Educated at Gazi University Faculty of Medicine, Dr. Erol built his foundation in one of Turkey's respected medical institutions. His training reflects a background rooted in head and neck anatomy — a discipline central to both nasal and facial surgery.
Dr. Erol's clinical emphasis bridges two closely related fields. He performs primary and revision rhinoplasty as well as facial rejuvenation procedures, giving him a broad understanding of facial structure and proportion.
The deep plane facelift sits at the center of his facial rejuvenation work. This technique repositions the deeper tissue layers of the face rather than simply tightening the skin, aiming for a natural, longer-lasting result.
His surgical philosophy, described on his practice website, centers on individualized and natural-looking outcomes. Every aesthetic procedure, in his framing, shares a common goal — results tailored to the individual patient rather than a single standardized look.
Dr. Erol works across both open and closed approaches in his rhinoplasty practice, using piezo (ultrasonic bone-shaping) and drill techniques since 2015. This range of methods reflects the adaptability he brings to facial surgery more broadly.
Ankara, the capital of Turkey, offers a distinct medical setting. As an administrative and university city, it carries a quieter, more clinical character than Istanbul — appealing to patients who prefer a calmer environment for surgery and recovery.
Dr. Erol holds membership in TSPRAS, the Turkish Society of Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery. This affiliation connects him to a national community of surgeons working in aesthetic and reconstructive fields.
His approach to facial aging reflects the modern shift toward tissue repositioning. Rather than pulling skin taut, the deep plane method releases and elevates the SMAS layer (the superficial musculoaponeurotic system, a sheet of muscle and connective tissue beneath the skin).
Patient care in his practice extends across the full surgical journey — from initial consultation through recovery and follow-up. Recovery from a deep plane facelift typically unfolds over several weeks, with results maturing over months.
For international patients, Dr. Erol's practice reflects a growing pattern in Turkish facial surgery. Patients have described traveling from abroad for procedures with him, drawn by the country's established reputation in aesthetic surgery.
Dr. Erol maintains a presence on Instagram under the handle dr.ozanerol, where his practice shares educational and case-based content. This visibility reflects the broader trend of surgeons documenting their aesthetic work publicly.
With more than a decade of experience, Dr. Ozan Erol represents an established practitioner within Ankara's facial surgery community. His combined focus on rhinoplasty and facial rejuvenation positions him among surgeons who treat the face as an integrated whole.
For patients considering a deep plane facelift in Ankara, Dr. Erol offers a practice grounded in board-recognized training, a decade of surgical work, and a stated commitment to natural, individualized results.
What recent patients say
5.0 / 5 · 11 Google reviewsDr ozan erol did my mid face temporal brow lift and rhinoplasty and the results are already exceeding my expectations one week post op. He was attentive, told me what was possible and what wasn’t, set realistic expectations, explained everything to me carefully and made the whole process very comforting. His communication and aftercare have been brilliant and overall I would definitely recommend him to anyone considering facial aesthetic surgeries :)
I am so happy and grateful about my surgery with Dr Ozan Erol. He is truly a magician! I was amazed by his talent and professionalism but also by his kindness. His team was amazing! The post-op follow up was also great. Thank you again for everything 🫶🏻
I traveled to Istanbul from Australia to see Dr Ozan Erol for a septorhinoplasty. I did lots of research before I came to my decision of choosing him and I’m SO glad I did. He has a huge knowledge and qualification background and he makes functionality a priority. He creates work that actually fits your face and importantly, he is very attentive post op. I have been in daily talks with him for over 1 month and he does his best to keep caring for you once you’ve left the country. Thank you Dr Ozan Erol.. don’t ever change because you are one of a kind
My experience with Dr. Ozan Erol was truly amazing, and I would recommend him without hesitation. From the very beginning, he made me feel comfortable and confident that I was in the best hands. He’s not only an incredibly skilled surgeon but also someone who genuinely cares about his patients. One of the things that makes Dr. Ozan stand out is that he’s an ENT specialist and he doesn’t just focus on aesthetics, he prioritizes function. This was especially important for my revision rhinoplasty, as he ensured that my nose would not only look good but also finally function properly. Before my surgery, I had multiple conversations with Dr. Ozan on Instagram, a video consultation, and an in-person consultation right before the procedure. He always took the time to answer my questions, address any concerns, and never made me feel rushed. It was clear that he wanted me to feel completely informed and at ease before moving forward. I had a revision rhinoplasty, brow lift, mid-face lift, and lip lift, and I am beyond excited to see my final results. My table pictures were better than I could have ever imagined! But what really sets Dr. Ozan apart is his dedication to his patients—he personally checked in on me every single day after surgery through Instagram, making sure I was okay and reassuring me throughout my recovery. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. If you’re considering surgery, Dr. Ozan Erol is absolutely the best choice!

Dr. Erol's Surgical Approach
Dr. Ozan Erol approaches the deep plane facelift as a procedure of tissue repositioning rather than simple skin tightening.
Dr. Ozan Erol approaches the deep plane facelift as a procedure of tissue repositioning rather than simple skin tightening. This distinction defines the modern deep plane technique and separates it from older methods that pulled only at the surface.
The core of the operation involves working beneath the SMAS layer — the superficial musculoaponeurotic system, a continuous sheet of muscle and connective tissue that lies under the skin and supports the facial contours. A deep plane facelift releases this layer and lifts it as a unit.
