Berke Ozucer, MD

I’m a 57 year old woman from Texas and did extensive research on plastic surgeons in Texas, the U.S., and globally. I can’t emphasize enough how important it is that your surgeon has experience in deep plane facelifts as many plastic surgeons still practice SMAS facelifts, which won’t give you the 10-15 year lasting results that a deep plane facelift can provide. While the deep plane approach is more complex than SMAS, success depends on the surgeon’s experience, anatomical knowledge, and innate surgical ability. This is where Dr. Be+ excels and why I ultimately selected him. Dr. Be+ specializes in facial anatomy and what sets him apart from other plastic surgeons is that half of his practice is dedicated to facial paralysis and synkinesis. Deep plane surgeries involve significant manipulation and movement of muscles and the real risk of nerve damage. Dr. Be+’s practice is focused on repairing facial paralysis and nerve damage. This expertise provided me the confidence to travel to Istanbul to get my deep plane facelift with Dr. Be+. Besides feeling safe handing my face over to Dr. Be+, I could not be happier with my results! Dr. Be+ focuses on natural results that fit your facial anatomy. You can see my photos above that provide before surgery, 1 week after surgery, and 1 month after surgery my results. I have minimal scarring even though I have not started my scar treatments. I also had minimal pain and was able to tour Istanbul to make a vacation out of the trip just a few days after surgery. I enjoyed my experience from my first virtual consultation to my surgery in the most beautiful hospital I have ever seen (Memorial Göztepe Hastanesi), to my follow up appointments. Dr. Be+ is not only a wonderful surgeon, but he is a wonderful person. He cares about his patients and has the BEST bedside manner. His staff is also very accommodating and speak English. I am so happy with my overall experience, I plan to do a Youtube series detailing the surgery. I will include my research on doctors and range of costs and how I arrived at selecting Dr. Be+. Clearly, getting my procedures in Turkey cost less than what it costs in the U.S. But, even if I were gifted the procedures with the top deep plane doctors in the U.S., I would still choose Dr/ Be+ knowing what I know today.

am so happy to write this review. I never thought I would get a facelift. I never thought it was possible to look so natural after having one. I was wrong. I'm very happy with my results. From the time I had my consultation with Dr. Be, I knew he was perfect for me. All my worries went away. I had a million questions and he did not have to hesitate one bit to answer each and every one. He is extremely intelligent, very talented and obsessed with natural results. As you can see in my before and after photos, It looks 100% natural. Instead of being nervous flying from the US to Turkey for this procedure, I was extremely excited and not worried one bit. I just knew in my gut that this was going to be perfect. The staff at the clinic is very professional, knowledgeable and helpful. They were available for any questions I had at any time. They were able to arrange my ride from the airport and my hotel. Nurse Ibrahim was always accessible and the best resource I could ask for. People tell me all the time, they would never know I had a facelift if I didn't tell them. My "After" photo is only 8 months after my procedure. AMAZING! I'm so happy. I couldn't be happier.

Throughout my life, I've had over fifteen surgeries over several years, but I've never had an experience like my last surgery with the amazing Dr. Berke and his highly professional team. Today is my seventh day post-surgery, and I can't describe how easy and smooth it was. Everything was perfect and according to plan. My surgery was very complex, and the results are amazing and unexpected. I don't think words of thanks and praise will be enough. His wonderful team were very cooperative, and the doctor works wholeheartedly to help his patients, giving them ample time and being an excellent listener. May God bless Dr. Berke and his team. I recommend this great doctor to everyone. I was so lucky. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart.

Just six weeks after surgery and I am thrilled with my results! I would definitely recommend Dr. Berke. I’m 52 and finally got the courage to fly from Canada to Turkey for my facelift. I was so ready for a change. After smoking for years, my face showed it – deep marionette lines, wrinkles, and I just looked tired all the time. I spent countless hours researching surgeons all over the world - every review site, before and after photos, even AI comparison tools – I went down every rabbit hole I could because I had to be totally confident that I made the absolute best decision on my face. After all of that research and seeing photos of his deep plane facelift results, I knew that Dr. Berke was without a doubt, the absolute right choice. On October 1st, I went all in: deep plane facelift, neck lift, temporal lift, blepharoplasty (eyelid lift), and fat grafting to my cheeks. Yes, it sounds like a lot, but the transformation is truly impressive. I still look like me – just a better, younger version! The recovery was SO much easier than I expected. I thought I’d be cooped up in my hotel room for weeks, but even though I was bandaged up, I actually felt good enough to go out after just a few days. Now at six weeks, my scars are practically invisible. When I look in the mirror now, I definitely don’t see 52 anymore. It’s natural, it’s beautiful, and I’m just so happy. Dr. Berke’s skill level is absolutely top-tier! If you’re on the fence about traveling to Turkey for facial surgery, or if you’re researching deep plane facelift surgeons anywhere – Dr. Berke is worth considering. I have zero regrets whatsoever, and I would absolutely 100% recommend Dr. Berke to anyone considering a similar journey. I’ven already sent friends and family his way! Thank you, Dr. Berke, for the incredible work. This was hands-down the best decision I made for myself.

Im a 60 year old Irish lady who like so many people I began my search for a surgeon on Facebook. I fairly quickly discovered the importance the following 1. Internationally recognised facial surgery qualifications 2. Further training and development undertaken by the surgeon. Dr Berke had trained in both the U.K. and the USA and im sure other countries. 3. Facial only specialism 3. A deep sense of empathy with regards to the trust that people put in the surgeon 4. Excellent aftercare 5. An anthestic team who are also highly qualified and in attendance ( after all they keep you alive ) and who operate out of a fully equipped hospital. There are a lot of Turkish Surgeons mentioned frequently on Facebook and who appear on instagram with all singing and dancing social media . My advice - look beyond this . Look at the above criteria above and beyond . Dr Berke Ozucer meets them all. He’s a truly amazing surgeon and a lovely man. I’m now almost 2 weeks post surgery and I would not hesitate to recommend this doctor and his team to anyone . He listened attentively to my expectations and while making a few of his own suggestions never once tried to upsell additional procedures. I’ve still a good bit of healing to do but never once did I feel “ what have I done”. His expertise in facial nerve surgery makes him stand head and shoulders above other surgeons . Dr Berke and his team genuinely want to get things right for patients . After my surgery he spent a lot of time getting my feedback . There were a few wee things that could have been better . These were things more to do with the nursing care straight after surgery but issues which the Doctor and his team made clear they would work on . I’d also been offered a private nurse to check up on me over the weekend and I should have availed of this . However knowing I was travelling alone I also felt retrospectively that the doctors team should have pushed this more with me. Consider this carefully especially if you are travelling alone as you are a wee but more vulnerable for a day or 2 . I stayed in the Antwell Hotel - this is a medical hotel with an in-house nurse. I’d highly recommend staying here as they are so set up for guests who have just had surgery. Also because there are so many people there recovering from surgery you never feel self conscious . It’s only a short uber ride from both the doctors office and the hospital. Please don’t hesitate to use this doctor. He’s a truly skilled and professional surgeon

I travelled all the way from Sydney to Turkey for a deep plane face and neck lift with Dr Berke Özücer, and I’m beyond grateful for the care and expertise I received. From the very beginning, Dr Berke made me feel comfortable and supported. He answered all my questions during our consultation and continued to provide regular updates throughout the process. The service was seamless - from being picked up at the airport to being dropped off after my recovery. His team and the nurses were incredibly kind and attentive. The hospital was clean and very well maintained, and the entire experience felt professional, safe, and reassuring. The surgery itself was very successful - I experienced no pain or complications, and the results are incredibly natural. I’m absolutely thrilled with the outcome. Dr Berke’s post-operative care is also amazing. He continues to follow up with scheduled check-ins at 1 month, 3 months, and will even check-in 1 year after the procedure. His ongoing care and commitment are truly exceptional. I’m so glad I made the journey from Sydney - I couldn’t have asked for a better surgeon or team.

I would like to express my deepest gratitude to Dr. Berke Özücer and his team for their exceptional professionalism, kindness, and care throughout my synkinesis surgery. After years of discomfort and facial asymmetry, I finally feel free and confident again. The entire process, from consultation to recovery, was handled with such precision, empathy, and dedication. Dr. Özücer is not only a highly skilled surgeon but also a truly caring person who listens and understands his patients. I highly recommend him to anyone dealing with facial paralysis or synkinesis. Thank you so much for changing my life.

He might be the most amazing doctor I've ever met. He performed a triple nerve transfer for a second stroke after tumor surgery. His team is excellent. Accessibility and communication were important to me. They never let me down before or after the surgery. I'm grateful to you and your team in every way. The road is long, but my faith and trust are endless. I'm so glad our paths crossed, and I'm so glad you're here. :)

After a failed facelift surgery in the past, I was not only unhappy with the result but also had damage around my ear area. While looking for a doctor for revision surgery, I was very lucky to find Dr. Berke Özüçer. About a month ago I had my revision surgery, and I am extremely satisfied with the results. I now have a more aesthetic appearance and have experienced no complications. Dr. Berke is not only a highly skilled surgeon but also honest, caring, and truly passionate about his work. His team is just as professional. Throughout the pre- and post-operative process, communication was always fast and smooth. Their attentive follow-up system gave me great confidence. Special thanks to Nurse Ibrahim as well. Wonderful doctor, wonderful team — I definitely recommend!

I traveled from the United States to see Dr. Berke Özücer for a rhinoplasty, and with only two weeks’ notice, his team went above and beyond to make it happen. They were knowledgeable, friendly, and extremely responsive, and they made me feel completely at ease throughout the entire process. During my consultation, I immediately felt confident in my decision. Dr. Özücer was honest, straightforward, and only recommended what was truly needed. He suggested not only a rhinoplasty but also a fat injection to my chin, which turned out to be an excellent addition. It was clear from the start that he cares deeply about quality results and his patients’ well-being, not just about doing procedures. Now, post-surgery, I couldn’t be happier with the outcome. The results look natural and amazing, and for the first time in years, I can finally breathe properly after struggling with nasal trauma. I am truly thankful to Dr. Özücer and his team, and I would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone considering surgery.
