No clinic pays us, and we don’t send readers to anyone. We don’t recommend clinics or surgeons, and our medical sources are public bodies, universities, professional societies and peer‑reviewed journals. When a guide gets something wrong, tell us: we fix it and change the date at the top.
Four things to sort out before you book
Understand the procedure
Plain-language overviews, so a consultation is easier to follow.
Budget the whole trip
The clinic quote plus flights, hotel nights and the extras it leaves out.
Check the surgeon's licence
How to verify it, and how to read reviews and social posts with some suspicion.
Plan travel and recovery time
How long to stay before flying home, and whether to bring someone with you.
From first call to flight home
The trip, step by step
- 01
Consultation and quote
Ask for the quote in writing. A useful one names the surgeon and lists the facility, anaesthesia, follow-up, revision policy, hotel nights and transfers, each on its own line.
What a package should list - 02
Flight and arrival
For a primary rhinoplasty, the usual pattern in Türkiye is to land the day before surgery for blood tests. Where you stay in Istanbul decides how long each clinic trip takes.
Europe or Asia side - 03
Surgery day
The day itself is the clinic’s to run. Settle the rest before you fly: who collects you afterwards, whether the first night is in hospital or at the hotel, and a phone number that answers at night.
Questions to ask the clinic - 04
The first week
After rhinoplasty in Türkiye the splint usually comes off around day 7. Some swelling can stay in the tip of the nose long after you are home.
Recovery week by week - 05
Flying home
The NHS advises against flying for 7 to 10 days after facial cosmetic surgery, so build that into the stay before you book the return. Take your operation notes home for your own doctor.

How this site works
How the guides are made
Nose & Beyond covers the practical side of travelling for a facial aesthetic procedure, from what the trip costs to how to judge a clinic before you commit. It does not recommend clinics or surgeons, and it cannot tell you which procedure suits you.
Guides are written by Nora Whitfield, a pen name. Each one lists its sources and shows when it was last updated. If something is wrong or out of date, tell us.
