Which Areas Does Özerk Demiralp Focus On?
Özerk Demiralp works across aesthetic, plastic and reconstructive surgery.
His primary interests include aesthetic rhinoplasty, breast augmentation, breast reduction and minimally invasive anti-aging treatments.
Facial aesthetics, body contouring and liposuction are also among his professional areas.
His microsurgery education provides additional experience in reconstructive surgery and tissue transfer procedures.
Rhinoplasty and Nasal Aesthetics
Rhinoplasty is one of his main areas of professional practice. Nasal bones, cartilage, bridge and tip are evaluated during planning.
Facial proportions are also important. The forehead, cheeks and chin can influence the desired nasal profile.
Nasal tip width, projection and shape can be considered during surgery.
Nasal function may also be assessed. Breathing difficulties, septal problems and previous nasal surgery can influence the treatment plan.
Patients who have undergone previous rhinoplasty may require revision surgery.
Breast Augmentation and Breast Reduction
Breast surgery is one of the important areas of his clinical work. Breast augmentation and breast reduction are among the main procedures.
For augmentation, chest structure, existing breast tissue and body proportions influence implant selection.
Implant size, shape and placement can be considered according to individual anatomy.
Breast reduction removes selected amounts of tissue and skin while reshaping the breast.
Breast symmetry and overall body proportions can also be evaluated during treatment planning.
Facial Aesthetics and Facelift
Facial aesthetics addresses age-related changes in skin, soft tissues and facial contours.
Facelift surgery can evaluate the middle and lower face, cheeks and jawline.
Neck changes can also be considered when they are part of the overall facial aging pattern.
Eyelid surgery addresses excess skin, fat and laxity around the upper and lower eyelids.
Facial treatment considers the relationship between the nose, eyes, cheeks, lips and chin.
Liposuction and Body Contouring
Liposuction reduces selected fat deposits from areas such as the abdomen, waist, hips and thighs.
Body contouring also considers fat distribution and skin elasticity.
When excess abdominal skin is present, tummy tuck may be evaluated as another surgical option.
Overall body proportions are considered rather than focusing only on one area.
The scope of treatment depends on anatomy, tissue characteristics and the patient's goals.
Minimally Invasive Anti-Aging Treatments
Minimally invasive anti-aging treatments address selected facial and skin changes with procedures that involve less intervention than conventional surgery.
Dermal fillers can provide volume support in selected facial areas. Lips, cheeks, chin and other regions can be evaluated.
Botox can reduce the appearance of expression-related lines. The forehead, glabella and areas around the eyes are common treatment areas.
Treatment selection depends on facial anatomy, skin characteristics and aesthetic expectations.
Previous fillers and Botox treatments should be discussed before new procedures.
Microsurgery and Reconstructive Surgery
Microsurgery involves precise work on small blood vessels and nerves. It is used in selected reconstructive and tissue transfer procedures.
Özerk Demiralp received microsurgery training at the University of Zurich.
Reconstructive surgery addresses tissue loss and structural problems caused by trauma, tumors, congenital conditions and other issues.
Treatment planning considers function as well as appearance.
The appropriate technique depends on the location and extent of tissue loss and the patient's overall condition.

His professional development includes participation in national and international congresses and training programs.
He received plastic surgery training at Harvard Medical School and later studied tissue and cell culture at Brigham and Women's Hospital.
