I'm getting a nose job in Turkey. What credentials should I be looking for in a surgeon?

Thank you for your Question. I would advice you to have look at the before and after photos and also the Reviews on the doctor. and have an online consultation with the Surgeon or the Doctors ASSİSTANT.

There are certainly excellent plastic surgeons in Turkey. However I don’t know how you would go about figuring that out including what proper credential if involves. There are plenty of excellent surgeons in Florida and it will be far simpler to just have the surgery there.

Dear Marieb41,
finding the right Dr. is extremely challenging especially with the number of online platforms and resources available. There a lot of great Dr's available. Make sure he/she is a board-certified plastic surgeon. Definitely check to make sure your choice specializes in the procedure you want and spend the time to read through patient testimonials. There is a number of different sites where you can check for reviews (Realself, yelp, google, etc.).You can always pick up the phone and call around also, find an office you feel comfortable with and set up a few consultations.

In my opinion, the most dependable and reliable credentials are possessed by American Board Certified Plastic Surgeons who specialize in Rhinoplasty both Primary and Revision . There are only a limited number of these qualified individuals in the World- most of them are in the US. I suggest that you seek an experienced Board Certified PS in the US -preferably specializes in closed technique. Safety and a good result are worth the investment

Greetings;
Rhinoplasty surgeries can be performed in many countries of the world. In the internet age we are in, it has been possible to achieve high scientific standards in many different cities by sharing informations. This surgery is performed by Otolaryngology (ENT) and Plastic Surgery specialists with similar methods. It is one of the cities in Istanbul where these surgeries are performed most intensively. Moreover, in addition to the fact that Istanbul has a very high hospital quality and team experiences, it continues to attract many people to this city for health tourism with a price advantage. If a surgeon is considering having surgery to surgeons in Turkey about the Turkish or European or American board certifications. Moreover, you can inquire the Republic of Turkey work permits. In addition to the posts on social media, I suggest you to question the surgeon's experiences in international scientific literature. In addition to all these, the experience of the relevant surgeon, the experience of his team and the quality of the hospital where the surgery will be performed are other important criteria in terms of the result that the surgery will satisfy you.
Good luck

Thank you for the question and with so many well qualified surgeons here in the US, qualified by the American Board of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons I would have my surgery performed here
