4 weeks ago I had a deep plane face lift, neck lift and upper and lower bleph.
I had lost 35 kg and my face looked so old.
From the time l contact the amazing consultant Sahar, I felt completely comfortable. Dr Gorkem Astal is absolutely so kind and caring and did a sensational job. I look 20 years younger.
I had no issues, and all his staff were kind, caring and helpful, nothing was an issue. I miss them all so much Sahar, Sherry and Nilsu xxx .
I felt like family and was treated like a queen.
I highly recommend contacting Sahar, if you are wanting not only a face lift but they also can arrange other cosmetic surgery. I had a mummy makeover whilst I was there as well.
From transportation, tests, hospital, amazing hotel and all his staff are there for you and all spoke perfect English. I can't recommend them enough

I made the decision to use Dr Gorkem…
I made the decision to use Dr Gorkem Atsal and his staff in clinic because my ex-husband had used them in February 2026. Upon his return to the States and the results while healing, was what enticed me to have the work done myself. I had a deep plane facelift and the fat pockets removed from under my eyes. The service that the clinic provided in terms of transportation, accommodations, breakfast every morning, surgery, anesthesiologist and the hospital stay were way beyond what I had anticipated. In the doctor's advertisements that I got to see while still in the States that showed the cost was exactly what the cost was and no hidden fees whatsoever. Everything they claim to do they did. The doctor and all of his staff treat you like royalty and family and you could not ask for more. Any questions were either answered in person or on WhatsApp. I knew what I wanted done however I remember hearing the doctor say that once we were in surgery, if he saw something that needed correcting, he would do that. What I did not expect was that along with my face eyes and neck, he did my decollette as well. It was an outstanding job. The doctor's hands and ability are exceptional. I know that we read that perhaps these reviews are paid for but I am here to tell you that I'm not being paid for this review and I am most happy and pleased to leave this review for anybody contemplating using Dr Atsal. I am now 3 weeks post-surgery and almost daily take pictures and send them to the clinic so they can see my progress. They always respond and let me know that I appear to be healing well and on schedule.

It was important to me to meet with my surgeon before the procedure. Dr Gorkem Astal and his delightful team visit the UK frequently to meet with potential patients and previous patients for aftercare and assessment. Dr Gorkem Astal is just wonderful he made me feel supported, and we discussed the various procedures I requested. He was hands-on, feeling the structure of my skin and assessing what I needed to achieve the desired result. I was given a quote that basically covered everything. Once booked I had WhatsApp communication for any questions I had before travel. About a week before I was contacted and given another WhatsApp group of the team that would be looking after me. On arrival, I was collected and taken to the hotel and picked up early the following morning. After a medical check-up, blood, chest X-ray etc. I met again with Dr Gorkem. He put me at my ease and was very reassuring. My hole experience was positive I was well looked after and in contact with the team for the duration of my trip. I met again with Dr Gorkem for post-surgery assessment and was offered a CO2 laser at no extra cost. All my meds and sunblock were given to me before leaving. I have been in contact frequently as the team request photos of your healing process. Now 12 weeks on, I'm thrilled with my results. I still have active internal healing which is normal. I met with Dr Gorkem Astal yet again In London for a check up and will see again next time he is in the UK. I highly recommend this Board certified surgeon. Caroline

Deeplane face lift, temporal lift, unterlid Straffung nicht gelungen
Leider deeplane facelift nicht gelungen, Narben sehr schlecht, temporal Lift eine voll Katastrophe mit Dellen, Narben und dauer Problemen und Schwellungen, alles schlimmer wie vor der OP. Keine Reaktion oder angebot vom Team, leider kommt sowas für mich nicht mehr in Frage.

I was booked in with Dr Gorkem for a neck lift. And from the minute i arrived in istanbul they did not send me a welcome message or anything, or didn’t even want to speak about my surgery until 2 days before i was due to have it because apparantly they were to busy with other people. So something felt off with these guys and i started doing my research properly… after typing his name on facebook people were saying how he’s botched their faces and not to go with him. so i then typed his name on google and searched if he was on the botched list and he is quite high up on there and people saying how these guys pay for good reviews and followers etc… I didn’t feel comfortable so i cancelled and went with one of the top rated surgeons in istanbul Dr Güray. He told me that Lipo suction would work great on me and a neck lift isn’t required. Dr Gorkem said Lipo wouldn’t be successful on my neck and i require a neck lift which seems to me like they just want more money out of you. I’ve got neck tattoos and Dr gorkem said how none of my neck tattoo would be effected with a neck lift where Dr Güray who i went with told me a neck lift would pull the tattoo up behind my ears which i wouldn’t want!
I would seriously do your research guys before going with Dr Gorkem because they tell you what you want to hear! I believe he probably has done some good surgeries on people but the amount of people saying he’s botched them totally changed my mind! Dig deeper doing research you’ll find a lot and be surprised!!

Service and treatment beyond my wildest expectations!
This is the most difficult review I have ever written, as nothing I could put words would accurately describe the most incredible experience I had with Dr.Gorman and his amazing staff. The DrGorkem experience was all inclusive with surgeries, transportation, and hotel accommodations included in the price. There were no “hidden fees”! I will go into more detail about my experience, but to synopsize my extremely positive journey, I would have to say it was beyond imagination, beyond belief, and beyond my expectations. My entire experience would necessitate “1 million stars to rate my overall experience”. I would not look or consult with any other facial or body rejuvenation clinic other than Dr.Gorkem Atsal Clinic. If you did, you would be wasting your time on inferior treatment with ridiculously inflated prices. I told Dr.Gorkem and his staff they could provide my contact information if someone needed to hear a real evaluation outside of what is written in this review section.
I carefully researched cosmetic and rejuvenation clinics and locations worldwide to find the best surgeon and clinic for my procedures. I researched clinics in the US, South Korea, Mexico, Brazil, and Türkiye. The US and South Korea had prices that were in line with each other and for my particular set of surgeries, they would cost $40-$50,000. Mexico and Brazil were less expensive than the US and South Korea.
My research kept returning me to Turkiye for quality at a fair price. There was a general website that put me in contact with several surgeons. I completed the required preliminary information for the website and waited for any response. I went to sleep at 10 PM and when I awoke there was a WhatsApp message from Yasemin at the Dr. Gorkem Atsal Clinic. The message was sent only three hours after my initial contact! That quick response truly impressed me. I read the message and provided additional information and photos of me for the cost estimate and evaluation for any other services they thought might enhance my goals.
The next message I received from Yasemin and was shortly after 7 AM stating Dr.Gorkem had reviewed my history and photos, and his recommended surgery plan with cost. I was extremely surprised at the very reasonable cost for the surgeries I wanted to do at 1/3 the cost of the US! Keep in mind I am a 70 year old male and nature and physics aged my looks. So this was not just a simplistic set of surgeries I needed to restore my more youthful appearance.
Yasemin was assigned as my primary contact person and she was amazing. First, Yasemin‘s communication was more often in a matter of minutes and not hours like I would’ve expected. Yasemin was truly my personal concierge that was always available. Yasemin scheduled my surgery dates, hotel accommodations, transportation, and even helped me with my Turkish Airlines flights! I honestly had to do nothing other than book my flights and send funds for the surgeries! Yasemin did it all!
I arrived in Istanbul Turkiye the day before my surgery. Yasemin‘s instructions of what to do once I arrived at the airport were detailed, concise, and 100% accurate. The shuttle met me at the airport and within 30 minutes I was at the G hotel which is a very nice, clean, and modern hotel with a nice front desk staff.
The following day, the shuttle picked me up at the G and I met with my first consultant, Nilsu, who was so sweet, and friendly. Nilsu was at my side during the entire hospital registration process which was extremely efficient and fast. When I met with Dr. Gorkem, he was so nice, friendly, welcoming and had a huge smile. Dr. Gorkem made me feel relaxed and special and his evaluation of my surgery needs were very explanative and in terms I could understand. Within 90 minutes, I was in surgery and on my way to my reborn appearance!
The hospital staff was attentive and professional and due to an added surgery to my original plan, I spent three nights at the hospital. The hospital was very clean and everyone was so polite!
I had 4 personal consultants during my hospital stay, Nilsu, Sherri, Assia, and Sahar. They all looked like supermodels and we’re soo nice, caring,,and sweet! They visited me throughout the day and evening. Dr.Gorkem visited me every morning to check my progress, greeting me with a hug and his signature huge smile. Dr. Gorkem had an outstanding kind bedside manner but was professional. Dr. Gorkem was was truly awesome and amazing!
In addition to my facial surgery, I had a hair transplant and dental work. All services coordinated by Dr. Gorkem Atsal Clinic. Talk about one stop shopping! The entireprocess was so smooth!
I want to sincerely thank Dr. Gorham and his entire staff for all their attention, kindness, if you’re making my appearance match my youthful attitude. You are my Istanbul family!
