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.

All the nursing staff were incredibly kind and took loving and attentive care of me; I felt well looked after and thoroughly taken care of at all times
My biggest concern before the trip was whether I would be satisfied with the result and feel well cared for abroad. These worries were unfounded. I am very satisfied with the entire stay. Dr. Murat Yaman did an excellent job – quick, professional, friendly, and with a great outcome. I don't know which technique was used or how much my nipple was repositioned, but so far, I feel better than expected. The hospital is very modern and clean. All the nursing staff were incredibly kind and took loving and attentive care of me; I felt well looked after and thoroughly taken care of at all times. There were no additional costs, and the clinic remained in contact with me after the procedure. Many thanks to Dr. Murat Yaman and the entire team.

I honestly cannot thank Dr Murat Yaman enough for the care, kindness, and professionalism he showed me throughout my breast surgery journey
I honestly cannot thank Dr Murat Yaman enough for the care, kindness, and professionalism he showed me throughout my breast surgery journey. I travelled from the UK to have a breast lift with implants ( 450 cc motiva implants under the muscle ), and from the very beginning, Dr Yaman made me feel comfortable, reassured, and confident that I was in safe hands. I am so happy with my results so far and I am truly grateful for his skill, attention to detail, and the beautiful work he has done. Not only is Dr Yaman an incredibly talented surgeon, but he is also a genuinely kind and caring person who made me feel looked after while I was away from home. I also want to say a huge thank you to all the staff who cared for me after my breast lift and implant surgery. Every member of the team was amazing, patient, and supportive throughout my recovery, and their kindness meant so much to me, especially during the early days after such a big procedure. Having surgery abroad was a big decision, and I had many emotions going into it, but I always felt that I was being cared for post surgery. I truly appreciate the hospitality, compassion, and dedication shown by Dr Yaman. I would happily recommend Dr Murat Yaman to anyone considering breast surgery. I am extremely pleased with my experience and my results so far, and I am already planning to return next year for another procedure because of the trust and confidence I have in him and his team. Thank you again for everything — I truly appreciate you all. ❤️
What I liked most about my experience with Dr Murat Yaman and his team was how cared for and comfortable I felt throughout my breast surgery journey. From my consultation, I felt listened to and reassured, and Dr Yaman took the time to understand the results I wanted from my breast lift and implants. I really appreciated his professionalism, kindness, and attention to detail. He made me feel confident in my decision and I felt that I was in safe hands throughout the process. The aftercare and support from the staff were also amazing. Everyone who looked after me after surgery was caring, patient, and supportive, which made such a difference while recovering away from home. Overall, what I liked most was the combination of Dr Yaman’s skill, his caring approach, and the genuine hospitality shown by the whole team. I am very happy with my experience and my results so far.

For anyone researching this, my main piece of advice is to find a doctor you can truly trust; this was the most critical factor for me and made all the difference
My confidence in the process was solidified during the consultation. The surgeon clearly detailed how a closed rhinoplasty would be performed, focusing on a functional correction for my septum to improve my breathing. I am still in early recovery now. Everything is going according to the plan we discussed. For anyone researching this, my main piece of advice is to find a doctor you can truly trust; this was the most critical factor for me and made all the difference.

With up to 300g removed from each breast, this has been life-changing
What I particularly appreciated was how honest Dr. Murat Yaman was, giving me realistic expectations rather than making unrealistic promises. He was meticulous, carefully measuring and explaining scar placement before surgery. The nursing staff was incredibly kind and professional, and the immaculate, private hospital room made everything more comfortable. My coordinator ensured the entire process was seamless. I feel better than expected. With up to 300g removed from each breast, this has been life-changing. There was a minimal charge for take-home medication, and the team has stayed in touch. My advice: pack loose tops and bring your own entertainment for the downtime.
Dr. Murat Yaman was absolutely fantastic and definitely lives up to his 5-star rating. From the moment I met him through to my final checks, he was extremely thorough, professional and reassuring. What I particularly appreciated was how honest he was throughout the process and how he always gave me realistic expectations rather than making unrealistic promises. I am extremely happy with the results, this has totally changed my life - this man has magic hands! The nurses were also amazing. From the moment I arrived, they were constantly checking in on me and making sure I was comfortable and had everything I needed. They were incredibly kind, attentive and professional throughout my stay. The level of care was honestly miles apart from what I’ve experienced back home in the UK. The hospital itself was immaculate. At times, it genuinely felt more like I was staying in a hotel than a hospital. My room was lovely, spotlessly clean and private, which made the whole experience much more comfortable and relaxing. My coordinator and translator was also brilliant and made the entire process completely flawless from start to finish. From the private transfers and arrival to my initial meeting with the surgeon to go through the surgery, everything was organised so smoothly. Having someone there to guide me, translate everything clearly and make sure I understood what was happening made such a difference. I genuinely felt like I was in very safe hands throughout the whole experience, and I can’t thank him enough. Overall, I couldn’t fault the care I received. From the surgeon and nursing staff to the hospital facilities, everything exceeded my expectations. I would definitely recommend Dr. Murat Yaman and his team to anyone considering surgery in Istanbul.
