I Had a Very Good Experience to Have my Surgery and to See Istanbul

Hi, I am 46 years young from U.K., father of two , I have been considering to get rid of fat around my belly for a while, so started with the swimming for around a year but not a very noticeable reasults , then around 16 months ago I joined a local gym I lost nearly 20 kgs , till lately I was 85 kg, my hight is 6ft.
I was much happier with my look but still there where some parts of my sides ( flanks) and mid of my belly not easy to get rid of that’s why I started thinking of liposuction, did two consultations here in U.K. they said you will get a good result but the price was around £9.000 , then I looked to do it in Turkey, via what clinic found so many surgeons till I narrowed it to few, then I decided on Dr Alper Tuncel in Istanbul.
Usually I don’t leave any reviews on things like this but I thought might help others who are reluctant to do this step which I was from beginning too.
Via WhatsApp I contacted Dr Alper’s clinic, soon after I was contacted by by Ferit who deals with international patients, after agreeing on the area’s I wanted to be treated and soon after we agreed on the price and the date of surgery, I traveled to Istanbul on 28/12/18 , me and my wife we where picked up in Airport by Ferit., he made us very well come and looked very professional and very honest person, he took us to our hotel , very nice hotel in 4 Levant area, close to shops restaurants and shopping Malls.
On 29th in the morning Ferit picked us up took us to the Hospital Cenrtrium and we met with Dr Alper, same very professional and very understanding and very good listener, we agreed to do liposuction on belly ,flanks , back sides and chest,
I stayed in a hospital till around 7:30pm then went to the surgery came out around 11:30pm ! He took nearly 4 litters of fat , my wife was waiting for me , when they brought me out I was ver very cold , my wife with the help of the other staff they started nursing me, straight after the surgery Dr Alper came to my suit to check on me and for reassuring that everything was good , at 2:00am I did my first little walk which it was not easy, I felt very dizzy, at 3:00am I had my first meal which I was very hungry and I finished it all, then did nearly 15 minutes walk , felt bruised and tired, on 30th Dr Alper came back to do his last check before I leave the hospital, he was very happy with the surgery and the way I felt too. We left the hospital around 3:00pm went back to the hotel with Ferit, same night we went for shopping Mall around our hotel we stayed out till 10:30pm, I should admit I thought before the surgery I will not be able to go out probably for couple of days but I felt perfectly normal to walk and all this down for my Wife’s help because if it was not for her I don’t think I will be able to do what I was doing, she didn’t let me to bend , she was dressing me, putting socks on putting my shoes on, she was a very very good help and a very good company. On our 5 remaining days in Istanbul we went to visit most of attractions, Ferit took us by his car as good generous gesture to Sultanahmet mosque, which it was very nice from him, it was very nice day, we went on the boat too, we really enjoyed our time in Istanbul, on 2/1/19 we had our last meeting with Dr Alper in his surgery, he was very happy with the last outcome, of course I’m still healing and he advised it will take around 6 months tIll you will see the real result, he was very happy answer all the questions from me and from my wife , on 3rd of January at 5:30am we were picked up by Ferit to go back to Airport.
I was very happy with all the service I received from Ferit I defenatly gives him 100 out of 100 .
Dr Alper same I recommend him to anyone, already we are in touch with Ferit for further treatments for a member of my family .
Now I’m nearly 8 days post my surgery, still stiff, swelled and bruised, not very easy to go in and out of car, walking no problem and already I can see the difference in my look, I’m glad I have done it, first thanks to my wife then to to Ferit and Dr Alper and hospital staff.
