I am more than satisfied with Dr. Şafak Aktar! He immediately understood what was bothering me, without me having to say much. I felt completely comfortable and safe with him. A huge thank you to his assistant, Burcin, who was by my side every step of the way and available at any time. Simply a perfect team that I can wholeheartedly recommend! I'm so happy I chose him ♥️ Translated fromGerman

The surgery was done February 8th, 2023 , at Esteworld, Istanbul. My name is Yelyzaveta ( I go by Liza it’s a short form of my official name) Pavlyuchenko. I am deeply unhappy with my experience and wish I had never chosen this surgeon. From the very beginning, the communication was lacking — I never felt truly listened to or properly informed about the choices being made for my body. The outcome has been devastating for me. My breasts turned out asymmetrical, the implants were placed incorrectly, wrong size and firmness of the implant caused breast to drop unnaturally. On top of that, the scars are very noticeable, I have hypertrophic scars, they hurt and are very itchy and this is nothing like what I was told to expect. I was left feeling disappointed, insecure, and heartbroken about results that were supposed to make me feel better about myself. I eventually had no choice but to go through another surgery with a different doctor just to fix what was done — which meant more pain, more recovery, and more money spent. This entire experience has taken an emotional toll on me. I share this because I don’t want anyone else to go through what I went through. Please make sure you research thoroughly, ask every single question, and don’t settle for a surgeon who doesn’t listen to your needs. I’ll add photos once I receive them from the surgeon who fixed my breast after Dr. Safak’s work.

I had my nose surgery in September 2024 and I couldn’t be happier with the result. My nose has healed beautifully, looks completely natural, and suits my face perfectly. I can also breathe without any problems now. 🍀 I keep receiving compliments – even my dentist was amazed and said that under medical lighting no scars are visible at all. He even told me it’s the most beautiful nose he has ever seen. 😁 In everyday life, nobody notices that I had surgery because it looks so natural. This result has truly changed my life – absolutely outstanding work! 🫶🏽

It's a very positive clinic where you're greeted with a smiling face the moment you walk in. We're currently undergoing a hair removal treatment with Ms. Dilek, and I recommend her to everyone. She recognizes your problem before you even mention it and finds a solution. Simply surrender to her. Beautiful, strong female entrepreneurs, you deserve the best. Translated fromTurkish
