HRBR – Hair Restoration Blackrock is a surgical led team of hair transplant surgeons and technicians. We employ only qualified surgeons, trained technicians and nurses.
At HRBR we specialise in FUE and FUT.
HRBR was founded 10 years ago by Dr Maurice Collins, a specialist head and neck surgeon.
HRBR is based in Blackrock, Co. Dublin, Ireland. We see patients primarily from Ireland, Northern Ireland, the UK and Europe. We also see patients from the US, Asia, Africa and the Middle East.
