The moment I saw the result, even with the initial swelling, I could tell the shape was exactly what I wanted
The moment I saw the result, even with the initial swelling, I could tell the shape was exactly what I wanted. It’s a great feeling. My goal was a more defined tip, and that's precisely what the surgeon delivered using an open approach. The whole process was smooth, and the staff were genuinely caring. The most difficult part of recovery so far is just having to sleep upright, which is temporary. A huge bonus is that I am breathing perfectly through my nose already. I am so grateful for the surgeon's skill and the clear communication from the team.

He was honest about realistic results, examined me thoroughly, and explained the technique—liposuction with gland excision—very clearly
The conversation with my surgeon before the procedure really set the tone. He was honest about realistic results, examined me thoroughly, and explained the technique—liposuction with gland excision—very clearly. I’m still early in my recovery, but I’m feeling better than expected. The support afterward has been solid. The clinic has stayed in touch and gave me a straightforward aftercare guide. The only additional expenses were for recovery medications and compression garments, which was a small and predictable cost. A piece of advice for others: make sure you confirm the most direct route to the airport pick-up location in advance and ask about which airport is most convenient for travel, as it can make a difference.
The care was exceptional. From the moment I opened conversation expressing my interest in the procedure and process, the Bookimedgroup and hospital team walked with me through every step with excellent communication, accommodating all of the travel mishaps, and ensuring that I was comfortable, and took extremely helpful steps l, at their inconvenience, to make me feel well taken care of. The coordinators, nurses, and doctors were professional, kind, and explained each detail as much as I needed to feel that the procedure would be a smooth, safe, and rewarding. I am extremely pleased with the experience, and have already recommended them to my family member, interested in a different procedure. I would be happy to work with them again, and would not even consider another option. They made things almost too easy. The facility was clean, well staffed, and made the stay as comfortable as could be asked for. Everyone was kind and caring, and really made you feel... safe. I would tell anyone on the fence, talk to the Bookimed team, even as an exploratory conversation. There was no pressure, they are sensitive to people's needs and unique situations. You will not regret it. It was a great experience, and we'll into recovery, they are reaching out, checking on my progress, making certain I am doing well. They are a very pleasent group to work with, and extremely personable. Thank you all for the great experience 🙏
Well, the hospital food is a general human complaint, and doesnt count. Sometimes the nurses and I had language difficulties l, but in most cases l, there was someone available to come and translate specific details. Otherwise, I have zero complaints. It was the best medical experience I have had, so it is difficult to site an improvement, directly.

The conversation with my surgeon before the procedure made all the difference
The conversation with my surgeon before the procedure made all the difference. He was respectful of my gender identity and carefully explained which technique would be best for my body, taking the time to discuss my chest masculinization goals. I opted for a result without nipple grafts, with a plan to get tattoos later. So far, my recovery is going about as expected. The clinic has been great about staying in touch. It was also a relief that there were no additional expenses on top of the original price. Everything was straightforward.
Everything was communicated well, and done efficiently.

He actually sketched out the future shape of my beard and showed me photos of his previous work, which immediately cleared up any doubts I had
What gave me the most confidence was the conversation I had with the doctor before the procedure. He didn’t just listen; he actually sketched out the future shape of my beard and showed me photos of his previous work, which immediately cleared up any doubts I had. The doctor personally carried out the entire transplant procedure, transplanting 2,000–3,000 grafts using the DHI method. Now, whilst I’m recovering, I feel better than I expected. The support from the clinic is a great help: they’re always available, take an active interest in how I’m feeling, and provided clear aftercare instructions. There were no hidden charges. If you’re planning to have the procedure, bear in mind that you don’t need to bring anything special with you; they’ll provide everything you need on the day.
Everything was brilliant, the staff were brilliant, and the doctor was a real charmer! As it turned out, the person accompanying me actually had a shared history with my home town. Everything was top-notch! And the most important lesson I learnt was how skilfully they sold me their service! As we work in the service sector, this is an invaluable lesson.

Everything went smoothly
My consultation with the surgeon was clearly. He was very honest about the level of breathing improvement I could expect, which I appreciated, and it was reassuring that he personally handled both the initial meeting and my septoplasty with rhinoplasty. I’m still in the early stages of healing, but I'm feeling better than expected. The procedure was done under general anesthesia. The support afterward has been solid; the clinic gave me a clear aftercare guide and the staff has always been easy to reach. It was also a relief that there were no additional expenses beyond what was quoted. Everything went smoothly.
Everything was beyond expectation, from the online support until the day we came back was everything great, no worries about anything, the staff was lovely, the doctor make you feel very comfortable with everything, and translators were really kind. Felt very safe every step of the way.

I would absolutely recommend this clinic
What worried me most was how I'd manage the recovery, especially the no-sitting rule. It's a challenge. Finding a comfortable sleeping position has been the hardest part so far. My projection already looks good, although it is still quite swollen. The areas where they performed the VASER lipo feel lumpy and hard, which I understand is part of the early healing process. Despite the discomforts of recovery, the surgeon and the entire staff were supportive and professional, which made a huge difference. I would absolutely recommend this clinic.
Staff are friendly and the clinic was professionally clean and the nurses were friendly always at your service when you need them everything was properly organised from airport transport to hospital I loved the clinic it was very comfortable wouldn’t mind staying there throughout my recovery,the doctor was friendly always coming to check on you.
The clinic food 2/5 Mayb because I’m not used to Turkish cuisine I ate fruits most of the time.

The doctor is brilliant; he did everything to the highest standard
Everything was quick and efficient. There was a mix-up with my tickets, so I arrived a day early; they arranged a hotel for me, and the price we’d originally agreed on didn’t change. The doctor is brilliant; he did everything to the highest standard. I’m still in the recovery process, but it’s already clear that the result is fantastic. Thanks to Olesya, the interpreter, for her promptness, even outside working hours.

What really stood out was my surgeon
What really stood out was my surgeon. He did the consultation and markings personally, which was a very reassuring start to my bilateral arm lift procedure. It was a lift only, with no liposuction. I'm still early in my recovery, and so far, I'm feeling about as expected. The staff and clinic were excellent, and importantly, there were no additional expenses on top of the quoted price. It's too early for me to say much about the aftercare support. My one major piece of advice for future patients: take snacks. The food was mostly the same everyday, not great, and included what must be the worst soup I have ever tasted.
Ismael was there for any questions and got back to me quickly.
a little more information on what is going to happen and when more informed without having to ask.
