Erkan Soylu
I am Erkan Soylu, I was born in Elazığ/Türkiye in 1977. I am married and the father of three children. After completing my primary and secondary education in Elazığ, the city where I was born, I won Cerrahpaşa Faculty of Medicine. After completing my medical faculty education in Istanbul, I won Haseki Training and Research Hospital otolaryngology department and completed my specialization in Istanbul between 2002-2007 and became an otolaryngologist. I worked in Ağrı/Doğubeyazıt State Hospital between 2008-2010 as an otolaryngologist. Then I returned to Istanbul to continue my education. I started to work as an assistant professor at Medipol University Hospital, a private university. After completing many national and international studies between 2012-2017, I was appointed as an associate professor at the same university. After this stage, I focused only on nasal health and aesthetics. I have conducted many studies on rhinoplasty. In 2022, I was appointed to the ENT department of Medipol University as a professor. I still continue my work here. I organize Rhinoplasty Fellowship programs in our university. To date, we have accepted and trained fellows from all over the world. And I organise “NoseCraft Live Surgery Course“ on rhinoplasty, every year.

Rhinoplasty surgery has been increasingly performed in recent years and is among the most commonly performed surgeries today. As a result of such a high number of rhinoplasty surgeries, complications and problems have also increased at a similar rate and revision surgeries have become important. The main limitations in revision rhinoplasty are mucosa and skin. Problems such as serious mucosa and skin losses, skin collapses due to infection and abscesses, nostril over resections, severe retractions and serious deformities due to skin necrosis are considered under the title of extreme revisions. Almost half of the rhinoplasties we perform in our clinic are revision cases. We have significant experience with such extreme revisions. We would like to share our experiences with the participants with case examples.
When it comes to rhinoplasty, nose reduction usually comes to mind, however, in recent years, patients with over reduced noses have been applying to us. A nose that is small compared to the patient's face looks worse than slightly large noses. Therefore, shrinked or innate small noses need to be extended to a size that is compatible with the face. We perform a significant number of nose lengthening and enlargement surgeries in our clinic. In nose enlargement surgeries, the skeleton needs to be extended, the mucosa and skin need to sufficiently cover the nose internally and externally. Nose lengthening usually involves more problems than reduction surgeries. With this video presentation, we want to share our methods for nose enlargement and overcoming the problems that arise with professionals.
The nose framework is an important structure that carries the nose, gives the nose its shape and provides breathing properly to pass through it. It is important for nasal surgeries to be performed it with appropriate strength and regularity. One of the most frequent and important reasons for revisions of nasal surgeries is an insufficiently strong and unbalanced nose framework. The reason for important pathologies such as nostril asymmetries, pinching deformity, Polly beak deformity, saddle nose deformity, and nasal valve collapse that we frequently see in revision cases is that the nose framework does not have sufficient strength and regularity. In almost all cases opened for revision, there is a need to correct the nose skeleton. Therefore, in revision surgeries, the most important stage of achieving aesthetic and functional progress is to reconstruct the nose framework. In this presentation, we would like to convey our approach and experience on this subject to the participants with both surgery videos and animation videos of our techniques, some of which have been published in international journals.
