About me

Dr. Ali Kavuzlu

A graduate of Hacettepe University Faculty of Medicine and a specialist in ENT and head & neck surgery. Since residency I have focused on nasal surgery, planning each case around facial proportions, skin type and breathing.

Board Certified

Turkish ENT Society Board Certificate (2014) and the national Facial Plastic Surgery School.

Scientific Work

11 publications in international journals; best research award in rhinology at the 2015 national congress.

Three Core Assessments in Nasal Surgery

In rhinoplasty planning, appearance, function and the person’s anatomy are never assessed in isolation from one another.

  1. Harmony With the Face

    The nose is not considered apart from the rest of the face. Profile, forehead, chin and facial proportions are examined together to see how the nasal shape relates to the whole.

  2. Nasal Breathing

    The examination is not limited to the outside. Internal structures, the airway and any breathing complaints are assessed separately.

  3. Individual Planning

    The surgical plan is built around nasal anatomy, skin and cartilage characteristics, facial proportions and the person’s expectations. The aim is not to apply a template but to design the plan that suits that face.

Common Questions About Rhinoplasty

Dr. Ali Kavuzlu explains in his own words how the nasal shape is decided, how skin thickness affects the result, what nasal fillers can and cannot do, and the most common worries before surgery. (Videos in Turkish.)

Nasal Simulation During Consultation

During your consultation, a digital simulation is made on front and profile photographs of your face. The planned change is discussed together on the image, so your expectations and the anatomical limits of your nose become clear in one picture. Dr. Ali Kavuzlu uses this method in his rhinoplasty consultations.

  • Changes to the nasal bridge, the tip and the profile are reviewed together on your photo.
  • Which expectations are achievable, and which go beyond anatomical limits, is discussed on the image.
  • Simulation is a planning and communication tool; it is not a guarantee of the surgical result.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions

Short answers to the questions we hear most about rhinoplasty and recovery. All questions are on the FAQ page.

FAQ

Rhinoplasty takes about 2–3 hours under general anaesthesia. Revision surgery may take 3–4 hours depending on the need for cartilage grafts.

Significant pain is not expected. A mild feeling of pressure on the first day is easily controlled with the prescribed medication.

The silicone splints that let you breathe are removed on day 3, and the external cast on day 7, both painlessly.

Most swelling settles within 2 weeks; about 70–80% of the shape is visible at 6 months and the final result at 12 months.
