BREAST ENLARGEMENT SURGERY

BREAST AUGMENTATION

Breast augmentation is one of the most performed aesthetic procedures in the world, helping women achieve the silhouette they desire with safe, proven, and long-lasting results. Whether your goal is to restore volume lost after pregnancy or weight loss, correct asymmetry, or simply enhance your natural proportions, modern breast augmentation techniques offer a highly personalised approach tailored to your body and lifestyle. Turkey has established itself as a leading destination for breast augmentation, combining internationally accredited surgical expertise with premium clinic standards.

Turkey ranks among the top destinations globally for breast augmentation. Turkish plastic surgeons are trained to international standards, many holding memberships with ISAPS and other prestigious bodies. Clinics in Istanbul offer state-of-the-art operating theatres, hospital-grade safety protocols, and a full spectrum of implant options from leading global manufacturers. International patients benefit from comprehensive care packages that include pre-operative assessments, surgery, hospital stay, accommodation coordination, and follow-up — all managed by a dedicated patient coordinator.

WHAT IS BREAST AUGMENTATION? Breast augmentation — medically known as augmentation mammoplasty — is a surgical procedure that increases the size, improves the shape, and enhances the symmetry of the breasts using implants. The procedure is performed under general anaesthesia and typically takes 1 to 2 hours. Implants are placed either under the breast tissue (subglandular), under the pectoral muscle (submuscular), or in a dual-plane position — the choice depends on your anatomy, existing breast tissue, and the desired outcome. Modern implants are available in a wide range of profiles, projections, and sizes — in both round and anatomical (teardrop) shapes — allowing the surgeon to tailor results precisely to each patient. Recovery involves wearing a supportive surgical bra for several weeks, with most patients returning to daily activities within 7–10 days and to physical exercise after 4–6 weeks.

• You are in good general health with no active infections or uncontrolled medical conditions.

    The procedure is performed under general anaesthesia and typically takes 1 to 2 hours.

DOCTOR'S NOTE Breast augmentation is a procedure I find deeply meaningful — not because of the surgery itself, but because of what it represents for the women who choose it. The decision is almost always a personal one, considered carefully and often over a long period of time. My role is to listen, to understand each patient's goals, and to offer an honest, expert opinion on what is achievable and what will truly suit their individual anatomy. I believe that the most beautiful results are those that look and feel completely natural — proportionate, balanced, and in harmony with the rest of the body. I never apply a one-size-fits-all approach. Every implant choice, every incision placement, every surgical decision is made with that specific patient in mind.
