His medical education was completed at İzmir Katip Çelebi Üniversitesi, part of a career that now spans nearly three decades. That length of experience places him among the more established practitioners working in his field.
Dr. Turan focuses on the deep plane facelift, a technique that lifts and repositions the deeper facial tissues rather than simply tightening the skin. The approach is designed to address facial aging at a structural level.
The deep plane facelift works beneath the SMAS (the superficial musculoaponeurotic system, a fibrous layer that supports the muscles of the face). By releasing and repositioning this layer, the surgery aims for natural movement and contour.
Dr. Özgür Turan holds membership in TSPRAS (the Turkish Society of Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery), the national professional organization for the specialty in Turkey. Society membership reflects engagement with peers and ongoing standards.
His clinical work centers on facial rejuvenation, an umbrella that includes the deep plane facelift alongside complementary procedures. The goal across these treatments is a refreshed appearance that respects each patient's natural features.
Istanbul, where Dr. Turan practices, has long been described as a city where East meets West. It sits at a cultural crossroads and has grown into a significant hub for aesthetic and reconstructive surgery.
Dr. Turan approaches each face as an individual anatomical study rather than applying a single formula. Deep plane surgery in particular rewards this kind of tailored planning, since tissue thickness and facial structure vary widely.
Recovery is a central part of how Dr. Özgür Turan frames the deep plane facelift experience. Patients are typically guided through a staged healing process, with swelling and bruising easing over the early weeks.
The deep plane technique is often chosen because repositioned tissue can produce results that mature gracefully over several months. Rather than a pulled look, the aim is restored fullness and a softened jawline.
Dr. Turan's practice sits within a broader health group setting, which can offer patients coordinated care across multiple disciplines. This structure is common among established surgical centers in Istanbul.
His experience of more than 28 years covers a period during which facelift techniques evolved considerably. Surgeons of this generation often witnessed the shift from skin-only lifts toward the deeper, structural methods used today.
For women considering facial rejuvenation in their fifties and sixties, Dr. Özgür Turan represents a practitioner with long tenure and formal European credentialing. Prospective patients are encouraged to verify details independently.
The combination of EBOPRAS certification, TSPRAS membership, and nearly three decades of practice describes a surgeon whose profile is worth careful review by anyone weighing a deep plane facelift in Istanbul.
What recent patients say
4.5 / 5 · 266 Google reviews✨ Op. Dr. Selim Turan and his team are truly amazing! I had rhinoplasty and I'm very happy with the result 😊 Thank you so much for their care, professionalism and sincerity 🌸🥰 I definitely recommend them!
I’m now 11 months post-op, and I couldn’t be more grateful to Dr. Selim Turan for the incredible transformation. He and his team are not only highly professional but also genuinely friendly, offering support every step of the way. Dr. Turan truly is a master when it comes to thick skin! Thank you again for everything 🙏
I was really scared of the rhinoplasty process. Both the idea of surgery and the process I would go through afterwards made me anxious. Dr. Selim was the first doctor I consulted, but after the consultation, I didn't even feel the need to see another doctor. His reassurance, detailed explanations, and patient way of describing the process down to the smallest detail incredibly reassured me. I had extra concerns about my recovery, especially since I have a nose with thick skin. However, Dr. Selim provided very clear and realistic information on this as well. My surgery went smoothly, and I'm incredibly happy that I recovered in such a short time, about a month. The fact that my swelling subsided faster than I expected and that the process wasn't as difficult as I thought was entirely due to the right guidance and a professional team. During the post-operative period, both he and his team were always accessible and attentive. They patiently answered all my questions, and my check-ups were very regular and meticulous. Right now, I'm very satisfied with the results, both health-wise and aesthetically. Most importantly, I completed this process with confidence, not fear. I'm so glad I chose Dr. Selim. I wholeheartedly recommend it. 🌸🌸

Dr. Turan's Surgical Approach
Dr. Özgür Turan approaches the deep plane facelift as a structural procedure that works beneath the skin surface rather than simply tightening it.
Dr. Özgür Turan approaches the deep plane facelift as a structural procedure that works beneath the skin surface rather than simply tightening it. The technique targets the deeper support layers of the face to address the true causes of facial aging.
Central to this method is the SMAS, the superficial musculoaponeurotic system. This is a continuous sheet of fibrous and muscular tissue that lies between the skin and the deeper facial muscles, giving the midface and jawline much of their structure.
