Which approach suits your nose is decided by how much tip work it needs, not by surgeon preference and not by what you ask for by name. The price here is the same either way, so there is nothing to steer you toward.
Works entirely through incisions inside the nostrils. Suits a prominent dorsal hump with a tip that needs little more than a small refinement, thin to medium skin, no previous surgery. Keeping the tip ligaments intact means less swelling and a nose that settles noticeably faster in the first three months.
Adds a four-millimetre incision across the columella and lifts the skin so the cartilage framework can be seen directly. That visibility matters when the tip is asymmetric, over-projected, or has been operated on before. Revision cases and thick-skinned tips are almost always open.
We decide from photographs and an examination. If your tip is symmetric and your main complaint is the profile, we will say a closed approach is enough.
The incision that worries patients most is the one that disappears fastest. It sits in a V or stair-step across the narrow bridge of skin between the nostrils, an area with excellent blood supply and no tension pulling the edges apart.
At three months most patients cannot find it in a mirror without tilting the head back. At a year it is usually a pale line most people never notice. Redness in the first eight weeks is normal and settles without treatment.
Cartilage can be reshaped precisely. Skin drapes over whatever is underneath, and thick, sebaceous nasal skin drapes slowly. The framework may be exactly right on the table and still read as undefined for a year while the soft tissue contracts onto it.
This is not a complication and it is not something a different technique avoids. It is the reason we photograph skin thickness at the consultation and tell thick-skinned patients that their twelve-month photograph, not their three-month one, is the result.
If your septum is deviated, correcting it during the same operation costs one recovery instead of two and protects the shape. Straightening a nose from the outside while leaving a crooked septum inside pulls the result back toward the deviation over the following year.
It is also where the cartilage graft usually comes from, which means the material used to support your tip is your own and is already being harvested.
It is when it is done properly. Your operation takes place in a licensed full-fledged hospital with intensive care on site, performed by a board-certified plastic surgeon, under a Health Tourism Authorisation Certificate from the Republic of Türkiye Ministry of Health. We also hold Temos international accreditation and an ISO 9001 (UKAS) certified management system. Ask any clinic abroad for these three things before you book.
Plan 6-7 nights for most operations: consultation and tests on day one, surgery on day two, one night in hospital where needed, then dressing changes and the final check-up before you fly. Eyelid surgery and small procedures need only 3-4 nights.
A plastic surgeon certified by the Turkish Ministry of Health, never an assistant or technician. You meet your surgeon before the operation, discuss what is realistic for your anatomy, and the same surgeon sees you at the post-operative check-up.
Lower running costs, favourable exchange rates and high surgical volume, not lower standards. The implants, sutures and devices are the same CE-certified brands used in Europe, and our surgeons operate every week rather than a few times a month.
Flying is normally cleared 5-7 days after surgery. Desk work is possible after about a week for rhinoplasty and eyelid surgery, and 2-3 weeks for body procedures such as tummy tuck, BBL or mommy makeover. Your surgeon gives you a written timeline for your case.
Yes. VIP airport transfers, a translator in your language and help with hotel booking are part of every package, and your coordinator stays with you from the first message until long after you fly home.
Before and after, where the scar actually sits, and the result once it has settled months later rather than on the day the dressing came off.
The rest of the before-and-after set is on the plastic surgery page.
A SMAS lift tightens the muscular layer.
Eyelid SurgeryEight to twelve millimetres of skin, marked with you sitting upright and rechecked with a pinch test.
Vaser LiposuctionVaser emulsifies fat before any of it is suctioned, so it leaves through a smaller cannula with less tearing of the tissue around it.
BBL (Brazilian Butt Lift)Every millilitre goes into the subcutaneous layer.
Your country code fills itself in. A surgeon reads them and replies with what is realistic, including when the answer is no.
