Trivellini Academy versus ISHRS webinars: pros and cons of each
An honest comparison between Trivellini's online academy and ISHRS webinars: format, cost, depth, individual follow-up, and when to choose each of them.
By Trivellini Academy Team · · 2 min read
ISHRS is the leading international society for hair restoration surgery, and its webinars are among the most accessible options. This comparison sets those webinars next to the academy and says where each one wins. It is part of the map of hair transplant training.
Data from the webinar used as an example
The Spanish-language webinar "Advanced Techniques in Hair Surgery, with FUT and FUE", on 9 July 2025: two hours, recorded, with moderation and Q&A sessions. Free for ISHRS members and 25 USD for others; registration is listed as closed at the date we checked [1]. Roberto Trivellini was one of the speakers, with the talk on manual and motorized FUE.
Comparison
| Criterion | ISHRS webinars | Trivellini Academy |
|---|---|---|
| Format | A few-hour session with several speakers | Course with modules, lessons and quiz |
| Scope | Broad overview of techniques | One specific method, Roberto Trivellini's |
| Cost | Low (25 USD for July 2025; free for members) [1] | Course price on its page; 1:1 session separate |
| Individual follow-up | Live questions during the event | AI tutor and 1:1 session with the instructor |
| Repetition | Recording of the event | Lessons and quiz at your pace |
| Languages | Spanish in this case | Several, with dubbing and review |
| Credential | Per the society | Academy certificate, verifiable, not a license |
| Independence | Several speakers, scientific society | One instructor with commercial interests in his instruments |
Where ISHRS wins
- Variety of viewpoints. That webinar brought together about a dozen speakers on FUT, FUE, anatomy, punches, quality, transection, implantation and recipient design [1].
- Very low entry cost, or none for members.
- Independence. It does not depend on one method or device.
- Membership of a scientific society.
Where the academy wins
- Depth in one method. If you want to study the multiphase system and Long Hair FUE, the academy develops them with more room.
- Follow-up. 1:1 session and AI tutor.
- Study structure: lessons, quiz and progress.
When to choose ISHRS webinars
If you want a cheap overview, to compare approaches from several surgeons, or you are still deciding which technique interests you.
When to choose the academy
If you already know Roberto's method interests you and want to study it with structure and someone to ask. And remember: they are not mutually exclusive.
Problems each one solves better: learning curve and expensive, distant in-person training.
