Dr. Murat Yaman

He works in aesthetic surgery, which changes the shape of the face or body at the patient’s wish, and in reconstructive surgery, which restores form and function after an injury or an operation.

• Face. Rhinoplasty, including revision surgery that corrects an earlier nose job, upper and lower eyelid surgery, a face and neck lift and chin contouring. He is in our review of revision rhinoplasty surgeons in Turkey.
• Breast. Breast augmentation and lift, breast reconstruction after surgery or injury, nipple and areola correction, and treatment of gynecomastia, enlarged breast tissue in men.
• Body. VASER liposuction, which uses ultrasound to loosen fat before it is removed, abdominoplasty (a tummy tuck) and a body lift.
• Reconstructive surgery and microsurgery. Reconstruction after trauma, hand surgery, operations under a microscope and treatment of chronic wounds that do not heal.

Several of these operations are often combined after childbirth. We cover this in our guide to mommy makeover surgeons in Turkey, where he is among the surgeons we describe.

Eight patients left reviews of him on this page between November 2024 and October 2025. They had breast surgery, a 360-degree tummy and back lift, liposuction with abdominoplasty and other operations. Here is what they mention most often:

• Attention to the patient. A patient who came for a consultation wrote that he listened carefully and gave clear recommendations.
• The team. Patients thank his assistant and the nurses by name, as well as the anesthesiologist and the coordinators.
• Hospital and service. Reviews mention clean rooms close to hotel rooms, interpreters for German and English, and transfers to and from the hospital.
• Results. A breast surgery patient wrote that the result exceeded her expectations. A tummy and back lift patient wrote that the surgery went smoothly.

The before and after photo gallery on this page shows results of his patients. Photos help you see his style, but your result depends on your anatomy, skin and healing. Before surgery he looks at your photos, and the final plan is made after an in-person exam in Istanbul.

1. Send us your photos, your age, your health conditions and the result you want through the contact form.
2. We forward your request to him at Lokman Hekim Istanbul Hospital.
3. You receive his opinion, the treatment plan and the price for your case.
4. We book your dates, the airport transfer and an interpreter, and stay in touch until you are back home.

Our coordination is free: you pay the hospital directly.

Not every patient is a candidate for surgery. Surgery may be postponed if you smoke, have uncontrolled diabetes or high blood pressure, or take blood thinners, because these raise the risk of bleeding and poor healing. After body contouring you will need to stay in Istanbul for follow-up visits. Dr. Yaman tells you the number of days after the exam.
