Awesome Experience With Dr. Arif, Mustafa and the Team - Facelift & Revision Rhinoplasty

Background Information - This is a detailed review for anyone who resides outside Turkey and is considering Dr. Arif for their cosmetic needs. I reside in North America so naturally I was hesitant to go alone, all the way to Turkey, for a surgery. Getting the visa, and preparing for the trip was a lengthy (but worth it) process.

Procedure - I had a temporal facelift, canthopexy and a revision rhinoplasty done to enhance my eye area. Dr. Arif's work is mostly focused around body aesthetics which honestly made me a bit hesitant (since my need is focused on facial aesthetics) but due to his extensive experience and reassurance from his team, I took the decision to proceed.

Pre-Surgery Experience - I had a hotel reservation and transfer service booked by the doctor's team. The initial consultation happened in a luxurious hospital. The doctor doesn't speak English quite well but Mustafa (doctor's assistant) was able to translate my expectations clearly. The doctor gave me honest feedback on how I should expect the results to be and if I wanted something else done in specific. At this stage, I suggest having a photoshopped image of yourself to better communicate the look that you wish to have. Most of my emphasis was to look natural and not overdone.

Post Surgery Experience - The first few days were very slow. The doctor's team took great care of my with regular check-ups every 30 mins. The food served was great and the hospital room was pretty similar to a hotel room. The first week will almost make you a little depressed due to the swelling but hang in there!

Outcome - As of today, I am approaching the end of second week post surgery, the results are awesome and the swelling is reducing day by day. My nose looks very natural even after a revision rhinoplasty while my eyes look dynamic. My dark circles are completely gone and I'm loving my front profile.

Recommendation - I highly recommend Dr. Arif and his team for your facial cosmetic procedures. Special thanks to Mustafa for coordinating everything quite well.

Will be uploading before vs after photos shortly for reference.
