My special interest is rhinoplasty surgery and prominent ear surgery. The most frequent surgeries I perform are ethnic rhinoplasty, revision rhinoplasty, revision otoplasty, upper eyelid surgeries, brow lift, and temporal lift surgeries. I graduated from Istanbul Medical Faculty in 2003.
In 2004, I started my specialization training at Istanbul Medical Faculty, Department of Otorhinolaryngology. Between 2009 and 2015, I worked as a specialist in Bağcılar Training and Research Hospital. I worked as an associate professor between 2015 and 2021. During this period, I contributed to the training of many assistant physicians and their specialization theses. In 2019, I started to work at Istinye University, Department of Otorhinolaryngology. As of 2021, I have been working as a professor in the Department of Otorhinolaryngology at Istinye University.
Rhinoplasty
Otoplasty
Ethnic Rhinoplasty
Revision Rhinoplasty
Rhinoplasty: Have a more beautiful nose that breathes well. It is a surgery of about 3 hours. You can return to your social life after 10 days.
Otoplasty: It is the surgery performed to correct the deformity in which the ears are angled forward, known as the prominent ear. The operation time is approximately 2 hours. You can return to normal social life after 1 week.
Ethnic Rhinoplasty: Nasal anatomies of patients of African-American or Asian ethnic origin are different. The surgical techniques used in these patients are also different and require extra experience.
Revision Rhinoplasty: Patients who have undergone rhinoplasty at least once before undergo rhinoplasty again. In these surgeries, the patient’s request should be determined very carefully and detailed information should be given about the result to be obtained.
Temporal Lift and Brow Lift Surgery: It is known as temple stretching surgery. It is an average of 2 hours of surgery.
