Prof. Dr. Murat Topdağ ENT Surgery & Medical Aesthetics (KBB)

Prof. Dr. Murat Topdağ ENT Surgery & Medical Aesthetics is a private single-doctor practice in Istanbul's Ataşehir district. The clinic specializes in otorhinolaryngology and head and neck surgery on the Asian side of the city. Prof. Dr. Murat Topdağ and Dr. Özlem Topdağ lead operations.

Specialized Medical Background

Prof. Dr. Murat Topdağ graduated from Istanbul University Cerrahpaşa Faculty of Medicine's English department. He completed his otolaryngology residency at Kocaeli University. His career includes positions at Acıbadem Altunizade Hospital and Memorial Göztepe Hospital.

The practice has a strong academic foundation. Prof. Dr. Topdağ has authored over 30 international SCI articles. His research appears in Otology & Neurotology and the Journal of Craniofacial Surgery. This academic focus supports function-preserving surgical planning for complex cases.

Advanced Rhinoplasty Techniques

The clinic offers several surgical and non-surgical options for nasal correction. Surgeons perform structural, preservation, and ethnic rhinoplasty. They also handle revision procedures for patients with prior unsuccessful surgeries. Non-surgical options include hyaluronic acid fillers and Botox for subtle changes.

Specialists use Piezo ultrasonic technology for precise bone shaping. This method relies on ultrasonic waves to cut bone tissue. Because it spares surrounding vessels and nerves, patients experience less swelling and trauma. Many patients return home the same day.

Surgical planning involves 3D computer simulations. Patients can see potential post-operative results during consultation. For closed rhinoplasty, surgeons make incisions only inside the nostrils. This prevents visible scarring and speeds up healing.

Head and Neck Oncology

The clinic treats various malignant conditions of the head and neck. Specialists manage cancers affecting these areas:

• Tongue and oral cavity
• Larynx (voice box)
• Thyroid and salivary glands
• Paranasal sinuses and nasal cavity
• Ear and inner ear tumors

Treatment plans match tumor stage and patient health. Options include surgical excision, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy. For advanced tongue cancer, the clinic offers immunotherapy to boost the immune response. Thyroid cancer care follows a multidisciplinary approach with ENT and endocrinology specialists.

Otolaryngology and Rehabilitation Services

Beyond surgery, the practice addresses chronic ENT conditions and balance disorders. The team manages deviated septums, nasal polyps, and chronic sinusitis. Functional surgeries like endoscopic septoplasty correct internal deviations to improve breathing. Recovery typically requires nasal splints for about one week.

Patients with peripheral vertigo receive specialized balance recovery services. The clinic provides vestibular rehabilitation for conditions like BPPV and vestibular neuritis. This program combines symptom relief with long-term exercises to restore stable movement.

Diagnostics and Technology

The clinic uses diverse imaging and diagnostic tools for accurate treatment planning:

• CT and MRI scans
• PET/CT imaging
• Laryngoscopy for throat examinations
• Thyroid ultrasound and biopsies
• Nasal endoscopy and audiometry

Physicians review these results to determine if surgery or non-invasive management is needed. Before any procedure, patients undergo a full health evaluation covering allergies and surgical history.

Services for International Patients

The clinic provides medical services in English for international visitors. Medical reports and educational materials are available in English. The team offers accommodation support for out-of-town patients. Most surgical patients receive home-care instructions and follow-up schedules before discharge.
