Dr Ali Cetinkaya Clinic

Amazing- truly shocked at my outcome. The care that they give you, the expertise. The results are more than I could’ve even hoped for. I had a deep face plane lift, temporal lift, neck lift, lip lift, breast lift, fat grafting with facial injections, and CO2 laser. Not only is it extremely affordable in Istanbul, Turkey. 🇹🇷 I was in the care was seriously unbelievably. He, his team, his nurses, and the hotel have got to be the best in the world. Class act all the way. I love Dr Ali and I hope to go back next year, maybe for a forehead lift, etc. (I secretly just wanna see them all again 😂)❤️

I had a temporal lift and breast reduction with Dr. Ali Cetinkaya, and my experience was absolutely incredible from start to finish. I chose his clinic after extensive research, and from my very first consultation, I knew I was in the right hands. Dr. Ali is not only exceptionally skilled but also genuinely caring. He took the time to listen, explain every step, and make me feel completely comfortable.

During surgery, he addressed a rupture with such precision and care, and the results have far exceeded my expectations. My recovery was smooth, and his follow-up support was amazing. I’m genuinely ecstatic about the outcome — my confidence has been completely renewed.

The clinic itself was spotless, professional, and so welcoming. Every member of the team was kind and attentive. I couldn’t recommend Dr. Ali and his clinic more highly — he’s truly a perfectionist and an artist in his work.

I honestly don’t have enough words to describe how grateful I am to Dr. Ali Cetinkaya. From start to finish, he was absolutely incredible. I had a temporal lift and breast reduction (which also involved addressing a rupture), and his precision, care, and dedication were beyond anything I could have hoped for.

Dr. Ali made me feel completely at ease through every step — he took the time to explain everything, showed genuine compassion, and treated me with such warmth and professionalism. The level of care he provided after surgery was just as amazing as the procedure itself.

The results have exceeded my expectations — I’m honestly ecstatic. My confidence has been completely transformed, and I feel like the best version of myself again. Dr. Ali is a true artist and a kind soul — I’m so thankful I chose him and couldn’t recommend him more highly.

With great confidence, I would award Dr. Ali and his team a well-deserved AAA+ rating. Our journey began in early 2024, and from the very first consultation—where we explored treatment and surgical options—the experience has consistently been nothing short of world-class.

The team took the time to listen, explain options thoroughly, and weigh pros and cons in detail, which greatly supported timely and informed decision-making.

By mid-2025, when my time came, the entire process—from the carefully planned arrival to the seamless departure—was delivered with precision, passion, and attention to detail. Nothing was overlooked.

Most importantly, the aftercare and ongoing support have been outstanding, adding tremendous value to the overall experience. I share this feedback wholeheartedly, with the highest regard for Dr. Ali and his dedicated team.

Special thanks to Dr. Ali and Nurse Ecim—I look forward to seeing you again in 2026.

I had a facelift, neck lift, platysma bands repair, brow lift and temporal lift with Dr Ali Cetakeye,. I honestly couldn’t be happier with the results. From the very beginning, he made me feel comfortable, listened to all my concerns, and explained everything in clear detail.

I live with hemicrania continua (which is a rare, chronic headache disorder that causes constant, fluctuating pain on both sides of my head and face) , so I was worried about how the surgery and recovery might affect my pain. Amazingly, not only was the whole process so much easier than I expected, but the constant pain I had over my eyebrows has now completely gone since surgery. That in itself has been life-changing.
The results look so natural — my jawline and neck are smooth, the platysma bands are gone, and the lift around my brows and temples has completely refreshed my face without making me look “done.” I still look like me, just a better, brighter version.
Recovery was smooth, and Dr Ali and his team were always there if I had questions or needed reassurance. I honestly feel he’s given me back my confidence and more comfort going forward.
I can’t recommend Dr Ali Cetakeye and his exceptional team enough — not just for his skill as a surgeon, but also for their kindness and the genuine care they showed me throughout the process.

I had a calf augmentation with Dr. Ali, and I am very happy with the result. I feel more confident and great. I would totally recommend Dr. Ali for any prospective patients.

The entire trip was very well organised with transportation and hospital visits. All the team members communicated very efficiently via WhatsApp and everything was clear.

The hotel itself had really great food and the facilities were amazing (there’s a steam room, sauna, Turkish bath and more).

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A True Artist and Exceptional Surgeon – Dr. Ali Changed My Life
I recently underwent a deep plane neck and facelift, temple lift (upper left), and fat transfer with Dr. Ali, and I can honestly say this experience exceeded every expectation I had — and then some.
From the very first consultation, Dr. Ali demonstrated the perfect blend of professionalism, humility, and artistry. His bedside manner is second to none — respectful, calm, and truly present in every interaction. He took the time to listen to my concerns, answer every question thoughtfully, and made me feel completely comfortable and confident in his care. Not once did I feel rushed or like "just another patient" — Dr. Ali genuinely cares.
What sets him apart, however, is his incredible eye for detail and natural results. He is, without a doubt, a true artist in his field. The transformation he achieved is nothing short of remarkable — refined, youthful, and completely natural-looking. I still look like me, just refreshed and beautifully rejuvenated. The deep plane lift and fat transfer were done with such precision, and the results have given me a confidence I haven’t felt in years.
Dr. Ali is also incredibly humble. Despite his immense skill and talent, he remains down-to-earth and kind — and this energy flows through his entire practice. His team is absolutely the best — warm, professional, attentive, and always ready to go above and beyond. From pre-op to post-op care, they made me feel supported every step of the way.
If you are looking for a surgeon who is not only technically gifted but also deeply compassionate, respectful, and artistic in his approach, I cannot recommend Dr. Ali enough. He is simply amazing to watch and even more amazing to trust with something so personal.
I am beyond grateful to have found him — truly a life-changing experience.

Last month, I got a deep plane lower and temporal face and necklift + fat grafting under my eyes and CO2 laser.

I am 38 years old and I try to take care of my skin. Unfortunately, due to stressful situations in the last years and weight loss, I started to look much older, and people always commented on me if I didn't sleep well.

I did fillers and Hifu, but it is a lot of money for a minor difference... So I wanted a really effective one-time treatment, and that's why I chose to go for a facelift already at my age.

I actually used ChatGPT to ask where I needed to go, and Dr. Ali Cetinkaya was one of the names ChatGPT mentioned. ChatGPT mentioned Dr. Ali because of his great reviews. First, I was doubting because there is a negative connotation about going abroad for treatments, but I am glad I chose to go!

I am from Belgium, and if I had the same facelift as I had with Dr. Ali, I would have gone home the same day, but now I had to stay in the hospital for two day's and they checked me constantly. Afterwards, I stayed in the hotel where the other patients of the doctor also stayed. You don't feel alone there. So if you are travelling alone, you don't need to be scared because you will feel at home here.

The hotel is used to patients staying here, and they are so friendly! Next to the reception, there is a medical office where a nurse is available 24/7 and a doctor. Ali and his team visit the hotel every day.

After my surgery, the doctor or nurse checked me every day, and this is a big plus. This service I wouldn't have had in my own country. I would have gone home and only gone back to the doctor if the stitches needed to be removed. So, actually, if you have a good doctor and a good team, you are better off here than at home alone.

I was very, very nervous before the operation. As I am a perfectionist and know how I want things done, it is difficult not to be nervous to give my face into the hands of someone you don't know, so I was so nervous and was scared that I made the wrong decision. Dr. Ali even came to the hotel the night before to talk to me and reassure me. He even said he is not going to operate if I am doubting or we can plan later, so there was no pressure... I really appreciated that he still came to talk to me at 10 p.m. in the evening before the operation. It say's lot about how they take care of the patients.

So for the operation ...
When I woke up, I had a little bit of pain, but you can relate it to a bad hangover. I think I felt this like two days afterwards, you don't really feel pain anymore. Your face is swollen for three weeks, but afterwards you can perfectly go out. I cover my scars with my long hair so nobody notices.

And then the most important... The results! I wanted to stay the same, just refreshed. I wanted my eyes to stay natural, so no fox eyes and a tight jawline... And I got 100 per cent of what I asked! So thank you, Dr. Ali!!! You did amazing work! The results are really natural. It looks just like a big glow up!

I also had fat grafting under my eyes, and I make a joke about it to my friends. I say the best thing about my facelift is my flat stomach 😂. The doctor used some fat from my stomach, and now my stomach seems tighter, so I don't complain about that 😂.

So I can say I am happy with the decision to go abroad and that I chose Dr. Ali. Dr. Ali and his team are so friendly and professional. You are really in good hands with him and his team. I was too nervous, so I hope my review can help because you really don't need to be... You are in the best hands!

Dr Ali Cetinkaya and his team are amazing. From start to finish, you are cared for. Ejem is lovely and answered all of my questions, and there was a lot, prior to the initial consultation within minutes, sometimes immediately. We then had an online consultation with Dr Ali and this confirmed we had the right surgeon and team to perform a deep plane face and neck lift, temporal lift, eyebrow gliding and fat transfer in my face. Everything is included, transfers, hotel, breakfast, hospital treatments and after care and medication.

We were met at the airport with the lovely Gizem who took us to the hotel. We also met with Nurse Ali who was the nurse and translator, however, all the team spoke really good English. Nurse Ali accompanied us to appointments at the hospital for a pre operative assessment, blood test, ECG and chest X-Ray. You meet with an anesthesiologist who goes into your medical history meticulously. I met Dr Ali the day before surgery to go over everything and then on the day of the surgery to be marked up (i think he used permanent marker as my blonde hair now has purple streaks lol).

Dr Ali just puts you at ease, even if he has worries, he keeps you calm and reassured and he also has a great sense of humour. My operation was around 9 hours due to my health and meds, he just took extra care. He came to check in me the day after surgery and confirmed it had gone really well. He recommended Hyperbaric oxygen therapy and if you want to speed up healing, give it a go, yes it's a little uncomfortable but it really helps. I also had O2 oxygen laser therapy and lip filler. Bearkai is the photographer and he records your journey and process. I gave consent so others can see what you will go through.

If you thinking of going to have surgery you will not regret going to Dr Ali. Some in our hotel went elsewhere and were complaining. Do your research but always make sure you don't cut any corners.

My friends told me i didn't need it. I am 59 years and probaby didn't look it but i felt my face was tired, with drooping lids, jowls and deep lines round my mouth and wrinkly neck, i didn't think my face matched how old i felt. I'm happy so far, but looking 25 years younger is weird. I'm looking forward to settling back into my new face once the swelling reduces 🙏.

My experience was so good I'm returning to Dr Ali for breast augmentation as mine are 18 years old and one breast is capsulated and previously done in the UK.

I had an outstanding experience with Dr. Ali Çetinkaya and his team. From the initial consultation to post-op care, everything was handled with professionalism, warmth, and attention to detail.

Dr. Çetinkaya is not only a highly skilled and talented cosmetic surgeon, but he also truly listens and delivers natural, beautiful results that reflect your goals. I felt informed, supported, and confident every step of the way.

Additionally, Dr. Çetinkaya’s has an outstanding team. They coordinated every detail flawlessly — from appointment scheduling and airport pickups to private transportation. The post-op care was equally impressive.

I genuinely felt like I was in the best hands, both medically and personally. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Çetinkaya and his dedicated team to anyone seeking not just amazing surgical results, but a well-organised, luxury-level experience from start to finish.

If you desire exceptional service and attention to detail, then Dr Ali is your man! Could not have been happier in our choice of having him facilitate our cosmetic surgeries. His team is amazing…inci, Ecem, Gizem and Elif

Making a decision to go to Turkey for plastic surgery is a huge decision, but one that I am SO happy I made. I researched doctors for months; I am a very type A personality (extremely analytical) and basically had an excel spreadsheet listing out countless amounts of criteria. I have worked in the OR/surgery in the US for a decade plus, and I know what to look for.

My hope is that this review can make your search a lot easier and more efficient. Don’t think twice about Turkey, or going to Dr Centinkaya and his extraordinary team.

I am only 11 days out from a deep plane face and neck lift, an upper bleph, a temple lift, lip lift, CO2 laser, and a breast aug revision and I am sitting in the comfort of my own home, without one bruise, barely any swelling, (never had a drain etc), and I am ecstatic with my results. I am a 47 yo female and I went solo.

Dr. Ali is an artist. His “refinements” for me have me feeling like a little supermodel. I look just like I did, but prettier and younger. He is known for his natural aesthetic and that was really important to me. I wanted the “Lindsay Lohan refresh”, not my Grandmothers facelift. I loved that he studied endoscopy under a very famous surgeon in Milano and that he was also up on the famous US surgeons approaches and techniques (the surgeons that cost 180k to see in the US).

The flight over was simple-just take melatonin and sleep. His coordinators literally arrange every single other thing - from your VIP transfers (they were private, posh vans), to your hotel (which has a 24/7 infirmary so there is always a nurse on call), to all consults, to meds, to hyperbaric O2 treatments should you choose to do them (I did 3 and HIGHLY recommend them for speeding up healing), and we’re on call for me 24/7 whilst I was in Turkey. They were all so lovely.

Some tips that helped me immensely and which I think added to my extraordinary healing process:
✨A carry on size roller bag to bring your belongings to the hospital (you stay 2 nights)
✨‘Heal Fast’ Supplements (take before, during and after)
♥️From Amazon:
✨Mini Ninja Blender and Ancient Nutrition Collagen Peptide Protein Powder
✨‘Your Face’ Pillow, Back Sleeper Pillow
✨VitaMedica Arnica Montana and Bromelain w/Querctin (take before, during and after)
✨Ponyflo Sunblocker Wide Brim Hat
✨Happyluxe Shawl Wrap for Women in black (you’ll blend right in)
✨Any super soft, nutritious foods you love

To note: Turkey is more strict than America about meds. In the US, it’s automatic you get A-tivan (to help you sleep and calm your nerves) so I would HIGHLY suggest bringing your own.

So that’s that. As I mentioned, I am 11 days out and could easily put on tinted sunscreen and walk about town. I guarantee in a week I’ll be 100% presentable.

Ps. Re cost: he was far less than some of the surgeons I researched and his results are 5 star ⭐️

Great experience, great results. The office and clinic staff were wonderful to work with. Dr Ali is a genius! I had a difficult job, repairing a
Previous facelift done in California. Dr Ali corrected and enhanced everything. Deep plane face and neck lift, brow lift and temple lift. Also a co2 laser treatment.
