Australians combine orthognathic surgery with other facial procedures in Turkey?","answer":"Australians can combine orthognathic surgery with some facial procedures in Turkey, but it’s rarely advised due to risks. Combining jaw surgery with rhinoplasty or chin surgery is possible but requires careful planning and extended follow-up. Most surgeons recommend focusing on one major surgery per trip to aid recovery and safety.
\nBookimed Expert Insight: Despite options to combine surgeries, Turkish specialists like Dr Furkan Karabekmez recommend single-procedure trips for safety. Some clinics include 3D facial scans for tailored planning, which is vital to avoid complications in combined treatments.
\nPatient Consensus: Patients from Australia stress that jaw surgery needs many visits before and after surgery. They find the long follow-up tricky and prefer one procedure per trip to manage recovery better in Turkey’s clinics.

Speech usually improves gradually over weeks, with significant progress after the first few days and possible subtle improvements continuing up to 12 months.
\nBookimed Expert Insight: Dentavie's packages often include airport transfers and translation services, easing communication barriers during limited speech recovery. University-trained surgeons like Dr Abdulsamet Kundakcioglu use advanced techniques, helping improve outcomes despite initial speech impairment.
\nPatient Consensus: Australians report speech sounds are muffled the first week, with small improvements by day 4. Clearer speech takes months, so patience and support are vital while recovering in Turkey.

\nBookimed Expert Insight: Clinics in Istanbul such as Dentavie Istanbul Dental Clinic combine maxillofacial surgery techniques with free transfer and translation services, easing the journey for Australians. Surgeons like Dr Abdulsamet Kundakcioglu bring global expertise, including training at the Royal College of London, ensuring high-quality care. Selecting clinics with patient coordinators and detailed presurgical consultations can make recovery smoother and safer.
\nPatient Consensus: Patients praise Turkish clinics for thorough consultations and clear communication during surgery planning. Many appreciate included airport transfers and translation services, which make the process less stressful. The recommended 30-day stay in Turkey allows full recovery and avoids complications from early flying home.

On the Mediterranean coast, it starts in April and lasts until November. In the resorts of the Aegean Sea — from May to October. The most comfortable time for swimming is from mid-June to the end of October. A large influx of tourists is in July-August, when the air temperature is +38°C, and the water warms up to +27°C.

The Turkish authorities are convinced that care for the citizens' health should be an absolute priority of state policy and spend about 77 billion liras for healthcare annually.
As a result, 28,000 medical facilities provide excellent medical care in the country. About 50 centers have certificate of JCI (Joint Commission International), the international improver of healthcare quality and safety across the globe. The index of certificates obtained is the largest. To compare, Israel has 20 JCI-accredited facilities, and Germany — only 10 clinics of this type.
