/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member gillenator Posted September 15 Senior Member Share Posted September 15 Hi Gary, listen, I truly think either choice of these doctors will potentially give you a nice result and either one has the track record to prove it…my guess is you will choose the one who will commit to the earliest date.
