Хочу висловити величезну подяку доктору Алтіндагу за його чудово виконану роботу.Результатом дуже задоволений та безмірно йому за це вдячний! У післяопераційному періоді особливого дискомфорту немає.Найприємніший і хвилюючий момент – це зняття пов'язки, коли ви вперше бачите свій новий змінений носик – захоплення та й годі! Операція проходила під загальною анестезією. Чесно кажучи, я дуже боявся і страшенно переживав з цього приводу. Як з'ясувалося пізніше – даремно! Швидко заснув і швидко прокинувся. Після анестезії почувалася чудово.Ще хочу подякувати перекладачу Джерен,дуже приємна ,та комунікабельна.Також дякую всьому мед.персоналу та співробітникам.
I am so grateful to Dr. cem for the whole experince. My new nose is exactly what I wanted .Natural and suits my sharp arabic facial features.The doctor during the examination sessions gaved me all the time I needed , answered all my questions and takes in consideration what I want . Now , I feel more confident & beautiful . Everyone when they see me notice that something changed in my face but they can't guess I had nose job , Follow-up with the doctor and his assistants is very professional. I recommend Dr. Cem
I recently had my rhinoplasty surgery by Dr Cem Altindag, I am very happy with the result. I really recommend him for any one who needs rhinoplasty. My nose was very big, droopy tip, deviated septum and also asymmetrical shape so my surgery was very complicated. After searching for rhinoplasty surgeon in Turkey on internet I came across Dr Cem. I chose him because he was specialist surgeon for nose and also he had 22 years of experience. When Dr Cem examined my nose he understood all my problems immediately. After my surgery everything was going very well. Now it a month my nose looks very natural even though it still swells, but the shape of my nose is very good looking and it suits my face. I am one of his happy patients and I wish him and all his team best of luck.
That was the best experience what I could imagine.
The whole trip was nice organised.
From the first steps till the last everything was more then good.
The doctor did an extremly nice shaped nose what is perfectly fitting for my face.He was listening for all my wishes but he kept being honest and realistic with me since the first time.
He literally changed my life with his work.
Extra huge thanks for Dr.Mohammed who was answering my questions and helping me on the way.
If you are thinking about a nosejob I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Dr.Cem Altindag and his team
