The living wage and salaries in Turkey are lower than in Europe, in addition, the government supports the health sector. Thus, rhinoplasty surgery in Turkey can be done without loss in quality and standards, with prices much lower than in Europe.

Turkey is among the top three health tourism leaders in the world, with over 2 million medical tourists a year. Experienced doctors together with a professional team take care of patients with quality and competence. Turkey ranks 17th in the world in terms of population, with a population of about 86 million. Doctors have a lot of practical experience compared to other countries, which makes them excellent professionals. It is safe to have nose surgery in Turkey.

There is closed rhinoplasty, in which only a small incision is made on the nasal mucosa. The procedure is performed through the nostrils.
In open rhinoplasty, on the other hand, an additional incision is made on the bridge of the nose so that the doctor can fold back the skin of the nose and better reach the bone. The scar is cosmetically closed, but initially visible as a fine line. Over time, however, it becomes invisible.

Rhinoplasty is considered to be a safe operation. Since the procedure is performed under general anesthesia, rhinoplasty has the same risks as any other surgery. In very rare cases, there may be an injury to the tear duct, smell nerve or sensory nerves.

As expected, the haematoma and swellings will disappear within 2 weeks after the surgery. After that, you will be fully fit for social life with your new nose

Although rhinoplasty can be performed on any patient over the age of 18, doctors agree that surgery is not advisable until the patient reaches the age of 20. At this age, bone growth in humans is complete.

Your attending physician will discuss the details with you.

Sunbathing, solarium, sauna and steam bath are forbidden up to 3 months after the operation! Strong heat has an unfavorable effect on the healing process.
