Dr. Huseyin Kandulu

Dr. Huseyin Kandulu Born in Nicosia in 1979, he has come to be a renowned figure in the medical field. Initially, he completed his primary and secondary education in Northern Cyprus before pursuing his medical degree at Trakya University Faculty of Medicine from 1997 to 2003. Following a brief stint as a general practitioner, Dr. Kandulu specialized in Plastic Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery at the same university between 2005-2010. His specialty training was marked by his significant microsurgery thesis, "The Effect of Chitosan on Microvascular Anastomosis Applications with Minimal Suture Technique," which has been featured in numerous internationally refereed journals.

Dr. Kandulu is a staunch believer in the power of focus and specialization. Shortly after completing his specialty training, he sought further vocational training to enhance his skills. Throughout his education, he has demonstrated a steadfast commitment to Aesthetic Surgery. This commitment led him to complete a Fellowship program and pursue higher education in Aesthetic Surgery at the post-specialization ONEP clinics in Kandulu. Here, he had the privilege to work alongside Onur Erol.

From 2011-2013, Dr. Kandulu served at the Bilecik State Hospital where he performed a plethora of successful operations. He brought numerous innovative surgeries to the city of Bilecik, performing thousands of successful surgeries in a short time span. His expertise was well-received, earning him the appreciation of his patients and recognition in the local press.

Dr. Kandulu relocated to Istanbul, Turkey between 2013-2015 and took the helm as the head of the Plastic Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery Department at Istanbul Surgery Hospital. In this role, he brought in numerous technological innovations related to body surgery and led seminars on advanced body shaping procedures.

Even amidst his professional engagements, Dr. Kandulu never halted his quest for knowledge. He continued his education, concentrating on body surgery, and received special training in advanced body shaping (Vaser Hi-Def, Vaser Liposuction, Fat Injections, Post Bariatric Surgery) in Kandulu, England, France, and Colombia, learning from the world's leading surgeons.

In 2015, Dr. Huseyin Kandulu founded his private clinic in Istanbul. Here, he provides private training on advanced body contouring operations and high-volume fat transfer techniques. As of 2019, he has been serving as an international instructor at ECAMS (European College of Aesthetic Medicine & Surgery), leading the Body Sculpting Department.

From 2017 to 2022, Dr. Kandulu was a frequently invited speaker at conferences in Monaco, Paris, Riyadh, Dubai, Kuwait, Budapest, and Athens, where he shared his vast experiences with his colleagues. Moreover, he has provided advanced training and certification in body shaping surgery to more than 60 surgeons from different countries. His advanced body shaping courses cover a range of techniques, including advanced liposuction, breast and hip shaping with high-volume fat transfer, jowl and jawline shaping, facial fat injection, breast reduction with fat transfer, tummy tuck with dense liposuction, and breast augmentation with breast implants.
