All-Inclusive Patient Journey: From the USA to AKM Clinic
You are not just a patient; you are our guest. We understand that traveling from the United States for aesthetic surgery can feel complex. That is why we created a 100% stress-free experience, personally managed by your dedicated patient host. From your first call to your safe return home, we handle every single detail.
Your 6-Step AKM Clinic VIP Journey: A Step-by-Step Guide
We’ve perfected our process for USA patients to be 100% transparent and supportive. Your dedicated Patient Host will be your single point of contact, guiding you personally through every stage.
Your journey begins at home. You'll schedule a no-obligation video call with your Patient Host and our medical team. In this call, you can share your goals, ask questions, and upload your photos. We will then build your personalized treatment plan and provide a fully transparent, all-inclusive price quote in USD.
Once you are ready to proceed, you'll secure your surgery date. From this moment, your Patient Host handles everything. We book your 5-star hotel accommodation from our partner list, schedule your private VIP airport transfers, and confirm all your clinic appointments. The only thing you need to manage is your flight ticket.
Upon landing at Istanbul (IST or SAW), your personal driver will be waiting for you at the arrivals gate, holding a sign with your name. You won't need to worry about taxis or navigation. You'll be escorted to your private, luxury vehicle and taken directly to your 5-star hotel to check in and rest.
Your host will arrange your transfer from the hotel to our clinic. Here, you will meet the surgeon in person for your final, detailed consultation. We will conduct your pre-operative tests (like blood work) and, if using 3D simulation, confirm your aesthetic goals. Your procedure will then be performed in our state-of-the-art, fully accredited facility.
Following your procedure, our medical team will monitor you closely. Your Patient Host will be available 24/7 via WhatsApp for any needs. We will provide all necessary post-operative medications, garments, and detailed care instructions. Before you leave, you will have a final in-person check-up with Dr. Mehmetoğlu to ensure your recovery is progressing perfectly and you are cleared to fly.
Our care does not end when you fly home. We are committed to your long-term results. Your Patient Host will schedule regular virtual follow-up appointments (at 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, and 1 year) so the doctor can monitor your healing progress and answer any questions you have from the comfort of your home in the USA.

Don’t just take our word for it. Hear directly from patients who traveled from the USA about their seamless, supportive, and stress-free experience—from their first call to their safe return home.
Jakayla USA
Had a deep plane facelift and lower eyelid procedure at AKM Clinic 7 months ago. The results are fantastic - very subtle and natural. I didn’t expect the entire experience to be so comfortable. Hande managed everything and kept in contact even after I returned to USA. I’m beyond pleased with the outcome and the care I received. Would do it again in a heartbeat!
Julie USA
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!
