Gürhan Özcan

I am very pleased I went through Bookimed to book my necklift surgery. Confidence, my assigned medical co-ordinator was excellent. She answered every question I had and I had lots of them. She did her best to make sure all my needs were met. Dr. Gürhan Özcan is truly a professor and I was lucky I got him to perform my surgery. Along with his expertise, he is also kind and very caring. I even asked him on the spur of the moment to do a temporal brow lift together with the necklift. I will be forever grateful that he did, as I am 100% happy with the results. I highyly recommend this clinic.

The transfer from the airport was poorly organised. For someone travelling like this for the first time, it's stressful. Apart from that, everything was fine. I can recommend the clinic. The doctor is a very good specialist and a friendly person.

Honestly, the best experience ever. I was so scared and skeptic about have a rhinoplasty in Turkey but Bookimed staff was beyond helpful 24/7 and the Istanbul Aestethic Center was the cleanest, best clinique. Doctor Gurhan saved my nose, an expert. He spoke very calm, explained me everything in English, asured me everything will be alright and i couldn t be more thankful for him and the entire clinique stuff. I 200% recommend this clinique and this doctor. Truly kind people. Thank you again!

It is with great disappointment that I write this follow-up, nearly five months after what initially felt like a life-changing experience with Prof. Dr. Gurhan Ozcan and his team at Istanbul Aesthetic Center. As I previously shared, I was deeply impressed by the professionalism, warmth, and care I received from Dr. Ozcan, my medical coordinator Ege, and the clinic staff. The facility was state-of-the-art, and the process—from consultation to post-op—was smooth and reassuring. I underwent rhinoplasty on January 7th to correct a deviated septum, reduce nasal projection, and refine a bulbous tip. Initially, everything seemed to go well. However, as time passed, the reality began to set in. Now, at nearly the 5-month mark, when swelling and bruising have subsided—as expected—I am left with a visible and palpable bony bump at the root of the nasal pyramid, a deformity that did not exist prior to surgery. This is not residual swelling. It is clearly bone. Its presence is not only physically noticeable but emotionally distressing. My nose remains somewhat numb, particularly on the right side and at the tip. While some numbness can be typical during healing, the sensation hasn’t significantly improved in weeks, suggesting this may be a longer-term issue. The septum appears straighter, the overall projection was moderately reduced, and the bulbous tip was very slightly improved. But the new bony irregularity—right at the base of my nasal bridge—undermines the entire purpose of having undergone this procedure in the first place. I feel like I’ve exchanged one issue for another—arguably more visible—one. This has left me feeling disheartened, frustrated, and anxious. I followed all aftercare instructions meticulously, trusted the process, and waited patiently. I was hopeful, but now I feel disillusioned. I share this not out of anger, but out of the need for transparency—for myself, for others considering this clinic, and in the hope that my case is reviewed with the seriousness it warrants. A rhinoplasty should not introduce a new deformity where none existed before. I still have respect for Dr. Ozcan’s credentials and the team’s dedication. But results are what matter in the end—and in my case, the outcome has been deeply disappointing.

I would highly recommend this centre. Ege was a fantastic representative of Istanbul aesthetics and was hand with an empathetic ear and also helpful in all aspects of our stay for the week. A credit to the centre!!! Professor Gurhan Ozcan was an excellent surgeon, very informative and an expert at his craft. I took my daughter here and I was extremely anxious leading up to it but I can assure you, this is a great aesthetics centre. Thank you all for taking care of my daughter
