Dr Hayati is one of the most amazing Dr I have ever met, especially in the world of plastic surgery. Not only he is incredible gifted and has a great eye for beauty but he is also extremely patient and caring and attentive to his patients. I chose him because I believed that he could help me reverse the clock a bit and I could enjoy looking at my reflection in the mirror again and recognize myself in photos, while looking like my old self and natural. I am thrilled with the results and the care I received. So grateful to him and the entire wonderful staff at the clinic. All the nurses are kind and attentive and professional. I never felt unattended to. The patients coordinators Momen and Maryam were so helpful. Momen is incredibly attentive and kind and excellent at his job. He was always willing to help and quick to respond and went above and beyond. Outstanding experience, so happy I chose Dr Hayati and his team! They are family now.
My experience with my surgery was amazing from start to end. The staff was friendly and very professional. I would recommend Dr. Hayati for any plastic surgery procedures. Thank for everything! I love the results and still recovering.
Dear Dr. Hayati, I want to thank you for the beautiful and successful surgery, precise work, you smeared the sperm and made them disappear like a magician. I praise the employees at the clinic, their responsibility, dedication, listening, the feeling that I am at home in safe hands. I appreciate and respect the entire team and you as a doctor and a person. The world of medicine and humanity has something to learn from you. With full appreciation, Romi Hacham
Dr Hayati and his team are truly amazing . I had deep plane facelift in may 2023. From the very first contact with the patient coordinator, Momin the journey was fantastic. The hospital is owned by Dr hayati and the nurses and staff are truly outstanding. The doctor listens to your expectations and advises and helps guide you to truly wonderful results. He has been practising for over 30 years and is highly experienced in the field of plastic. Surgery. Especially facelifts . My journey was painless and the care I received was second to none, nothing was too much trouble, Momin is an absolute god send and was there at any hour to answer questions and queries , the doctor came to see me twice a day after surgery and my wounds were cleaned and dressed every single day. I spent 5 nights in the hospital and then 9 nights in a beautiful suite with its own kitchen, bedroom. Bathroom and living area. I would not hesitate for one second to go back to dr Hayati for any other work: he is truly a miracle doctor along with all of his team from start to finish, nothing is too much trouble for the doctor , Momin and all the nurses and staff
The best doctor I could’ve asked for. Great teamwork and loving environment at the clinic, creating beautiful memories and making me feels at home. Such a blessing to get to know the lovely people at the clinic, making new friends, walking at the beach, having turkish meals every single day and learning a bit of turkish language. Couldn’t wait to be back

I thank God for meeting you and your city. I will always have something very warm and poignant to the core about this trip of mine in my heart.

I live in Los Angeles, where there are plenty of plastic surgeons, specially in the area where I worked. I am 54, I have been having botox, fillers and even threads for many years, but at some point all of these treatments cannot give you the results you want. I began to contemplate the idea of having a facelift but when I looked in the area where I lived it was so expensive that I couldn't afford it. I found Realself and I began my search I spent many months educating myself about the types of facelifts and results. When I found Dr. Hayati I got immediately impressed with the results. I contacted his team and right away I got an answer from Momen, who is part of the team and communicates with international patients, he asked me for a few pictures to show the doctor so he could give me his opinion of what I needed and the cost of all the procedures, in less than 24 hours I got the response, and I found myself saying yes, so easy, so professional and I got very excited. I made my appointment at the end of January I sent the payment for the deposit and by March 2nd, I was flying to Turkey. From the moment I left Los Angeles and landed in Samsun I was in contact with Momen, when I arrived to Samsun there was a driver waiting for me, not to mention that it was 1 in the morning and my flight had been delayed, he drove me to the hotel where I spent my recuperation time after the hospital. Beautiful small hotel a block from the beach and it looked like a small apartment with a balcony, kitchen and living room. I used to call it home. I had my blood test and all the tests I needed that Saturday and I met Dr. Hayati at the clinic. As soon as I met him all my worries went away, he is so knowledgeable and with all his experience he can answer any question you have. He didn't rush me and I completely trusted him. He is very humble and very friendly and you can see how much he loves his job. Monday I met with the anesthesiologist and the doctor who would be helping dr. Hayati. I couldn't believe the time they spent with me explaining the test results and the procedures for the surgery, no rush at all. Tuesday I got picked up at 8.30 in the morning from my hotel and I arrived to the clinic. I moved in to the room and then it went to the operation room, where there were several nurses, the anesthesiologist, dr. Hayati's Assistant and few minutes later Dr. Hayati arrived. I just remember him smiling at me and saying let's get you back to your 20's. I had a deep plane facelift with an eyebrow lift, fat transfer and a neck lift. I woke up in my room with no pain and Momen was there, I had nurses 24 hours taking care of me, special food like a 5 star hotel. Dr. Hayati would come twice a day and at night there was always a doctor coming to visit you and checking on you. Amazing experience. After a few days I was back to my hotel, for the rest of my stay. Every day I was picked up by the driver and I was being seen by the doctor, at the end of my stay I got the documentation to show at the airport I got picked up from my hotel and driven to the airport. Now, the reality is that you have to be mentally prepare for this. It is a shocked when you see yourself after surgery, you don't recognize yourself and of course the recovery feels long, but you just have to trust the process and be patient. It is not pretty and you will have a lot of emotions going on, but believe me when I say, it is all worth it when you see the results. I wouldn't change a thing. I look like in my 20s, even my daughters couldn't believe it when they saw me after my trip, I didn't facetime or sent pictures during my stay in Turkey, because I wanted an honest reaction. Now, I don't care about my age, I love what I see in the mirror and how it makes me feel. It has been 3 months and the results are getting better and better. Believe me when I say Dr. Hayati is better than any doctor in Beverly Hills from someone who has worked in Beverly Hills for more than 10 years. Don't let the location fool you. If you want more information of you want to see pictures I can share them with you privately if you message me. Dr. Hayati is the best!
I am very happy with Dr Hayati's amazing work, the results are getting better by the day. I will post more photos moving forward. His team and interpreter, Momin, go above and beyond with their assistance. I loved the city of Samsun, it is a perfect place to recover and is very relaxing by the sea. I would highly recommend Dr Hayati, he is excellent in his work but also a very genuine and sincere person who only wants the best for his patients. I would go back to get anything else I needed done.
Even though external incisions may heal relatively quickly, the deeper internal sutures and scar tissue take longer to strengthen and stabilize...After a face or neck lift, internal sutures hold together deeper tissues as they heal. These sutures typically take several weeks to a few months to fully integrate into the healing tissue and develop strength.After a face or neck lift, the use of shampoo itself typically doesn't directly affect the incision or scar line as long as the product is gentle and free from harsh chemicalAlways check with your surgeon about the best timeline for you based on the extent of your procedure and how you're healing individually. They may recommend personalized restrictions based on your progress.By waiting the appropriate amount of time, you reduce the risk of pulling on your incisions or internal sutures and help ensure optimal healing results.
Preparing your skin in advance is a great idea, as it can enhance your results and potentially aid in recovery.To get your skin in its best shape, consider treatments like PRP or gentle peels—just be sure to stop any major treatments 3-4 weeks before your surgery. This way, your skin will be stable and ready, minimizing risks.If you’ll be in a hotel post-op, having someone with you can make a big difference, especially for comfort during the initial recovery period.
Some doctors suggest that midface lifts and temporal/brow lifts may only provide short-term results, but this largely depends on individual factors and post-surgical care. In my experience, these procedures can last for a significant period when combined with proper aftercare, such as non-surgical treatments and PRP plasma injections, which help maintain and prolong the results. For most of my patients, if they are good candidates, I recommend the Deep Plane facelift. This technique tends to provide more natural and longer-lasting results compared to traditional methods.
Thank you for sharing your concerns. It's understandable that any changes in your appearance, especially around the eyes, can be unsettling. There are a few potential reasons why one eye might appear smaller over time. These could include the natural aging process, the effects of rubbing or pressure on the eye, or even subtle differences in muscle tone or skin elasticity. Since this is something that's bothering you, I would recommend a thorough evaluation to determine the cause. This will allow us to explore possible solutions and address your concerns effectively.
