From Germany to Turkey: A Facelift Journey Built on "Incredible" Long-Distance Support
I think it has become beautiful... I feel very well—I feel incredibly well.
Mrs Giordano found the clinic the way many now do — diligent research that ended on Instagram — and travelled from Hamburg for a facelift and neck lift performed under local anaesthesia, our awake approach. The operation took only a few hours, and she reports feeling “very, very good” immediately afterwards, with a result she describes simply: “I think it has become beautiful.””
But the part of her story that answers international patients’ biggest fear comes after the flight home. Being far from your surgeon post-operatively is the anxiety every patient travelling abroad carries — and Mrs Giordano’s experience directly counters it: whenever a worry surfaced back in Germany, she “called again and again”, and the team answered every time. Months later, her summary is as much about that support as the surgery: “I feel incredibly well.””

I had a face, neck and arm lift at AKM. I’m just over 4 weeks post and couldn’t be happier with the results. The entire experience was wonderful! My coordinator, Khadija made me feel comfortable from beginning to end! I highly recommend AKM and will definitely go back for other procedures!

I am beyond grateful I went with AKM Clinic for my deep plane face and neck lift, upper eyelid, and co2 laser. Dr. Akif has magic hands and my results are truly incredible! I came from the US and assistant Emine was the best in assuring every detail was coordinated and communicated with me beyond my expectations every step of the way. 10 out of 10 to the entire team! I couldn’t be more pleased!
