Closed Rhinoplasty Kartal

Dr Ozan Seyman I originally had rhinoplasty in 2003 to correct a bad break to my nose. The operation was preformed in Ireland by a Top ENT specialist. About 5 yrs ago I banged the bridge of my nose and over the following couple of years I noticed a gradual collapse on one side and a slight disfigurement. I attended a couple of consultations with the original surgeon and ones he recommended. All of these were reluctant to correct the damage. They never actually gave me any reasons except to say it wasn’t that bad. It was. I decided to start looking foreign to see if I could get help. Turkey was the obvious place to start. I made maybe between 15-20 enquires to various different doctors I could find online,usually via Instagram at first. I did quite a lot of research with various reviews and I eventually narrowed it down to 3 or 4 doctors that seemed to be on a top level. I was very unsure of everything because it was a secondary rhinoplasty that I required and I knew this is a complicated surgery. I did the video WhatsApp consultations with a couple of doctors but I still wasn’t satisfied so I booked a three day round trip to Istanbul to visit the Doctors I had narrowed it down to. One of the clinics I visited while I was there was Dr. Ozan Seyman. I can’t remember how I originally found him but I’d been in contact via WhatsApp with his English speaking assistant Asli. She was brilliant from start to finish. He was my last appointment before I flew home. My appointment with him lasted about an hour. He examined my nose but also my throat and my ears as he said they are all connected. He gave me a throughout examination. We then discussed my expectations. He showed me via a computer image approximately how it would turn out. I found him to be an incredibly nice man above everything else. I returned home the next day and considered the Doctors I had met. After about a week of further research via any review sites I could find,what clinic,google review etc, I decided to go with Dr. Ozan. I contacted Asli and we booked a date. I confirmed my flight booking details and it was done. Roughly 8 weeks later I traveled. On arrival my transfer was relatively smooth and my hotel was nice and clean albeit a little bit isolated but a nice hotel overall. On the morning of operation I was incredibly nervous but between Asli and Dr Ozan I was made to feel completely at ease. The hospital was excellent with superb staff. None of them had any English but that didn’t affect the care I received while I was there. The next day I was returned to hotel to rest and start my recovery. Two days after my rhinoplasty I had a problem with my chest area from which cartilage was taken for support to my nose. I moved suddenly and stretched the the wound. This was completely my own fault. I contacted Asli and she immediately told the Doctor. Within about an hour Dr Ozan called to my hotel to check on me and make sure there was nothing serious. On examination he decided that just to be on the safe side it would be for the best to get me back into hospital the next morning just to check properly. Dr Ozan collected me himself in his own car to bring me the next morning and brought me to theatre to be 100% certain. Turned out everything was fine. A week after my op I attended my final post op check. (There was two in total). I traveled home the next day. It’s been just three weeks since my op and it’s way too early to judge the full outcome of the but from what I can judge it looks good. I can breathe properly from both nostrils and it’s perfectly straight but still quite swollen. I know this will take some months to settle as it was an open rhinoplasty. I was incredibly nervous of an overseas surgery. I researched as best I could but I was never sure if any of the reviews I read were genuine. I’m glad I took the chance and I can say without any hesitation that in my opinion Dr Ozan Seyman is a top surgeon and an absolute gentleman. His assistant,Asli,I can’t praise highly enough. Both their attention to detail and care is second to none and levels above my experience of my first op in Ireland. If and when all my swelling settles and nothing collapses I will be extremely happy with my operation. I don’t normally do reviews,either good nor bad,for anything but I feel this needed to be posted. If I could give a six star rating for Dr Ozan and his team I would.

I would like to sincerely thank Dr Ümit Hardal for his amazing job. I did a rhinoplasty and the nose shape was as I wanted. He is so friendly and professional. I would like also to thank Ms. Basak, the doctor's assistant, for her great help and kindness. The whole team in the hospital were more than amazing. I truly appreciate their kindness and great assistance. I do highly recommend Dr. Ümit Hardal for a successful rhinoplasty.
