Plastic and Aesthetic Surgery Procedures

Aesthetic surgery covers procedures involving the face, breasts and body. Treatment planning considers anatomy, existing tissue and the patient's aesthetic goals.

Rhinoplasty evaluates the nasal bones, cartilage, nasal bridge and nasal tip. Overall facial proportions can also influence the surgical approach.

Breast surgery considers chest structure, existing breast tissue and body proportions. Augmentation, reduction and lift procedures can be planned accordingly.

Body contouring can involve the abdomen, waist, hips, arms and thighs. Liposuction and tummy tuck are among the main procedures.

Dr. Mustafa Ercan's Breast Surgery Work

Breast aesthetics is one of the main areas of his clinical practice. Breast augmentation, reduction and lift procedures are planned according to individual anatomy.

For augmentation, chest structure, existing breast tissue and body proportions can influence implant selection and placement.

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

Breast lift focuses on reshaping sagging breast tissue. In selected cases, augmentation and lift can be evaluated together.

Breast reconstruction addresses restoration of breast tissue after cancer or other forms of breast loss. Microsurgical tissue transfer can be used in selected reconstructive procedures.

Rhinoplasty and Facial Surgery

Rhinoplasty reshapes the nose while considering facial proportions. The nasal bridge, tip, bones and cartilage can all be evaluated.

Facial harmony is an important consideration when planning nasal surgery. The relationship between the nose, forehead, cheeks and chin can influence the overall result.

Nasal breathing can also be part of the assessment. Structural problems inside the nose may need to be considered during surgery.

Facial aesthetic procedures also include facelift and eyelid surgery. Fat grafting can add volume to selected areas using fat taken from another part of the patient's body.

Reconstructive Surgery and Microsurgery

Reconstructive surgery addresses tissue loss caused by trauma, tumors, burns or other conditions. This is an important part of Mustafa Ercan's professional background.

He received advanced experience in free tissue transfer and breast reconstruction in Germany.

Microsurgery involves precise work on small blood vessels and nerves. It can be used in tissue transfer, hand surgery and complex reconstruction.

Reconstructive surgery considers function as well as appearance. The treatment plan depends on the location and extent of tissue damage.

Hand and Wrist Surgery

Hand surgery is one of Mustafa Ercan's specialist fields. His work includes hand and wrist trauma, fractures, tendon injuries, nerve injuries and selected structural conditions.

Wrist arthroscopy is another area of practice. Small incisions and a camera can be used to evaluate and treat selected joint conditions.

Tendon and nerve injuries require assessment of the damaged structures, injury duration and functional impairment.

Microsurgical training provides additional experience in delicate vascular and nerve repair procedures involving the hand and fingers.

Tummy Tuck, Liposuction and Body Aesthetics

Body aesthetic procedures include tummy tuck, liposuction, arm lift and thigh lift.

Liposuction reduces selected fat deposits from areas such as the abdomen, waist, hips and thighs.

Tummy tuck surgery addresses excess abdominal skin and fat. Changes following pregnancy or significant weight loss can also be evaluated.

Arm and thigh lift procedures address excess skin and soft tissue in these areas.

The surgical plan depends on skin elasticity, tissue excess, anatomy and body proportions.

Eyelid and Ear Aesthetics

Eyelid surgery can address excess skin and fat around the upper and lower eyelids. Age-related changes in the eye area can also be evaluated.

Upper eyelid surgery can address skin excess, while lower eyelid surgery can address under-eye bags and tissue laxity.

Otoplasty reshapes or repositions the external ear. Prominent ears and differences in ear folds or angles can be considered during evaluation.

The surgical technique depends on individual ear anatomy and facial proportions.
