WORTH IT$5,100
My procedure is to take place at Jinemed Hospital in Istanbul, but other than taking my deposit I've heard nothing from the hospital, other than I am a good can't date and they will be happy to perform lower facelift and neck lift on me. I have had no medical questions asked and no follow up on how the procedure will be. I was told Dr was a member of ISPAS & ESPAS, but after conducting an exhausting search I learned that he is not a member of either. He is a member however of the Turkish Society of Cosmetic Surgeons. Has anyone ever had a procedure done by doctors at Jinemed? And in particular Dr Zafer?

Don't do it. You'll be sorry. 7,000 thats way to much. Don't go there. There are millions of plastic surgeons

Run for your life. You should expect much more than this - emails, medical questionnaire, treatment plan, patient co-ordinator, testimonials, before and after pics......

Aloha! You look beautiful! I am considering Dr. Sameer.
I just sent him off my pics.
Thank You for your review.
How is your facelift and fat transfer holding up?
Mahalo!

Facelift/ neck lift
flyingsoloAugust 22, 2015
After way too many red flags, emails not immediately returned, absolutely no encounter with Istanbul doctor, no explanation of procedure other than yes facelift/ neck lift can be done on me, no other information I have cancelled my procedure. Although it has taken almost a month to get deposit refund, I did get it. Very very glad I did, remember if you can feel even a little bit uncomfortable, there is no shame in backing out. After more research I found my doctor in India .

It's good to go with your gut feelings. I think you are very lucky to get your deposit back.

Are you a world traveler. Now India where are you originally from so you can go home and recuperate with a doctor call or visit if needed.

I am from Canada and yes I travel a lot for work, so I was able to take advantage of my points and was able to get there for free. Well worth it, I would do it again in a heartbeat. Best doctor ever, very attentive and listened to all my concerns. Did not want to look fake and he delivered. Went back to work and co workers are complimenting me on my hair, lol. It looks like me just way fresher. I will post pics again soon.

After starting back at square 1, this one review kept popping up at top of page, this 64 year old Aussie grandmother, she was quite through and posted daily of her experiences in Thane. I originally reached out to Dr Sameer in April when I was debating where to go. Dr returned my email within 24 hours, over time we developed a rapport, Dr requested to see pictures of my face, I enclosed the ones I sent. He felt I was a good candidate for lower/ facelift and described in detail all the procedures that would take place, macs lift etc. I started serious communication with him around April 24th. After discussing price for procedure and cancelling my Istanbul trip, I decided to head to India instead for procedure August 10. All was decided I was going to stay 10 days all meals and accommodation medications and head garment provided for at hospital.

If your a US person stay in US there are fabulous docs in LA and NY.

The problem with the US is you have to pay about 5-10 times more, for the same high quality treatment.
Thank you for starting your story so far! Unfortunately I'm not familiar with Turkish doctors, but I would say if you're having serious doubts then it's probably best to do more research before you put any money toward the procedure. Here's a list of questions to ask him before surgery. Please use this space to keep us updated!
