Türkiye’s medical tourism scene is burgeoning, primarily propelled by the rising demand for cosmetic surgeries such as the Mommy Makeover, Brazilian butt lift, tummy tuck, liposuction, rhinoplasty, and breast aesthetics. Distinguished plastic surgeon Dr. Salih Onur Basat notes an increasing trend in these comprehensive procedures, foreseeing an amplified demand into 2024.
Türkiye’s health tourism sector is on an upward trajectory. The EY (Ernst & Young) 2023 Tourism Sector Assessment, issued in November, showcases a sustained increase in the interest in Türkiye’s health tourism, with almost three-quarters of a million visitors in the first half of 2023 seeking health services.
Dr. Salih Onur Basat, a celebrated plastic surgeon in Türkiye, examines the catalysts for Türkiye’s escalating prominence in aesthetic surgeries. “I anticipate that the increasing demand for Brazilian butt lift (BBL), tummy tuck, liposuction, rhinoplasty, and breast aesthetic surgeries in Turkey will persist into 2024.”
Türkiye swiftly consolidating its status as a global epicentre for elective surgery
Dr. Basat observes, “Türkiye has become a global destination for high-quality, affordable elective, reconstructive surgery, thanks to its state-of-the-art facilities and the expertise of our medical professionals.” He emphasises the superior standards of Türkiye’s health infrastructure and its ongoing commitment to enhancing quality with highly skilled medical teams.
A comprehensive approach to postnatal body enhancement
The Mommy Makeover, including breast surgery, tummy tuck, and liposuction, is extremely well-received by international patients. Dr. Basat accentuates its customised approach, tailored to address the specific body changes after childbirth. He advises patients on the criticality of rest and strict adherence to postoperative care for effective recovery. Beyond the Mommy Makeover, Türkiye offers a vast array of cosmetic surgeries, as Dr. Basat points out, including breast aesthetics, BBL, liposuction, tummy tuck, and rhinoplasty.
International patients seeking an all-encompassing surgical experience in Türkiye: select verified clinics
“To achieve desired results, it’s crucial to select a specialised surgeon and have realistic post-operative expectations,” Dr. Basat advises those contemplating surgery in Türkiye. Türkiye’s health tourism sector, aiming for a US$ 20 billion milestone, is underpinned by its advanced health infrastructure and the high expertise of its medical professionals.
As Türkiye continues to emerge as a leader in health tourism, offering cutting-edge cosmetic and medical procedures, it remains a sought-after destination for patients worldwide seeking affordability, quality, and medical expertise.
