It's only been 3 days since my revision. I am 33 year old male from uk but travelled to Turkey after a reccommendation. I had interpreter but still abit of a language barrier. My nose looks so much bigger then before (I still have cast on) But the Drs here sent me pictures when he done operation when I was on table. I'm gettin my cast in 2 days I wasn't to concerned bit I seen the pics he sent me. My nose looks wider from the front and nostrils look different size. I really was hoping to have my revision with Dr Lucian ion bit unfortunately he stopped doing revisions. Here are some pictures

Great Job !!! is only been 3 days the swelling would coke down in a few years !! the arch of your nose and side profile is amazing !! do you mind sharing this doctors name ? I also need a revision
January 17, 2018
Well I'm really hoping it does go down. I'm not sure if he did osteotomy so nose may stay wider. I'm still in Turkey in hotel room and cast coming off in 2 hours. And Drs name is Dr erkal engin. He's on instagram aswell. I will let you know how everything is
January 17, 2018
I have sent a private message too , trust me your arch is super cute and gives you a nice profile !! Plus you saved yourself thousands Dr. ion operates from the most expensive hospital in central London just in fees you get your nose done with someone with less ego and better skills !!
January 17, 2018
It only been 4 days. I need to wait at least couple weeks or months and hopefully front gets better. Will ask Dr when see him. And price was good . I'm just really hoping I don't need to go through this again.
January 17, 2018
I would think if you got sufficient bone structure on your arch you have enough to give you profile which that’s what makes a beautiful nose , when the swelling comes down you will see the difference
The tip is good too !!
I think most cases people can see by tip of the nose and your looks nicely done !
Is he hotel nice where you staying and who did recommended you for the revision doctor ?
And do we need to take a translator with us ?

A friend went to Istanbul to see a different Dr izamet izamet. I didn't k ow about Turkey surgeons so started to do alot of research. And found Dr engin ista good. The hotel I'm staying at is super nice. In antalya called club falcon hotel. And you don't need an interpreter. His secretary speaks good English and is with you when you see dr.
January 17, 2018
Looks good so far!

I recently consulted with Lucian Ion, but I'm also tempted by Dr. Engin (because his revisions on Insta are fantastic and the price is much lower).

Does the doctor perform surgeries in a private clinic or a regular hospital?
Also, does the doctor speak any English?
January 17, 2018
He has separate office and the operation is in like a big hospital. And he does not speak English he has his secretary that speaks English. I wanted to say alot more to him but really couldnt. I hope this helps and am hoping my results turn out good

January 20, 2018

January 22, 2018
Your nose looks great...he's done a good job....remember that you are swollen and it takes months to go down..but it looks great.

January 29, 2018
Yes I am
How’s the swelling? Is your nose still wide?
January 29, 2018
Yes. Today is 16 days and the nose seems wide I'm hoping it's just swelling. It is going down slowly. And 16 days is still early. Dr said to me to wait at least 3 months before scrutinizing the nose

I went to Dr he only took out nasal packing
Feeling soo much better can breathe easier. The cast is coming off saturday
I asked Dr about my concerns like is it going to stay wide etc he said no it is all swollen. And he has not done anything for the nose to be wider. Am hoping it does go narrower. Then have a prescription I need to get. Nasal spray 4 times a day. And today nose feeling and looking less upwards and swollen. Will know more when get my cast off on Saturday. Will keep updated.

January 19, 2018

Hi sara
He really is a brilliant Dr, i'd recommend him to anyone...he knows his stuff!
January 20, 2018
Yes I messaged him aswell before. He had amazing revisions on his Insta also
January 21, 2018
He was one of my choices aswell when I was looking into turkey. Could I ask did he do 2d or 3d on his office?

what did doctor did ? did he build ur nasal bridge ?
January 19, 2018
but he is really skilled ? looks very natural!!!
January 19, 2018
I said I want it to look natural like I've had nothing done. He did tip work fixes columella and he said I had alot of fractures on my right side and I remembered that's from a heasbutt along time ago lol
He built that side back up. And not sure if he did do osteotomy. After looking at his Insta and his work I put trust in him.
And I will defo keep updated
January 20, 2018
thank you so much ,, I tried to find his Insta but cold not . can I send me his account name?
January 20, 2018
Type in drerkalengin and it will come up
January 20, 2018
thank you ... would you go for him if Lucian Ion was still doing revision????
January 20, 2018
Dr Lucian ion would be my first choice. I only started looking at Turkey when Dr ion no longer doing revisions. So far so good anyway got more tape on nose and it is sooo swollen up. Dr saying it's swollen it can take 3 months so just have to patient it out
January 20, 2018
I think your nose is ideal for man ! congratulations,I wish you get the happiness,... best
January 19, 2018
