Dr. med. Nikolai Kuz
A new face among the plastic and aesthetic surgeons
Dr Nikolai Kuz is the new senior physician at the Plastic Aesthetic Surgeons at the ETHIANUM. However, he is not that new, as he moved from the BG Unfallklinik Frankfurt am Main to the private clinic in Heidelberg in April 2021 as an assistant doctor to complete his specialist training under the well-known luminaries of aesthetic surgery Prof Dr Günter Germann, Prof Dr Holger Engel and Prof Dr Matthias Reichenberger.
In June of this year, he received his licence to practise as a specialist, which also brought with it a promotion to Senior Consultant for Plastic and Aesthetic Surgery at the ETHIANUM for the doctor, who is very popular with colleagues and patients alike.
Dr Kuz offers the entire range of plastic and aesthetic surgery, with a particular preference for body contouring procedures – and he has a very special history …
Even as a child, Niko, as he is known to family and friends, showed signs of his current profession, drawing bodies with great passion and dedication – in pencil. He rediscovered this talent as a student and thus gave expression to his enjoyment of the subject of anatomy on paper. He became acquainted with aesthetic surgery via general and reconstructive surgery and then ended up in aesthetic surgery.
And he has retained his love of drawing in his everyday practice to this day. He uses his patients’ drawings to compare the status quo with the imaginable ideal and has thus sharpened his eye for what is feasible.
Dr Kuz is a kind of sculptor among aesthetic surgeons; he tries to recognise the possible contours of a lift or liposuction. Here – as in the drawings – he demonstrates his penchant for perfect aesthetics.
In his spare time, Nikolai Kuz has another great passion, triathlon, and regularly takes part in Ironman competitions. He is therefore also extremely physically fit and, as he says, this gives him the strength he needs for his strenuous day-to-day work.
Whenever he can, he travels to Spain, where he already spent some time during his studies.
