Hi, I am Serkan Sabancı. I was born in Adana and graduated from Adana Baraj High School in 1997. In the same year, I entered Çukurova Medical Faculty and started my university education. During my medical education, due to my interest in surgical branches, I spent most of my time outside of classes in the operating room of the faculty. After my medical education, I did my compulsory service in the emergency department. Although I loved saving the lives of hundreds of patients in the emergency unit and the emergency intervention and dynamism of this unit, after completing my compulsory service due to my interest in plastic surgery, I took the specialty exam and was accepted to the Department of Plastic Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery at Çukurova University Faculty of Medicine.
In the first years of my specialist training, I attended many courses and events due to my interest in hair transplantation. In the second year of my assistantship as Serkan Sabancı, I developed my own hair transplantation technique with the vibrating Micromotor I produced and performed eyebrow and beard transplants on many patients with burnt faces, and I had the opportunity to share this technique with many of my colleagues in live surgery courses organized by the Plastic Surgery Association. During my specialty training, Çukurova University Faculty of Medicine was a regional hospital and I performed both reconstruction and aesthetic surgery operations intensively.

As Serkan Sabancı, after my specialty training, I did my compulsory service at Bilecik State Hospital, where I focused on plastic surgeries during my 2-year service period. After completing my compulsory service, I started working as a private physician in Istanbul. I am currently accepting patients in my private practice in Üsküdar, Istanbul.
