Why Turkey for Breast Augmentation?

  • 60–70 % cost savings: Lower clinic overheads, staff salaries and lab costs are passed directly to the patient.
  • Premium implant brands: Leading Istanbul clinics use Mentor (J&J), Motiva or Allergan Natrelle implants — the same brands as UK/US surgeons — at a fraction of Western prices.
  • High-volume expertise: Istanbul's top plastic surgeons perform 400–600 augmentations per year, building deep procedural experience.
  • All-in packages: Unlike the UK where hospital, surgeon and anaesthesiology fees are billed separately, Turkey bundles everything into one transparent price.

Round Silicone Implants

The most popular choice globally. Round implants create upper pole fullness and a classic augmented look. Available in a wide range of profiles (low, moderate, high, extra-high) to match body proportions. Most cost-effective option. Turkey cost: $2,800–$4,500 .

Anatomical (Teardrop) Implants

Shaped to mimic natural breast anatomy — more projection at the lower pole, less at the top. Preferred by patients wanting a subtle, natural result. Require textured surface to prevent rotation. Turkey cost: $3,200–$5,000 .

Motiva Ergonomix (Premium)

A next-generation implant with a smooth, round-to-anatomical shape-shifting design. Used by premium Turkish clinics for patients prioritising the most natural feel and movement. Included in higher-tier packages.

Fat Transfer (Natural Augmentation)

No implants — fat is harvested via liposuction from the abdomen, flanks or thighs and injected into the breasts. Limited size increase (typically 1 cup size) but completely natural results. Ideal for patients wanting subtle enhancement without implants. Turkey cost: $4,000–$7,000 .

What Is Included in a Turkey Breast Augmentation Package?

  • ✔ Pre-op blood tests and cardiology consultation
  • ✔ Surgeon and anaesthesiologist fees
  • ✔ Premium implants (Mentor, Motiva or Allergan — confirm brand before booking)

Choosing Your Implant Size in Turkey

Turkish surgeons use 3D imaging and sizer bras during the pre-op consultation to help you visualise results. Key factors: your existing breast tissue (determines how much support exists), chest width (determines implant diameter), skin elasticity, desired look (subtle / moderate / full) and lifestyle (active patients often prefer profiles that work well during exercise).

NexWell coordinators can share surgeon-specific before/after galleries before you book.

Which implant brands do Turkish clinics use?

Leading Istanbul clinics use Mentor (Johnson & Johnson), Allergan Natrelle, or Motiva Ergonomix — all FDA-cleared and CE-marked devices. Always confirm the brand name in writing before booking.

Is breast augmentation safe in Turkey?

Yes — when performed at a JCI-accredited facility by a board-certified plastic surgeon (member of the Turkish Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery Society). Turkey performs over 100,000 augmentations annually. Complication rates at reputable clinics are consistent with international standards.

How long do I need to stay in Turkey for breast augmentation?

Plan for 6–7 days total : 1 night in hospital, then 4–5 nights in the hotel before flying. The Day 7 post-op check confirms stitches status and fitness to fly. Most patients comfortably manage a short-haul flight on Day 7–8.

What bra size increase can I expect?

Results depend on implant volume, profile and your starting size. Generally: 200–250 cc = approximately 1 cup increase; 300–350 cc = 1.5 cups; 400–450 cc = 2 cups. Your surgeon will recommend a volume based on your chest width and tissue characteristics, not just cup size preference.

Can I combine breast augmentation with a tummy tuck in Turkey?

Yes — the mummy makeover (breast augmentation + abdominoplasty) in a single surgical session is one of Turkey's most requested combination procedures. Packages start from $6,500 all-inclusive. Both procedures are performed under the same general anaesthetic, reducing total recovery time compared to two separate trips.

Implant Placement: Sub-Pectoral vs. Sub-Glandular in Turkish Clinics

The two primary placement planes for breast implants are sub-glandular (above the pectoral muscle) and sub-muscular (behind the muscle). Sub-glandular placement is technically simpler, requires less downtime and suits patients with adequate breast tissue coverage.

Sub-pectoral placement reduces visible implant rippling, lowers capsular contracture rates and produces a more natural upper-pole slope — it is the more widely recommended option for patients with limited natural breast tissue. A third option, the dual-plane technique, partially covers the implant with muscle in the upper portion while allowing the lower pole to sit sub-glandularly.

Turkish breast augmentation surgeons recommend the appropriate plane based on your existing tissue, chest anatomy and implant size during the pre-travel video consultation.

Choosing the Right Implant Size: A Frame-Based Approach

Implant sizing is not simply choosing a cup size — it is a three-dimensional anatomical calculation. Your surgeon measures chest width, existing breast base diameter and tissue quality to establish the maximum implant diameter your anatomy can accommodate safely. Oversized implants beyond anatomical limits cause lateral displacement, bottoming out and accelerated capsular contracture.

Istanbul surgeons typically use intraoperative sizers — temporary implants placed during surgery — to confirm the final size while you are on the operating table before the permanent implant is inserted. This eliminates guesswork and is included in the standard Turkish augmentation procedure.

Bring reference photos to the consultation but understand that the same implant produces different outcomes on different anatomies.

Capsular Contracture: Understanding and Minimising the Risk

Capsular contracture occurs when scar tissue surrounding the implant tightens and hardens, distorting shape and causing discomfort. It affects approximately 10 % of breast augmentation patients long-term. Risk factors include infection, haematoma, implant contamination and textured implants.

Leading Turkish clinics use smooth cohesive gel implants from certified manufacturers — Motiva, Mentor or Sientra — with contamination avoidance protocols during implant handling. Your surgeon should discuss their personal capsular contracture rate (industry standard is under 5 %) and the management plan if it occurs. This conversation should happen before you book travel, not after you arrive at the clinic.

How NexWell Coordinates Your Breast Augmentation in Turkey

NexWell pre-screens breast augmentation surgeons in Istanbul for board certification, annual caseload (minimum 150 augmentations per year), implant brand transparency and JCI-hospital affiliation. Your case manager reviews your photos and proportions before selecting the most suitable surgeon.

Your package includes video pre-consultation focusing on implant selection with your specific surgeon, pre-operative blood tests, 1-night hospital stay, post-operative lymphatic drainage massage, compression bra, hotel accommodation and airport transfers.

NexWell also provides a post-operative letter summarising the implant model, serial number and manufacturer for your home country medical records — a legal requirement in several EU countries for implant traceability.

Financing and Saving for Breast Augmentation in Turkey

Most international patients travelling to Turkey for breast augmentation self-fund the procedure, giving them flexibility in timing that is not available for NHS-funded or insurance-covered procedures.

A practical saving approach is to calculate the total cost of the Turkey trip — procedure, flights, accommodation, pre-operative tests, post-operative garments, and a contingency buffer of around three hundred euros — and set a specific savings goal before booking.

Booking at least eight to ten weeks ahead of a target travel date allows time for consultations, implant selection, and any pre-operative clearance required for patients with medical histories. NexWell offers a interest-free instalment arrangement with a fixed deposit and balance settled one week before treatment, which reduces the full upfront sum needed at the time of booking.

A final note on the patient experience dimension of cost: the value of a procedure is not only its technical outcome but the confidence and quality of information you have going into it.

Patients who receive thorough pre-operative consultations, clear written treatment plans, and structured post-operative follow-up protocols report significantly higher satisfaction scores than those who felt rushed or under-informed — even when the surgical result is technically equivalent.

Budget-minimum packages that deprioritise consultation time and post-operative communication save money at the cost of the patient experience that supports sustained satisfaction months and years after the procedure.
