Follow the Rhinoplusty care pathway from photographs and a written plan to surgery in Istanbul and follow-up after you return home.
Rhinoplusty is the nose surgery practice of Op. Dr. Kemal Caner Delioğlu, ENT and head and neck surgeon, in Etiler, Istanbul; the name means rhinoplasty plus the system around it. Rhinoplusty is spelled with a u and is not a typo of rhinoplasty. The process links assessment, a personal written plan, care in Istanbul and follow-up at home.
- Rhinoplusty names the care system around nasal surgery.
- Photographs and medical information are reviewed before travel.
- The Istanbul stay has a clinical timeline and practical coordination.
- Follow-up continues after the patient returns home.
What happens before you travel?
Before travel, the Rhinoplusty team reviews photographs, medical history and goals. The first step is to clarify whether the question concerns appearance, breathing or both. Rhinoplusty is the care-system name and is not a typo of rhinoplasty, the operation.
The discussion identifies what can be considered from photographs and what needs examination in Istanbul. Read the Rhinoplusty information page and send initial information through online nasal analysis.
The written plan before booking
- Send front, profile and lower-angle photographs with relevant history.
- Describe breathing concerns, previous operations, medicines and goals.
- Discuss the possible operation, limits, dates and required stay.
- Keep the written plan and bring the same questions to consultation.
What happens in Istanbul, day by day?
In Istanbul, the plan is checked against examination and consultation. Op. Dr. Kemal Caner Delioğlu is an ENT and head and neck surgeon in Etiler, Istanbul. If suitable, the operation is planned around both nasal shape and breathing.
| Stage | What it covers |
|---|---|
| Arrival and consultation | Examination, goals, history and confirmation of the plan |
| Surgery day | The agreed nasal operation and immediate instructions |
| Early review | Healing assessment and splint removal when applicable |
| Return home | Written instructions and follow-up communication |
Practical support in Istanbul is part of the Rhinoplusty system but does not replace medical judgment. The surgeon profile explains the specialty.
When is the splint removed and when do you fly?
A splint, when used, is removed at an early review chosen by the clinical team. Swelling and congestion can remain. Plan the return flight only after healing, the review date and general condition have been discussed.
- Keep the first days free from unnecessary commitments.
- Follow nasal-care and medication instructions.
- Do not judge the final shape during early swelling.
- Ask before changing the flight date or adding strenuous activity.
How does follow-up work after you go home?
Follow-up continues after leaving Istanbul. Share updates, questions and requested photographs so healing can be assessed. If a symptom is severe or urgent, contact local medical services.
Follow-up provides continuity, not a promise of a particular result. Healing changes over weeks and months, and reviews depend on the operation and the individual.
What does the timeline look like through month 12?
- Before travel: photographs, history, goals and a written plan.
- In Istanbul: examination, consultation and confirmation.
- Early recovery: instructions, review and splint removal when applicable.
- After returning: online follow-up and healing questions.
- Months 3 to 12: gradual change is assessed without judging too early.
For candidacy questions, use contact or online analysis. A brand name cannot decide whether surgery is appropriate.
