1. Rhinoplasty (Nose Aesthetic Surgery)
Rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure to improve the aesthetic appearance of the nose. Changes are made in areas like the nasal bridge, tip, or width to enhance the nose’s overall look.
Applications: Aesthetic concerns, congenital or injury-induced nasal deformities, breathing problems.
2. Septoplasty
Septoplasty is a surgical procedure to correct a deviated or displaced nasal septum (the cartilage and bone wall dividing the nasal cavity). This surgery aims to alleviate nasal congestion and improve breathing issues.
Applications: Deviated septum, chronic nasal congestion, sinusitis.
3. Sinus Surgery (FESS – Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery)
This surgery is performed to remove blockages that hinder sinus drainage and alleviate chronic sinusitis symptoms. FESS is a minimally invasive technique done using endoscopic tools.
Applications: Chronic sinusitis, sinus polyps, sinus blockages.
4. Turbinate Surgery (Turbinoplasty)
This surgery aims to relieve nasal congestion caused by enlarged turbinates (nasal conchae). The procedure reduces the size of the turbinates to open the nasal airways.
Applications: Nasal congestion, allergic rhinitis, chronic nasal blockage.
5. Nasal Polyp Surgery
This is the surgical removal of polyps (benign growths) that develop in the nose and sinuses. The procedure is performed endoscopically to improve sinus drainage and airflow.
Applications: Chronic sinusitis, nasal polyps.
6. Nasal Reconstruction
Nasal reconstruction involves rebuilding lost nasal tissue due to trauma, post-cancer surgery, or congenital deformities. This procedure includes both aesthetic and functional improvements.
Applications: Post-trauma nasal deformities, reconstruction after cancer surgery, congenital nasal structural issues.
7. Nasal Valve Surgery
The nasal valve is the narrowest part within the nose, and airflow relies on its proper function. Surgical intervention is performed in cases of nasal valve collapse or narrowing to strengthen this area and improve airflow.
Applications: Nasal valve narrowing, nasal congestion.
8. Alarplasty
Alarplasty is a surgical procedure to alter the width or shape of the nasal wings (ala). This surgery is aimed at improving the general aesthetic appearance of the nose.Applications: Excessively wide nasal wings, deformities in the shape of the nostrils.Nasal surgeries are planned and performed based on both aesthetic and medical needs. These surgeries are conducted to improve the patient’s overall health and quality of life. It is essential to consult an ENT specialist to determine the most suitable type of surgery.
Surgery for Snoring and Sleep Apnea
In snoring and sleep apnea surgery, various procedures are applied to open the airways and help the patient breathe more comfortably. Sleep apnea is a condition that causes breathing to stop briefly during sleep and is often associated with snoring. Here are some common procedures in snoring and sleep apnea surgery:1. Uvulopalatopharyngoplasty (UPPP)
In this procedure, excess tissue in the uvula, soft palate, and back of the throat is removed. The goal is to widen the airways and improve airflow.Applications: UPPP is typically used for patients with snoring and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).
2. Extended Uvulopalatopharyngoplasty (EUPP)
This is a more extensive version of UPPP. More tissue is removed to further widen the airways.Applications: It may be applied in severe cases of obstructive sleep apnea.3. Genioglossus Advancement
The back of the tongue is advanced toward the jawbone. This prevents the tongue from blocking the airway during sleep.Applications: Used in patients with moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea.
4. Maxillomandibular Advancement (MMA)
The upper and lower jaw are moved forward. This widens the airways and improves airflow.Applications: Used in severe sleep apnea cases when other surgical options are insufficient.
5. Nasal Surgery
Procedures like septoplasty, turbinate reduction, and other nasal surgeries are performed to open nasal airways. The aim is to improve airflow through the nose, alleviating snoring and sleep apnea.Applications: For patients with nasal congestion and sleep apnea.6. Hyoid Suspension
The hyoid bone is pulled forward and secured, preventing the base of the tongue from blocking the airway.Applications: May be applied in sleep apnea patients with airway obstruction related to the base of the tongue.
7. Tongue Base Radiofrequency Ablation
Radiofrequency energy is used to shrink excess tissue at the base of the tongue, opening the airways.Applications: For patients with sleep apnea caused by obstruction at the base of the tongue.8. Hypoglossal Nerve Stimulation
A device is implanted to stimulate the hypoglossal nerve. This increases muscle tone in the tongue, preventing it from blocking the airway during sleep.Applications: Used for patients with moderate to severe sleep apnea who do not respond to CPAP therapy.9. Tracheostomy
A small hole is made in the neck to create a direct airway to the trachea. This procedure bypasses the obstruction in the airways, allowing the patient to breathe.Applications: Used as a last resort in very severe sleep apnea cases where other treatments have failed.
I am Ferah Emirdar, one side of my nostril was closed, I could hardly breathe, I was acting aggressively, the sinusitis I had been suffering from for years was a separate problem. When I went for the examination, I made my decision, I had the surgery, it was very successful and not what I feared. The first thing I said after removing the tampon was, "Are you breathing like this?" I became a calm person, my sleep improved, I fell asleep immediately, I had no nerves left because I slept well, and my sinusitis and nasal congestion were gone. I would like to thank your patience and team during this process. I am also happy to have met you.
I went to Mustafa Hodja with the recommendation of a friend, and after my examination, I had 2 parotid tumor surgeries, one month apart. Both surgeries were successful. I felt at ease each time with the explanations Mustafa Deniz Hodja made both before and after the surgery. Thanks to Mustafa Hodja's self-confidence and the intense interest of his assistants, I went through the surgery very comfortably. Thank you Mustafa Hodja and his friendly team.
I have been suffering from vertigo dizziness for 9 years. I was at a point where I could not do work at home. There was no doctor left that I did not go to. Finally, I went to my doctor, Mustafa Deniz. We started my treatment and I was very pleased with his care and attention. Now I am very well. I have been suffering from this dizziness for years. God bless you. I feel like I was born again. I am glad to have you, my teacher. I recognized
I am 34 years old. I have been having problems with infection and hearing loss due to ruptured eardrum since the age of 10. I wanted to have surgery and I went to many doctors. None of them were positive about me having surgery. They said my ears would not be healed with surgery. They recommended hearing aids. Upon the advice of a friend, I met Mustafa. He performed a very successful surgery. My hearing was cured. I got rid of the infection. Thank you very much for everything.
I am very happy with my teacher. He is a doctor who is very experienced in his job. His team is also knowledgeable. I think you should choose Mustafa without hesitation. I don't know any other doctor. I recommend him to everyone. He is a doctor who works hard, listens to his patient, and understands what he wants.
My quality of life has officially increased, I can breathe much easier. I would like to thank my teacher and his team very much.
We met with Mr. Mustafa Deniz for my son's adenoid surgery. He made me feel very comfortable with his interest and explanations. Our doctor is really a very sincere person. Our surgery was very successful, thank God. I had surgery a few months ago. I had a cyst in my throat. He explained my surgery process and my situation to me with the same interest and concern. My surgery went very well, thank God. Mr. Mustafa Deniz is successful in his job, valuable and a good person. The people who work with them are very valuable and good people. I'm glad I met you :)
I had nose surgery. I am in my 4th month. I am very satisfied. Thank you to my teacher Deniz.
I found Dr. Mustafa as a result of my research and went to him with the complaint of lack of ventilation of the Eustachian tube and decreased hearing. I had had surgery on the ear many times before, so he looked at my nose and said that there was a curvature in the nasal bone and a serious devaluation. If we correct it, it would benefit the ear and it would help me breathe in the future. So we did the surgery. We decided to be together, now I'm getting some fresh air and my hearing has improved a little, he said I'll be better, may God bless him, his communication and friendliness was very good, I'm glad to have you. my teacher

If you are reading this article right now, you are in search of information like us. For this reason, I will tell our story in a little detail so that maybe it will be of some help to you. My daughter is 3 years old, we take her to our pediatrician regularly and when necessary. Our adventure started with nasal congestion. I am talking about a congestion that does not go away even though we constantly open it. Afterwards, mouth opening and snoring. When we asked our pediatrician about this situation, he referred us to Mustafa Hodja. After the examination of the adenoid size, He said it was 90%. We heard the sentence we didn't want: 'There should be surgery.' You'll be right, as a mother, I didn't want to have a young child undergo surgery right away. I even shared the situation with my pediatrician. He said, 'If Mustafa Hodja says, get it done, he won't say it easily. Make an appointment right away. We created the surgery and two days later, my baby had surgery. The only difficult thing about this surgery was waiting outside while your child was inside. Apart from that, everything was very planned and professional. The evening we came home, my baby was not snoring. He slept and we were incredibly surprised by this situation. We did not experience any negative situation. I would like to express our endless gratitude to Mustafa Hodja once again. Ms. Ayşegül, who did the programming, guided us very well. I am glad our paths crossed. Sleep without snoring, may the children be happy❤️
I went to the doctor with a complaint of symptom perforation. He said that he could easily close it after the examination. I had my surgery in April 2024. He also performed deviation and nose tip aesthetics. My priority was, of course, to repair the perforation. Thank God, the hole closed and I also had a beautiful nose. My recovery process is still ongoing, it was a long and difficult surgery, but I can breathe healthy. During this process, Ms. Ayşegül was always just a phone call away. I also thank him very much for his interest.
