He completed his medical education at Pamukkale University in Turkey. This training grounds his approach in a detailed understanding of facial structure, airway function, and the tissue layers involved in facial rejuvenation.

Dr. Metin focuses on deep plane facelift surgery, a technique that lifts and repositions the deeper connective tissue of the face rather than simply tightening the skin. This approach aims for results that look natural and refreshed rather than pulled.

His philosophy centers on facial balance. In his own words, every face is unique, and the goal is subtle, natural-looking results — a value that appears throughout his public statements on aesthetic surgery.

Because his background is rooted in ear, nose, and throat surgery, Dr. Metin brings an unusual dual perspective to the face. He considers both how a face looks and how it functions, particularly when rhinoplasty is involved.

Rhinoplasty is a second area of concentration for Dr. Metin. He performs primary rhinoplasty, revision rhinoplasty, and tip refinement, always framing the nose within the broader harmony of the face.

Dr. Metin is affiliated with TSPRAS, the Turkish Society of Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery, reflecting his engagement with the professional aesthetic surgery community in Turkey.

His surgical menu extends across facial rejuvenation procedures, including brow lift, mid-face lift, blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery), and genioplasty (chin reshaping). This breadth allows a tailored plan rather than a single fixed technique.

Dr. Metin practices in Istanbul, a city long regarded as a bridge between Europe and Asia and a recognized center for aesthetic and reconstructive surgery. His clinic sits within an established hospital environment.

With more than two years in dedicated practice, Dr. Metin represents a newer voice in Istanbul's large and competitive community of facial surgeons. Patients are encouraged to weigh experience, technique, and communication carefully.

Recovery is a subject Dr. Metin addresses directly with his patients. A deep plane facelift involves a healing period measured in weeks for visible swelling and several months for the final refined result.

His attention to patient communication is a recurring theme in how he describes his work. He emphasizes listening to concerns, explaining options, and setting realistic expectations before any procedure.

Dr. Metin maintains an active presence on Instagram under the handle drulasmetin, where he shares his approach to natural facial aesthetics. This visibility gives prospective patients a window into his surgical style.

For women considering facial rejuvenation, Dr. Ulaş Metin offers a combination of ENT-rooted anatomical precision and an aesthetic philosophy grounded in subtlety, balance, and preserved natural expression.

Where is Dr. Metin located?

Visit the official clinic website for the full street address, parking details, and directions from the nearest international airport.

What is the recovery time for a deep plane facelift?
Recovery from a deep plane facelift typically involves 2-3 weeks of initial healing, with most visible bruising resolving within 7-10 days and sutures removed at days 7-10. International patients can generally travel home after 10-14 days once swelling has stabilised and wound checks are complete.

Deep plane facelift results typically last 10-15 years, significantly longer than traditional SMAS or mini-facelift procedures, which tend to last 5-8 years. The deep plane technique repositions deeper facial tissues (including the SMAS-platysma composite and the released retaining ligaments) rather than simply tightening skin, which produces more natural, longer-lasting rejuvenation. Longevity also depends on individual ageing biology, sun exposure, smoking status, and skincare. Dr. Metin can discuss expected outcomes for your anatomy during consultation.
