Clinical focus

A significant part of Dr. Sivaz’s work involves procedural and aesthetic dermatology. She performs botulinum toxin applications, which are used for a range of dermatological indications, and offers treatment for excessive sweating. Her approach to skin rejuvenation and regeneration includes PRP treatment as well as non-surgical facial lifting options such as the liquid facelift and thread lift. The suitability of any of these procedures depends on an individual assessment of the patient’s skin, medical history, and expectations, and not every option is appropriate for every patient.

Dr. Sivaz also treats hair loss, including pregnancy-related hair loss, and manages warts, including genital warts. Among the methods she uses is cryotherapy, a treatment in which targeted cold is applied to skin lesions. During a consultation she reviews the type and extent of the condition, discusses realistic goals, and explains the possible benefits and limitations of the treatments under consideration so that patients can make an informed decision.

How Dr. Sivaz works with international patients

Dr. Sivaz consults in Turkish and English, and interpreters can be arranged for patients who speak other languages. Before a visit, the Acibadem international patient team coordinates the collection of prior reports and any relevant imaging, arranges appointments, and organises the hospital visit. A first consultation typically covers the patient’s history and symptoms, a review of existing imaging and previous treatments, a clinical examination of the skin, hair, or affected area, and a discussion of the available options. Video consultation is available for international patients who wish to discuss their situation before travelling, although a physical examination may still be needed before any treatment decision is made.
