Endoscopic Facelift Istanbul

If you are thinking about using Vanity for surgery, you would not regret it. Dr Çağatay Öner performed a neck and lower face lift, and I am happy with the results so far, but I'm only a week post op. I met Dr Çağatay via a video call before deciding if he was the surgeon for me, and he totally put my mind at ease. He speaks excellent French and English (he understands British humour, which is impressive) and is outstanding in his field of work. When arriving in Turkey, I was informed every step of the way about what was happening to me. The day before, I was told the time of the surgery and when the driver would come and pick me up from the hotel. I was also given some documents to review, such as consent forms and liability forms, instead of just being given them on the day. The day of surgery, I was picked up, dropped off and then discussed with the doctor, patient coordinator and anesthesiologist in a consultation room. During the surgeon consultation, they took before pictures, used a special pen on areas he was going to work on, and discussed the procedure and post op care. I never felt pressured to undertake additional surgical work and had no sense of upselling, which is something I was unnecessarily worried about. Then I had the 5-hour surgery, which I can only assume went well as I'm here to write this review! I woke up and felt a bit groggy, but that is to be expected from having a general anaesthesia. I had a random side effect from the GA where my right ankle and foot were numb when I awoke, but now, a week later, I have some feeling back; it's still not 100%, but better than a week ago. I was reassured that the feelings would come back slowly each day and not to worry. I ended up staying in the hospital for 2 days. The hospital rooms were simple, but they had everything they needed and, most importantly, it was exceptionally clean, and I felt looked after and safe. The TV had Netflix and YouTube, which were total saviours in the hospital. The nurses were so lovely and spoke enough English to get by. I need to mention Azize, Beste, Gosia and Rümeysa, who were all lovely nurses who helped me in my recovery whilst at the clinic and hotel. After I left the hospital, I returned to the hotel for 5 days to recover. This was the part I was dreading, but I never felt I was on my own, as the hotel had nurses on site and you could call reception and they would come to your room immediately. Also, I still had regular appointments back at the clinic to remove the drains, stitches and to be 'signed off' before I could fly home. I also made sure I sat in the hotel lobby for a change of scenery. I did a lot of people-watching whilst pretending to read my book! Post op you have to wear a compression garment for a week, 24/7 and then reduce it in the second week, just to sleep in. I have now flown home and back with my family in the UK to rest. I very much recommend Vanity. My results are TBA as it takes roughly 3 months for your face to relax and settle, but I can most certainly see a difference already. Doctors, nurses, housekeeping, drivers and my patient co-ordinator made this experience a positive one. A big shout-out to the wonderful Murat (patient co-ordinator) who was so patient with my endless questions, from popular culture to vegetarian Turkish food. A lovely, compassionate young man who radiates kindness. Murat is an asset to Vanity. I am going to be back in Istanbul in just over 3 weeks, and Vanity are kindly letting me return for a post op check up. So far, nothing has worried or alarmed me, but just for peace of mind, as I am going to be nearby, it makes sense to have a check-up. If after reading this review, you are still wondering if surgery is for you, then please do request a video call with the surgeon as it will put your mind at rest. I however fully endorse Vanity.

I’m really happy with my experience at Askeroglu Health Group. I had a Trinity Lift (endoscopic mid-face lift), and from the first consultation to the surgery and recovery, everyone was so kind, attentive, and supportive. My patient coordinator, nurse Can, and doctor made everything feel so easy and comfortable. Even after I returned to my country, they continued checking on me and my recovery, which meant a lot to me. I’m truly glad I chose Askeroglu Health Group. I would definitely recommend them. 🤍

What can I say but Wow clincton is an amazing company. Our representative was Seline and she was so kind, supportive and patient with my daughter and I. My daughter had an operation too and Seline even scrubbed up and went into the operating room with her as she was so nervous. This meant she missed lunch and was at the hospital for hours with her. She was always on call and got all our answers immediately. So kind to us both and Bella and appreciate her so much. The surgeons for both mine and Bella were absolutely brilliant. My result was so natural and I feel and look ten years younger. My daughter’s surgery was done a by an expert with. Perfect results I can thank you Seline and the whole team at Clincton. I highly recommend this company in Turkey.

Dr. Nejat Rustamov, what can I say about him! I went for a plane deep facelift and breast lift, he had his way of convincing me to add a tummy tuck(gave birth to 6 kids), so without a lot of thinking. I said sure, tummy tuck it is! Wow, what a great doctor. He's so professional, so friendly, funny, he makes you feel so comfortable and valued. The surgery took about 6 hours. His assistant, Rahma, was with me step by step, answering my too many questions, she was very honest, very supportive, and never a day made me fee that she was bothered from my questions. After surgery they were taking great care of me. Checking on me, answering all my questions and concerns. So far everything seems to be healing nicely. Nurses in the hospital so sweet and caring. Very clean hospital. I will definitely recommend Dr. Nejat. I came from USA to Turkey by myself. They took great care of me. My final results won't show until atleast 3 more weeks, I'll update then. But for now, I'm so happy that I chose him as my doctor. Deep plane facelift Breast uplift, no implants Tummy tuck and liposuction on my side back Highly recommended and I will definitely go back with him for any future surgery. Pls feel free to ask any questions.

Dr Fi was recommended to me by a friend who had had a facelift with him. He had been very impressed with both the result and the experience, so it gave me confidence to go ahead and book. I had a video consultation with Dr Fi and he agreed I was a good candidate for a neck lift and lower face lift (deep plane), together with upper eyelid surgery and fat injections. I’m 45 and had mild sagging/ laxity around the neck and jaw. I wanted to get more of a snatched look and maximise my appearance before I head into my 50s. I travelled from Spain to Istanbul alone, and the clinic had arranged a luxury transfer from the airport to my hotel. The hotel was located just a minute’s walk from the clinic. Because I had agreed to have the surgery under local anaesthetic with sedation, I was able to be treated in the clinic and not at the hospital. I flew in on a Monday and had the surgery Tuesday night. I was able to do some sightseeing during the day on Tuesday and really loved the city. I met Dr Fi and his team at the clinic, and they spoke English to a high standard, so I felt fully informed of what was going to happen. I was conscious during the surgery, which took around four hours, and was able to communicate. But I was sedated so I was relaxed and for the most part, only experienced a bit of discomfort. I have had surgery previously so the arrangement was ok for me, but it might not be suitable for someone anxious about the procedure. When the surgery was finished, I was able to get up and return to my hotel - one of the kind nurses accompanied me. The first night was quite uncomfortable. Because I wasn’t in the hospital, I couldn’t have the IV painkiller overnight. When I got my medication in the morning, things eased up. And despite being swollen and bruised, by Day 2 I was able to do a bit of work on my laptop and do some gentle walking around the neighbourhood (wearing my headscarf and dark glasses). I had decided to do the trip by myself, which meant I didn’t have anyone to send out for food or to the pharmacy, but I managed ok. I had my check-up on Thursday night, and Dr Fi said everything was looking good. I got my fit-to-fly letter, and I flew home the next day. So in total, I was away for just four nights. I think they would have preferred for me to stay a little longer, but for me, it was better to be back in my own bed. I was able to take the tape off my face and remove the stitches from my eyes today (Sunday) and am healing well. I have cream to apply to my scars, which are hidden in my hairline around the back of my neck and ears. My energy is still a bit lower than normal, but generally, I’m able to go about normal activities. Overall, everything has gone well, and my experience of Turkey and Dr Fi and his team has been great. I’m excited to see the final result!
