Hi could anyone please recommend a liposuction specialist in Turkey, or tell me how to research a reputable one?

Watching this as I want it done too...a friend of mine has had it and passed on their surgrons details but still dithering as I don't want to go alone!

My MLD specialist has seen some horrors (you need MLD post liposuction). Apparently there are some who set up a consultation day in London, those are the reputable ones.

And if something goes wrong, can you afford to stay out there or take out insurance etc?

Stick to having it done in the U.K.

And yes my post was harsh, but if it spares one person going on this absolutely batshit quest to risk their lives for surgery in Turkey, I'll take the shit for it.

Friend works in a big London hospital - they are having to correct more and more botched surgery in patients that have been to Turkey. She's getting very fed up with it!

What's MLD?

I would suggest Lithuania over Turkey.

I went to Nordsesthetics and it's a very well thought of clinic.

To research, join online groups (not here) and Facebook groups

Check the surgeons history (e.g. my surgeon specialised in wound care and had studied in the states).

Lipo isn't a weight loss surgery, takes 6 months to truly see the results, and can leave you with saggy skin if already stretched.

@JustFrustrated Manual Lymphatic Drainage.

Ah. Well that's not essential by any stretch of the imagination. And I had a course after mine. But it's definitely not essential

I feel exactly the same.

It is possible to find reputable surgeons in Turkey, there are Facebook groups that have registers of surgeons, lists of surgeons to avoid.
I had v successful surgery in Turkey, but i spent a very long time researching it and researching more about it.
You need to have the facts and realistic expectations about any surgery.
