Before and after videos on social media show patients' noses reduced dramatically in size and finished with with an upturned tip. The surgeon behind the trend is Dr Ferda Erol, based in Izmir, Turkey.

On TikTok her rhinoplasty videos have amassed millions of views with commenters perplexed and shocked at the results asking if it is 'a joke'. Although Dr Erol appears to be happy with the outcomes, Doctor Anthony Youn , a plastic surgeon based in the US is worried. Sharing his reaction to Dr Erol's surgeries with his 5.



29 million subscribers on YouTube he admitted that he 'didn't get it'. Reacting to one nose job surgery posted on Dr Erol's Instagram page @opdrferdaero , Dr Youn says the woman us already 'beautiful' and although she does have a 'small dorsal hump' — a small lump on the bridge of the nose — she only needed small tweaks. 'I think overall her nose looks great and if she came to see me for a nose job I would probably shave down a little bit of that bump and that is probably about it,' he said.

But in the clip of her nose following the surgery the patient's nose is rotated upwards far more than what is considered to be the 'ideal' nasal angle for a woman.

Dr. Ferda Erol Boloğur (@opdrferdaerol) Dr Youn explains that the angle between the nose and the upper lip is called the 'nasolabial angle', in women it's believed a perfect shaped nose is between 95 and 105 degrees. But in this patients case the angle after surgery is a lot more at 123 degrees.

Judging another video on Dr Erol's TikTok that sees a man undergo a dramatic nose job, Dr Youn said again his nasal angle is way over the ideal beauty standard. He said: 'The ideal male nasal angle is about 90 degrees and this guy right after surgery his is about 120 degrees' The surgeon admitted that often surgeons have a 'signature nose job' meaning many of their results 'look the same'. He added that if Dr Erol's patients are happy with the nose jobs that's the most important thing.

However, Dr Youn did question the authenticity of some of her videos. One video shows a bulbus nose in the before clip before the surgery, but Dr Youn suggests it's 'misleading' and suspects the nose has been 'infused with a ton of anesthetic'.

Dr Youn added: 'Typically if you put a lot of pressure on it at the beginning of the operation you can push most of that fluid out. 'So, this patient does not appear to have a really massively wide nose to begin with although she has made it look like that's the case.' Although Dr Youn admitted he has now stopped performing nose jobs, when he did he said he opted for making small tweaks.

He stressed that it's vital to research your surgeon before getting plastic surgery and urged people to look at before and after photo and videos to make sure the results matched what you are looking for. WHAT IS A NOSE JOB? A nose job - or a rhinoplasty - is an operation to change the size and shape of the nose. In the UK, the procedure is not usually available on the NHS for cosmetic reasons, but may be if the surgery is to help you breathe.

Costs range from £4,500-to-£7,000. Figures suggest around 4,000 nose jobs are carried out every year in the UK and 62,000 in the US. All independent and hospital clinics that carry out the procedure in England must be registered with the Care Quality Commission, which publishes inspection and performance reports.

The surgery may involve making the nose smaller by removing some of the cartilage and bone, or making it larger by taking cartilage from the ears and bone from the hips, elbow or skull. The shape of the nose can also be changed by breaking the bone and rearranging the cartilage. And the angle between the nose and the top lip can be reshaped.

An operation that involves one cut across the skin between the nostrils is known as an open rhinoplasty, while tiny cuts inside the nostrils is a closed rhinoplasty. A closed rhinoplasty leaves no visible scars and causes less swelling. Both operations taken between 90 minutes and three hours, with patients being required to spend one or two nights in hospital.

Most leave hospital with dressings in each nostril and a splint held over their nose with tape, which means they can only breathe through their mouths. You may need to take up to three weeks off work to recover and it may be up to six months before the swelling has gone down enough to see the effects of the operation. Common side effects after a nose reshaping include a: Blocked nose Stiffness or numbness of the nose Soreness, swelling and bruising around the eyes Light nosebleeds Occasionally, the surgery can cause permanent breathing difficulties, damage to the cartilage between the nostrils, an altered sense of smell or heavy nosebleeds.

As with all operations, it can also cause excessive bleeding, blood clots, infection and allergic reaction to the anaesthetic.
