Patient Experience
As a 68-year-old retired botanist, I developed a persistent, scaly rash on my hands after experimenting with rare Balkan lichens. Dr. Aydingoğz didn't just treat the contact dermatitis; she collaborated with a mycologist to identify the exact irritant species, then designed a protective hand-care protocol that allowed me to continue my research safely. Her interdisciplinary approach was extraordinary.
My 8-year-old daughter, born with a port-wine stain covering her left cheek, faced bullying at school. Dr. Aydingoğz's multi-stage laser treatment plan was meticulously scheduled around school breaks. She used a special pediatric cooling device she personally helped adapt for sensitive skin. The stain has faded dramatically, and my daughter's confidence has blossomed—she now proudly gives 'science talks' about her treatments.
During a business trip to Istanbul, I (42M, investment banker) developed a sudden, severe blistering eruption on my torso. Dr. Aydingoğz diagnosed a rare drug reaction to a new antibiotic within hours at Acıbadem Kozyatağı's emergency dermatology unit. Her swift intervention with targeted immunosuppressants prevented progression to toxic epidermal necrolysis, a potentially fatal condition. She managed my crisis with calm expertise.
I'm a 19-year-old competitive swimmer with severe, chlorine-exacerbated folliculitis. Typical treatments hampered my training. Dr. Aydingoğz created a unique regimen: pre-swim barrier films and post-swim acidic rinses based on pool water chemistry analysis. She coordinated with my coach on timing. My skin cleared without a single missed session, and I just qualified for nationals.
