Özden Zeki Pınar, MD

Özden Zeki Pınar, MD is a dermatologist at Acibadem Bursa Hospital in Bursa, where he practices within the hospital’s Dermatology unit. His clinical work spans medical and cosmetic dermatology, with Cosmetic Dermatology as his subspecialty. Over more than 38 years in medicine, his practice has covered a range of skin, hair, and nail concerns, from inflammatory skin diseases and skin infections to the assessment of pigmented lesions and skin tumors, alongside cosmetic and hair-related procedures.

Dr. Pınar graduated from Dicle University Faculty of Medicine in 1988. He then completed his specialization training at the Dicle University Faculty of Medicine, Department of Dermatology and Venereal Diseases, finishing in 1996. He has been part of Acıbadem Healthcare Services since 2025, and international patients consult him at the Bursa hospital for assessment and treatment planning.

Clinical focus

Dr. Pınar’s areas of expertise include several chronic and common skin conditions. He sees patients with psoriasis, seborrheic dermatitis, fungal skin infections, nail fungus, and warts, as well as melasma and other pigmentation concerns. A further part of his practice is the evaluation of pigmented lesions and skin tumors, including melanoma and other forms of skin cancer. Dermoscopy is used in the examination of moles and other skin lesions to support clinical assessment; where a lesion raises concern, the findings are discussed with the patient together with the possible next steps.

On the procedural and cosmetic side, Dr. Pınar’s practice includes cryotherapy, which is used for selected skin lesions, as well as PRP, hair mesotherapy, and Plexr application. Hair loss treatment is one of his listed areas of expertise, and PRP and hair mesotherapy form part of the options he may discuss in that context. Cosmetic dermatology procedures are considered individually after a clinical examination, and the suitability of any treatment depends on the patient’s skin type, condition, and medical history.

How Dr. Pınar works with international patients

Dr. Pınar consults in Turkish and English, and interpreters can be arranged for patients who speak other languages. Before a visit, the international patient team coordinates the collection of prior reports, such as laboratory and pathology results, earlier dermatology reports, operative notes, and discharge summaries, and arranges appointments and the hospital visit itself. A first consultation typically covers the patient’s history and symptoms, a review of previous treatments and any existing results, a clinical examination of the skin, hair, or nails, and a discussion of the options. Video consultation is available for international patients who wish to discuss their case with Dr. Pınar before travelling.
