Depth Decides Your Downtime.
Fractional laser treats the skin in microscopic columns and leaves healthy tissue between them intact. That untouched tissue drives the repair. How deep the columns go is the single decision that sets both your result and your week.

Rated By The People Who Went Through It.
“Missing teeth affected my daily life for years. From the first exam my doctor’s care and expertise made me feel safe at every stage.”
“Clean, modern hospital and a team that answered every message within minutes. I already recommended them to two friends.”
“One year on and nobody can tell. The hairline they designed suits my face. It does not look transplanted.”
“I wanted my nose softened, not replaced. The surgeon showed me the simulation and the result is exactly that.”
“Fourteen months on and I am 38 kilos lighter. The dietitian called me every single month. That made the difference.”
“Type-2 diabetes for nine years, off medication four months after the bypass. My own doctor could not believe the blood work.”
“Professional, warm and honest. They told me exactly what my donor area could give and never oversold.”
“Forty minutes, local anaesthetic, back at the hotel for lunch. A week later I looked ten years less tired.”
“At 54 I did not want to look done. Six weeks on, friends say I look rested.”
How Fractional Laser Works.
Fractional laser treats the skin in microscopic columns and leaves healthy tissue between them intact. That untouched tissue drives the repair, so collagen rebuilds over the following weeks while healing stays predictable.
Ablative Or Non-Ablative.
Removes the outer layers for deeper acne scars and fine lines. Expect redness, swelling and peeling for several days until the new skin settles.
Heats the dermis without breaking the surface. A smaller step forward for far less downtime, and often the right answer when your calendar will not take a week.

Your dermatologist selects depth and density from your skin type and what you want corrected, with your calendar in mind rather than in spite of it.
Darker Or Tanned Skin.
Melanin-rich skin reacts to heat with pigment shifts more readily, so we go gentler and slower, with settings adjusted to your skin type.
Sun Protection Is Not Aftercare Advice.
Strict sun protection afterwards is part of the treatment, not an optional extra. Post-inflammatory pigmentation is the most common avoidable complication in this whole area.
Plan three to five days in Istanbul. Everything is outpatient, and a specialist dermatologist performs it rather than a technician.
The Ones People Actually Ask.
How much does dermatology treatment cost in Istanbul, Turkey?
We quote after the skin has been examined, not before: the price depends on which treatment your skin actually needs and how many sessions the plan contains. Once the dermatologist has seen your skin you receive a written, all-inclusive figure with nothing added later.
Who carries out the treatment, a dermatologist or a technician?
A specialist dermatologist plans your treatment and performs it. Your skin is examined under magnification first, because the depth of a pigment or the stage of your acne decides the method. We work inside a licensed full-fledged hospital under a Health Tourism Authorisation Certificate from the Republic of Türkiye Ministry of Health, with Temos accreditation and ISO 9001 (UKAS) certified management.
How many days do I need to stay in Istanbul?
Plan 2-4 days for acne or pigmentation treatment and 3-5 days for laser resurfacing. Everything is outpatient. There is no hospital stay. Dermatology carries on after you fly home, so the in-clinic stage is deliberately short and the rest of the plan is carried out at home under review.
What is the downtime after laser resurfacing?
Ablative settings remove the outer layers, so expect redness, swelling and peeling for several days until the new skin settles. Non-ablative settings heat the dermis without breaking the surface, a smaller step forward for far less downtime. Your dermatologist picks the depth with your calendar in mind. Strict sun protection afterwards is part of the treatment, not an optional extra.
Is laser safe on darker or tanned skin?
It can be, with the right device settings and a dermatologist who adjusts them to your skin type. Melanin-rich skin reacts to heat with pigment shifts more readily, so we go gentler and slower. If you arrive with a fresh tan we usually postpone the laser rather than risk it. That decision is made at the examination.
How quickly will I see a result?
Acne responds over months rather than days: medical therapy and peels calm the active lesions first, and scar remodelling with laser or microneedling only begins once the skin is quiet. Superficial sun spots and post-acne marks can fade within weeks of a laser session. Melasma is the slow one. It is managed rather than cured, and it can return.
Do you help with hotel, transfers and translation?
Yes. VIP airport transfers, a translator at every appointment, help booking a hotel near the clinic in Şişli, your medication and aftercare are included in the quoted package. The flight and the hotel room itself are the only things you arrange yourself. Because appointments are short, most patients have plenty of Istanbul left over.
What Stands Behind The Plan.
