FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

We listen to you and care about your concerns. Please review the guide we have prepared to familiarise yourself with our processes before your examination.

How can I make an appointment for a check-up?

Appointments at our clinic are made through an appointment system. You can book your appointment by filling out the ‘Book an Appointment’ form on our website, messaging us on our WhatsApp line at 0531 888 56 90, or calling us directly. Our assistants will help you schedule the most convenient day and time for you.

Our process is well-planned for patients coming from outside Istanbul. You can receive a preliminary assessment (online consultation) by sending your photographs via WhatsApp before your arrival. For surgery, it is generally sufficient to arrive one day before the procedure and stay in Istanbul for a total of 7-8 days for post-operative check-ups. You can receive support from our team for transfer and accommodation recommendations.

Dr Bekir Can Gümüşlü performs his surgeries at Istanbul’s elite, fully equipped, and internationally accredited (JCI) A+ class hospitals to ensure the highest level of patient safety and comfort.

No cosmetic surgery (such as rhinoplasty or facelifts) is covered by the Social Security Institution (SGK) or private insurance. However, for functional surgeries such as breathing problems (deviation), sinusitis or adenoids, you may be able to benefit from your private health insurance, depending on your policy coverage. Please consult our assistants for detailed information.

Yes. During the detailed examination at our clinic, high-resolution photographs are taken and your potential post-operative appearance is digitally designed using a special simulation programme. This work is very valuable in terms of clearly communicating your expectations to our doctor and allowing our doctor to show you what can be done.

Our prices are determined on an individual basis according to the type of procedure to be performed (whether it is an initial surgery or a revision), the technique to be applied, the technology to be used (Piezo, etc.), and the choice of hospital where the surgery will be performed. Therefore, due to legal regulations, we cannot share exact prices on our website; the most accurate price information can be provided after the consultation.

This period varies depending on the procedure performed. For non-surgical procedures (Botox, fillers), you can return to work the same day. For surgeries such as nose and eyelid procedures, you can generally return to work and social life after one week (once the splints/stitches are removed). For more extensive surgeries such as facelifts, you can return to work and social life after 10-14 days.

Dr Bekir Can Gümüşlü is a specialist in Ear, Nose and Throat (ENT) and Head and Neck Surgery. This specialisation provides comprehensive expertise in facial anatomy, nasal functions (breathing) and facial aesthetics from both surgical and medical perspectives. Therefore, ‘Facial Plastic Surgery’ is one of the core areas of interest within ENT specialisation.

The minimum age for nose and chin surgery is 17-18, when bone development is complete. Pinna surgery can be performed from the age of 6. There is no upper age limit; any patient of any age whose general health (heart, blood pressure, etc.) is suitable for anaesthesia can undergo cosmetic surgery.

For operations performed under general anaesthesia, you will need to stay in hospital for one night. During this time, it is recommended that you have a companion (a relative) with you to assist with your needs and provide moral support. However, for patients without a companion, hospital nurses and staff provide 24/7 support.
