NEW TRENDS IN AESTHETIC SURGERY
Do you feel that your nose doesn’t look quite right, your breasts are too small, or you’re constantly bothered by your protruding ears? Are you struggling with fear of surgery or dissatisfaction with your appearance? Great news! There are continuous advancements and innovations in the field of aesthetics worldwide, including in our country. These new developments can help you feel more confident about your appearance while overcoming your fears. We’ve researched the latest trends and innovations in aesthetic surgery that are transforming many people’s lives and looks.
SAY GOODBYE TO PROTRUDING EARS
Have you avoided tying your hair up for years to hide your protruding ears? Do you wish you could style your hair differently without worrying about your ears? The solution is now easier than ever. Correcting protruding ears has become one of the most requested aesthetic surgeries. In the past, after ear correction surgery, patients would need to wear bandages for 15-30 days, avoid bathing for about 10 days, and deal with scars that required concealment, depending on the approach.
With advancements in understanding ear anatomy, surgical techniques, and technology, it’s now possible to correct protruding ears using only needle punctures, with cartilage reshaped using lasers if necessary. Patients can shower the very next day, without the need for bandages or dressing. No visible scars, swelling, or bruising occur after surgery, and more natural and lasting results can be achieved with minimal trauma.
THE NEW MIRACLE OF AESTHETICS: REFINED NOSES
Did someone mention noses? The nose, the most prominent feature of the face, is one of the most requested areas for aesthetic procedures. Today, nose surgeries are highly refined, often involving the use of lasers, particularly for internal nasal adjustments. Computer-assisted lasers are used to shape cartilage with precision.
NOBODY WILL KNOW YOU HAD SURGERY
“In the past, nose surgeries were more challenging, with long recovery periods and patients needing to take 7-10 days off from social life. However, with advancements in understanding the internal structure of the nose, tampon use has been eliminated, and many patients no longer require nasal splints. The comfort level for patients post-surgery has increased dramatically. We now use minimal techniques to correct only the necessary areas, which means we can make all the corrections we used to, but without altering the anatomy. The results are much more natural and lasting. So much so, that even a specialist examining the patient may not realize they’ve had surgery. Swelling and bruising are also minimized by carefully addressing only the required areas.”
EYE REJUVENATION WITH LASER IS NOW POSSIBLE
Our eyes are incredibly important—they allow us to captivate others, impress them, and even make people fall in love. Therefore, it’s no surprise that significant advancements have been made in eye-related aesthetics. With the support of minimal surgery and advanced laser techniques, it’s now possible to achieve the same results with much smaller incisions and little to no scarring, offering more natural and lasting outcomes.
In particular, issues related to upper and lower eyelid deformities can be corrected with different laser techniques. Bags and wrinkles are treated using a combination of minimal surgery and laser technology. Recovery is swift, allowing patients to return to their daily life quickly. Since the procedures are aligned with the anatomy and cause of the deformity, the results are very natural.
REVOLUTION IN BREAST AESTHETICS: LIFTING WITH YOUR OWN TISSUE
Interest in aesthetic surgery is growing day by day. Men are also increasingly opting for aesthetic procedures, and the latest development has come in breast aesthetics. The “Lifting with Your Own Tissue” technique is a method that addresses breast sagging and loss of tissue firmness with minimal scarring and more permanent results. Using this new method, breast aesthetics can now be performed with minimal scarring and longer-lasting results.
The “Lifting with Your Own Tissue” technique involves utilizing the part of the breast that extends toward the armpit. The tissue is both lifted upward and inward, tightened by folding over itself, and firmed to provide a natural lift. Since the breast’s own tissue supports the lift and the weight-bearing portion remains beneath the skin, much less scarring is left behind. The results are far more permanent compared to older methods, especially for issues like breast tissue spreading toward the armpit while lying down or appearing spaced apart. This method also allows for breast reduction if necessary. It is effective for addressing both the structural laxity in young patients and the sagging and loosening due to aging or breastfeeding in older patients. The technique provides a natural bra-like effect, allowing patients to return to daily life—and even swimming—within just two weeks.
ALL PROCEDURES BECOME ‘MINI’ WITH THE RIGHT IMPLANT
In breast augmentation surgeries, selecting the appropriate implant for the patient’s chest and breast structure significantly impacts the success of the procedure and enhances patient satisfaction. Nowadays, these types of surgeries can be performed with minimal incisions.
ONE INCISION FOR BOTH BREASTS AND ABDOMEN
Some procedures shown on TV are performed for show purposes. For instance, certain endoscopic techniques that involve entering through the belly button only apply to saline-filled implants. However, for women who have given birth at a young age, have significantly reduced skin elasticity in the abdomen, and have sagging and empty breasts due to breast atrophy, a procedure called dermalipectomy (tummy tuck) can be combined with breast augmentation and lift without making any incisions in the breast.
MINI FACELIFT
Facelifts have been significantly minimized nowadays. With very few incisions, mini lifting techniques are applied, complemented by fat or filler injections. Neck lifts are rarely performed as a standalone procedure; instead, mini facelifts are preferred. The incisions for neck lifts are hidden behind the ears and within the hairline, and the procedure involves tightening the front neck muscles and lifting the subcutaneous connective tissue. Sometimes, this can be done in conjunction with liposuction. By contouring the neck and face in this way, individuals can achieve a very aesthetically pleasing appearance.
