- He continued his work on microsurgery which is one of the most difficult surgical branches, performing over 500 microsurgical operations during training.
- He studies fingertip injuries in children. During his studies, he developed a new "vascular suture technique" and prepared a thesis on this subject.
- In 2004 he presented this technique on the National Plastic, Reconstructive, and Aesthetic Surgery Congress, and he won first prize in the contest in the experimental branch field.
- He also won the first prize in the competition in clinical categories with his technique of muscle suturing in cleft lip repair.
- 2004 – became a Plastic Surgery specialist.
- After expertise, to achieve more successful results in plastic surgery, he became interested in sculpture and art history. He studied Fine Art Sculpture at Suleyman Demirel University and continued this education on the Fine Arts and sculpture in İnonu University, Malatya. He worked with Michael Esson regarding model and pattern studies.
- 2007-2010 – Baris worked in the Istanbul Memorial Hospital.
- Currently, he is working as a surgeon in his private office at Abdiipekçi and doing surgeries in an American Hospital.
- Rhinoplasty consists of 100% of his surgical practice.
- He wrote a book named “Aesthetic Septorhinoplasty” by Springer and "Estetik Rhinoplasty"
- Scientific research: A Complete Subperichondrial Dissection Technique for Rhinoplasty With Management of the Nasal Ligaments
Authors: Barıs‚ Çakır, MD; Ali Rıza Örerog˘lu, MD; Teoman Doğan, MD; and Mithat Akan, MD
Abstract: Background: A complete subperichondrial and subperiosteal dissection technique during rhinoplasty may minimize soft tissue disruption, resulting in less scar tissue formation and preservation of ligamentous structures.
Objectives: The authors describe their results with subperichondrial dissection of the nasal framework and manipulation of the preserved nasal ligaments.
Methods: The charts of 228 consecutive patients who underwent rhinoplasty with complete subperichondrial dissection via an open or closed approach between May 2008 and April 2011 with the senior author were retrospectively reviewed. Intraoperatively, the scroll ligament and Pitanguy’s midline ligament were repaired to stabilize the internal valve and tip position, respectively.
Results: Patients in this series (182 men, 46 women) ranged in age from 18 to 54 years (mean, 24.3 years). A total of 203 procedures were primary rhinoplasties; 14 were secondary, and 11 were revisions. The open approach was used in 92 patients, whereas a closed dome delivery was used in the remaining 136 patients. Follow-up ranged from nine months to three years. A complete subperichondrial dissection technique resulted in relatively limited edema and more rapid patient recovery compared with the authors’ previous experience with the sub-superficial musculoaponeurotic system (SMAS) approach. Repeat elevation in the subperichondrial plane was easier and less traumatic in revision cases compared with secondary rhinoplasty cases.
Conclusions: Subperichondrial dissection of the nasal framework allows reshaping and redraping of the nasal tip and controlled manipulation and repair of ligaments without disturbing the overlying soft tissue.
