Abdominal Liposuction in test — get 3 top clinic matches with costs

The assistants and the doctors were great, clear explanations, details. The care from the assistant before operation and after, the next day it was great. However, the grab taxis for consultations were not very comfortable—not spacious, not comfortable, old tapestry, smell inside, which made us feel annoyed before surgery when already nervous and irritated. When we came back for post-operative checking we already made an appointment but in the end we had to wait 2 hours more from the appointed hour.

My biggest concern before the trip was unexpected additional costs, and unfortunately that concern proved to be justified. My additional costs for two lymphatic drainage sessions, an anti-thrombosis injection for the return flight and meals at the hotel amounted to €450. My advice to future patients is therefore: you should definitely clarify any additional costs that may arise. Apart from that, my surgeon was excellent. He marked the areas very carefully before the operation, which put me at ease. Over 4 litres of fat were removed during the Vaser liposuction, and my recovery has so far gone as expected. The clinic provided me with good support afterwards, was always available and gave me clear aftercare guidelines. If your language skills are not sufficient, you should definitely ask for an interpreter.

I was really worried about the recovery period, and the truth is it hasn’t been as easy as I expected. My stomach is still swollen, and the compression garments are still tight, but the hardest part so far has been dealing with the annoying numb patches. That said, the surgeon and the whole medical team have been absolutely brilliant. The doctor explained to me that he used ultrasound technology (VASER) and removed between 3 and 4 litres of fat, and I felt I was in safe hands with them. Unfortunately, the clinic’s facilities weren’t up to the same standard as the quality of medical care, which is why I’ve given it a lower rating. Overall, I’m optimistic about the final result.

My biggest worry was whether I'd see a real difference after having Vaser on multiple areas, especially since they removed over four liters. It’s still early, but the swelling is much less now, and I can definitely see subtle changes taking shape. The surgeon and the staff were fantastic from start to finish. They are a solid team. The main challenge for me is just the compression garment making my skin itchy, but that's part of recovery. While the clinic facilities were generally fine, they weren't on the same level as the medical care itself. It's a process. Overall, I feel this was a worthwhile decision.

While I am still on the rehabilitation period at home, tomorrow is a week after the operation and check-up with the doctor. I had liposuction of the abdomen and sides + Brazilian buttocks lift + breast lift, all in one day. The first 3-4 days of rehabilitation are the hardest, but then much easier, the staff / help / service at the highest level, doctor Ergin Er - a doctor from God, I advise everyone, a professional of his work!!!!. I will post photos after at least a month, but the forms are visually visible and pleasing to the eye!!!! Special thanks to Bukimed platform for the selection of clinic, doctor, quick answers to all questions and support, as well as translator Varvara, very responsive, kind, nice girl!

I chose this clinic based on the reviews and I am writing myself. Catherine gave me all the information and helped me with all my organised questions. I had a breast augmentation and a mini tummy tuck just over a week ago and everything was top notch. The contact persons were always in touch with me, available for feedback at any time. The operation was successful , the anaesthesia was mild . Dr Hakan Teymur is empathic, pleasant person, with attention and individual attitude to the patient. Many thanks to Akylay, who supported me and was always in touch with me. Very kind person. Narmina is a very pleasant, positive girl. Now I will wait for the result.

My stay in the clinic was not long, but the volume of the operation was huge, in my opinion. I felt not bad, like many patients of this clinic, after the operation the next day, after the examination, I was allowed to go home. Everything was fine in the ward clean, sterile where necessary, I have no complaints about this. The clinic itself has a calm and cozy atmosphere. The staff is polite and understanding. And, of course, I would like to mention the surgeon Mindaugas Kazanavičius, who performed the operation and coped brilliantly tasks. Many thanks to him for this!

Good evening. My name is Anna. I will start my story with the fact that I am not the first time I come to Turkey to correct some nuances in myself. That is, there is something to compare! The first person I want to talk about is Dr MED. He is a professional, I would say a fan, he lives and breathes his work. From the first meeting with a banal Hallo to the marking before surgery from the doctor one positive and kindness. He has incredible energy and love for his work. My plans for the operation were global on this visit, but they were not fated to come true. During the operation my blood pressure jumped to 150 and fluctuated during 3 hours from 90 to 150 - it was decided by the anaesthesiologist and the doctor to stop the operation. As a result, only liposuction of the abdomen 360 degrees and correction of the chin was performed. Secondly is of course Dr Mad and his staff . Everything was organised initially through Bookingmed, prices and conditions were agreed with them at the beginning. As soon as we arrived in Turkey we were organised a comfortable transfer to the hotel. In the morning we had a lovely interpreter, Lara, who was with us for the whole 7 days of our stay in Turkey. Very competent staff, the night after the operation I was cared for by two nurses who every hour I put a drip of different medicines and brought me food and water. It was very nice to see Larochka who was on call 24/7. In the third hotel and hotel staff, very attentive and responsive. At any request it was always, quickly and without unnecessary conversations. I had breakfast in the room the first 4 days as it was hard to walk me. Even on the second day they brought me soup in my room in the evening in the hotel, which was especially nice. Thank you to your team DOCTOR MED for your professional approach. RECOMMEND.

The surgery is performed at the clinic not at a hospital which concerned me (were they prepared if something went wrong), the rooms opened up to the front desk where people would come for appointments and the toilet was across reception. I felt I didn't have much privacy and was very exposed. Nurses would not always come especially at night when I needed assistance to the toilet. I would be waiting at my hotel for a car and they would have forgotten to send one so the organisation level was not very good. It wasn't a very friendly/caring environment i felt. The communication was very poor too, there was one lady there that spoke English and she never smiled it just didnt feel good. I spoke to the doctor very briefly on surgery day and then he never spoke to me again. I wouldnt go back, ive had surgery in Thailand before and had a far better experience.

Dr Burak pasinlioglu was fantastic could not of asked for a better surgeon...at the clinic everyone was organised I want to express my thanks to Ryan he spoke fantastic English and went out of his way to help me and my husband!! Transfer.. communication...after care was a 10/10

I liked everything. I really want to thank the team who helped throughout the entire treatment. Narmina and Muhlise are excellent helpers. Always supported and motivated. I was greeted by a luxurious luxury transfer. The service at the clinic is excellent. Then the hotel is good. I am very glad that I chose Dr. Hakana Teymura. He is very attentive and professional in his field. His energy gave me no reason to worry at all. I just trusted and got a good result. I'll send you photos of my perfect belly soon. I will be happy to recommend this clinic to my friends and acquaintances. Thank you very much for everything and for my beauty. See you soon!!!

I am 2/3 weeks post surgery and had 360 lipo ( and some at hips too) and a tummy tuck. Dr Ergin er was marvellous as was Abdul. Dr E wasn’t sure he could help the sagging back fat I had fearing it was skin but nope - he’s fixed that too! It has all been quite an experience but once you’re past all the stuff like waking up post surgery ( take bottles of water if you wake and can’t find anything to drink) and the drains! Which almost made me faint and IV - all essentially stuff if you’re going to see the result you want - well with dr Ergin and Abdul you could change your life. For me it’s been a massive deal I honestly am thrilled and feel so lucky. Results wise I perhaps don’t have the swellingbthat everyone earns you about as my stomach is I think pretty tiny - and my thighs lighter. It’s so hard to figure out how he has done what he’s done - but I’m feeling now like the me I was 15 years go. A flat tummy, lighter on my feet and ready to feel the effects of healthy eating and exercise that just didn’t make a dent in the weight and tummy skin before. Be ready with lots of paracetamol. I wasn’t. I didn’t realise all the pain killers I had were blood thinners. Ibuprofen etc. Yes of course the wonderful team will provide pain killers but you won’t ( or I didn’t) want to be without something once I ran out. One point The surgery should improve is a before surgery list a good 2 wks maybe before - for example no booze, no medications really ( google it) and lots you can do like taking arnica pills and pineapple pills plus iron and such - maybe it’s not essential but I researched myself and why not do it if it might help? I was also glad I had some sweets with me as a little sugar helped in the following days. The tv doesn’t have any English programmes so take a book but be prepared to just had to recover without doing much else. I was up without hours of surgery walking the hall - it is a clean sort of pain - not like bone or hardcore I didn’t think but the worst area perhaps was the rib/muscle area a dr Ergin did a wonderful job of getting this entire area back to what it was by stitching the muscles back together I think. My technique was walk until I was bored and drink lots of water. If you’re having a tummy tuck you’ll need to master the roll and curl off the bed technique but just breath and don’t give in to the pain. It will be worth it if you hate your tummy how I hated mine. Lipo wise although it’s bloomin sore like you’ve been punched maybe, it wasn’t as bad as the ribcage pain or coping with drains for a few days. That was not fun - but again all needed so grin and bare it. I booked the Hilton Bomonti and having those sheets and just the smell and surroundings to go back to after the clinic was lovely. However watch out - my trip after surgery back to the hotel was 45 mins to wait for him and an hours drive as traffic was solid. No ones fault but what is a 15 mins drive can quickly be a nightmare. I called it Turkey time. No taxi except 2 came on time and waiting with drains and hardly able to sit ( bending in middle not fun early on) so be ready for that. But a good hostel and with national geographic on was such a luxury. But back to Istanbul Aesthetics Centre- they are talented and relaxed - it may feel a bit too relaxed but go with it. Dr Ergin Er is not only a clever man but adorable! Humorous and simply brilliant - I forced a hug on him the day I left ( when he removed my bandages and drains). Abdul meanwhile my translator but more over coordinator and medical advisor was always close to hand and simply never off duty. A role I don’t envy him of but one he excels at. Be prepared for the doctor to give you slightly different news when you arrive and he sees you - ( my scar u like my Hope was to be a good 12 inches despite not a massive tummy) but you need to enter into this knowing dr E will do what’s needed to get the shape and weight you are capable of having. The Istanbul Aesthetics Centre lack the pr that estetik Istanbul have mastered but don’t pause - these guys are honest and grounded and talented ....and although it may feel scary for me it’s the start of what honestly will be a better life. It’s still sinking in how different I feel about myself and I’ve not yet even tried on more fitting clothes or stopped too much ( as I was back to work within about 8 days post op) - I’m 2 or 3 wks post only but I am an hour glass with a size 12 figure and one I intend to work on hard once I can workout. Do note I couldn’t walk far a week post op - no lifting all that obvious stuff but being up is crucial for pain and swelling management in my view and so be ready to take it easy ( nightmare as work wanted me traveling all over ) so be ready to be mildly active but nothing major - even driving will take a while before you can slip behind the wheel. So prep is everything! Have some support. So don’t pause if you want to make a change and not procrastinate - Dr Ergin Er for me is precious - and perhaps he will see me again soon for a little more thigh sculpting. Don’t forget you can only do so much at once. Dr E won’t let you do anything unhealthy so no fear there but be clear with Abdul and be kind to the team - they have your best interests at heart. They are there to make us better so trust and let them. Thank you to all the team there and to the terrific nurses who I laughed with getting me in and out of the tight faja- god we sweated and laughed! Massive love from me and I think of you Abdul and dr e every single day when I look down at this flat tight stomach that has beautiful shape and even the definition of muscle and a dent down the middle. How? No idea how!? X

Overall everything is good. I didn’t like the fact that I had to wait a long time for the doctor during appointments. Also, the medical staff hardly speaks English. Only Turkish. Because of this, I could not sleep at night after the operation. Because they didn't understand what I was telling them about my problem. There is also absolute audibility at night between the corridor and the wards. Many thanks to Akilay (my coordinator). A very attentive and sensitive girl. I liked the hotel. Corresponds to the declared status and price. The staff is qualified. Overall the organization is good. Thanks everyone.

The operations take place in a government hospital. Nobody speaks English there. Communication is very difficult; if there are complications after surgery, then this is problematic. There is also very questionable medical training. Injections and tests are taken without gloves. They can't take an analysis. They pricked a vein, didn’t get it and left. We touched it with our own hands without gloves. They measure your blood pressure haphazardly or not at all, and then they write down what they made up and lie that they checked it all night. Immediately after the operation I had to call them and shout for them to come because the call button did not work. I had a lingering shock from all this. We had a girl translator with us who did not want to disconnect when I asked her. Although I speak English fluently and did not need her services. I didn’t want to undress in front of her and show my chest or belly. Therefore, the consultation was useless for me. As I became convinced later (when I had already undergone surgery), this company is very focused on earnings, and not on the client.

My personal experience. I live in Germany. I had a vital operation. Due to the high risks associated with age (85 years) in clinics in Germany, including paid ones, I was refused. I applied to Lithuania, Czech Republic, Russia. The result is the same. I found out about Bookimed by chance on the Internet. The Haiane Kompaniiets coordinator called me immediately. Finding clinics was not easy. Only 2 clinics in Europe agreed to a preliminary consultation, and the cost of the operation itself was off the charts. The coordinator did an incredible job in search and found a clinic in Turkey, in Bursa, at an affordable price. Then another coordinator, Ekaterina Chalysneva, was connected to me, who sent all the tests, doctors' opinions to the clinic, and agreed on the date of the operation. They met me at the airport, brilliantly performed the operation and escorted me back to the plane. Everything was done so smoothly and efficiently that I never cease to be surprised. The coordinators I have named are so caring people that they learned about the results of the operation and congratulated me on the success. I am grateful to them and will never forget. This is the merit of Bookimed, because such people work there. Advantages: There are so many of them that you cannot list them all. Disadvantages: they simply do not exist
