There is no trace at all, it turned out so beautiful and natural!

I had an eyelid surgery performed by Prof. Dr. Altuğ Çetinkaya, and I am very pleased with the results. To better describe my experience with him, I need to mention a few things about myself: I am very selective and meticulous in everything I do, and even my school and work colleagues often say that working with me is quite difficult, but the results of our work are always excellent.

I am also very selective in choosing friends—while I know a lot of people, I only make a few close friends. And when it comes to determining how well someone can do their job, I am rarely wrong. I share these examples because you need to understand what kind of person would choose a surgeon for something as important and visible as "eyelid surgery," right in the middle of the face, an area that cannot be hidden.

Especially when it comes to the "eye," an organ essential for vision and one that cannot tolerate any mistakes! And consider this: if the appearance of my face is crucial for my professional career, and if even such a surgery requires serious courage, I, of course, didn’t choose a doctor for this surgery without thorough research. I reviewed many doctors, regardless of city limits, within Turkey.

I eliminated many highly successful and well-known plastic surgeons. (I’m not saying this arrogantly— I have the utmost respect for all doctors. I know firsthand how difficult it is to study medicine and specialize in a field, from my close friends who studied medicine with me and who shared many sleepless nights.)

However, I thought it made more sense to choose a doctor who specialized in the "eye" field for an "eyelid surgery" rather than a general plastic surgeon. "Aesthetic surgeons" often perform various surgeries, with a wide range of specialties, and comparing a highly skilled "ophthalmologist" with an "aesthetic surgeon" in eyelid surgery might not be fair. Before visiting Prof. Dr. Altuğ Çetinkaya’s clinic, I already knew how successful and competent he was in his field.

When friends suggested other doctors, I told them, “I wouldn’t have this surgery with anyone other than Dr. Altuğ Çetinkaya. Either I won’t have the surgery, or if Dr. Çetinkaya performs it, I’ll lie on the table.” If Dr. Altuğ Çetinkaya were to read this, I think he would be surprised that I’m saying all of this without even meeting him face-to-face!

Our pre-surgery consultation lasted about 5 minutes. Without asking many questions, I decided to have the surgery immediately because I trusted him completely. During the surgery, I didn’t feel any pain, and he performed such a beautiful surgery that when I compared myself to others who had the same surgery done by other doctors, I felt extremely fortunate.

I am now in the third week post-surgery, and there is no visible scar. The results are so beautiful and natural that even 10 days after the surgery, I attended important business meetings, and no one could tell that I had surgery.

Dr. Altuğ Çetinkaya took such good care of me before, during, and after the surgery that I cannot thank him enough. His assistants, Sultan and Latife, were also very attentive, and I sincerely thank them all.
