After completing my medical education at Ankara Gülhane Training and Research Faculty as the third-ranked student in my class, I chose the field of Plastic Surgery with the high score I achieved in the Medical Specialization Examination I took in the same year. Plastic surgery is a unique surgical discipline with fundamental principles that offer endless techniques shaped by the surgeon's skills and based on imagination. This discipline, which requires developing individualized solutions according to each patient's needs, constantly pushes the boundaries in providing people with a healthier and happier life. Creating special and unique treatment plans for patients is a challenging yet highly satisfying process. These qualities have been the most important factors in my decision to choose plastic surgery.

I completed my specialization training at the Department of Plastic Surgery at Kocaeli University after a challenging and instructive period. During this time, I gained comprehensive experience in all fields of plastic surgery, including emergency trauma, tumor reconstructions, burn injuries and reconstructions, maxillofacial traumas, pediatric plastic surgery, and aesthetic surgery.

During my residency, I earned an award for my research presented at the 45th National Congress of the Turkish Society of Plastic Surgery in the resident research competition. While working on my thesis, I had the opportunity to gain cadaver dissection experience, enhancing my knowledge of facial anatomy and surgery. Additionally, I participated in important courses such as the Basic Training School for Plastic Surgery Residency, the Turkish Society of Plastic Surgery’s Craniofacial Anomaly and Facial Bone Fractures Cadaver Course, and the Local Ethics Committee for Animal Experiments. I also had the opportunity to stay updated on the latest advancements in plastic surgery by attending numerous scientific congresses and meetings.

During my time at Kocaeli University, I carefully reviewed the existing literature and evaluated different approaches to address the challenging issue of ear keloids, which are notoriously difficult to treat and often cause significant distress for patients. As a result of these studies, I developed a new technique that provides an effective solution for treating ear keloids. Thanks to this technique, many patients were able to permanently eliminate ear keloids in a single session without recurrence. I presented this method at the 2023 National Congress of Plastic Surgery. Furthermore, this innovative technique was published in Annals of Plastic Surgery, one of the leading journals in the field of plastic surgery.

Due to my special interest in reconstructive and aesthetic surgery of the face and periorbital (around the eyes) region, I worked as an observer surgeon at the Plastic Surgery Clinic of Tokyo University in Japan, enhancing my knowledge and experience in this field. Exchanging knowledge with my colleagues there greatly expanded my perspective and allowed me to closely observe international practices in plastic surgery. I am currently continuing my professional career as an operator doctor.
