Editorial note: VERIFIED — principals confirmed via ISHRS/ABHRS credentials plus the independent Australian Independent Hair Reviews (aihr.com.au) and releasemysuper.com.au editorial coverage, in addition to the clinic's own team page. CORRECTION to candidate data: Dr Marzola's awards are Golden Follicle 2006 and Manfred Lucas 2019 (candidate said 2018) per ISHRS/clinic records. Independent corroboration for the Medihair Transplant BRAND itself is thinner than the surgeons' individual authority-body credentials — most brand-level hits are aggregators (medihair.com, whatclinic = excluded). Overlap with The Knudsen Clinic (shared surgeon Knudsen) noted — do not treat as fully independent operators. Price band is a rough indicative figure from a secondary summary, NOT verified pricing. Do NOT confuse with 'medihair.com' (commission aggregator) or with 'Hair Transplants Melbourne' (separate Coburg practice).
