I Wouldn’t Go Back to Get It Done Again

I am giving two stars to give some credit to the fact that the Dr. Is a nice guy, and the hospital was actually really nice and clean.

I received a temporal lift from this Dr. And I am completely uneven. He lifted one side 1/2” higher than the other. My eye shape is completely different and the scar was not tucked into the hair line as promised. See photos. Also, one scar is very angry and has a lumpy “rolled over” appearance.

When you ask the Dr. Why he placed the scars at different heights, he just keeps telling you to wait 3-6 months for healing. However my lower eye will not raise vertically within that time frame. Also, I am 60 days from my surgery and I still have massive dimples in my face even though they say they go away within 3-4 weeks. They don’t.

I had a lip lift as well, and although the lip shape looks great, the scar is angry. I don’t know that his suture technique is clean and small enough since 2 out of my three scars appear “angry”.

They provided me baby aspirin once I left the hostpial. When googled, it said it’s use was for mild cramps and headaches. I was in so much pain for a full 7 days I thought I was going to pass out. Little did I know, I didn’t have the proper medication to heal.

Lastly, they put you up at the Dedeman hotel which is located off a freeway and right in the middle of an automotive district. Which means if you walk out of your hotel, you will have banging/welding, muffler shops, exhaust shops, windshields, etc as far as you can walk. There is no “let’s go explore our neighborhood” option even when you’re feeling up for it.

Overall, Dr. Sirinoglu and his staff had my utmost confidence when I flew from USA to their office. I had done my research and after meeting them and seeing their surgical center I was excited.

Now that I’m done, I honestly wouldn’t do it twice. I’m left uneven without answers as to why anyone would lift two eyes differently in the goal to achieve symmetry.

This page won’t let me load any old pictures to show for some reason

This is terrible. Did dr contacted you for this? I was about to go see this dr.

The Dr. and his assistant just kept telling me to wait 3-6 months. But it is confusing to see so many other dr.'s and patients that are receiving ideal results in 1 month. There is another Dr. named Mehmet Gencer that I was considering before I went with Sinologlu. Maybe check out his work and see if you like it.

Thank you. Do you see any improvements on your face? Maybe the scars are getting smaller ? I think he needs to fix it without charging you.

I'm sorry you feel like this is it. But is not! You are right into the healing process, it really does take 6-8 months. And the improvements will still be showing slowly at 12 months. Is waaay too soon to come to conclusions and regrets. In my opinion you healing is actually amazing at 60 days, the swelling is not even close to what most people get at 60 days. Wear SPF 50+ everyday, gentle skin care, drink lots of water, eat simple and healthy foods. Give it the appropriate time to heal you are very beautiful and will be fine. But they should have given you the appropriate pain killers that was messed up that they didn't. For your scar look into Aduro LED light mask, the one with infra red and green light is amazing for healing and fading scars.

The scars don't look nice at all, have they improved since? Also, how about your total appearance? Are you happy with your face, and do your eyes look uneven at all, due to a different height?

I’m hoping that you can fix the issues that you have. Nobody deserves this

I wasn't able to upload all photos to the original post so I am including more.
Hoping these pictures will help to educate potential clients in the future, and wishing I had more insight before I booked this surgery.

Ugh I'm so sorry he did this to you. Your review has helped more people than you know. He's one of the turkish doctors I've been considering for over a year now, but this is the red flag I needed. Thank you so much .

I had surgery with Dr. Hakan Sirinoglu too, I got a temporal lift, lip lift and rhinoplasty. He injured the nerves on my left side and I can't raise the eyebrow at all, I need Botox to even out the right side. It's been almost 5 months and still no hopes of ever getting movement back. The indents will go away after 4 months. My lip lift scar looked like yours too, I've been micro needling with a dermapen and exfoliating every other day with a coffee scrub. The scar is less red and flat now, I'm looking into getting CO2 lasering to improve it as well. I wish you the best on your healing process and I hope everything improves with time to something we can be happy with.

Oh NO! I'm so sorry. After he took my bandages off he told me that I would need botox to maintain the height of the eyebrows. Honestly, you should NEVER need to get botox after this procedure. I'm so sorry that you're going through that. My temple scar is still lumpy and very prominent. Such a nightmare honestly!

I'm sitting in my hotel now... I had the temporal lift and rhinoplasty done 8/4... I see him tomorrow 8/9 to see what he's done. I'm praying everything will be ok. My face is so beat up and bruised I can't imagine a small on my face when the bandages come off. Will post my review after the first appointment! I wish I saw your review before I came out here. I would have canceled

Hoping for good results for you!

Hello lovely. I am confused. Have you done it by Dr Hakan Sirinoglu too? And how was your surgery and recovery? Please can you share.
August 17, 2022
What is the result like now ? Do you still have the dimples and is it still as bad ?
August 18, 2022
The lip lift scar is still a hot mess. Two dimples my upper cheek bones are still apparent when I smile. My surgery was April 15th and I was told 30 days max on the dimples but I'm in month 4. I have to use colored spray to hide the surgical scars in my hair line because they are still very obvious.
