How the process works for international patients — from the first message to follow-up after you fly home — described plainly, without testimonials or ratings.
This page does not show patient testimonials, star ratings or review counts. Each patient's anatomy, goals and recovery are different, and suitability is always confirmed by personal consultation and examination. Individual results vary.
You message Dr. Erdal directly via WhatsApp or the contact form. If you wish, include three photos (front, oblique, side), your height, weight and age, current bra size, smoking status, current medications and any prior breast surgery.
Dr. Erdal personally reviews the photos and clinical history — this is not delegated to a coordinator. Multiple WhatsApp exchanges are welcome, and a video call with Dr. Erdal can be scheduled if questions remain. There is no pressure to commit at this stage.
The day before surgery is dedicated to an in-person consultation with Dr. Erdal: measurements, photographs, an implant sizer trial, final implant selection and the surgical plan (technique and incision). Suitability is always confirmed by personal consultation and examination; deciding not to proceed is a legitimate outcome of a consultation.
Surgery is performed at a JCI-accredited private hospital under general anaesthesia, with overnight observation; Dr. Erdal personally performs the procedure. Daily check-ups follow during recovery at Antwell Suites, with a final check-up before your flight home. The patient journey page sets out each stage and its timing.
Photo and video follow-ups with Dr. Erdal continue through the first year, with WhatsApp access throughout the recovery year. All surgery carries risks; these are discussed individually before any decision.
You do not need to rely on anything the practice writes about itself. Qualifications, training and the Ministry of Health health-tourism authorisation (USHAŞ) No. 2026034015610080000444996 can be checked on the verifiable credentials page; training history, awards and publications are on the academic profile.
The practice's Google Business profile — location, contact details and anything patients have chosen to post there — is on Google, independent of this site: Google Business profile ↗
