Aesthetic and Plastic Surgery

Aesthetic Surgery is a sub-branch within plastic surgery. Aesthetic (or cosmetic) surgery deals with operations and interventions to make the body image more beautiful and perfect. There are aesthetic problems rather than medical problems. In the media, there is more news about the aesthetic aspect of plastic surgery, and perhaps for this reason, the public perceives plastic surgeons as people who only perform plastic surgery. However, plastic surgeons mostly deal with repair surgery (reconstructive surgery) in clinics.

All plastic surgeons also receive plastic surgery training during their specialty training and they are the only surgeons authorized to perform these operations. Aesthetic surgery requires long training and experience. Such operations require both surgical and artistic talent. In plastic surgery, not always aesthetic, but sometimes medical problems are solved. For example, surgical correction of an overweight body or breasts that have grown to giant sizes (gigantomastia) solves both medical and aesthetic problems. In addition to the aesthetic correction of an organ, its function is also extremely important. For example; In aesthetic nose surgery (Rhinoplasty), shape and breathing problems should be corrected together.

The Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) technique is a hair transplantation technique that allows us to remove follicles simultaneously transplanting the removed hair to achieve natural results. FUE is the process of transferring live hair follicles taken one by one from the hair area to the balding area, just like other hair transplantation attempts.

In FUE, no scalpel is used in the donor area, no stitches are made, and there is no visible scar in the area where the roots are taken. It restores hair to those suffering from balding without causing any complications to the patient or preventing them from their daily life.

Nose Aesthetics (Rhinoplasty)

Aesthetic nose surgery (rhinoplasty) or nose reshaping surgery is the most common aesthetic surgery. Aesthetic nose surgery can make your nose larger or smaller, change the shape of the tip or bridge of your nose, narrow the width of your nostrils, or change the angle between your nose and upper lip. It can also correct a congenital or injury-related deformity or relieve breathing problems. Aesthetic nose surgery can enhance your appearance and increase your self-confidence. The nose reshaping process will vary depending on the existing problem in the nose. Aesthetic nose surgery is performed by making a small incision on the part that separates the nostrils (columella). There are no visible marks from the outside. Most patients who have aesthetic nose surgery can stand up and walk around within 2 days.

Ear Aesthetics (Otoplasty)

The auricle can vary in size and shape depending on the genetic characteristics of the person. 80-90% of ear development is completed by the age of 5-6. Since ear development is largely completed at an early age, ear deformities also become evident at an early age. The most common ear problem is the “Prominent Ear” deformity. Although this disorder is a condition in which the ear canopy is further forward than normal and is mild in many people. It sometimes becomes noticeable and disturbs the person from early childhood and also can even cause serious psychological problems in some people.

However, it is possible to correct this situation with a simple and harmless surgical intervention. When aesthetic ear surgery is mentioned, the correction of prominent ears is generally understood, but there are many deformities related to the ear. Although some of these are congenital and structural, they may sometimes be due to an accident. Each ear deformity has its own characteristics and is operated on by choosing the appropriate surgical method.

Eyelid Aesthetics (Blepharoplasty)

Over time, due to aging, gravity and genetic factors, some changes occur in the lower and upper eyelids, making the person look older, tired and sleepy. However, looks are of great importance in every aspect of life. No one wants to look tired and sleepy, no matter who they are. These changes in the eyelids are bags caused by the herniation of excess skin, muscle and fatty tissues.

Breast Lift (Mastopexy)

Breasts may become saggy for various reasons. The ligaments that hold the breast tissue in place may loosen over time. Depending on weight changes, breastfeeding and the effect of gravity, there may be an incompatibility between the breast tissue and the surrounding skin envelope. In aesthetic breast lift surgery, sagging breast tissue is reshaped and excess skin is removed. The nipple is brought to where it should be. The breast is reconstructed in accordance with the person’s body dimensions.

Breast Reduction (Reduction Mammaplasty)

Although aesthetic breast reduction surgery seems to be one of the cosmetic surgeries performed to improve the appearance of the woman, it is a reconstructive surgery, not an aesthetic one. A sagging breast due to size can cause back and neck pain in women and lead to a hunchback. Numbness may occur due to the bra pressing on the arm nerves. He may have difficulty breathing. In aesthetic breast reduction surgery, large breast tissue is reshaped according to the person’s body size. Excess breast tissue and the skin above it are removed. The nipple is moved to where it should be. Aesthetic breast reduction surgery is a surgery that generally gives good and permanent results, improves the mental health of the person and his/her partner, makes them more committed to life, and especially facilitates the woman’s dressing style.

Breast Augmentation

Breast tissue is an important part of female beauty. Therefore, breast aesthetics is very popular around the world. Women who had breast development disorders during adolescence, whose breasts remained small, those who complain about breast size, those who have congenital breast disorders, those who complain about breast sagging, and those who experience breast asymmetry, apply to a Plastic Surgery Specialist for breast aesthetics.

Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty)

This surgery is performed for both men and women candidates with sagging abdominal skin who do not respond to diet and exercise. This surgery should be postponed for those who are planning to become pregnant or lose weight. Usage of all medications, herbal products and smoking should be shared before the surgery. Abdominoplasty is not a weight loss method. It is a surgery that stretches the abdominal skin and tightens the abdominal muscles. Additionally, liposuction is often used for retouching. It is not right to do it at the same time as birth; must be waited for at least 6 months.

The surgery is performed in the hospital under general or regional (waist) anesthesia and takes 2-4 hours. It is entered through an incision which is done at your bikini line and hidden under your underwear. After the excess abdominal skin is removed, the abdomen is stretched and closed, so when you wake up, you will find yourself in a “V” shape bent from the waist. Your drains will be removed in 1-4 days. Walking while leaning forward is recommended. If dissolvable stitches are used, they do not need to be removed. The corset is used for 1 month. Besides the classic tummy tuck, mini-abdominoplasty may be preferred in those whose abdomen is relatively tighter and skin looseness is less. The incision is short and the surgery recovery time is shorter.

Neck Lift

As a result of gravity and aging, the fat tissue on the face decreases and the skin loses its elasticity, causing the facial skin to sag in the fifties. Classic facelift surgery is the process of tightening the loosened face and neck skin by working with an incision that starts in front of the ear, turns back under the earlobe, and curves upwards, progressing and ending in the scalp. It is always performed together with neck lift surgery. In cases where sagging in the jaw area and separation of the muscles in the midline of the neck are evident, a small incision is made in the area under the chin and these muscles are tightened. It gives good results, especially in people with thin skin structure, where sagging in the neck and chin area is evident, and where sagging and wrinkles in the skin are more evident than in the deep tissues. Classic facelift surgery does not correct wrinkles and sagging around the eyes, mouth, midface and forehead.

For a more perfect and harmonious appearance, procedures such as mid-face lift, eyelid surgeries, botox and dermabrasion can be added to the surgery in the same session.

Fat Removal (Liposuction)

The number of fat cells in the adult human body is constant. After puberty, the number of fat cells does not increase, but the volume of fat cells increases. This results in weight gain. Proper diet, exercise and a regular lifestyle are essential to get rid of excess weight.

However, even people who fulfill these conditions may have stubborn fat deposits that do not disappear. Certain areas of the body such as the abdomen, waist, hips, outer and inner sides of the thighs and knees are areas for fat accumulation resistant to diet and exercise. Liposuction is an operation in which fat accumulations in certain parts of the body are suctioned with a special vacuum or special injectors and fat is removed from the body. It is not a slimming surgery, but a body contour correction surgery. With this surgery, fat tissue with increased volume and resistance to diet and exercise is removed from the body, while the number of existing fat cells is reduced. As long as the aim is not slimming but contour correction, it is an operation with no risk with a well-applied technique under well-chosen hospital conditions. It has become possible to remove fat accumulations in many parts of the body such as under the chin, cheeks, neck, inner arm fat, breasts, chest, abdomen, waist, hip, thigh, inner knee fat, and back of the leg with the vacuum.

Gynaecomastia

It is a condition of female-type growth in the breast area in male patients. It may occur due to the effects of certain medications or hormonal imbalances. Liposuction can be applied if the mass consists only of fat tissue. In cases where the mass enlarges and causes sagging in the breast, it may be necessary to remove the excess skin along with the mass.
