Education and professional background
- 2013
A named university record
An Erciyes University placement-selection notice names Mehmet Nurettin Kıral in its medical-faculty list. It records selection for an Erasmus placement, not proof of a completed specialist qualification.

Training chronology
The Turkish ENT Society’s 2018 resident-school list places him at SBÜ Bakırköy. His own biography dates completion of ENT training at Bakırköy Dr. Sadi Konuk Training and Research Hospital to 2019. The latter date is a practice-reported fact.

What does the practice focus on?
Current practice and consultation scope
The practice biography places his current clinic in Istanbul and describes primary and revision rhinoplasty. Confirm the proposed operation and operating facility individually; a consultation address does not identify the hospital in which surgery would take place. This independent profile does not provide booking or represent the practice.

Clinical interests & published evidence
Evidence reviewed:
Two ENT case reports
The 2019 concha bullosa paper concerns a fungal infection; the 2017 retropharyngeal abscess report concerns an infant with sleep-related symptoms. Kıral is a coauthor. Neither paper measures cosmetic rhinoplasty outcomes or establishes his present practice’s complication or satisfaction rate.

- Publication record · Retropharyngeal Abscess Presenting With Sleep Apnea Syndrome (2017), PMID 28328604
Plan appearance and breathing explicitly
His biography describes both first-time and revision work. Ask which concern is being addressed, what examination is needed and how prior surgery changes the discussion. This is a preparation question, not confirmation that a particular operation is suitable.

Understanding nasal surgery
Different goals. One carefully considered plan.
A useful consultation separates what you would like to change from what an examination can establish. The guide below explains the vocabulary used in nasal surgery. It is general education, not a description of this doctor’s personal technique or a recommendation for your case.
Form
What would you like to change about your nose within the proportions of your face?
Breathing
Which symptoms need an internal examination and discussion of possible causes?
History
How do previous treatment, health and expectations inform the discussion?
Conceptual planning diagram, not a diagnostic image or a prediction of surgical results.
Read the procedure, recovery and risk guide
Rhinoplasty: the external shape
Rhinoplasty changes the shape or size of the nose. Open and closed describe access through different incision patterns; these words alone do not tell you what structural work is planned. Ask your surgeon to explain the proposed changes, their limitations and why that access suits your anatomy.
NHS · Nose reshaping (rhinoplasty)
Septoplasty: the internal partition
The septum divides the two nasal passages. A deviation can contribute to obstruction, but an off-centre septum does not always cause symptoms. Assessment considers other contributors, including the turbinates and nasal valves. Septoplasty addresses the septum; a combined septorhinoplasty also addresses the external nose.

Revision: understand the earlier operation
If you have already had surgery, make that clear at the outset and bring any available operative records. A useful consultation should distinguish the concern you see today from the correction being proposed. Ask what can realistically change, what may remain and whether further surgery is appropriate at all.
ASPS · Rhinoplasty consultation; editorial consultation prompts
Arrive with a history, leave with clear questions.
Prepare your medical conditions, allergies, current medicines and supplements, smoking or alcohol history and previous procedures. Describe both appearance and breathing concerns. The consultation should include examination, available options and an explanation of risks. Do not change prescribed medicines yourself; ask the treating team for individual instructions.

Recovery is a sequence, not a reveal.
This visual is an orientation to follow-up, not a fixed timetable. The treating surgeon determines your care and review schedule.
- 01
Initial care
Splints or dressings may protect the nose. Obtain written instructions on care, medicines and the next review.
- 02
Early review
Ask who removes dressings or sutures, when you can resume activities and whom to contact with concerns.
- 03
Ongoing healing
Swelling changes over time; refinement can take up to a year. An early photograph is not the final assessment.
- 04
Continued follow-up
Confirm how reviews continue after you return home and how persistent concerns will be assessed.
ASPS · Rhinoplasty recovery
Discuss the trade-offs before deciding.
Possible risks include breathing difficulty, infection, altered sensation, scarring, septal perforation, dissatisfaction with appearance and further surgery. Anaesthesia has its own risks. Ask which are relevant to your health and proposed operation, how complications would be managed and what alternatives are available.

Reviews, fees & online identity
Kıral and Kiral refer to the spelling being checked
Erciyes University and the Turkish ENT Society use Kıral; his English practice biography uses Kiral. Match the full name and professional chronology rather than treating spelling variants as different doctors.

Questions still requiring an individual answer
This profile does not establish current hospital privileges, a personal outcome rate or a Rhinoplasty Team Turkey relationship. A paper, selected photograph or online review cannot supply those answers. Ask for a dated written plan and identify responsibility for care before making arrangements.
- Editorial research guidance · Rhinoplasty Team Turkey — independent editorial research, 13 October 2026; not a clinical assessment
This dated source review distinguishes published records from practice descriptions and patient-authored material. It does not audit individual outcomes or confirm services for a future booking.
