    Frequently Asked Questions

    How much does plastic surgery in Istanbul cost compared with Miami?+
    Miami patients typically pay a fraction of local self-pay prices. Indicative all-inclusive figures: rhinoplasty from $3,500, breast augmentation from $4,500, BBL from $5,500, facelift from $7,000, mommy makeover from $9,500 — each covering surgery, anaesthesia, hospital stay, transfers and aftercare, compared with South Florida body-contouring clinics where surgeon, anaesthesia and facility fees are billed separately.
    Is surgery in Istanbul safe for Miami patients?+
    Prof. Dr. Karaaltın operates exclusively in JCI-accredited hospitals — the same international accreditation body that certifies leading US hospitals. He is triple board-certified and an EBOPRAS Fellow, and all implants and devices are FDA-approved brands.
    How long should Miami patients plan to stay?+
    Five to ten days depending on the procedure: pre-operative consultation and workup, surgery, recovery checks and a final clearance appointment before your return flight from Miami International (MIA) & Fort Lauderdale (FLL).
    Who handles follow-up once I'm home?+
    You receive a full operative report, imaging and an aftercare protocol for your Miami physician, plus scheduled video follow-ups in your time zone and 24/7 WhatsApp access to the clinical team.
    Can I combine procedures in one trip?+
    Frequently, yes. Safe combinations — mommy makeover, rhinoplasty with chin refinement, facelift with eyelid surgery — are planned during consultation based on operating time, blood loss and your medical history.
    Do you offer a consultation before I fly from Miami?+
    Yes. A free video consultation with photo analysis takes place before you commit to any travel, and you receive a written surgical plan and fixed quote afterwards.
