FAQs

Aesthetic surgery is a shape correction surgery. In other words, it is changing the shape and/or dimensions of the damaged tissues and organs according to the patient’s taste and ideal anatomical measurements. Example: Augmentation of a small breast with a silicone prosthesis. Reconstructive surgery is a repair surgery. It is the reformation of organs, which are congenitally deficient or defected or have destroyed or deformed as a result of accident, burn, tumour surgery. Example: Reconstruction of the breast removed as a result of cancer.

One of the questions asked by the people, who desire to have a more beautiful appearance of his/her body, is the price. For example: “How much is a rhinoplasty operation?” As you can imagine, there is no single answer to this question. The operation prices vary according to the patient’s anatomy as well as many other conditions such as the operation method to be used. Therefore, the first thing you should ask a doctor who is competent in his work should not be the price of the operation.

The risks of aesthetic operations are risks that may arise from the general health problems of the person as well as all other surgical procedures. Apart from this, there are no hazards associated with aesthetic operations. Since aesthetic operation does not involve vital organs and tissues, risking the patient’s health or life is not a matter of concern.

Many aesthetic operations are not painful because they involve in the skin and subcutaneous tissues. Even if there is mild pain, it takes 1-2 days to disappear and it can be easily controlled with painkillers within this period. In operations involving muscles, for example, breast prosthesis operations, pain and tension sensations may last a little longer.

It is usually possible to go home the same day following an aesthetic operation. In some cases, the 1-day hospital stay is useful for follow-up. There may be rare situations requiring hospital stays of 2-3 days. The healing process, i.e. the removal of the bandages, plaster, stitches from the body, is completed within 1 week. The new shape formed as a result of the intervention performed will reach its final stage in a few months.

It is possible to get pregnant and give birth, provided that the patient should wait for at least one year after the operation.
