Frequently asked Questions
The best country for rhinoplasty depends on several factors, including the expertise of surgeons, the quality of healthcare facilities, and affordability. Turkey is renowned for its advanced medical care, highly skilled rhinoplasty surgeons, and competitive pricing, making it a popular choice for patients worldwide. In the rhinoplasty community, Istanbul is renowned as “the capital of rhinoplasty” for a well-deserved reason.
The cost of rhinoplasty in Turkey can vary based on the complexity of the procedure, the experience of the surgeon, and the facility where the surgery is performed. Since healthcare and other facilities are less expensive compared to Western countries, we can confidently say that Turkey is a more affordable alternative for cosmetic surgeries, while maintaining the same quality standards.

Yes, Turkey is an excellent destination for rhinoplasty due to its world-class medical facilities, advanced surgical techniques, and experienced surgeons. Additionally, the cost-effectiveness combined with the opportunity to recover in a culturally rich and beautiful setting makes Turkey an attractive option for international patients.
The minimum age for rhinoplasty in Turkey is typically 18 years old for both males and females, ensuring that the nasal structure has fully developed. Exceptions may be made for functional surgeries or under specific circumstances, which should be discussed with a qualified surgeon.
Patients will be operated on in accredited and well-equipped medical facilities that meet strict safety and quality standards. It’s important to choose a clinic that has a strong track record of successful surgeries and positive patient testimonials.
In my practice, I prioritize the use of the piezo rhinoplasty technique for its precision and reduced recovery time. Unlike traditional methods that may involve more invasive bone handling, piezo rhinoplasty uses ultrasonic energy to sculpt the nasal bones delicately. This approach minimizes bruising and swelling, allowing for a more comfortable post-operative experience and precise outcomes. My choice of technique is based on achieving the best possible results for my patients, tailored to their specific goals and anatomical considerations.
Most patients start to notice significant improvements in breathing within a few weeks after the surgery, once the swelling has subsided. Full recovery and optimal breathing capacity are typically achieved within 3 to 6 months.
While the minimum recommended age is 18, there is no strict maximum age for rhinoplasty. However, patients should be in good general health. A thorough evaluation by your surgeon will determine your eligibility for the surgery based on your health status and goals.
The choice between open and closed rhinoplasty techniques depends on the specific needs and goals of the patient. Open rhinoplasty provides more visibility and access for complex changes, while closed rhinoplasty offers quicker recovery times for simpler adjustments. Your surgeon will recommend the best approach for your unique case.
In my practice I perform rhinoplasty under general anesthesia.Even if post operative patient comfort is high I ask my patients stay at hospital for one night for better post operative care.
Yes, I use nasal packing or splints after surgery, which play a crucial role in supporting the new shape of the nose, minimizing internal swellings, and preventing bleeding. Specifically, I opt for small-sized silicone splints. I prefer these because they significantly cause less discomfort, and are more comfortable when being removed.
The number of follow-up visits varies, but patients usually have 2-4 post-operative appointments within the first year after rhinoplasty to monitor their healing and results.Since with international patients face to face follow ups are not all the possible we may set online follow up consultations.
