A nose that looks right and a nose that breathes well belong to the same plan. Aesthetics, function and health are treated together, not separately.
Main area of practice
Rhinoplasty is not only about changing the shape of the nose. Facial proportions, nasal function, skin and cartilage are assessed together to build a surgical plan for one person.
Read about my approach to rhinoplasty →The nose is judged within the whole face, never on its own.
Breathing is part of the aesthetic plan; neither is sacrificed for the other.
Planning for one person's anatomy rather than a standard nose shape.
Regular follow-up by the surgeon from before surgery through recovery.
The surgeon
I graduated from Kocaeli Üniversitesi Tıp Fakültesi in 2013 and completed my ENT residency at Ümraniye Eğitim ve Araştırma Hastanesi in 2020. After two years at Pendik Devlet Hastanesi, I have been seeing patients at my own clinic in Kadıköy, Istanbul since 2022, focusing on nasal and sinus disease, septal deviation, turbinate problems and functional nasal surgery.

Examination, endoscopy where needed, and a conversation about expectations.
Facial proportions, skin thickness and cartilage assessed on photographs.
One plan for breathing and shape; technique, hospital and date.
At an affiliated hospital under general anaesthesia; usually one night.
The first ten days: splint, swelling and the first check-ups.
Regular check-ups through the first year as the result settles.
