Excellent Surgeon
Excellent Surgeon. My designated coordinator Berfin was also very helpful and professional.
DO NOT BOOK HERE
DO NOT BOOK HERE! Unethical and unprofessional! Flew all the way out from Seattle to get gynecomastia surgery. I filled out medical forms beforehand and I was told I was good to go. On the day of the surgery, the doctor tells me Yavuz (patient coordinator) tells me that they didn’t know I was taking medications that would affect the surgery when I had the forms filled out before I flew out there. They highly recommended I didn’t go through with the surgery because of a 80-90% chance of getting a hematoma. I ended up not going through with the surgery and asked about getting my deposit back. They both said that my initial consultant Azra would get back to me. The entire clinic ghosted me after I left and I never received my deposit. I tried to dispute the transaction and they responded by saying there’s no cancellation but they weren’t professional enough to read my medical forms and saying everything is good before flying over to Turkey.

Rhinoplasty with Dr. Kadri Ila
I have had 1 week ago a rhinoplasty done by Dr. Kadri Ila. It was a great experience - he is very nice and competent doctor. The result is very good and I am happy with it. All the nurses and staff were very nice and helpful. Even if not everyone speaks English they try their best and find a way to communicate with you and to support you. They took good care of you in the hospital. As well it was clean and modern. The hotel were we have stayed was as well good - the staff was nice and the room were clean. Overall the communication and information flow was good. Yasemin (who is the patient representative) is very friendly and helpful - she helped whenever it was needed.Overall it was a great experience and I would recommend it.
My experience was near perfect
My experience was near perfect, Berfin and Onur are remarkable, and my Surgeon was top notch, Dr. Mert Sizmaz, the only reason I didn’t give a 5 star, was bc of the nurses post-op, my IV was infiltrated, and the language barrier made this difficult, they seemed to be more like CNAs as far as knowledge, I think training for nurses is vastly different than USA, as they were very young too, and they couldn’t tell just by seeing how swollen my arm was, they kept insisting IV was fine, and I’m a RN, so I took IV out, so I wouldn’t end up with an infection, and so I could actually get the meds being infused IV, and bc the pain was pretty bad, but as soon as I texted Berfin, this was resolved as well
Rhinoplasty (19 mnths on)
Ever wanted to know the results from this surgery long term? Well here goes. Surgeon's here are doing way too many surgery’s per day. I was scheduled for 2pm but had surgery around 7pm. I had not eaten or drank for almost 24 hours and was so dehydrated I was put on a drip. The surgeon told me I had thin skin , then he told me I had thick skin, when I had the splints removed after a few days (to soon in my opinion) the surgeon was not even prepared and couldn’t tell me what he had even done! I left and quickly got an infection back home meaning I had to embarrassingly explain to the UK doctors what I had done and needed a lot of antibiotics to clear it up. How’s things now? The scaring inside my nose is horrendous, it’s hard and lumpy and visible externally. My breathing and smell is worse and my nose is swollen EVERY morning without fail. My nose constantly runs, in the cold, in the sun, it just keeps running and you can’t control it without blowing your nose so it looks like I have a 24/7 cold. The side profile is dented which I have just come to accept but what gets me is the pain, it’s constant and I honestly don’t know what I’m going to do as I cannot bear to have any more surgery. I wrote vanity a letter back last year and they wrote back a well written, English letter telling me how customer service is so important to them and they would do everything they could to make sure I was satisfied and guess what happened- absolutely nothing. Please don’t be fooled by this company’s flashy marketing and influencer recommendations. People shouldn’t even be allowed to write reviews until at least 6 mnths later. If this just puts one sensible person off this place and probably any place in Turkey then my job here is done. There were so many red flags and I ignored them all. Do better!
Mummy Makeover and feeling good ☺️
I've had my mummy makeover surgery 4months ago and I'm happy with my results. I'm a 52yo female and chose to have surgery in Istanbul because I like their surgery style for voluptuous woman as I was 93kgs I'm now 87kgs and love my curvey figure. The only negatives are that there is a language barrier but most of the health staff know some English and it is to be expected of course I'm in a non English speaking country. I had a major operation so I should have brought a support person along they help with small things for you. The nurses can get quite busy and can't always be at you beck and call which they shouldn't be anyway that's not their job. The only issues I had were my sutures were supposed to be disolveable but I think I had some nylons as some of my suture sights became infected and I had to manually remove my sutures. After that I healed nicely, I was on antibiotics post also and this very important in the healing process. The nurses couldn't tell me what pain medication I was on. They would just reply pain killer but I wanted to know what type of analgesic they were giving me. I understand the language barriers so I just trusted everyone, I will come back again. Could you tell your staff to not smoke in the stairwell or maybe it was coming from outside because I could smell cigarette smoke coming into my room which made me feel a bit off. Besides that I will come back to Vanity again as I was looked after well by my care coordinator, driving staff, nurses and surgeon. Thank you
Breast augmentation
Breast augmentation. The surgery it's self was fine how ever as a company the service is incredibly disappointing, logistics unreliable and communication and patient care questionable. At the airport the transfer was not there, late at night and contact difficult . The schedule very last minute and time keeping shocking. I have had my teeth done in Turkey with a different company ans the care was lightyears ahead which was why I choose Turkey. On the day of the surgery I was brought to the clinic, no one actually introduced themselves . Co-ordinator was a nice man but pre-occupied and very impersonable. I'm quite independent but I was popped into a lift in a gown and told the floor to go to but there wasn't anyone there ... wandering around looking . The nurses are lovely just wonderful and the Doctor kind but until just before the surgery no one actually asked me how big I wanted or what I wanted to achieve- it was rushed and I feel it was decided in doctors head - I don't think they are big enough. Since being home I have sent some queries about wound care and concerns about swelling but not had an actual response. Now for my follow up call it's 45 mins after the time and still no call. The support it not there in the event of complication - lucky so far I have not had any. Pity I had such faith in Turkish care. Possibly my recovery will be fine but I couldn't recommend Vanity.
Thanks for everything!
I've had a great experience in Vanity Cosmetics. I've had a rhinoplasty and I am more than grateful by my doctor Anıl Bey, nurses and staff for the care and treatment pre and after my surgery, especially Yasemin nurse. Thank you for everything and I absolutely recommend getting a work done here.
Hallöchen!
Hallöchen! Vor 1 Woche hatte ich Bruststraffung, Bauchstraffung mit inkl. Fettabsaugung auch am Rücken bekommen. Ich war schon am 4 Tag nach OP mit dem Ergebnis zufrieden. Dr. Erman hat sehr gute Arbeit geleistet. Von Anfang bis zum Schluss wurde ich ausreichend beraten und betreut.
