I started my specialization training at the University of Health Sciences, Ankara Training and Research Hospital’s Plastic, Reconstructive, and Aesthetic Surgery Department in 2012.

During my residency, I had ample opportunities to experience and perform a variety of aesthetic, reconstructive, and microsurgical procedures.

In 2014, I qualified for international proficiency in microsurgery after attending the International Microsurgery Course in Monza, Italy.

In 2015, as part of an international health service initiative organized by the Ministry of Health, I spent 10 days in Uzbekistan, where I performed numerous surgeries on cleft lips/palates and burn patients.

I have further enhanced my skills by participating in various domestic and international conventions and courses.

In 2017, I completed my specialization and received the title of Specialist in Plastic, Reconstructive, and Aesthetic Surgery.

Between 2017 and 2019, I worked at Aydın Atatürk Hospital, where I performed numerous aesthetic and reconstructive surgeries.

I also gained three years of experience in private clinics and aesthetic surgery hospitals in Aydın and Istanbul.

Since 2022, I have been working at my own private practice in Nisantası, Istanbul.

I am fluent in English and have an intermediate level of German.

I am a member of the Turkish Medical Association (TTB), the Turkish Plastic Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery Association (TPRECD), the Turkish Aesthetic Plastic Surgery Association (TEPCD), and the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ISAPS)
