Unsatisfied & Discouraged
My entire life it’s my biggest insecurity and obvious physical flaw was my nose. Tons of research and Dr. Shopping around. I saw that AA nose jobs were big in Turkey and drastically cheaper so in 2021 I finally took the leap and booked with Dr. Bora Ok and flew to Turkey by myself.
The weeks leading up to the surgery his assistant was very nice and responsive. I sent my pics along with inspo pics and she understood what I wanted to fix (smaller nostrils and a defined cute bridge) and told me it was very possible for Dr. Bora …which made me even more excited and confident in my decision. When I arrived for surgery and actually met Dr. Bora in person… he was very curt, with a cold kind of attitude and basically told me right before my surgery when I showed him my inspo pics that my expectations weren’t possible and wouldn’t look natural for me and was bluntly like “you still wanna do it or cancel” as if I wasn’t across the world sitting in a hospital bed already…. it all caught me off guard because when I was doing my research and I really felt like what I asked for was not extreme at all especially considering it was a ethnic nose job…i didn’t want a pinched MJ nose….l just wanted some definition and shape to balance out my face and bring attention to my other features. So at that moment of course all the confidence I had went out the window but he was like “I promise it will look good” so I went through with it. BIG mistake. As soon as I seen the on the table pictures I hated my results. The only thing he did was give me a bridge which involved him taking cartilage from my rib. I could see that my nostrils weren’t taken in and now it was un even, so he actually created another problem. And when I said something about it to him of course him and his nurses gaslighted me and tried to convince me once I’m fully healed I’ll love it, and my side profile would be so “nice” they kept trying to emphasize my profile which to me was a major red flag that THEY knew my results were chopped because like what about the FRONT of my face.
Not only was it the most painful healing experience I ever been through but it also was torturous mentally knowing that when all the swelling goes down I still won’t be happy. Truly embarrassed that I went across the world and spent my time and money to just get my rib cage chipped at.
Once the full year went and I was “healed” they were suggesting I get fillers to help lift my tip and some bs medicine I should take. It’s heartbreaking because this type of procedure is painful, invasive and dangerous and myself (like most I would assume) wanted to be one and done. Having to get surgery and then get injections completely defeats the purpose of surgery and still doesn’t solve the issue of my nose now being asymmetrical. He offered to do a revision for only $1k but I would have to cover all my travel expenses of course. But atp I was completely disgusted by the entire ordeal.
Life has to go on so other things took priority in the meantime and I did end up getting nose fillers twice. Fast forward now almost 4 years later and I’m back to searching for doctors and revisions in the US start at like 20k smh. I really wish I would have chose another doctor I could just image how different my life would be. Not only did Dr.Bora botch me he aided to destroying my confidence not building it up. I’ve honestly have a fear of even searching in Turkey again because your doctor being so far away isn’t ideal along with language barriers. It’s almost manipulative that Dr.Bora assistants do all the communication beforehand and assure you that he will do what you expect and then once your at the point of no return and finally meet the guy he basically does whatever HE wants to do to your face and then wait a year for him to “correct it”….why would I trust you to correct it when you didn’t do it right the first time. Maybe it’s purposely a money grab for people to come back and spend more with him.
I know I am late finally talking about this but I’ve been trying to delude myself because i really didnt want to go through this procedure again but it’s hard to be happy in life when you are not secure in your physical appearance, especially with something as major as a nose. I would only recommend him to someone who wants minimal adjustments. If you really study his work he does best on noses that were never that bad to begin with. He is very overhyped and a revisions with other doctors will cost more in every aspect so be VERY mindful if you go with him. I would do anything to go back and choose someone else.
