Plastic surgeons use a variety of techniques to achieve these goals, such as skin grafts, flap surgery, tissue expansion, and more.

Examples of cosmetic procedures include facelift, rhinoplasty, eyelid surgery, and liposuction. Reconstructive plastic surgery; It is performed to correct functional disorders caused by congenital defects, developmental abnormalities, trauma, infection, tumors or diseases. Examples of reconstructive procedures include post-mastectomy breast reconstruction, cleft lip and palate repair, and hand surgery.
Rhinoplasty
Rhinoplasty, which is an operation to reshape the nose, is the most common operation among plastic surgery procedures. With this surgery, the size of the nose is reduced or enlarged, the tip of the nose can be reshaped, if there is an aquiline nose, it can be corrected, the wide nasal base and nose wings can be narrowed, and if necessary, the tip of the nose is lifted. During these procedures, if there is a curvature in the nose that prevents breathing, this is easily corrected. Rhinoplasty will positively change your appearance. The expectations of someone who wants rhinoplasty surgery should be realistic. No one’s nose is like another’s. In rhinoplasty, one’s own nose can be made more compatible with his own face within normal anatomical limits.
Facial Aesthetics
People who always wanted to look beautiful discovered various ways and methods of getting beautiful over time. Smells were discovered after accessories and colorful clothes. However, the human being, who was not satisfied with this, started new searches to have the body shape he wanted. With the advancement of aesthetic surgery and technology day by day, today’s people have come to a situation where they can change themselves from head to toe in the name of beauty. Plastic surgery in Turkey has advanced with great strides in recent years and has taken its place among the world’s leading countries in facial operations.
Breast Aesthetics
Breast tissue can be deformed due to birth, breastfeeding, aging and developmental disorders.
However, it may be deformed depending on aging, or it may have a congenitally too small or large form. This situation may cause people to be dissatisfied with their physical appearance and therefore to experience self-confidence problems and psychological problems. In addition, being satisfied with one’s physical characteristics is an important factor that reflects on the psychological state in relation to creating a healthy body image. For this reason, personal preferences are considered as a criterion in the breast aesthetic operation to be performed. However, the realistic results that may occur after the surgery should be shared with the patient by the plastic surgeon and the patient should be given an awareness in this direction.
Breast aesthetic operations are performed by plastic surgeons who are experts in their field. Although there is no standard measure of the shape and proportion of the breast, it is preferred that each body has the appropriate breast type. Breast reduction, breast reconstruction, breast lift and breast augmentation are among the most preferred surgical interventions today. With implants placed with incisions made under the natural folds under the breast; It is possible to perform breast shaping, remodeling, breast augmentation and lifting operations. Thanks to the different shape and volume options of the implant models designed in round and drop shape, it is extremely easy to achieve the desired breast structure today.
Eyelid Reconstruction (Blepharoplasty)
With aging, structural changes occur in the skin that increase with age, and reasons such as hereditary, personal characteristics and environmental factors accelerate this change. At the age of 20, dynamic lines begin to appear due to the contraction of the muscle that closes the eyelids, called the laugh line or crow’s foot. Gravity lines begin around the age of 40 and sagging is seen in the skin that loses its elasticity due to the effect of gravity.
Liposuction
Today, one of the most important problems of both men and women is obesity. Although diet and exercise are the most important factors in coping with this problem, sometimes genetic reasons and sometimes fat accumulation in resistant areas cannot be eliminated. With the “liposuction” method, vacuum and fat extraction with cannulas provide very good results in suitable people. People who are close to their ideal weight and have good skin tension constitute the most suitable group for this operation. Appropriate skin tension ensures that the loosened skin adapts to the newly formed shape more easily after the fat is removed. The operation can be performed under general or local anesthesia in line with the areas to be “liposuction”, the amount of fat to be removed, the general health status of the person and his request.
Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL)
The demand for BBL has therefore grown so much in recent years. Some people may prefer butt lift and buttock augmentation operations to achieve a more lifted and voluminous aesthetic appearance, especially due to sagging and aging.
Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL), also known as butt lift, is an aesthetic procedure that creates a fuller and shaped butt look. In recent years, BBL (Brazilian Buttock) is one of the most frequently applied procedures in the aesthetic field, which is known as butt aesthetics and includes several different methods.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Aesthetic Surgery? What is Reconstructive Surgery?
Aesthetic surgery is shape correction surgery. In other words, it is the change of the shape of the tissues and organs with distorted shape and/or dimensions in line with the patient’s liking and ideal anatomical dimensions. Example: Enlarging small breasts with a silicone prosthesis. Reconstructive surgery is repair surgery. It is the reconstruction of organs that are congenitally missing or defective, or destroyed or deformed as a result of accident, burn, tumor surgery. Example: Reconstruction of the breast taken as a result of cancer.
Are Plastic Surgeries Painful?
Many aesthetic surgeries are not painful as they only concern the skin and subcutaneous tissues. Even if there is mild pain, it will pass in 1-2 days and it can be easily controlled with painkillers during this time. In surgeries involving muscles, such as breast prosthesis surgeries, the feeling of pain and tension may take a little longer.
Will there be a scar after the operation?
There is a common belief that plastic surgery is an operation that leaves no scars. Appropriate surgical material and special suture materials are used for aesthetic surgery, even if it is very little, a scar remains. However, in plastic surgeries, these scars are hidden somewhere. For example, inside the nostrils in rhinoplasty, inside the eyelid in eyelid surgery, behind the ear in ear operations. In tummy tuck operations, the scar is slightly longer than the cesarean section and remains hidden in the bikini area. Liposuction does not leave any traces. In some surgeries, it is not possible to hide all the scars. For example, as in breast reduction surgeries.
