My incredible experience with my Facelift
Going to another country for a major surgery can be a scary process. My experience with Dr. Berke Ozucer and his staff was anything but! From first interaction with his patent advocate, to the surgery and after care, my experience was top notch. The hospitality, care and kindness truly created a very secure enviroment from the get go. I did a lot of research on Dr. B's education and skill level before I chose him. He only works with the face and that was important to me. He has in depth training on facial reconstruction and that gave me deep confidence in his knowledge of the face. His skill is astounding. His education and continued learning is impressive. Upon meeting him, I felt instantly connected to him and his team. Dr. B is Friendly, intelligent, succinct, confident and caring. You feel the importance of an incredible result from him.
His clinic is located in an upscale area on the Asian side of Istanbul. It was a lovely experience to be there while recovering.
The Memorial Goztepe hospital was brand new, modern and lovely. The care I received there was top notch (with an English interpreter provided at all times when needed.) The team he has surrounded himself with was also lovely and hard working. I adored them all. I truly miss the people I met for 10 days.
The surgery went well and the healing began. I had tolerable pain the first day and a half, and then it is just discomfort and swelling. I can't say enough about his skill level. You are given all medications and ointments needed for after care. You are seen after surgery about 4 times in the first 8 days. Response time to questions are quick and prompt. I returned home to Denver after 12 days and that was plenty of time.
One thing Dr. B highly recomends is that it is imperative to bring a companion to help you after surgery. I can not agree more or stress this enough. His team is in demand and busy, they work 6 days a week. They are always present in the times they are with you, but they can not be there to offer emotional security throughout your healing. Bring a loved one!
Lastly, if you are considering a face lift, I hope you choose Dr B and his team. I hope you have the same incredible experience and results that I did. Good luck on your journey.
