Dr. Omer Refik Ozerdem Plastic Surgery Reviews 29

Honest and professional surgeon!

No one can make everyone happy, and as a result, the more patients a doctor has, the lower their ratings tend to be. This creates a misleading impression for other patients seeking experienced healthcare providers. Consequently, many patients can be negatively affected by this illogical rating system. Some people demand refunds, and when their requests are denied, they threaten to leave negative reviews online. They often use various platforms, such as Trustpilot, to further their agendas. Unfortunately, these websites do little to protect individuals' rights and often serve those who wish to harm others for financial gain or competitive reasons.

Initially I was very pleased with my results , however 2 years later my face has dropped considerably and my neck is showing signs of when I first arrived in Antalya . Most positive reviews are within a month if surgery when our faces are at their optimum after surgery. Unfortunately once the face fully heals you then see the flaws . My upper Bleph I can see obvious incision marks & folding of the skin I also have noticeable face symmetrical issues and my neck is really starting to loose laxity .

In 2023, I had 6 surgical procedures with Professor Ozerdem. Two of them were revisions due to poor results. During the initial consultation process, there were some red flags, which I ignored, partly due to naivete, but in general, the staff were great, helpful and did their best to ensure I had a good experience.
After I left Turkey and tried to contact them about questions and issues I was having, things changed dramatically. Despite multiple requests, I was not allowed any access to Professor Ozderdem, which meant I didn’t get the correct post-care advice needed. I discovered fibrosis on my stomach and when I asked why (no mention of anything being done to my stomach in the surgical notes or consultations), I was eventually told that fat had been harvested from my stomach for a facial fat transfer. No advice on how to minimise the fibrosis or deal with scar tissue on my body or face.
When I returned for the revision surgery, staff were astonishingly careless and hostile. After months of refusing any virtual contact with the surgeon, I had lots of questions, and they rushed through these quickly, dismissing many of my valid concerns. I was casually given a half dose of antibiotics and a couple of Voltaren tablets by the assistant, and guess what, 1 week after surgery, I developed an infection and had to have emergency surgery to remove a breast implant.
On their IG account, they stole an image of me post-revision and posted it with an original pre-op photo, trying to claim that my breast augmentation surgery was successful. The post failed to disclose the original surgery had required revision and the revision surgery failed due to infection. No permission was given to use my photos and the post is very deceiving.
I have been left with very sub-par results to my face and body. 15 months post-op, I still can’t wear my hair up in a ponytail due to scarring around my hairline and my face just looks odd. 6 months post revision surgery, I am still waiting for my body to heal and save enough money in order to have further revision surgery to reconstruct my breast.
Yes, I know surgery has risks, but the worst part was the completely unprofessional, reckless and unethical treatment of me by the staff.

I had NOT have my surgery when I went to Professor Omer R. Ozerdem for the first time to have a consultation 7 years ago. I was in holiday in Antalya at that time and visited some doctors to be operated that year. Professor examined my face then asked my concerns and my expectations.
He said that, there was no age-related deformity on my face yet. The small things I pointed can be treated with energy based procedures and botulinum. I was not suitable for operations I wanted. He noted it is still early and it’s beneficiary will be little. He explained it in every details why should I not have the operations yet. The consultation took about 1, 5 hour. His answer surprised me because other surgeons wanted to operate me each procedures I requested from them. To make the story short, I went back him again this year and he operated me this time as I was a good candidate for the surgery. It has been 9 months since the surgery. I can not be happier than this. It is still me, but much fresher and younger. I love my result as I always requested to have natural look. I have also started skin tightening procedures to extend my results.
Thank you Professor Omer Refik Ozerdem for your honesty and operating me with the right surgery when it was the right time for my face.

I flew from the uk for face lift neck lift and my implants removed with uplift. The results go above and beyond my expectations and I can say he has changed my life both physically and mentally
The nurse came every other day after surgery to change any dressings and take photos for the professor and reassured me everything was normal
I stayed at the ramada hotel. The staff couldn’t do enough for me and where very friendly.
I am day 8 and am very pleased with the results. It’s not easy going through such a big operation in another country but I’m so pleased I chose the professor having had botched breast surgery in the uk 12 years ago he has fixed with incredible results something I never though possible

I could not be more pleased with my surgery and care I was given by Dr. Ozerdem, Sofia and all their staff.

I am on day 12 post op and looking and healing wonderfully.

Dr. Ozerdem knew exactly what I needed to improve my facial appearance and he provided amazing results. Looking forward to the next little while when I am fully settled.

I highly recommend Dr. Ozerdem and will promote his amazing talents to all my friends back in Canada.

I had a deep plane facelift plus necklift and other minor surgeries and I couldn't be more happier. I flew from Malta to do the surgery after alot of research that I did. I would recommend Professor Omer Ozerdem to anyone consider doing the surgery.

Very clean place and organized staff. I am happy with my deep -plane face lift, neck lift, blepharoplasty and fat grafting procedures. I received many positive complements about my new look. Thanks to Professor Ozerdem
I highly recommend!

I travelled to Antalya from the UK in June 2023 after doing my research and communicating with some of the Professor’s previous patients. I communicated with the lovely Sofia who arranged my hotel and surgery date etc . I was greeted at the airport by a limo driver who was very pleasant and taken directly to the hospital for all of my pre op checks
Ecg , blood tests , chest X-ray etc
I met the wonderful Irmak who would be my after care nurse for the week . Excellent English and so kind and knowledgeable.
I met the Professor the following morning and he discussed my surgery and concerns.
I was prepped and went to theatre for deep plane facelift, lip lift , neck lift , dermobrasion to smokers lines , endoscopic brow lift and upper blephroplasty.
I was made comfortable after my surgery in my own private room and encouraged walk the same day to reduce dvt risk .
Next day both drains removed and dressing’s reduced and taken to my hotel with Irmak . The Ramada Plaza was fantastic and close to the professors clinic . My sister was in the next room to me and helped me so much . Irmak came daily to check on my wounds and I had my sutures removed on day 8 before flying home . Very slick service, extremely knowledgeable team . I felt that I was in safe hands throughout. My results are fantastic and I will always be grateful to the professor and his team .

After hearing about Professor Omer Refik Ozerdem from another patient I started looking into his qualifications and his work. The patient who’d had multiple facial procedures with the professor was extremely happy with the professor’s work and her results are stunning.
She had done extensive research into the professor’s credentials and was very confident of the professor’s ability and his kind and professional approach.

Before I got to Turkey I had a number of interactions with Sofia, the professor’s coordinator and wife. She’s very helpful, caring and responsive.
I had a Deep Plane Face Lift, Neck Lift, upper and lower Bleph, open brow lift, fat transfer and dermabrasion to my upper lip.

The professor takes time to understand your concerns about your face and talk with you about options for addressing them.

It can be a bit daunting having a surgical procedure in s foreign country. However the professor and his team really did so much to make me feel more comfortable.

His nurse Irmak came to pick us up from our hotel and took me to hospital. She speaks excellent English and just has the most caring nature.
She is there when you wake up. After the hospital she takes you back to the hotel and settles you in, explaining all the meds and after care.

The first two days are a bit tough… not going to lie… but after that it’s all just uncomfortable as opposed to pain.

Irmak the lovely nurse came several more times before we flew out to check and care for wounds. She really is so lovely.

We spent a month travelling through Turkey but Sofia was only ever a message away. If we had questions about medications or the condition of the wound Sofia would send our photos to the Professor and he would assess then provide advice as to what should happen.

The only thing I would mention is that if you need codeine pain relief, bring it from your own country because it can be tricky to get. Similarly if you need medication to manage post surgery anxiety, it is not easy to get.

I’m saying this, Sofia was very helpful and make an appointment for me to see the psychiatrist in the hospital who wrote me a script for it.

I’m very happy with my results and very happy with the experience.

He was friendly and helpful throughout the whole process. He took enough care of me and informed me at every stage. I can say that I regret not having met before.

I had a deep plane facelift with other minor surgeries at Dr. Ozerdem's clinic, and I couldn't be happier with the results.

I flew from Dubai to have the procedure done. From my initial consultation to follow-ups, I was impressed by his professionalism and expertise. He took the time to listen to my concerns and provided me with alternative techniques, along with clear explanations of what to expect.

Overall, I would definitely recommend Dr. Omer Ozerdem and his clinic to anyone considering plastic surgery.

I regularly have plastic surgeon procedures and have travelled the world, seeing many different high level surgeons who are experts in the area I was having performed on. My experience over the years has been mainly positive and I do alot of research when choosing the right surgeon. 
I found Dr Omar from glowing feedback of a cosmetic surgery Facebook group.

My experience with Dr Omar far exceeded my expectations! A rarity with my high standards. 
He understood my needs and wants, recommending the best course of action. He also corrected a few small issues from my previous surgeon which I wasn’t aware of. 
The results are amazing, I’m so beyond thrilled!!! He has given me my dream face. 
I have recommended him to my network, friends and anyone who is only looking for only the best.
Sofia his co-orinator was so fantastic! Like Dr Omar she really cares. Sofia has excellent knowledge, always prompt and professional in her communication and very personable. If your a solo traveller like myself, you are not alone as Sofia is there if you have any concerns or questions. 

Overall a 5 star service from start to finish.
Thank you Dr Omar and the whole team for looking after me so well.

I was very nervous looking for the right surgeon for a face/neck lift ‘plus other little procedures’ & then I seen a few people mentioning Prof. Dr. Omer R. Ozerdem, the more I looking into the name the more I became impressed with his work.
From our very first contact to present ‘4.5 months post op’ I’ve been made to feel very comfortable.
Sofia (point of contact) has been & still is amazing with the questions I’ve had.
Trust & experience is a huge factor when looking for a good surgeon & I can say with confidence that Prof. Ozerdem & his team have both. I’m very happy & much more confident after my procedures.

Prof. Dr. Omer Refik Ozerdem far exceeded my expectations. I got a face/neck lift, open brow lift, canthoplasty, upper - lower eye blepharoplasty, lip lift and fat transfer to my lips, temples, nasolabial folds and under eyes. I received dermabrasion around my lip area to address deep smoker's wrinkles.
I also had a breast implant exchange along with a breast lift. My old implants were in my body for 45 years. I am 68 years old. The left had leaked out all of the silicone. Prof. Dr. Omer R. Ozerdem spent hours cleaning/removing the free silicone. My right implant had a grade 4 capsular contracture. While in there, my wonderful and detailed surgeon took a biopsy just in case. (I received a good result of the biopsy BEFORE I went home to the states).
I told him to pick the size of the implant for me keeping in mind my desire to go one size smaller. They are a perfect size. He really listened to me.
He is not just the best plastic surgeon; he is also an artist. There is also a kindness that I felt from him when I first met him. Ego does not drive him.
**I am being told by friends and family that I look like I am in my low 40's!**

Now I will discuss his office manager, Sofia Ozerdem (his wife also) and his nurse and medical assistant and surgical assistant and other office personnel.
I will start with Sofia. It is clear why the Professor/Doctor married her. She is beautiful, a great organizer and office money lady who has a GIANT heart. My stay there was at a 5 star hotel which was arranged to perfection. There was never a glitch with my transportation. They were always there on time to pick me up and take me back.
The 2 redheads in the office - a nurse and a medical assistant- treated me like I was their precious mother or grandmother. The nurse came to see me at the hotel a load of times for my aftercare, which I feel is a great perk. My aftercare instructions were also very helpful when I went home.
The surgical assistant (I am not sure of his title) was wonderful. He was very gentle when removing stitches and such. (He was also very good-looking).
And, finally, the lady who sits behind the desk was kind and attentive.
All in all, I not only left there looking 25 years younger; I also gained a beautiful little family.
Thank you, Professor/Doctor Refik Ozerdem and company!
You are the best!

I regret not looking for his help earlier. Prof. Ozerdem is exceptional not only as a doctor but as a human being. He and his team made me feel so comfortable from start to finish, he even jokes to make you feel better.

I highly recommend this clinic for those who are seeking for professional care and treatment.

I was looking for FUE Treatment (Hair Transplant). I was looking online and came across the Professor in Antalya.
I spoke with the professor and his Team about what I needed. Very professional.
They put me at ease straight away. They Explained everything in depth and gave me a date and time in the clinic for my operation.
I went ahead with the FUE Treatment and all went very well in the chair. They shaved the back of my head, also they shaved around the area that needed the infill of hairs. To get a better result..
I Roughly had 2000 hairs taken from the back of my head and then re inserted back into my bald patch.
There was a care package given after My treatment. Also Clear instructions of what to do next, and How to look after my head for the coming weeks.
It has now been 6 months and I am so pleased with the results. I would not hesitate to recommend the Professor and his Team. Thanks you so much. Darren
