Erkam Caymaz

  • 14 years of experience
  • 5378+ treatments performed
  • Location: Turkey, Istanbul
  • "I graduated from medical school in 2010 and specialized in cardiovascular surgery. My training was built on microvascular anastomoses—suturing blood vessels under a microscope where a 0.1-millimeter error could end a life. I loved the discipline. I loved the pressure. But I slowly noticed something that unsettled me: in the chaos of emergency surgery and intensive care, the patient rarely remembers your face. You save their life, but you are a ghost in their survival story.

    In 2012, a 31-year-old man was recovering in my ICU after a successful valve replacement. His vitals were stable, but his heart rate refused to settle. The nurses said he would not look in the mirror. He had lost his hair years earlier, and the hospital gown made him feel stripped of his identity. One morning, I sat beside him and asked what was wrong. He said, 'Doctor, you fixed my heart. But when I go home, my daughter will still ask why Daddy looks sick.'

    That night, I studied his chart again. Tachycardia with no cardiac cause. It was shame. Pure, physical shame. I referred him to a dermatologist for a hair system temporarily, and within a week, his heart rate normalized. His cardiologist colleague laughed at me. 'You are a heart surgeon. You are worried about hair?' I told him: 'His heart was beating 120 times per minute because of a mirror. I fixed the valve. Someone else needs to fix the mirror.' Read more..

FAQ

These FAQs come from real patients seeking medical assistance through Bookimed. Answers are given by experienced medical coordinators and trusted clinic representatives.

Are eyelash transplant doctors in Turkey fully licensed and board-certified plastic surgeons?

Practitioners in Turkey are not all board-certified plastic surgeons. While many hold prestigious certifications, regulations also allow general doctors with specialized certificates to perform eyelash transplants. Verified experts often have international training and memberships in societies like ISAPS or the European Board of Plastic Surgery.

  • Specialized credentials: Dr. Hakan Bulam holds European Board certification (FEBOPRAS) for plastic surgery.
  • Microsurgical training: Dr. Şerif Yavuz completed microsurgery training at the University of Zurich for precision.
  • International exposure: Dr. Ömer Faruk Deveci trained in Miami and at Seacroft Hospital in England.
  • Diverse backgrounds: Some experts like Dr. Ismet Emrah Emre combine ENT precision with facial aesthetics.

Bookimed Expert Insight: Data shows that top-tier results often come from doctors with dual academic and clinical backgrounds. For example, Dr. Tayfun Türkaslan is an Associate Professor who has published over 20 articles in international journals. Choosing a doctor with academic standing typically indicates a commitment to the latest microsurgical techniques for delicate areas like the eyes.

Patient Consensus: Patients note that standards vary between clinics and emphasize verifying who actually performs the implantation. Many felt reassured after direct communication with surgeons who could prove their hospital affiliations and specific medical licenses.

How can I tell a highly qualified Turkish eyelash doctor apart from an unqualified one?

Identify highly qualified eyelash doctors by checking for the Turkish title Op. Dr. and plastic surgery board certification. Specialized surgeons hold European Board (EBOPRAS) fellowships and membership in the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ISAPS). These credentials confirm formal surgical training and adherence to international safety protocols.

  • Surgical titles: Surgeons must hold the Op. Dr. title for regulated surgical residency completion.
  • International fellowships: Top doctors like Dr. Hakan Bulam are European Board Certified (FEBOPRAS).
  • Plastic surgery membership: Look for membership in the Turkish Society of Plastic Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgeons.
  • Hospital accreditation: Qualified doctors perform procedures in Ministry of Health authorized or JCI-accredited facilities.

Bookimed Expert Insight: Patient data shows that elite Turkish surgeons often possess advanced training from the USA or Europe. Dr. Omer Faruk Deveci trained in Miami, while Dr. Mehmet Mustafa Kiyar holds over 30 years of experience with dual Turkish and European board certifications. This international exposure is a key indicator of doctors who prioritize precise graft placement and oculoplastic safety.

Patient Consensus: Real patients emphasize looking for doctors who personally design the lash line rather than using technicians. They suggest being cautious of clinics that push for quick deposits or promise perfect results without explaining risks. It is common for experienced surgeons to discuss the necessity of regular lash trimming after the procedure.

Will the lead surgeon perform the entire eyelash transplant, or do technicians do it?

Qualified surgeons in Turkey lead the surgical steps of an eyelash transplant to maintain safety. The lead surgeon must harvest donor follicles and create precise recipient sites. These specialists also dictate the growth angle. This level of involvement is vital for protecting the eye during this complex procedure.

  • Surgical harvesting: Licensed physicians perform the donor hair extraction to protect the scalp.
  • Site creation: Surgeons create the microscopic incisions along the eyelid to set the lash direction.
  • Graft preparation: Trained technicians use microscopes to meticulously trim and clean individual follicles.
  • Safety oversight: Board-certified surgeons supervise the procedure to help prevent corneal irritation or scarring.

Bookimed Expert Insight: Data shows that top Turkish clinics follow a surgeon-led model for complex delicate areas. For example, Dr. Erkam Caymaz at Hair Upload Clinic only performs one VIP surgery per day. This ensures the specialist is present for critical steps. Other specialists like Dr. Hakan Bulam hold European Board certifications, which verify their surgical training in aesthetic facial procedures.

Patient Consensus: Patients note it's important to ask who will place each graft before booking. They often feel more comfortable when the surgeon handles the planning and site creation themselves. Many realize that natural-looking results come from the surgeon directing the exact angle of the lashes.

Do eyelash transplantation doctors in Turkey speak English?

Eyelash transplantation doctors in Turkey often speak English and maintain international qualifications. Leading specialists like Dr. Hakan Bulam and Dr. Tayfun Türkaslan hold European fellowships or trained in the UK and USA. Clinics catering to international patients provide coordinators to manage detailed communication during the procedure.

  • International training: Many surgeons completed residencies or fellowships in England, Belgium, or Finland.
  • Global certifications: Top doctors hold European Board of Plastic Surgery (EBOPRAS) or ISAPS memberships.
  • Dedicated support: Dedicated international centers at clinics manage translations and logistics for foreign patients.
  • Microsurgical focus: Surgeons trained in Zurich or New York bring technical precision to delicate transplants.

Bookimed Expert Insight: Data shows that many Turkey-based doctors who perform eyelash transplants also hold leadership roles in international patient centers. For instance, Dr. Firdavs Ahmedov served as Vice President of an International Patient Center after training at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York. This dual experience ensures they understand the specific communication needs and expectations of patients traveling from abroad.

Patient Consensus: Patients note that medical teams are professional and pleasant to talk to during the stay. While some realize that coordinators handle many logistical questions, they find the overall level of communication and care remains high. It is helpful to get written English instructions for aftercare to ensure everything is clear after leaving the clinic.

Can I consult directly with the Turkish surgeon before traveling to the country?

You can definitely consult with Turkish surgeons before traveling for eyelash transplantation. Reputable clinics use video calls to assess your donor hair and discuss aesthetic goals. These virtual meetings help determine if you are a candidate for FUE or DHI methods before you book your flight.

  • Virtual screening: Surgeons use WhatsApp or Zoom to examine photos of your eyelids and hair.
  • Technique selection: Doctors like Dr. Hakan Ikizoglu discuss using Sapphire FUE or DHI for precision.
  • Credential review: You can verify European Board or ISAPS memberships during the online session.
  • Logistics planning: Bookimed coordinators manage the scheduling and provide translators for the video call.

Bookimed Expert Insight: Many top Turkish specialists have international training backgrounds that facilitate smooth consultations. For instance, Dr. Firdavs Ahmedov trained at Mount Sinai in New York, while Dr. Ömer Faruk Deveci completed training in Miami and Seattle. This global exposure means they are accustomed to the specific cosmetic expectations and communication styles of international patients.

Patient Consensus: Patients note that video calls made them feel much more comfortable about the delicate procedure. They mentioned that seeing the doctor face-to-face helped them trust the clinic's plan for natural-looking results.

How do doctors in Turkey manage complications or aftercare for international patients?

Turkish surgeons manage aftercare through mandatory discharge protocols and long-term remote monitoring. Doctors provide formal medical clearance and written recovery plans before travel. They use digital telemedicine and complication insurance to support healing after patients return home.

  • Telemedicine protocols: Clinics use video calls and photo reviews to monitor graft health remotely.
  • Complication insurance: Accredited facilities provide specialized coverage for corrective procedures and emergency travel.
  • Discharge summaries: Surgeons issue detailed medication schedules and fit-to-fly documents for continuity of care.
  • International departments: Multilingual coordinators act as 24/7 liaisons between the surgeon and remote patients.

Bookimed Expert Insight: Top specialists like Dr. Firdavs Ahmedov and Dr. Mehmet Erdogan bring deep expertise from managing international patient centers. This leadership background often results in more organized follow-up systems. Patients should prioritize clinics where the surgeon, rather than just administrative staff, reviews post-operative photos to distinguish between normal swelling and actual complications.

Patient Consensus: Patients note that quick responses to messages provide the most peace of mind during recovery. They often emphasize that having a clear, written aftercare plan is vital before leaving Istanbul. Many were surprised by how closely clinics monitored their progress through WhatsApp photo updates.
