Wow dolls!
Today marks exactly 1 week before I fly to Istanbul! OMG it's getting real real real. I'm very excited and just a little bit nervous. Ever since I made the decision to go with Balta I feel way more relaxed. The past weekend I did my final surgery shoppings.
My list now consists of the following:
- Arnica gel
- Hand sanitazer
- Dispossable washcloths
- All kind of wipes (facial, intimate, really girls all of the wipes :P)
- Intimate washing gel
- Painkillers
- Gauzes
- Hibiscrub (It's a washing formula they recommend you to use before surgery, it's disinfecting)
- Sterile gloves
- Slippers/house shoes
- Seamless shirts
- Lounge wear
- Seamless boxershorts
- Bathrobe
Please let me know if you guys think I forgot anything to add!
I will update you soon again :)!

Hi doll,
I am so excited for you! I have some thing to add on your list, which I have seen on a lot of other dolls their list.

Vitamins:
Vitamin c (1000mg)
Iron tablets floradix
B14 tablets
Folic acid
Start taking these vitamins daily one month before and one month after procedure. It is important to increase your Iron levels before the procedure. Avoid vitamin E and A af we weeks before and after te procedure.

Other supplies:
Surgical tape (1 or 2x)
Chux (20 pcs) to protect your bed, because you are going to leak fluid the first days.
Dettol wound spray
alcohol or alcoholpads
Anti bacterial soap
Disinfection wipes
Female urinal (so you can pee while standing the first days)
Laxatives
Female sanitary pads (1 or 2 packs) to put under your fajah on certain sensitive spots I believ
Lipo foam (3 pieces), abbboard and backboard (for under your fajah, to give more compression).
6 White cotton tanktops for under your fajah
Loose fit granny panties
cotton sportbras loose fitting
Compression socks 2 pairs

This is what I have to add for now, got these items from different lists from dolls on facebook groups and DR doctors. Not sure if some supplies or unnecessary. What kind of painkillers do you bring? And are post-op medicines (antibiotics, anti blood clotting) included?

Hi there,

Thank you for your comment! I've been taking floradix and arnica since a month :).

A lot of supplies you listed I dont have to bring, since they will be supplied by my surgeon (chux, sanitary pads, lipo foam).

All the other things I actually bought yesterday. Im just wondering how im going to fit everything in my carry on LOL. Im just bring paracetamol 1000mg, if I need something stronger my surgeon will provide. All post-op medicines are included in my quote.

Thanks for your reply :)!

Ooh how nice that they give you those supplies it saves a lot of shopping and space in your luggage. Can you take a handbag on the plane with your carry on? Good luck on your journey! You”ve got this!

How are you now?
February 7, 2020
Hello, how are you? can you share your experience with DR balta : how past your surgery? are you satisfied about the result, aftercare? thank you
February 16, 2020
To those asking, being the fbi agent that i am LOOL , ive seen her results on Dr Serkans page and when i came here i recognised the tattoos and thought omg that's her?!! Guys she looks AMAZING!!! Its unbelievable. But i guess she will respond when she's ready. I was just so excited for her i had to come and express it here. Hope i don't offend her by this
February 18, 2020
Same here. I saw her picture on surgery community in instagram and I immediately recognized her. Her result is brilliant. I actually told her that I saw her on RealSelf and she responded. She was very kind too.

Wow major change! New Dr. Serkan Balta!!

applebottompls
Hi dolls,
So my surgery is only like 7 weeks away and I made a huge change. I was so confident with going to Dr. Serbulent Guzey, but lately i've been having doubts. I was worried he is overworked (one can easily tell from his instagram page, often working till after midnight). Also I was fearing he cares more about his instagram models, rather than the normal girls like myself.
Also I am part of a group (not on social media, a private group), many girls went to Dr. Serbulent and they all have the samen complaint, results are good, but they finishing is lacking. Meaning they have places on the back for instance that aren't lipoed well. They all say the aftercare provided by him is non existent. This was also confirmed by the new provider I contacted (see below), she told me Dr. Serbulent takes about 6 to 8 patients a day and is lacking to finish everyone perfectly. From all the surgeons she works with, he is the only surgeon that her clients have complaints about and need to go back for a fix.
Another girl who is having her surgery around the same time as me was changing to Dr. Balta and put me in contact with an independent provider. This provider works both with Dr. Serbulent and Dr. Balta and gave me a very honest answer. She showed me great results from Dr. Balta and told me all there is to know about him.
I feel 10000000% relaxed now, knowing I picked a surgeon with more experience and less clients per day. Also his package includes after lipo massages, which are so important to your results and recovery. I hope to find here other girls who had surgery with him and can maybe tell me some more about him.
Besides changing Dr., I also changed provider. The provider I was using before got extremely populair in a short time and I believe they can't handle all the questions they get. However the provider I use now works with different surgeons, isn't biased and gives a way more personal service. She responses to my questions basically immediately and really went our of her way to get me an appointment with Dr. Balta on my preffered dates.
They costs are slighly higher, about € 4000,-- for the lipo + bbl, including legs. However this package included two nights at the hospital, intead of one and massages. So it's not really that much extra.
Feel free to ask me any questions or leave me a message. I also will update my whole journey, I promise I won't dissapear after my surgery :).

This is really helpful. I am looking at dr Serbulent but have started to hear similar things. Could you tell me or message me who the new provider you're going with is?
Btw I think you already have a good body, so you should get amazing results.

Hi, I’m happy to hear that my update on the review has helped you. I try to be as honest as I can be, because already I’ve noticed how fake this surgery world is and how difficult it is to find a trustworthy provider. My new provider is Pure Care Travel. She is also from the Netherlands but speaks perfect English as well. Let me know if you have any questions :).
September 8, 2019
Yeah, it is hard to know which surgeons to pick. Some are heavily promoted on Instagram, but I feel they care more about the insta models who have surgery with them rather than just an every day person lol
September 8, 2019
Thanks so much for your reviews, it's really very helpful
September 16, 2019
Good choice to change doctors. I am from the Netherlands too, I considered Imed as well, but some how not convinced about the results. Doing some research on realself and ended with dr. Gokhan Haytoglu, who works with Maya medical, I believe the same agency who works with Serkan Balta. I have a good feeling about Maya Medical, I am curious about the results of from Serkan Balta can't wait to see your results! Did you book with Maya Medical too? I am going in november, still haven't decided if I want additional lipo on arms and chin. I haven't seen before and afters, do you know girls who had lipo on those areas as wel? Were they satisfied?
September 18, 2019
Hi! Yes I’m very happy. Even more since a week ago “a bomb was dropped”. A secret group on Facebook was created with about 20 girls admitting they were botched by Serbulent. They were afraid to come forward with because Imed bashes then as liars. It caused a whole fight and the girls are going to the media and get lawyers because they want their money back. I’m also contemplating on getting lipo on the arms too, from my understanding it all has to do with the strength of your skin. The stronger your skin the better the results. I will upload pictures after my surgery to keep everyone updated :). Good luck with your journey as well!
September 20, 2019
Aaahh thanks for your reply. Awful what the dr. and imed did to the girls, I am glad I didn't choose for imed then. Good look with your procedure!

how much you pay for bbl ? Is leg liposuction included or did you have to pay it extra ?:)
May 1, 2019
Hi!

My quote is € 3450,— this includes full lipo of the abdomen, back and legs + BBL. I believe they charge € 300,— extra for arms and € 150,— for chin
