Liposuction Maltepe

I recently had liposuction to my (double) chin, chest and abdomen. I can recommend Dr. Demiray and his very efficient team. Everything they said they'd do, they did. Although after the operation I had more pain than I thought, everything from the arrival, pick-up at the airport transfer, admission, surgery, post-op care, follow-up and transfer back to the airport all went smoothly.

I am a 52-year-old Irish woman that wanted initially wanted a 360 body lift. I had a very big tummy and kangaroo pouch - my life was a misery. I had lost all confidence in myself and just had no life basically. I had lost approximately 3 stone in weight and wanted rid of this tummy, I started to research surgeons for this procedure. I came across WhatClinic on google and looked into it, I was particularly drawn to one surgeon Dr Murat Sirici. I then contacted him via WhatsApp and his coordinator Abu got back to me the same day. He had shown my pictures to Dr Murat and the doctor replied with he would not do a 360 body lift due to a number of reasons. My existing medical condition and also it would be too dangerous to go under anaesthesia for a long period as complications can happen, this was when I knew I had a good surgeon. He just didn't want to take my money and put my life at risk he wanted to do what was a safe procedure for me. He suggested a tummy tuck with muscle repair and I decided to go with it and this is only 5 weeks ago. My coordinator Abu arranged all the services: hotel transfers, hospital and everything else. Now please note I am not a seasoned traveller and this was my first time in Turkey and on my own - I was nervous and frightened and excited all at the same time. I flew from Dublin to Istanbul on the 8th of May and was met by Abu my coordinator instantly my fear went away. I was made feel so welcome and knew I was in good hands, he and his driver proceeded to take me to the Elite Dragos hotel where again I was given a very warm welcome. I was brought to my room and I settled for the night, fasting from midnight for surgery next day, the next morning at 7 30 am Abu took me to the hospital which looked like a 5-star hotel. I was seen by Dr Murat and marked up for surgery, then I had blood tests, x-ray and heart echo done to ensure I was able for surgery. Next stop as anaesthetist I was given a jab and that was it, I woke up over 3 hours later I was shivering and shaking after anaesthetic. Dr Murat stayed with me the whole while until this subsided, then I looked down and saw no big tummy. I had pain as it's natural but I was so happy. I had drains in also. That evening the nurses took me walking the corridor it wasn't easy to start but Dr Murat insists on walking as early as possible for circulation and fast healing. I was given soup to drink that evening which was lovely. I must mention the nurses were fantastic and had quite good English they were monitoring me all the time and Dr Murat came to see me 2 or 3 times a day while I was at the hospital also Abu my coordinator was on hand 24/7 he was fantastic. I was discharged from hospital on the 11th of May the Saturday back to the hotel, the staff went above and beyond for me making sure I was ok as I was alone. On Monday it was back to the hospital to have drained out, Dr Murat removed them so gently I didn't even feel it. Once the drains came out I felt so much better. Dr Murat discharged me fully this day with an emphasis on contacting him at any time when I came home if I was unsure or unhappy with anything. Tuesday I relaxed at the lovely hotel and on Wednesday morning 9 am Abu was at the hotel to take me to the airport. We arrived at the airport and he brought me right through to wheelchair assistance then we had to say goodbye. I have shed a few tears that week I was in Istanbul everyone from Dr Murat, my coordinator Abu, the nurses and the hotel staff all of them treated me like I'm part of their family. I was lonesome leaving but happy to be coming home. All I can say is from my experience I would give 20 out of 10 to this surgeon and everyone that made my surgery go so well. I am now back in Ireland and my coordinator is checking in with me every day. I recommend this surgeon and his team 100% to anyone thinking of surgery in Istanbul. On a final note, I will be back for eyelid surgery in the near future.
