My biggest shock was that the initial agreement was completely different from the reality. After I arrived, I was forced to accept new prices and couldn’t go to another clinic. I had Botox injections for my forehead and frown lines, and of course it’s still too early to judge the results. That said, the clinic itself was good and the doctor took the time to carefully mark the injection points, which I really appreciated. However, my experience with the staff was extremely poor. One must also take into account the additional costs of accommodation, flights and transport. For this reason, based on this experience, I would not recommend that any patient travel to Turkey for treatment.

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.

Everything went perfectly
I was initially concerned about the logistics of traveling for a procedure, but the whole experience was very well organized. Everything went perfectly. I’m recovering well without any problems, and I am very satisfied with the treatment and the entire process. The surgeon clearly explained the extraction and implantation steps, which was reassuring. The team was helpful and professional, making it easy to ask any questions before arriving. While post-procedure support has been a little slow to respond, I am still very satisfied. My advice for future patients: follow the clinic’s instructions carefully and bring comfortable button-up shirts.
Hi Everything went perfectly. I’m recovering well without any problems, and I’m very satisfied with the treatment and the whole process. Thank you!

The continued support from the clinic has been the most notable part of my experience so far
The continued support from the clinic has been the most notable part of my experience so far. I was there for Botox injections, targeting my forehead, frown lines, and crow's feet. The process was clear. What made it feel so straightforward was the good communication from start to finish, and I found the team to be a very friendly, professional staff. They answered all my questions. I received between 21 and 40 units, and the final bill had no additional expenses, which was a relief. It is still too early to tell what the full results will be, but the clinic has stayed in touch since the procedure, which I appreciate.
Good communication
Friendly professional staff

The service provided by the surgeon and the staff was excellent from start to finish
My biggest concern was about the clarity of the process and the final costs. In that respect, everything went well. The medical team were very professional and put me at ease before the procedure, which involved an injection of temporary hyaluronic acid, up to 10 ml. Everything went according to plan. One important thing to note: there were additional costs that weren’t included in the initial payment to the clinic, so you need to allow for that. I’m still at the start of my recovery, but the service provided by the surgeon and the staff was excellent from start to finish.
Très bonne accueil Très professionnel
