Areas of Expertise

• Rhinoplasty (Nose Surgery) — aesthetic nose planning tailored to facial proportions, aiming for a natural appearance.
• Revision Rhinoplasty — secondary surgery for patients who have previously undergone surgery and are unsatisfied with the result.
• Septoplasty (Deviated Septum) — treatment of internal nasal structural disorders, such as septum deviation, to improve breathing function.
• Turbinate Reduction — treatment of nasal congestion caused by turbinate hypertrophy.

Approach

Clinical Approach

Rhinoplasty is not merely an aesthetic procedure; it is also a surgery that directly affects the breathing function. Therefore, every patient is evaluated from both an aesthetic and functional perspective.

Why an ENT Specialist

Why Choose an ENT Specialist?

Rhinoplasty is not purely a cosmetic surgery procedure; it is a functional intervention that directly impacts respiratory function. Having the process managed by an Ear, Nose, and Throat specialist who masters both aesthetic and functional anatomy ensures more predictable outcomes in terms of both appearance and breathing post-surgery.
