Your dedicated patient host arranges your five-star hotel and private transfers. You simply book your flight.

Pre-op consultations, your surgery with our specialist team, and post-op checks — all within our clinic.

Recover in comfort at your hotel while we monitor your progress, before you fly home revitalized.
Yes. Your initial consultation with our patient coordinators and the review by our surgical team is 100% free, confidential, and comes with no obligation. We provide this so you can understand your options clearly before you make any decisions.
Our international patient team, fluent in English, is dedicated to prompt service. Our clinic runs on Istanbul time, but we monitor inquiries 24/7 — so across every Canadian time zone, you can typically expect a personal response within 12–24 hours, and much sooner via WhatsApp.
Your photos and goals are reviewed directly by our specialist surgeons, including our founder Dr. Akif Mehmetoğlu. This is not a quote from a salesperson — it is a genuine medical assessment used to build your personalized treatment plan.
Absolutely. We treat patient confidentiality as our highest priority. Our website uses secure (HTTPS) protocols, and all your data and photos are stored in line with strict international privacy standards, including the principles of Canada’s Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA). Your information is never shared with third parties.
For the most accurate assessment (for example, a rhinoplasty or facelift), send clear, well-lit photos of the target area: one from the front, one from the left profile, and one from the right profile. All photos are 100% confidential.
Your personalized quote itemizes everything. Our all-inclusive pathway typically covers the surgeon’s fee, all hospital and anesthesia costs, five-star hotel accommodation, private airport and clinic transfers, and your dedicated English-speaking patient host.
This is one of the most common questions, and the answer matters: the price difference is not due to lower-quality surgeons, materials, or facilities. The reasons are economic — a favourable Canadian-dollar-to-lira exchange rate increases your purchasing power, and operational costs such as clinic rent, salaries, and insurance are lower than in North America. We use the same internationally certified (CE-marked and FDA-approved) materials and operate in JCI-accredited, A-class hospital facilities that meet international standards.
Yes. Turkey has a rigorous medical education and specialization system. Top Turkish surgeons are nationally board-certified by the Turkish Society of Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery, and many hold European board certifications (such as EBOPRAS) and belong to international societies like ISAPS — credentials internationally recognized as comparable to North American board standards, including those of the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada (RCPSC). Our own surgeons reflect this: Dr. Göknil Gültekin is a European Board-Certified Otolaryngologist and a Fellow of the European Academy of Facial Plastic Surgery, while founder Dr. Akif Mehmetoğlu brings over a decade of specialist experience and personally oversees every surgical plan.
Yes — this is our non-negotiable principle. The specialist surgeon who reviews your photos, builds your medical plan, and conducts your final in-person consultation is the same surgeon who performs your procedure from start to finish. We are not a “surgery factory”; we provide a dedicated, one-on-one, surgeon-led experience.
Your safety and long-term results are our priority. Before you fly, you’ll have multiple post-op check-ups with your surgeon. After you return home, your dedicated patient coordinator remains your 24/7 point of contact via WhatsApp and email for a full year, and we schedule regular virtual follow-ups with your surgeon. In the rare event of a complication, we provide full medical guidance, coordinate with your local Canadian physician if needed, and have clear policies for revision procedures.
We encourage you to check our reviews on independent, third-party platforms like Trustpilot and Google Reviews (we’re currently rated 4.6★ from 64 Google reviews). During your private consultation, we can also share — with patient consent — a wider gallery of before-and-after photos relevant to your specific goals and body type, which we often cannot post publicly due to patient privacy.
