The difference

Gynecomastia involves firm glandular tissue, while chest fat is softer and behaves like fat elsewhere. Many men have a mix, which is why assessment matters.

Why it changes treatment

Fat may respond to liposuction alone, while glandular tissue usually needs excision. Getting the diagnosis right avoids an incomplete result — a surgeon can examine and advise. book a consultation to have your case assessed.

Getting assessed

Because the underlying cause can vary, a medical assessment is the sensible first step before deciding on any procedure.

Frequently Asked Questions

Non-surgical options

Treatments such as Botox, fillers and skin treatments suit early or mild concerns, with little downtime and temporary results.

When surgery fits

Significant sagging or excess skin usually needs a surgical facelift or neck lift for a lasting change; non-surgical options cannot replace this.

How to choose

Matching the treatment to the degree of change wanted is key. An honest assessment prevents disappointment — book a consultation to discuss.

Reading photos well

Look for consistent angles and lighting, results relevant to your starting point, and a range of cases rather than only the best. Our before and after results are shown to set realistic expectations.

Your result is individual

Anatomy, healing and the starting point all shape the outcome, so someone else's result is a guide, not a promise. A surgeon can show you cases relevant to you — book a consultation to discuss.

Healing takes time

Final results appear as swelling settles, often over months. Early photos rarely reflect the final outcome.

What it can include

A plan might combine liposuction, a tummy tuck, arm or thigh work and more, tailored to your body and goals.

Planning and safety

Options

Depending on the scar, options range from topical and laser-based care to regenerative approaches. The right choice depends on the scar's type, age and location.

Setting expectations

Improvement rather than complete removal is the realistic aim for most scars. A practitioner assesses your scar and explains what is achievable — book a consultation to have yours reviewed.

Aftercare

Sun protection and following your practitioner's plan support the best outcome. Some approaches need more than one session.

How it works

Threads are placed to create gentle support and stimulate the skin's own response over time. Results are gradual and subtle rather than dramatic.

Who it suits

It tends to suit people with mild laxity who prefer a non-surgical route. A practitioner assesses whether it fits your goals or whether another option is better — book a consultation to discuss.

What to expect

Downtime is usually limited, with some early tightness. Because it is non-surgical, results are temporary and can be maintained.

How it works

Specialised threads are placed to lift and support areas of mild sagging, also encouraging the skin's natural response over time. Results are subtle rather than dramatic.

Who it suits

It tends to suit those with mild to moderate laxity who are not ready for a surgical facelift. A practitioner assesses whether threads or surgery better fit your goals — book a consultation to discuss.

What to expect

There is usually less downtime than surgery, with some tightness or mild swelling early on. Because it is non-surgical, results are temporary and can be refreshed.

Frequently Asked Questions

Book a consultation to see whether a thread lift suits you.

Non-surgical options

Where the issue is volume loss or texture, non-surgical approaches such as regenerative treatments or carefully placed fillers may help refresh the area.

When surgery fits

Where the concern is excess skin or true under-eye bags, lower eyelid surgery may be more appropriate. Matching the treatment to the cause is key.

How to choose

A careful assessment of what is actually causing your under-eye appearance guides the right option — book a consultation to have yours reviewed.

Frequently Asked Questions

Book a consultation to match the right treatment to your under-eyes.

How it works

The laser treats fractions of the skin at a time, which supports renewal while leaving surrounding tissue to aid healing. It can help with texture, tone and certain types of scarring.

What to expect

Redness and a sandpaper-like feel are common early on and settle over days, depending on the intensity. A practitioner tailors settings to your skin and goals — book a consultation to ask what suits you.

Aftercare

Sun protection, gentle skincare and following your practitioner's advice support the best result. Multiple sessions are sometimes recommended.

Closed rhinoplasty

Incisions are made inside the nostrils, so there is no external scar. It can suit certain cases and may involve less swelling, depending on the work needed.

Open rhinoplasty

A small incision across the columella (between the nostrils) lets the surgeon see and shape the structure directly, which can help with more complex reshaping. The small scar typically becomes inconspicuous.

How surgeons choose

The choice depends on what the nose needs, not on preference alone. Your surgeon recommends the approach that best achieves your goals — book a consultation to discuss yours.

For combined function and shape, see septorhinoplasty; compare on the plastic surgery in Turkey overview.

Frequently Asked Questions

Book a consultation to learn which approach suits your nose.

Why it is more complex

Scar tissue, altered structure and limited cartilage can make revision more demanding. An experienced surgeon assesses what is realistically achievable for your specific nose.

Who is a candidate?

Candidates are unhappy with a previous result or have a functional problem afterwards, and understand that revision has its own limits. Timing also matters — surgeons usually wait until healing from the prior surgery is complete. book a consultation to have your case assessed.

Realistic expectations

Honest goals are essential: revision aims to improve, not always to perfect. A thorough consultation sets out what is possible for you.

Compare rhinoplasty approaches on the plastic surgery in Turkey overview.

Frequently Asked Questions

Book a consultation for an honest assessment of what revision can achieve.

Why combine them

Many people with a deviated septum also want to refine the nose's shape. Doing both together means one recovery and a coordinated plan, rather than two separate operations.

Who is a candidate?

Candidates typically have a breathing issue from a deviated septum plus aesthetic goals. A consultation assesses the airway and the external shape — book a consultation to have both evaluated.

Recovery

Recovery is similar to a standard rhinoplasty: a splint, initial swelling, and gradual refinement over months. Breathing often improves as internal healing progresses.

For purely cosmetic reshaping, see open rhinoplasty; compare on the plastic surgery in Turkey overview.

Frequently Asked Questions

Book a consultation to address both breathing and shape.

What is different

A masculine result generally keeps a straighter profile and stronger structure, avoiding over-reduction. The surgeon plans around your features and, where relevant, breathing.

Who is a candidate?

Men bothered by a bump, width or asymmetry, or who have breathing concerns, are common candidates. A consultation assesses both look and function — book a consultation to have yours reviewed.

Recovery

A splint, initial swelling and bruising, and gradual refinement over months are typical for any rhinoplasty. Full settling of the nasal tip takes time.

If breathing is involved, see septorhinoplasty, or compare on the plastic surgery in Turkey overview.

Frequently Asked Questions

Book a consultation to plan a natural, masculine result.

How it works

The surgeon selectively removes fat to reveal and enhance the natural lines of the abdominal muscles, creating a more athletic contour. It refines existing structure rather than creating muscle.

Who is a candidate?

The best candidates are already relatively lean with good skin tone and realistic goals. It is a sculpting procedure, not a substitute for fitness — book a consultation to see if it fits your body.

Recovery

Compression garments, limited strain early on and a staged return to training are typical. Final definition becomes clearer as swelling settles over the following weeks.

See related body contouring, including liposuction, on the plastic surgery in Turkey overview.

Frequently Asked Questions

Book a consultation to discuss realistic definition for your body.

Who they suit

Candidates often want more lower-leg definition that training has not achieved, or need to correct an imbalance. A consultation assesses your legs and goals — book a consultation to discuss.

How it works

The surgeon places appropriately sized implants through discreet incisions to enhance contour and symmetry, tailored to your proportions.

Recovery

Elevation, limited standing early on and a staged return to activity are typical. Your surgeon provides a specific timeline; the lower leg needs patience during healing.

Assessment comes first

Any mole that changes in size, shape or colour should be assessed by a qualified doctor before removal. Suitable moles can then be removed with a plan appropriate to their type and location.

Common methods

Depending on the mole, a practitioner may use surgical excision or other clinical techniques. The choice affects scarring and whether tissue can be examined, so it is discussed individually — book a consultation to have a mole reviewed.

Aftercare

Keeping the area clean, following wound-care advice and protecting it from sun exposure support a tidy result. Your practitioner will explain what to expect for the specific method used.

See other minor and skin treatments on the plastic surgery in Turkey overview.

Frequently Asked Questions

Book a consultation to have your moles assessed and a plan made.

Common areas

Fillers are used in areas such as the cheeks, lips, under-eye region and folds around the mouth. The right product and placement depend on the area and your goals.

What to expect

Results are visible quickly and develop as any swelling settles. Because most fillers are temporary, the look can be maintained or adjusted over time — book a consultation to plan your treatment.

Safety basics

Use a qualified practitioner in a clinical setting, discuss your history, and follow aftercare. Mild swelling or bruising can occur and usually resolves quickly.

For lips specifically, see lip fillers, or compare options on the plastic surgery in Turkey overview.

Frequently Asked Questions

Book a consultation to discuss the right filler plan for you.

How it works

Small, targeted amounts relax the muscles responsible for dynamic lines such as frown lines or crow's feet. Effects appear over several days and are temporary, so treatment is repeated periodically.

Common areas

Typical areas include the forehead, between the brows and around the eyes. A skilled practitioner tailors placement to your expressions for a natural result rather than a frozen one.

What to expect

The treatment is quick with little downtime. Choose a qualified practitioner, share your medical history, and follow simple aftercare. book a consultation to discuss whether it suits your goals.

Pair it with other non-surgical options such as dermal fillers; see the plastic surgery in Turkey overview.

Frequently Asked Questions

Book a consultation to plan a natural refresh.

How they work

A practitioner places small amounts of filler to shape and support the lips. Results are visible quickly and are not permanent, so they can be adjusted over time.

Keeping it natural

Conservative, gradual enhancement tends to look best. An experienced injector assesses proportion and symmetry rather than simply adding volume — book a consultation to discuss the look you want.

Safety basics

Choose a qualified practitioner in a proper clinical setting, discuss your medical history, and follow aftercare. Mild swelling or bruising can occur and usually settles quickly.

Frequently Asked Questions

Book a consultation to plan a natural result.

How it works

Depending on your anatomy, the surgeon adjusts the outer eye corner and supporting tissues to refine shape and position. The aim is a natural, rested look.

Who is a candidate?

Candidates usually want subtle reshaping rather than a dramatic change, and have realistic expectations for this sensitive area. A careful consultation is essential — book a consultation to have your eyes assessed.

Recovery

Swelling and bruising around the eyes are normal early on and ease over the following weeks. Your surgeon will give specific aftercare for this delicate region.

You may also consider eyelid surgery; see the plastic surgery in Turkey overview.

Frequently Asked Questions

Book a consultation to discuss the eye contour you want.

How it works

The surgeon removes a measured amount of the buccal fat pad through a small incision inside the mouth, so there is no external scar. The aim is subtle definition, not hollowing.

Who is a candidate?

People with naturally full lower cheeks and good skin tone tend to be better candidates. Because over-removal can look hollow with age, careful assessment is important — book a consultation to discuss suitability honestly.

Recovery

Mild swelling inside the cheeks and a soft-food period are typical early on. Most people return to routine quickly. Final contour becomes clearer as swelling settles.
