The lift in my jowls is already a dramatic improvement
My biggest worry was how the final result would look, and whether it would be worth the recovery. Even though I’m still quite puffy around my jawline, the lift in my jowls is already a dramatic improvement. That part is a huge relief. The staff and clinic environment were excellent from start to finish. Turning my head feels slightly tight but okay. The surgeon did good work, though I rated them a 4/5 as I felt some communication could have been a bit more compassionate after surgery.The most challenging part has absolutely been sleeping elevated. That's no fun. I would still recommend this clinic.
The Bookined coordinator and the Quartz Clinic staff were fantastic: supportive, helpful, compassionate. All updates were communicated to me promptly. The hotel booked for me is really excellent, with smooth transfers and kind drivers. Spot on!
I didn't give the doctor 5 stars because she made me cry the day after surgery. She could adopt a different approach towards me after surgery, with more understanding and compassion, especially since I was there on my own and at the end of the day, she's received all the information required, it doesn't matter from whom. The stress has a significant impact on me. Aside from that, she was great.

The doctor is a professional, a master, a Creator!
The doctor is an amazingly warm, kind, and attentive person. He listened to my wishes and made adjustments with which I was 100% in agreement.
The doctor is a professional, a master, a Creator! The team is excellently selected, and the staff is attentive and polite. The coordinator was always in touch, and I felt supported at every stage. The surgery was under general anesthesia, and now I feel better than I expected. Care in the clinic was round-the-clock, the staff was always nearby, and later remained in contact. No additional expenses were incurred.
Future patients are advised to bring button-up pajamas and fully prepare for the surgery as instructed by your coordinator. This is important.
The doctor is a professional, a master, a creator!!! The team is wonderfully selected, the staff is attentive and polite. The coordinator is always in touch. I felt supported at every stage. Thank you for being there!

It felt like Dr
What stood out was the surgeon's personal attention. He personally checked on me after surgery. Beforehand, Dr. Yaman explained his deep plane technique very clearly for my facelift, which also included my upper and lower eyes, brows, and a lip lift. This personal touch was part of the overall atmosphere. Every thing had a positive vibe; everyone was professional and warm, and the facilities and transportation were exceptional. It felt like Dr. Yaman really cared for you as a person. My recovery is progressing about as expected. I received a clear aftercare guide and had no additional expenses. For me, a little more language support could be useful, but it didn't hinder the process.

What gave me the most confidence was my surgeon sitting down with me to draw the incision lines right before the procedure
What gave me the most confidence was my surgeon sitting down with me to draw the incision lines right before the procedure.She was very honest about what results would be realistic for my age and even checked on me personally after I woke up from the general anesthesia. The procedure covered my full face and neck, and while it's still too early to tell what the final outcome will be, the support has been good. The staff are always easy to reach. I also appreciated that there were no additional expenses. My main advice would be to arrive a day before your operation for the consultation with your doctor, and make sure to tell them what you eat.
Everything went excellently with the coordinator. The staff were helpful and knowledgeable. Dr Paysal, who was my surgeon, was kind and knowledgeable.
The staff's English could have been better. The food served was the same for lunch and dinner for two days — chicken and rice. I told them I was vegetarian, but was still served chicken and rice for lunch and dinner.

If you’re considering a deep SMAS facelift, my main piece of advice is to take great care when choosing the clinic itself. Personally, I was very impressed by the doctor and the staff. Before the operation, the surgeon marked out the incision lines and examined me personally afterwards. The coordinator was also in constant contact. My operation involved the neck and lower face, plus lipofilling under general anaesthetic. At the moment, I feel pretty much as I expected. There were no additional costs. However, my overall impression of the clinic is average, which is why my overall rating isn’t very high. So my main advice to future patients is to find out more about the clinic in detail!
The coordinator was always available. No bruising at all – it’s even a bit suspicious; I’m not sure what treatment I actually had. Perhaps it was SMAS rather than deep plane.
The consultation with the doctor took place in his office, not at the clinic! The operation was carried out at the old city hospital! The doctor said very little about the operation, and particularly about the risks! There were far more incisions and stitches than had been agreed during the consultation!

My surgeon was fantastic. I felt very reassured when he took the time to explain the deep plane technique so clearly and even drew the incision lines with me right before my surgery. He also personally checked on me after I woke up from the general anesthesia. The procedure covered my full face and neck, and I can confirm there were no additional expenses on top of what was quoted. The clinic facilities are excellent. My only disappointment has been the aftercare, as there has been very little contact from the staff. It's still early in the healing process, so it is too early to tell how the final results will look.
The doctor was warm and patient.
Post-op instructions cold be better .

The surgeon and staff were excellent
My biggest worry was how difficult recovery would be, and whether it would be worth it. The bruising visibility has definitely been the most challenging part, and my under eyes is still quite puffy (fat transplant). Despite that, the improvement in my jowls is already dramatic. My neck feels slightly tight when I turn my head, but it's okay. The surgeon and staff were excellent. My most essential tip is to be prepared: recovery really does require time and patience, plus a lot of help from a friend or partner. Sticking to soups, fruits, and veggies instead of hard food has been a huge help.
I had a deep plane facelift at this clinic, and the entire experience was very positive from start to finish. The process was very well planned, with everything running smoothly and on time, which made me feel calm and well taken care of throughout.
The doctor was highly professional, clear, and very concrete in communication. What I especially appreciated was their thoughtful approach. they suggested an additional procedure that I hadn’t originally considered, but which ultimately enhanced the overall result in a very natural and balanced way.
I felt supported at every stage, from consultation through recovery. The attention to detail, organization, and medical expertise truly stand out. I would absolutely recommend this clinic to anyone considering similar procedures.
I had no bad experience but the results are still to be visible within next couple of months.

I can already see a significant improvement in my sagging cheeks thanks to the deep plane facelift
The surgeon and the staff did a good job; the overall experience was positive for me. The biggest challenge during my recovery was the extreme difficulty I had eating, which really affected me during the first few weeks, and having to sleep sitting up. Medically, everything went well. The swelling along the jawline is minimal after 10 days and I can already see a significant improvement in my sagging cheeks thanks to the deep plane facelift.
My neck still feels slightly stiff when I turn my head, but it’s fine. As autologous fat was taken from my abdomen, there’s still a pulling sensation there, like severe muscle soreness; I notice it particularly when I stand up. But it’s getting better every day. My top tip: take time to recover after the operation and ideally travel with someone else. Loose-fitting clothes with wide necklines are essential, as is eating slowly in small bites and drinking plenty of water. Everything else will fall into place in time
Whenever I was unsure, I was able to ask the doctor and consult her, which gave me great reassurance.
I felt a bit helpless with the nausea after the anaesthetic. The nurse always came straight away, though; it would have been nice if she’d spoken English.

The improvement in the jowl area is simply striking
What I feared most was a long and painful recovery. I was worried that the swelling would last for months. But it’s only been 15 days since my deep SMAS facelift, and the swelling along my jawline is already minimal – it’s almost gone. The improvement in the jowl area is simply striking. My neck feels a little tight when I turn my head, but it’s quite bearable. The staff and my surgeon were very supportive. Perhaps the hardest part of the recovery was sleeping in an elevated position. My main advice for anyone considering this operation: be patient!

I’m giving five stars for Dr
I’m giving five stars for Dr. Ianus’ work because his surgical work is truly remarkable. Dr. Ianus is kind, gentle, extremely professional, and meticulous in everything he does. The person who supported me through BookMed was Tetiana, and she was absolutely flawless. From the very beginning, I felt guided and safe.
From Dr. Ianus’ team in Istanbul, Lara was the one assisting me — and she is a very warm, empathetic person who was always available to help with whatever I needed. I also want to highlight the hotel offered by the team, Modus Hotel. The staff there were very helpful and attentive, especially after I returned from surgery. Even though I traveled alone, I could count on their kindness and support throughout.
That said, I want to leave a sincere piece of advice: if you’re planning to have a more extensive surgery — like I did (involving multiple areas) — be aware that the first two days can be quite challenging, both physically and emotionally. In such cases, I strongly recommend that you are not alone at the hospital. Having someone with you can make a big difference.
With this, I leave my heartfelt recommendation, full of gratitude and respect. Dr. Ianus is an excellent surgeon, Tetiana and Lara are wonderful people, and although the journey had its challenges, everything was handled with great professionalism
The final result.
Being alone in the hospital after such an extensive surgery.

Thank you all for your care and excellent work!
My Experience at Dr. Med’ Clinic
The team was absolutely wonderful. The surgery went smoothly, and I’m truly grateful to Dr. Yunus, all the clinic staff, and especially Dr. Yunus and Akylay. Everything was organized professionally, with care and efficiency.
I underwent a deep plane facelift and neck lift, as well as upper and lower blepharoplasty. Overall, I am very satisfied with both the results and the service.
My only suggestion would be this: for such major plastic surgeries, the patient should ideally stay at the clinic for at least 3 days under medical supervision. This is essential for proper recovery and peace of mind.
Also, I would prefer that Dr. Yunus personally performs the bondage changes, as he does them best — and it noticeably speeds up the healing process.
Aside from that, everything was top-notch: the team is responsive, caring, and highly professional. Thank you all for your care and excellent work!
I really appreciated the staff’s efficiency — their ability to respond quickly to my needs, react promptly to my messages, and show genuine care, empathy, and commitment to my smooth recovery and overall experience.
What I didn’t like was that the consultation took place on the same day we arrived. It was exhausting, as we were sleep-deprived, tired, and unable to fully process the information the doctor was giving us. It was an unpleasant experience.
We had booked our flight based on a recommendation from the Doctor-Med clinic’s sales department.
Another thing that disappointed us was being hospitalized for only one day — we had to extend the stay ourselves for the second day.
I strongly believe that after such serious surgeries, the patient should be hospitalized for at least two days for proper medical supervision and recovery.

I was so impressed with how every little detail of my visit was meticulously dealt with by Defe.
From the moment I got off the plane EVERY small detail was taken care of. From my limo pick up just for myself to the hotel (a 5*+ hotel at least). Check in then hospital Dr Ali was such an expert and explained everything before my operation and made sure I knew exactly what was going to happen.After the operation I had the ultimate first class care and attention and had my very own night nurse from 20:00 until 08:00 for both evenings in hospital. My limo was waiting to take me back to the hotel where I had a 24 hour infirmary clinic. I also had a nurse that visited daily to ch CK and administer my medication and creams and ensure I was feeling ok every day. Defe was my contact and she was at the end of the phone 24/7 for texting, ringing and make me feel safe and well.
The hotel is above and beyond anything I have ever known, the staff are all helpful, the hotel security is absolute top notch. I was on the fourth floor my pass key would only allow me to go to or from they floor to the ground level OR roof terrace, each person on any one floor were ultra safe at all times.
Dr Ali a man with such intricate hands using cutting edge technology to the best possible expertise. the hospital was ultra clean, sterile and quiet, the atmosphere was so chilled happy and caring at all times the hotel, the immaculate cleanliness of the hotel at all times of the day or night. The restaurant had every type of food available that everyone was able to find something they each liked to eat. The meals were 5* cuisine, and melted in your mouth.

The work he did on me was outstanding
Surgery in Turkey,
I am 60 years old, and I travelled to Istanbul for a Deep Plane Facelift and a lower and upper Blepharoplasty.
Bookimed, I am so grateful to you, I could not have made this journey without your assistance. Thank you very much for your guidance and patience. I hope I did not give you a hard time.
Turkey is a safe place to travel, it is safer than Paris, Milan or Manhattan. I never felt in danger in Istanbul.
From the moment I arrived at Lokman Hekim Hospital, everything was taken care of by Ismael Ali, who is an easy going and friendly translator.
The pre-operative test were done as soon as I arrived.
The day after I met Doctor Murat Yaman who is a friendly and open person. Before travelling to Istanbul I checked his background and found him to be a very good and competent surgeon. So, on that day I was relaxed for the surgery because I knew I was going to be in good hands.
The work he did on me was outstanding. I am still in the healing process. My eyes are a bit irritated, but that is normal. My face is still a bit swollen but it no longer hangs. My face has changed expression from appearing to be sad or angry to reflecting a normal emotion.
A big thanks to the Lokman Hekim Hospital staff some of them spoke a little bit of English others were fluent but all of them were caring, kind, super friendly and always ready to help.
The whole experience.

It was the best decision I could have made
I was very sceptical at first, did a lot of research and asked a lot of questions.
In the end, I chose Dr Ali Sadioglu - and that was the best decision I could have made.
Dr Sadioglu completely won me over with his calm, empathetic manner, his many years of experience and his exceptional patience. I opted for a deep plane facelift and lipofilling - and the results far exceeded my expectations.
Dr Sadioglu works extremely precisely, takes a lot of time and responds to individual wishes. You feel that you are not only in good hands with him professionally, but also personally.
He and his team delivered the all-round carefree package. I had 9 nights in a great hotel. I spent two nights in hospital after the operation. During this time, I had my own nurse on site for two nights, who was provided by Dr Sadioglu. Many thanks also to Nurse Shawa for her kind and very warm manner and care. This personal care gave me an additional feeling of safety and security. Dr Sadioglu himself was on site for two days to check on the healing process.
In the following days at the hotel, a nurse from Dr Sadioglu came by every day for a check-up and there was also a nurse on site 24/7 at the hotel itself.
A small side note: the VIP transfer service was unfortunately not quite as reliable as expected. However, this is not the fault of Dr Sadioglu's team, but is the sole responsibility of the external provider.
The medical care and the entire practice team (Defne, Buse, Elif) were first class in every respect.
If you are looking for an excellent surgeon for a facelift, you are definitely in the very best hands with him. For me there is no better surgeon, he enjoys my complete trust because he knows exactly what he is doing. I would have an operation performed by Dr Ali Sadioglu again at any time.
A tip for after the operation: get some cool packs from the local pharmacy and put them in the fridge in your hotel room.
It was the best decision I could have made.
The implementation and care by Dr Sadioglu and his Resm.
The somewhat gruff staff in the hospital itself.
