The Best Facial Surgeon in Turkey!!!
What can I say about Dr Ali and his team!!! Where do even start. I’ve just returned from ?nstanbul and know it well because I’ve been going out there for tooth implants. I researched for years to find a Dr who specialised in the face. I scrolled all the usual review forums, instagram etc. however i had to go out to have abdominal surgery to fix the damage done to me by UK NHS from a defective mesh implant which ruined my health and body. So I paid privately and found a surgeon in Istanbul too who used the best facilities including Acibadem hospital and Antwell suites recovery hotel which has its own infirmary and spa. So while I was there after spending years trying to find a Dr for my face I met a few of Dt Ali Cetinkaya’s patients. They were singing his praises telling me how talented he is and that he prioritises safety and care and that unlike my last surgeon they saw him regularly and he had his own permanent nursing staff who are totally dedicated and are always on call at the infirmary. So this was something I’d never encountered in all my 10 years of having private surgery. A Dr who prioritised his patients over money. For instance unlike other surgeons he only dues one surgery per day. A lot of surgeons squeeze in two surgeries which is nuts given that these surgeries take up to 5/6 hrs. I literally thought this was fate.. and immediately contacted them when I returned home. Knowing that Dr Ali also uses the best facilities, because Antwell is exceptional for recovery. I was on my own both times and everyone there are patients from all over the world so it’s all geared up for patients who end up becoming friends. So yes within a few weeks I had a FaceTime chat with Dr Ali. I already knew I wanted him but I was doubly convinced after our consultation. Unfortunately at that time he didn’t do visits to london but he is going to change that and is planning to have open days. That didn’t even matter for me because I knew I’d made the right choice. He’s a lovely caring fluent English speaking aesthetic genius as far as I’m concerned. So when I arrived I met the whole team, Damla,Selin are his full time nurses and Gizem is the coordinator. Unlike most ppl I have a lot to compare my experience with as I’ve had 3 cosmetic surgeries including one in UK and 7 other ops. So when I tell you this service is top tier first rate I am speaking from experience. I had 2 nights in the hospital with private nurses then I was taken to Dr Ali’s extremely smart clinic ( even for Knightsbridge London standards!) there I had the latest technology Co2 lazer treatment and asked for him to do extra work on my TT scar and chest. Face is included in the price. Being a 30 year smoker co2 was essential for me and my skin looks 25 again. It’s quite astonishing! So I’m a 52 year old who had deep plane face and neck, temporal lift. Lip lift and nose tip. They had me booked in to stay 12 nights that’s the other difference I was sent home totally unprepared and far too early last time after my TT. Dt Ali may be a little more expensive but that’s because he spends more and he’s the best and you don’t want to take any chances with your face. All meds are included. I had a few issues with my neck swelling up, Selin drained it 3 times which was a massive relief and had me on I’ve steroids. So pretty much they are there for you every step of the way if anything needs doing. I literally love this team and Dr Ali is a wonderful soul and so talented. I’m so pleased I went with a younger surgeon because he’s using cutting edge technology, he encourages to do hyperbaric oxygen chamber and he’s so committed and hardworking it’s crazy. He works 7 days a week. I think he will be considered the best surgeon in Turkey one day and be famous. He has attracted patients from all over the world. The cost in UK and US would be 45 times the cost. I will never go anywhere else for work. He does bodies too did I mention that? I am going back in a few months for more treatment and I need to finish dental work too. Istanbul are lovely ppl. I felt much safer touring around the grand bazaar on the Wirope side than in London. All in all the best possible experience if I could give Dr Ali and his team 6 stars I would and I will be dropping him to see him when he comes to London.when my face goes down I will post before and after photos but too swollen at the moment. GO WITH DR ALI YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT.
