Rhinoplasty Surgeon in Istanbul, Turkey

Rhinoplasty is the surgical field that addresses the appearance and the breathing function of the nose together, covering primary and revision rhinoplasty, septoplasty and ethnic rhinoplasty. In an ENT-based assessment both form and function are planned; technique and outcome are individual, and an in-person examination is required.

Expert rhinoplasty combining aesthetic refinement with functional improvement for natural, harmonious results.

Our Approach

Each rhinoplasty is carefully planned considering facial proportions, ethnic characteristics, and individual goals. We combine advanced surgical techniques with artistic vision to achieve results that enhance your natural beauty.

Choosing a surgeon

How should you choose a rhinoplasty surgeon?

The decision should not rely only on social-media photographs or “best surgeon” claims. Verify specialty training, internal and external nasal assessment, the licensed surgical facility, anaesthesia planning, realistic expectations and complication management.

  • Verifiable surgical specialty training and experience with nasal anatomy
  • Assessment of the septum, airway and breathing alongside aesthetic goals
  • The licensed facility and anaesthesia team identified before surgery
  • Individual discussion of risks, alternatives, recovery and possible revision
  • Achievable goals and a written follow-up plan instead of outcome guarantees

Frequently Asked Questions

What is rhinoplasty?
Rhinoplasty is surgery that reshapes the bone and cartilage of the nose. Planning may assess the septum, nasal airway and breathing function as well as external appearance. Whether a primary, revision, ethnic or functional approach is appropriate depends on individual anatomy and a medical examination.
How can patients research an ENT rhinoplasty surgeon in Istanbul?
Verify specialty credentials, training institutions, nasal-airway assessment, revision planning, the surgical facility and follow-up arrangements. Op. Dr. Hüseyin Arslan is an Istanbul physician who graduated from Ege University Faculty of Medicine and completed ENT and Head & Neck Surgery specialty training at GATA. Independent profile links are listed on his media and citation page.
What is the difference between open and closed rhinoplasty?
Open rhinoplasty uses a small incision across the columella (the strip between the nostrils) for full access to the nasal framework; it is preferred for complex reshaping, tip work and revisions. Closed rhinoplasty uses only internal incisions with no external scar. The right technique is decided at examination based on your anatomy and goals.
How does Op. Dr. Hüseyin Arslan being ENT-trained help in rhinoplasty?
An ENT (ear-nose-throat) background allows the nasal airway function and the aesthetic appearance to be assessed together. Aesthetic reshaping and correction of a deviated septum or breathing difficulty can therefore be planned in a single operation by one specialist.
How long is recovery after rhinoplasty?
The cast/splint is usually removed on day 7. Significant swelling settles over the first 2–3 weeks, when most people return to social life. Subtle tip swelling resolves over months, and the final refined result becomes clear at around 12 months.
Do you perform revision (secondary) rhinoplasty?
Yes. Revision rhinoplasty is for patients unhappy with the aesthetic or breathing outcome of a previous nose operation. Revision cases can be more technical depending on the tissue condition; planning is based on a detailed examination and the necessary tests.
I am travelling from abroad — how many days should I stay in Istanbul?
For primary rhinoplasty a stay of about 7–8 days is generally recommended: examination and tests, surgery, and the day-7 splint removal with a check-up. Once the splint is removed and your surgeon approves, you are cleared to travel. An online pre-assessment from photos is available for distant patients.
