The journey

Your journey, step by step

From first photos and weight story to the settled result — exactly how it works for international patients.

Free online consultation

Send photos (front, side, holding the fold) and your weight history over WhatsApp — how much you lost, how, and how long stable. Dr. Erdal tells you honestly which operation fits, or whether to wait.

Personalised plan & quote

Standard, fleur-de-lis or 360 — a tailored plan with an all-inclusive quote and no obligation.

Arrival & in-person exam

In Istanbul you are examined and the plan confirmed before anything is scheduled.

The operation

Typically 2–4 hours under general anaesthesia with a qualified anaesthesia team, followed by a night in an accredited hospital.

Recovery & support

You recover nearby with drains managed, garment fitted and the team on call — typically 7–10 days in Istanbul before flying.

Follow-up from home

Dr. Erdal stays reachable as swelling settles and the scar matures — photo reviews at the intervals that matter.

Before you travel

Your weight story is half the assessment.

Photos (front, side, holding the fold — and gathering it sideways if massive loss) plus the numbers: how much you lost, how, over what period, stable since when, and any medications including GLP-1s. From this, Dr. Erdal tells you honestly which operation fits — or gives you the target date to aim for. The in-person examination on arrival confirms everything before surgery is scheduled.

Aftercare from home

Followed until it's finished — including the scar.

Photo reviews as swelling settles, guidance through the garment weeks, and the long calendar of the scar (12–18 months) — Dr. Erdal stays reachable across all of it, and the "is this normal?" questions get fast, direct answers.
