I had my doubts about having a cosmetic procedure so far from home. Before visiting the clinic, I had read so much about it that my eyes hurt. As soon as I knew that Dr Canli would be my surgeon, I started following his work. It was reassuring that he had never been afraid posting the 'not-so-appealing' early photos, making it so much more relatable and easier to anticipate the healing process. I can confirm from first hand that the early photos are really posted when taken - just one day after the surgery, not six months later in retrospect 😀
Although I'm only one week post op, I already know that I got what I came for. Dr Canli's experience, skills and professionalism are topped up with availability whenever I had questions (no matter how stupid these were), a great bedside manner, and dark humor, just when you need it the most.

I had my rhinoplasty 3 months ago with dr. Mert Canli. From the start he sketched a very realistic expectation of what the possible result could be with my nose. After surgery i didnt experience any pain, just some inconvenience and swelling. The results look amazing and my confindence went up a lot. Cant reccomend dr. Mert canli enough!

Four weeks ago, I had a facelift performed by Dr. Mert Canli, and I am truly satisfied with both the process and the results. From the very first consultation to the follow-up care, I felt completely supported and in expert hands. Dr. Canli is not only highly skilled and professional, but also honest, attentive, and truly listened to my wishes. The results are natural and refined – exactly what I hoped for.
I would also like to sincerely thank the entire team. The nurses, assistants, and everyone in the department were kind, supportive, and very well-organized. Everything went smoothly, and I always felt respected and well cared for.
Thanks to their dedication and professionalism, this experience has been a very positive one for me. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Canli and his team.
I’m very happy with results and I’m very grateful.
Kind regards,

I recently had a rhinoplasty at this clinic, and I couldn’t be happier with the entire experience. From the moment I was picked up at the airport, I felt completely taken care of. The level of professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine care shown by the entire team was truly exceptional.
Dr. Mert was amazing. He took the time to understand my goals and answered all of my questions thoroughly, making me feel confident and reassured every step of the way. The results exceeded my expectations – natural , and exactly what I hoped for.
The clinic itself is immaculate and beautifully run. Every staff member was kind, and highly professional. The pre- and post-operative care was great.
A huge thank you to Agnieszka, who played a key role in making the entire journey seamless. She helped with translation, logistics, and all the little details that made the process stress-free. Her patience and dedication truly made a difference.
I recommend this clinic to anyone considering cosmetic surgery. It was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.

I had a septorhinoplasty with Dr. Mert Canli a week ago, and I couldn’t be happier with the results! Even though I still have significant swelling, my nose already looks great. From the very first consultation, the doctor was professional, attentive, and truly listened to my concerns. The surgery went smoothly,
and the recovery process has been easier than I expected. My breathing has significantly improved, and I can already see that the aesthetic outcome will be natural and beautiful. I’m incredibly grateful for the doctor’s skill and care. Highly recommend!

The surgery was very easy (I had almost no bruising or pain), and I received top-quality service throughout. I'd like to thank Mert, his assistant Damla, the nurses who took care of me, and the entire Esteworld team for their attentiveness and for doing such a successful job. Translated fromTurkish

Mert Canli is, in a word, a "miracle doctor."
He saved my nose.
I had a previous operation in the Netherlands, and my nose was so badly damaged there that it wouldn't have been an easy revision.
Before the surgery, Mert came to my room, and I was able to explain exactly what I wanted to do with my nose. He gave me information about what he could do for me. Everything was very clear, and he really took his time with me.
Then the surgery...
It's a miracle what Mert did for my nose. I had almost no swelling, and my nose looked perfect even with the cap.
When the cap came off and I saw my new nose for the first time, I was emotional. I thought it was beautiful, and I never expected it to be so beautiful. My nose is firm and small again; it's exactly what I wanted.
I am incredibly grateful to Mert!
He has improved my life!
If you're looking for a knowledgeable, friendly, helpful, professional, and simply fantastic doctor? then I recommend Mert! Translated fromDutch

I had a rhinoplasty with Dr Mert Canli in Este World Clinic.
It was a great experience at every step of the way. Starting with my translators and nurses who are very very attentive and friendly.
When I had my meeting with Dr Mert he told me what is his vision of the new nose and that was exactly what I was visualizing. He is very very professional. I didn’t need to add much during the consultation.
After the surgery I got my before and after pictures, and the nose looked absolutely amazing. It completely changed my face the way I always wanted it to be. Even though I have thick skin on my nose I’m hundred percent satisfied with the new shape. Very natural result.
The day my bandage was removed I can see the shape suits my face a lot. It is such a big change. At the final examination day the doctor answered all my questions about the post op recovery for the nearest months.
I would like to say, it was a very great experience even though it took time for me to make this decision to go for the surgery! Dr Mert and his team made the journey very smooth and pleasant!
I would like to say big thank you to Dr Mert! The best choice for everyone who wants to do rhinoplasty!
