Failed Rhinoplasty: 10 Months Later, Still Wide – Clinic Denies Responsibility
I am from Germany and underwent rhinoplasty at this clinic on February 3rd. I am now 10 months post-operation, which is more than enough time to judge the final result. This review is written so others understand what happens when something goes wrong.
From the very beginning, the experience was poorly organized. We waited over an hour at the airport for pickup. The clinic itself was clean, but that is where the positives end.
The pre-operative consultation with Dr. Kadri ?la was extremely brief. I clearly stated that I wanted a smaller and narrower nose.
There were no CT scans, no proper structural analysis, and no in-depth discussion. After surgery, I was informed that my nose had been broken and my septum was deviated — information I was never given beforehand.
Aftercare was minimal. On day 7, the cast and tampons were removed, and I was essentially left on my own.
Constant excuses: “It’s just swelling”
For months, I was repeatedly told that my concerns were due to post-operative swelling and that I should “wait.”
Because of this, I consulted three independent ENT specialists and plastic surgeons in Germany.
All three confirmed the same thing:
• The result is not caused by swelling
• The problems are structural
• A clear treatment error (malcorrection) is present
The documented findings include:
• Structural deviation of the nose
• Excessively wide bony nasal vault
• Polly beak deformity
• Overly wide nasal tip
• Retracted columella
• Strongly flared alar base
• Disproportionate radix for a male face
This means the final result is medically and aesthetically unacceptable.
Communication stops when money is discussed
Initially, there was friendly contact and even a video call. However, once I clearly stated that I do not trust this clinic or surgeon for a revision and asked for a refund instead, the tone changed.
Emails and messages are now completely ignored.
I even contacted the founder of the clinic, Dr. Med. Güray Ye?iladal?, personally, outlining the medically confirmed treatment error and asking for a professional solution.
No response.
Reality check
Being told for months that a failed result is “just swelling” — while three independent doctors say the opposite — is not acceptable.
Ignoring a patient after refusing a refund shows exactly how this clinic operates once accountability is required.
My face has been permanently altered, and I am now facing a costly revision surgery elsewhere because I no longer trust this clinic.
If you are considering surgery here, understand this:
As long as everything goes well, you may be fine.
But if something goes wrong, you are on your own.

Response from Dr. Ila:
Thank you for sharing your feedback. Patient opinions are important for evaluating our medical practices.
I am sorry to hear that you are dissatisfied with the outcome of your rhinoplasty. Rhinoplasty is a complex procedure, and the healing process varies individually depending on many factors such as anatomy, skin thickness, and tissue response. For this reason, the final result can be properly assessed only after a minimum of 12 months.
Throughout the postoperative period, you were informed via messages, emails, and online consultations that additional time was required to evaluate the final outcome.
Based on my medical assessment, a revision surgery was offered in good faith to address your concerns and to achieve the best possible result. As this option was respectfully declined, a refund cannot be considered in accordance with medical protocols and clinic policy.
Regarding communication, I would like to clarify that we have remained available and responsive through appropriate channels and have provided explanations and options within our medical and administrative framework.
Please feel free to contact my team if you require any further assistance.
