Operations and conditions
Drawn from the areas of interest Dr. Arda Akgün states. Each one links to the guide that explains it: what the operation does, what recovery looks like and what to ask before you agree to it.
Operative photographs
Five noses operated on by Dr. Arda Akgün, photographed on the table at the start and again at the end of the operation. They are published as supplied: cropped, but not retouched, graded or lightened.
What you are looking at, and what you are not
The second frame in each pair is the nose at the end of the operation, not the nose the patient lives with. Swelling and bruising follow the operation rather than precede it, most of the swelling settles over the first few months, and the shape is not final for around a year. Skin thickness, the starting anatomy and the reason for operating all differ between these patients and between them and you. What recovery actually looks like sets out the timeline these photographs sit at the very start of.
Asking Dr. Arda Akgün a question
A message sent through this site reaches Dr. Arda Akgün. Say what bothers you about your nose, whether you have had surgery before and whether you have trouble breathing through either side, and you will get a more useful first answer. It is a written reply rather than a medical consultation, and a consultation is still the thing that settles a plan. Send a question.
