A highly professional and kind doctor who made me feel completely at ease throughout my eyelid surgery. I'm very happy with the results and would confidently recommend her to anyone. I had an eyelid surgery with her and couldn’t be more pleased with the entire experience. She is professional, caring, and truly made me feel safe and comfortable. The results are amazing.
Dr Ilke Simsek is a first class surgeon and a delightful person. Throughout my entire process she was easy to communicate with directly, always helpful and informative, always cheerful and reassuring. She is highly qualified and experienced, regularly engaged with her profession both in Turkey and Internationally, and still finds time to provide high quality personal attention. I am very happy to provide this review based upon my own personal experience.
I had an upper blepharoplasty surgery last month. Dr. ?lke Bahçeci ?im?ek is a great doctor. I am really happy with the results. The surgery went very well. I have beautiful eyes now:)) She is really good at performing these operations.

Highly experienced Dr who specialises in the eye area. I had a lower eyelid retraction (ear graft) on both eyes. It’s been approximately 6 weeks post op and results are looking great. Dr has been in contact with me a few times to ask about the progress of healing and if I have any concerns. Dr is very friendly and humble and always available if you have any questions. I would highly recommend Dr Ilke Bahceci Simsek as she is highly experienced Oculoplastic Surgeon.
Prof Dr Ilke Bahceci Simsek and I have no words to describe how good professional is she. She is wonderful, very pleasant and with a lot of experience , an excellent professional. So I book my surgery with her on 31 January 2025. Prof. Dr. Ilke provided her assistant, Mr. Altu?, who is a very friendly and helpful person to pick me up at the hotel, take me to the hospital, do the translation and accompany me in all the routine before the surgery. The surgical team was highly professional, very positive, they were very kind to me, I felt completely safe. She did an excellent job on my eye and I am very happy. I truly recommend Prof. Dr. Ilke to anyone who wants to have any type of eye surgery.
For years I have been thinking to have this surgery and finally last month I had blepharoplasty surgery. Dr Ilke Bahceci Simsek did my surgery and I couldn’t be happier with the results. I had already good references about her and when I met her, her professional and friendly approach convinced me to do it. I was a bit anxious at the beginning but she calmed me with her polite and warm attitude. The surgery went very well and with her follow up and care, using the recommended medical creams I had a smooth recovery. During and after the surgery I had no pain or discomfort. I highly recommend her without any reservations. She is an amazing surgeon and a very friendly person. If you are thinking to have this kind of surgery, look no further, you will not regret it.
I feel very lucky to have met Dr. ?lke during my eyelid surgery process. From the very first consultation, she determined to find the most suitable treatment for me and guided me toward the necessary procedure. Achieving a natural result was very important to me, and Dr. ?lke did an amazing job, keeping this in mind. Throughout the surgery process, she was highly attentive at every stage, and I could easily reach her whenever I had a question. Thanks to her care for her patients, warm smile, and pleasant conversation, I felt very comfortable. I am incredibly happy with the result—everything turned out just as I had imagined! I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone considering eyelid surgery.
I should have done It earlier. Thank you! I am from Switzerland. I was looking for a professional doctor. So I had a blepharoplasty in Swiss. But It was not worth It. My suggestion for anyone: Blepharoplasty or any other eyesurgery: please go to an eyespecialist. I decided to have another surgery in turkey. Not because of the cost, because of the specialized treatment of experts. During my research, unfortunately there were a lot of doctors, who suggested different surgeries at once, so that my look will look better. They didn't care really what I wanted. After a while I found dr. Ilke. She was super easy with finding appointment, contacting her, asking several questions. She is so simple and uncomplicated. All the questions were answered personally by her. I could take my time, think about the options. She took time to facetime me. She really wanted to understand me too. I was absolutely surprised, how exact she was. Also she made sure, that me and my husband will be picked up from the hotel to the clinique. She organised an personal assistent of her, to guide us through the day. I've never imagined, how important It is, to have someone like that. He exactly knew what the process was, and also was a VERY responsible men. It was super easy for us with him. THANK YOU SO MUCH. Even after the surgery dr. Ilke took time to talk to me. After a week the stiches came out. The results ar INCREDIBLE. Unfortunately I want to stay anonym (sorry for that.....) but everything went perfect: no sideeffects, no pain. Day by day It is getting better... Even after leaving Turkey, I am still in contact with her. She asks me how I am feeling. So you are not alone, you can contact her anytime for medical questions. I really want to say, I've never met a doctor like her. I am from Swiss and did decide to do It out of my country. It's quite rare to find an eyespecialist with knowledge of aesthetics. And this worldwide. I don't speak turkish. But Dr. Ilke made me feel safe, she is very understanding, down to earth, takes her time for you. And she is a expert in her field. So for everyone who is thinking about a eyesurgery: I recommend dr. Ilke. There are so many other doctors, who are doing It for money, recommending more and more surgeries.. don't get blind... With her, I didn't had the feeling: Her treatments are so individuell. She analyses your eyes, eyeshape etc.. so It was very personal. As I said, unfortunately I can't show my picture.. (sorry again for that.. because the results are just WOW)! I would recommend her to everyone. She is as a doctor an expert and as human very loving. Thank you dr. Ilke! I am glad, that I know where I have to go, If I need a great eyedoctor and surgeon! I wish this great experience for everyone.
My experience: Hello everyone! I’m sure you’re all doing your best to research and find a doctor who will meet your expectations. I can say with full confidence that Dr. Ilke Bahceci not only met mine but exceeded them. I am absolutely thrilled with my results and the entire experience. I was initially very nervous about having surgery, but from the moment I connected with Dr. Ilke Bahceci, I felt an immense sense of relief. We stayed in constant communication throughout the process, and I could immediately tell she is passionate about her work and exceptionally skilled at it. The surgery was done without general anesthesia, and I felt no pain at all. The recovery process was very smooth for me—although healing varies from person to person, I experienced minimal swelling and my recovery has been progressing wonderfully. I am deeply grateful to my incredible doctor and so happy our paths crossed. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking eyelid surgery. Deneyimim: Herkese merhaba! Eminim hepiniz, beklentilerinizi kar??layacak iyi bir doktor ara?t?rmak için elinizden gelenin en iyisini yap?yorsunuz. Dr. ?lke Bahçeci’nin benim beklentilerimi kar??lamakla kalmay?p, çok daha fazlas?n? sundu?unu gönül rahatl???yla söyleyebilirim. Sonuçlar?mdan ve tüm deneyimden son derece memnunum. Ba?lang?çta cerrahi i?lem konusunda çok korkuyordum ama Dr. ?lke Bahçeci ile ileti?ime geçtikten hemen sonra kendimi çok daha iyi hissettim. Süreç boyunca sürekli ileti?imde kald?k ve hemen anlad?m ki i?ini çok seviyor ve bu konuda son derece yetenekli. Ameliyat s?ras?nda uyutulmad?m ve hiç a?r? hissetmedim. Ameliyat sonras? iyile?me süreci çok sorunsuz geçti—tabii ki her bireyin iyile?me süreci farkl?d?r ama ben çok az ?i?lik ya?ad?m ve iyile?me sürecim çok güzel ilerliyor. Harika doktoruma son derece minnettar?m ve yollar?m?z?n kesi?mesinden çok mutluyum. Göz kapa?? ameliyat? dü?ünen herkese kesinlikle tavsiye ederim.
About that lower crease, yes it will go after some time. This is because of big cheek :) and the nose.
Hi, making a small dose of botox injection for the lower eyelid muscle can be the solution. When you smile your muscles contracts, but after botox the muscles can't contract so much. This will make your eyes larger when smiling.
After one month you can understand the ptosis surgery results. Bu it depends on the tecnique and how much edema you had after the surgery. sometimes we wait 1 week, sometimes we wait 3 months after the ptosis operation.
Actually it is up to you to have a revision. But making that revision does not have too much risk. You can have it done :)
Hi, there is a scar on your right eyelid scin crease. Also you have upper eyelid retraction, you can make massage for this. after 3-4 weeks you may need a revision.
