At the recent ISHRS World Congress in Berlin, one of the most popular sessions was the Live Patient Viewing, featuring real cases of hair transplant cases.

One of those patients, Chris, traveled all the way from Poland to Berlin to take part with Dr. Bisanga. His story has been shared before - a journey of recovery after suffering severe overharvesting in the donor area from a black-market hair transplant performed by a non-doctor.

Under the care of Dr. Christian Bisanga, Chris underwent two repair surgeries over the past two years to restore density and improve the appearance of his donor area. Today, his results speak for themselves - and so does his renewed confidence.

Today, on 11.11 – ISHRS World Hair Transplant Repair Day, we shine a light on patients like Chris and the doctors working to restore trust and safety in hair restoration. If you know someone who has experienced an unethical hair transplant and wants to share their story, please reach out to us.

A patient came to Dr. Georgios Zontos after undergoing a black-market hair transplant performed by unauthorized personnel - a non-doctor. The procedure left him with an overharvested and depleted donor area.

In this video, Dr. Zontos shares how a careful repair surgery, combined with ongoing medical treatments, helped restore not only hair growth—but also the patient’s confidence and trust in proper medical care. The results shown are after 1 year of the repair.
