Dr. Kostis has been an integral part of the BHR Clinic team since 2019 and working exclusively alongside Dr .Bisanga has enabled him to hone his skills throughout a 2.5 years intensive period of hands-on FUE.

Dr. Kostis has learnt the "Bisanga" Protocols starting from the in-depth consultation to the planning and execution of surgery, including the now famous "Bisanga" extraction patterns and approach, to the cutting of recipient sites with small custom made blades to the holding and placing of grafts using forceps or with the KEEP implanter.

Dr. Kostis in a proficient #FUE surgeon in his own right and has also been trained in body hair usage of beard, chest and even leg hair subject to the right criteria.

You can expect the Bisanga quality to echo through in his surgery with also the signature of Dr. Kostis, and his entire approach and process capitalises on two decades of the elite experience of Dr. Bisanga that has been imparted to him in this accelerated and exhaustive period.

From artistic design to optimal clean extractions, you can be assured you are in the best of hands with Dr. Kostis.

Very interesting to see Dr. Kostis extracting leg hair, was this for donor restocking?

Interesting video showing the various protocols that are in place. It’s good to see that Dr Kostis went through 2.5 years of hands on training with Dr Bisanga. These days, quite a few have limited training from a few days to a few weeks, then off they go offering hair transplants.
What size punch is used on the leg hairs? I too would like to know where these grafts are used?
Thanks for sharing the video.

Thank you for your interest and questions.

Dr. Kostis explained that in this particular case, over 500 grafts were extracted from the leg using a 0.8mm punch, with placing into the mid scalp and crown area favourably blended with scalp hair.

Dr. Kostis explained that whilst many patients may not be great candidates in terms of leg hair, but that this particular patient had many 2 and 3 hair grafts that had a positive influence on average hair count.
Having said that, leg hair has a thinner shaft than beard hair for example and so all such factors must be considered when planning for surgery.

Thanks for the explanation. If you’re in touch with the patient could you ask for some leg pictures to show how the extractions healed?
