Ayça Ergan Sahin
M.D.
I was born in Istanbul in 1988. I completed my primary education at the Private Koç School. After graduating from Istanbul High School (Istanbul Erkek Lisesi), I began my medical education at Cerrahpaşa Faculty of Medicine.
After graduation, I started my residency in the Department of Plastic Surgery at Okmeydanı Training and Research Hospital through the national medical specialization exam (TUS). In 2018, I earned the title of Specialist in Plastic, Reconstructive, and Aesthetic Surgery. After completing my compulsory service at Prof. Dr. Cemil Taşçıoğlu City Hospital, I opened my private clinic and began working as an independent physician.
While I primarily focus on aesthetic surgery, I also have experience in reconstructive procedures. I am fluent in English, German, and Spanish. I hold ECFMG and EBOPRAS certifications, and I am registered as a medical doctor with the GMC (General Medical Council).
