Skull Aesthetics
 

Skull reshaping, also known as skull reshaping, can be done using many different methods. Cranioplasty surgery and plastic surgery that involves placing a specially produced 3D implant into the skull provide the most accurate results.

Later, I had the chance to work as a clinical research fellow (observer doctor) with Prof. Dr. Mustafa Başkaya at the University of Wisconsin in the USA. After returning from the USA, I worked at Okmeydanı Education and Research Hospital for another four years and started working as a specialist doctor at Medicalpark Bahçelievler Hospital in 2020.

With the excitement of transferring my experiences to future generations, I simultaneously continue my academic duty at Altınbaş University 

Prof. Dr. Yasef began his medical education at Istanbul University in 1973 and graduated from Istanbul University Cerrahpaşa Faculty of Medicine in 1979. He started his specialization in neurology at the same university in 1980 and became a neurologist in 1985. During his specialty training, he spent 6 months at Hacettepe University in the Neurology Department in Ankara.

After becoming a neurologist, he completed 3.5 years of obligatory government service, spending the first 1.5 years at the Iskenderun Navy Hospital and the next 2 years at Diyarbakır Social Security Hospital. He returned to Istanbul University in 1989.

Prof. Dr. Yasef worked abroad in the United States from 1990 - 1991, focusing on dementia and behavioral neurology.

In 1994, he became an Associate Professor and continued working at Istanbul University until 1999. Between 1999 - 2002, he worked at Florence Nightingale Hospital, and then at Kozyatağı Acıbadem Hospital from 2004 to 2013.

Since 2013, he has been a valuable part of the team at Florence Nightingale Hospital.
