Clinic Guler Gamze Eren (Dr. GÜLER GAMZE EREN)

The beauty of the female and male body has always played an important role in life. Here you can improve your body and become slimmer, younger and even more attractive. In the clinic you can do:

• liposuction – the need to remove subcutaneous fat from specific areas of the body using thin cannulas. Liposuction is NOT a weight loss or weight reduction surgery. If you are overweight, it is recommended to first lose weight through diet and exercise. The duration of the surgery varies depending on the area being treated, and is performed under general anesthesia (can be combined with other surgeries). Special corsets are placed on the area being treated.

  Possible risks of liposuction surgery: possible contour irregularities, swelling, bleeding, infection, bruising, numbness, fat embolism – this is a condition in which fat particles enter the vein and cause occlusion of the vein, it can block the vessels of the lungs or heart, this disease requires urgent intervention.

• A tummy tuck is recommended if there is a sagging abdomen, excessive weight gain or loss. A tummy tuck removes excess fat and loose skin under the belly button, and tightens the relaxed abdominal muscles along the midline. Tummy tuck surgery is not specifically performed for people with intra-abdominal fat to lose weight, it should be remembered that tummy tuck surgery cannot replace weight loss with diet and exercise.

  The patient should have realistic expectations about the surgery. Before the surgery, the doctor will examine you and select the appropriate surgical technique for you. Depending on the condition of the excess skin, a short scar (mini abdominoplasty) or a classic abdominoplasty is preferable. Smoking should be stopped a few weeks before the surgery, as it impairs blood circulation and can cause wound problems, negatively affecting healing.

  The operation lasts on average 2-3 hours under general anesthesia. Drains are used to prevent blood accumulation, after the drains are removed, only a bandage and a corset remain.

  Potential risks: infection, bleeding, seroma (fluid accumulation in the surgical area: this will regress with periodic follow-up and drainage of the fluid). Loss of sensation in the abdominal skin: this may be temporary or permanent. The surgery leaves permanent scars in the lower abdomen. The stitches are removed after 2 weeks, and the corset must be worn for 4-6 weeks.

  The recovery process after a tummy tuck is slow, and full recovery can take months. Scars begin to change color after the 6th month.

• Arm lift can be seen in the process of aging or excessive weight loss, sagging skin tissue on the inner arm. The sagging, which is more noticeable when raising the arm, cannot be hidden by sleeveless clothing. During the arm lift surgery, sagging skin tissue and a small amount of fatty tissue on the inner arm are removed, this surgery is aimed at making the arms look younger and more beautiful. Before the surgery, the doctor will conduct an examination and select the appropriate surgical technique for you. You should stop smoking a few weeks before the surgery, and blood thinners should not be used 1-2 weeks before the surgery.

  The operation lasts on average 2-3 hours under general anesthesia. One day of hospitalization is enough. You can return to everyday life within 1 week. Wearing a corset for 4-6 weeks is recommended.

  Potential risks: infection, bleeding, swelling, numbness of the skin of the arms, scarring. In patients who have lost excess weight, arm lift surgery is often combined with a tummy tuck or thigh lift.

• Thigh lift surgery is performed when there is sagging of the inner thigh, usually caused by excessive weight loss, this can be structural or age-related. Sagging inner thighs are unsightly and at the same time the friction of the skin against each other can cause irritation and hygiene problems. Thigh lift surgery removes excess, sagging skin tissue and a small amount of fatty tissue, it is not a leg “thinning” surgery. Incisions may be only in the groin, but sometimes they reach the inner thigh. Smoking should be stopped a few weeks before surgery.

  The surgery takes an average of 2-3 hours under general anesthesia. Drains are used to prevent blood from pooling, after the drains are removed you will only have a bandage and a corset. Light to medium compression stockings should be worn for 4-6 weeks after surgery. You can return to your daily routine within 7-10 days. For active sports, you should wait an average of 4 weeks.

  Possible risks: infection, bleeding, suture divergence, swelling in the legs.

One of the most popular plastic surgeries is breast augmentation/reduction/lifting. All women want firm and beautiful breasts, and the Guler Gamze Eren Clinic can provide the desired result. The following surgeries are performed:

• Breast augmentation is a surgery that increases the volume of the breasts and improves their shape using implants. The goal of breast augmentation surgery is to try to achieve a more symmetrical and aesthetically pleasing appearance that enhances the natural proportions of the female body. The implants used are selected according to the patient’s weight, height, chest and mammary gland structure, and the size of the desired implant is determined by a decision made jointly by the patient and doctor. Deformities of the breast due to breastfeeding and weight gain can be corrected with implants in combination with breast lift surgery. The surgery takes an average of 2-3 hours under general anesthesia, requiring 1-2 days of hospitalization. Breast augmentation surgery usually involves an incision under the breast, less often around the nipple, the color of the scar becomes lighter over time and almost disappears.

  For 1-1.5 months after the operation, it is necessary to wear a special corset bra, drains are usually removed within 1-3 days.

  Possible risks: infection that can be treated with antibiotics, in more severe cases it is necessary to remove the implant placed.

• Breast reduction is also a popular operation. Having large breasts puts extra strain on your shoulders and back, i.e. your spine, and is also a health problem. This is an operation in which the breasts are shaped by removing excess fat, breast tissue, and skin from the chest. The breasts are reduced and also lifted. Before the operation, you should check the health of your breasts with an ultrasound or mammogram. Smoking should be stopped, as it can disrupt blood circulation in the nipples, causing wounds, drying out of the nipple and areola. The operation takes an average of 2-4 hours under general anesthesia and requires a day of hospitalization.

  ​Scars are left around the nipple and in the area that goes under the breast and into the inframammary fold. Depending on the size of the breasts and the technique, the scars will be in the shape of an inverted T or a lollipop. A corset-type bra should be worn for 4-6 weeks after the operation.

  Potential risks: infection, blood accumulation, suture divergence, loss of nipple sensitivity, asymmetry between the mammary glands. Breastfeeding may be impaired after breast reduction surgery and this rate is decreasing with the advent of new methods.

• Breast lift is a surgery performed due to excessive weight loss or weight gain, pregnancy, which causes sagging breasts. The goal of breast lift surgery is to change the shape of the breasts by changing the shape of the breasts due to gravity and age, to give the breasts a more youthful appearance. The change in appearance after surgery will not solve some of the problems you will face in life, but this surgery will definitely give you more self-confidence. Before the surgery, you will be examined by a doctor who will inform you about the method of obtaining a breast shape suitable for your figure. If the breasts have lost a lot of volume, a breast prosthesis can be used along with the lift. Smoking should be stopped a few weeks before the surgery. The surgery lasts on average 2-4 hours under general anesthesia. Hospital stay is 1 day.

  Possible risks: infection, bleeding. Less common are asymmetry of breast size, asymmetry of nipple position and loss of nipple sensitivity. A special bra must be worn for 4-6 weeks, heavy loads on the arms are not recommended for 4 weeks. The operation leaves scars around the nipple and under the breast, they decrease over time.

One of the main goals of almost every successful person is to look attractive and stay young for as long as possible. An open and not tired look, a beautiful nose, facial features, all these operations help to look even more impressive.

• Blepharoplasty is an operation to remove sagging skin and bags under the eyes. Early signs of aging appear on the eyelids, excess skin and sagging of the upper eyelids, sagging of the lower eyelid and bags under the eyes make the furrows under the eyes more distinct, and the person’s face more tired and visually “add” several years. The goal of aesthetic eyelid surgery is to remove excess skin and fatty tissue from the upper eyelid, strengthen the membrane that causes the formation of bags on the lower eyelid and remove excess tissue. Thus, the patient looks younger and acquires a healthy appearance. Scars remain invisible, since the technique allows you to “hide” them in the fold of the upper eyelid and under the lash line, the absence of scars is also ensured by an experienced doctor. The operation can take 1-2 hours depending on the procedure performed, is performed under general or local anesthesia. There is no need to stay in the hospital. Swelling begins to subside approximately 3 days after the operation, and bruises can last 7-10 days. The stitches are removed at the end of the 1st week. Removing excess skin from the lower eyelid may cause the lower eyelid to droop, and removing excess fat from the upper eyelid may cause dimples to appear with age, but the clinic’s doctors always give advice on the correct technique to achieve the desired result. Eyelid surgery can also be combined with other surgeries.
• eyebrow lift – the first signs of aging are visible to the eyes. The elasticity of the skin decreases, the eyelids become sagging. The formation of wrinkles on the forehead, combined with a “sad” or “tired” look, combined with vertical lines in the middle of the eyebrows play an important role in a person’s appearance.
  The first effects of aging begin around our eyes. The elasticity of the skin decreases, flabbiness begins on the forehead and eyelids. Wrinkles have formed on the forehead; a sleepy, sad or tired look, vertical lines in the middle of the eyebrows cause an angry look. The main reason for the appearance of drooping eyelids is the drooping of the outer side of the eyebrow. Upper face surgery is usually performed in combination. At the initial stages of aging, Botox is also used to lift the eyebrows, surgery is resorted to later, while plastic surgery will provide a permanent effect for a longer period. Brow lift with Botox lifts the eyebrows by 1-2 mm, acts quickly, the effect is temporary, it is necessary to repeat the procedure periodically.

  Brow lift surgery takes an average of 1-2 hours under general anesthesia. Scars are invisible, remain on the vocal part of the head (in the hair). Sutures are removed after 1 week. Hospitalization is not required. After surgery, asymmetry is possible, and temporary numbness in the middle of the head may occur.

• Rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure to change the shape of the nose. Rhinoplasty is also often done due to existing breathing problems. With the help of aesthetic nose surgery, you can change the width of the nose, the shape of the nasal skeleton or tip, and also change the angle between the nose and the upper lip. The surgeon’s goal is to achieve a natural nose shape that suits your appearance. Before the operation, the reasons for changing the shape of the nose, as well as the desired result, are discussed. You plan the operation and discuss the recovery process with the doctor. The duration of the operation is on average 2-3 hours under general anesthesia, in more complex cases, the time in the operating room may increase. When performing open rhinoplasty, a small incision is made in front of the nose, the skin tissue is separated from the underlying nasal skeleton, after the formation of the cartilaginous-bony structures of the nose, the skin is closed again. A splint is applied to the nose, and a tampon is placed in the nose. Intranasal tampons used today allow you to breathe while remaining inside. Possible risks: infection, bleeding, blood clot.

  Immediately after the operation, swelling and bruising around the nose and eyes are possible. To reduce this, you need to lie with your head elevated and periodically apply cold compresses. On average, everything disappears within a week. After 5-7 days, the stitches are removed along with the tampon inside and the splint on the bridge of the nose, and the patient returns to everyday life. If a person wears glasses, it is recommended to use contact lenses for 6-8 weeks. The final result is formed from 6 to 12 months.

• otoplasty (aesthetic medicine of the auricle) – correction of problems of the auricle (protruding ears). The problem is caused by an increase in the angle of the auricle. Most often, because of this problem, children are bullied at school, which can cause psychological trauma and affect the further development of personality. It is recommended to perform an operation to correct the shape of the ears before the start of the school year. Ear surgery is usually performed under general anesthesia, adults can also use local anesthesia. The average time in the operating room is 1.5 hours. The operation begins with an incision in the skin of the back of the ear. As soon as the cartilage tissue is open, the skin is pulled together, thereby correcting the angle between the ear and the base of the skull. After the “correction”, the skin is closed with absorbable sutures, there is no need to remove the sutures. In the first days after the operation, there may be a feeling of numbness, pain and discomfort. The first two weeks, bandages are used, it is also recommended to use a bandage.

Potential risks: infection, suture divergence, numbness, scarring, allergic reactions, asymmetry and relapse. Special attention should be paid to wound care in the postoperative period.
