Which Areas Does Arda Küçükgüven Focus On?

Arda Küçükgüven focuses particularly on facial aesthetic surgery and rhinoplasty. His main areas include rhinoplasty, facelift, neck lift, eyelid surgery, brow lift, lip lift and chin surgery.

His rhinoplasty practice includes open and closed rhinoplasty, septorhinoplasty, revision rhinoplasty and ultrasonic rhinoplasty.

Facial surgery includes deep plane facelift, deep plane neck lift and midface lift.

Chin surgery, facial implants, fat transfer, lip lift, otoplasty, facial injections and buccal fat removal are also among his professional areas.

Breast augmentation, breast reduction and breast lift are additional surgical procedures within his practice.

Rhinoplasty and Nasal Aesthetics

Rhinoplasty is one of the main areas of his professional practice. The nasal bones, cartilage, bridge and tip are evaluated during surgical planning.

Both external appearance and nasal function can be considered. Breathing difficulties, septal anatomy and internal nasal structures may influence the treatment plan.

Closed, open, ultrasonic and revision rhinoplasty are among the surgical approaches that can be evaluated.

Revision rhinoplasty requires careful assessment because previous surgery may alter the nasal cartilage, bone and soft tissues.

Facial proportions also play an important role. The relationship between the nose, forehead, cheeks and chin can influence the desired nasal profile.

Deep Plane Facelift and Neck Lift

Deep plane facelift is a facial rejuvenation approach that works on deeper soft tissue layers of the face. The middle and lower face can be assessed during treatment planning.

Deep plane neck lift focuses on changes involving the neck and the area beneath the chin.

Skin quality, facial anatomy and soft tissue changes are evaluated before surgery.

The extent of treatment varies according to the degree of tissue laxity and the patient's facial structure.

Facial proportions are considered alongside age-related changes when developing the surgical plan.

Eyelid and Brow Surgery

Eyelid surgery addresses age-related changes involving the upper and lower eyelids. Excess skin, fat and soft tissue laxity can all be evaluated.

Upper eyelid procedures can address excess skin and tissue. Lower eyelid surgery can address under-eye bags and other changes.

Brow lift procedures focus on the position of the eyebrows and the upper facial region.

Gliding brow lift is among the techniques that can be considered for selected patients.

The eyes and eyebrows are assessed together with the surrounding facial structures rather than as isolated areas.

Lip and Chin Surgery

Lip lift changes the distance between the upper lip and the nose. Lip shape, facial proportions and upper lip length are considered before surgery.

Treatment is planned according to facial anatomy and the desired change.

Chin surgery addresses selected concerns involving the lower facial profile and chin position.

Facial implants can also be considered to modify contour or volume in selected areas.

The relationship between the nose, lips, chin and cheeks is important when planning combined facial procedures.

Midface Lift, Fat Transfer and Buccal Fat Removal

Midface lift addresses selected changes in the cheek and middle-face region.

Facial fat transfer uses fat harvested from another part of the body and places it into selected facial areas.

Cheeks, temples and other areas affected by volume loss can be evaluated for fat transfer.

Buccal fat removal reduces selected fat tissue from the cheek area. Existing cheek volume and overall facial structure are assessed first.

Not every facial anatomy is suitable for buccal fat removal. Careful evaluation is therefore important before treatment.

Breast Surgery

Breast surgery includes augmentation, reduction and lift procedures. Treatment planning considers existing breast tissue, chest structure and overall body proportions.

Breast augmentation evaluates implant characteristics according to anatomy and desired volume.

Breast reduction removes selected amounts of tissue and skin while reshaping the breast.

Breast lift repositions and reshapes sagging tissue.

The surgical approach varies according to skin quality, breast tissue and individual expectations.

Reconstructive and Cranio-Maxillofacial Surgery

Reconstructive surgery addresses tissue loss and structural problems resulting from trauma, congenital conditions and tumors.

Cleft lip and palate surgery is among the reconstructive areas within his professional background.

Chin and jaw surgery, facial trauma and other cranio-maxillofacial conditions can also require reconstructive evaluation.

Skin cancer surgery may result in tissue defects that require reconstruction.

Treatment planning considers anatomy, function and the extent of tissue loss.
