Operations and conditions

Drawn from the areas of interest Dr. Songül Dursun 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. Songül Dursun, 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.

It is a written reply rather than a medical consultation, and a consultation is still the thing that settles a plan. Send a question.
