Dr Safa MANAV, MD, FEBOPRAS Reviews 

I had a mommy makeover with Dr. Safa Manav. He is very kind and understood what I envisioned for my breast augmentation perfectly. He explained his recommendations and made me feel heard and cared for. My body (tummy tuck, lipo, and breast lift with augmentation) looks amazing already and I'm very happy with my results so far. Nurse Buse came to check on me and do massages and change bandages every day and she was so kind and sweet. I would recommend Dr. Safa Manav and his team.

As a man in my mid-50s, I recently underwent a deep plane facelift, temporal lift, neck lift, brow lift, and upper/lower blepharoplasty with Dr. Safa Manav and his team at Safa Manav Aesthetic And Plastic Surgery. I chose Dr. Manav for his well-established reputation in delivering natural-looking, refined, and polished results that enhance rather than alter one’s appearance.
The entire team is exceptionally professional, welcoming, and consistently responsive to questions. Dr. Manav is approachable, compassionate, highly skilled, and a true artist in his craft. He explains every aspect clearly, ensures full understanding of outcomes, and establishes realistic expectations throughout.
I am extremely satisfied with the outstanding care received. The results so far are impressive, natural, and exactly what I hoped for. Dr. Safa Manav and his exceptional team delivered a first-class experience. I wholeheartedly recommend them without reservation. 5 stars.

I had a full deep plane face and neck lift. Nose job and eye lift. Nurse Buse was amazing. She took care of me my entire stay. She came to see me and change bandages, apply medication, and ensure my comfort. I highly recommend her as a nurse to anyone who undergoes plastic surgery.

5 star review not only for the satisfaction of my results but for the service as well. I worked with Elif, she was so friendly and prompt. I had rhinoplasty with Dr. Manav and he listened to exactly what I wanted. I would highly recommend him and his team! If I need anything in the future I would definitely return.

All steps to my process were efficient and smooth. Language barrier was not an issue, coming from Canada. Used whatsapp to communicate all questions, setting up. They gave me a package deal which included hotel, rides, and my procedures. Everyone has been kind and respectful. All the information I needed coming out of surgery was explained, texted, as well as a video explaining things provided on whatsapp.
Still too soon to tell about the healing process, will update in future! Highly recommend this Team!

What an amazing experience with Dr Safa & his team. I was looked after from the moment I arrived. I had full face and neck plane lift, Temple brow lift, upper eyelid surgery, lip lift, and fat transfer. Dr Safar is an amazing surgeon, very professional, and kind person. I will be three months post op next Wednesday and I am so pleased with my results, I never imagined how amazing I could look. He has taken me back 20 years. I now feel so confident and youthful. Elif is one of the coordinators and she’s so lovely and kind. I could not have asked for anything more, the transport the hotel the Hospital everything was first class. Thank you so much. You have truly changed my life. See you all again in June!

My patient coordinators Elif and Belma were amazing throughout, there was great communication answering all the questions and concerns I had. I’m so happy with my results, they’re better than I could have expected for myself and so happy I went with Dr. Safa. Nurse Buse visited me daily, she was so caring and attentive; had great bedside manner. I had not received daily outpatient visits with previous clinics I had been with. The hotel included with my package was lovely, there is an onsite pharmacy and the room service made recovery very easy.
One thing to note is that transfers to and from the clinic were in groups and not private which would have been preferable after surgery but this is the only minor inconvenience I can think of for the whole experience.
My procedure was carried out so well, my scarring is minimal and I did not even require anything stronger than paracetamol.

Dr Safa Manav is a very skilled doctor. I chose him for the second time for my surgery. I am a very satisfied patient otherwise I wouldn't have come back to be operated by him. I am a 61 year old Spaniard and I had a facelift with him and now a breast lift with a small implant. His team is also outstanding and the hotel very comfortable.

Dr. Safa Manav has achieved results beyond my expectations. I'm 56 years old, and I often get asked for ID as proof! Im ecstatic with my results!!

I’m so happy that I chose to do this for myself and that I chose Dr. Manav for my procedure. The experience feels very safe and well organized from start to finish. The hospital and hospital-hotel facilities are top notch and the staff are so helpful and friendly and always only a call or text away. My private room at the hospital was gorgeous and the staff so attentive. Nice back at the recovery hotel I got daily nurse checkups from his amazing nurse, and there are also medical staff on site for any general medical needs during your stay. Truly everything is taken care of.

I spent months researching clinics and doctors before making any decisions, and that process is ultimately what led me to Dr Safa Manav. I’d been told long ago that once you find the right doctor, you should trust their expertise rather than trying to steer everything yourself. That guidance proved true for me, especially because I’m on a long term health and longevity journey. The work I chose to have done was an important step toward feeling healthier and supporting my goals to reduce autoimmune symptoms over time.

From the moment I reached out, Dr Safa’s clinic stood out. I emailed my top three choices with the same questions about pricing, recovery, protocol and general expectations. His team replied almost immediately and kept up steady, thoughtful communication. One of the other clinics responded once, then disappeared, and the third never replied at all. The contrast made my decision clear. It was obvious that Dr Safa runs a very organised and attentive practice, which tells you a lot about his character and the reliability of his entire team.

At first, I assumed the level of service he offered would be outside my budget, but I asked for a quote anyway so I could compare. I was genuinely surprised to find that the quality of care came at an affordable price. That mix of expertise and reasonable cost made the choice even easier, especially knowing it tied directly into my long term wellbeing.

During my stay in Turkey, I met people from several countries who had done the same in depth research and ended up at the same clinic. Every person I spoke with shared the same impression of Dr Safa: confident, capable and professional. His team also deserves special recognition. Belma, Buse and Elif were incredible. I had direct contact with them throughout my entire journey, and any time I had a question, they replied almost immediately. They felt like friends I simply hadn’t met until then, which brought so much comfort during a time when my health was my main focus.

Everyone spoke excellent English, so communication was easy. I enjoyed trying a bit of Turkish for fun, but it definitely wasn’t necessary. From the airport pickup to the clinic visits, the procedure and the aftercare, everything was handled for me. Travelling abroad for medical care can feel overwhelming, but they made the entire experience smooth and stress free.

I only stayed a short time, but I genuinely wished I could have stayed longer. I loved meeting people from all over the world who were also focusing on their wellbeing. The level of care, the warmth of the staff and the friendly environment made a huge difference. It felt welcoming, sincere and very human.

I’ve completed one procedure so far and I’m already planning future visits as part of my ongoing path toward better health (and maybe even for some 'upgrades' over time). I’m deeply grateful to Dr Safa and his whole team for making the experience exceptional and for supporting my wellbeing in such a meaningful way.

From my initial contact and coordination with Belma, my trip to Dr Sava's clinic was very easy and well organised. Elif is incredibly professional, easy to talk and kept me informed every step of the way. Back at the hotel the lovely nurse Buse came to check on me every day after my surgery to change dressings etc. Everything was explained to me thoroughly throughout the whole process.
Dr Sava has a lovely manner, answers any questions and explains things fully. More to the point he is a very experienced surgeon.
I would highly recommend Dr Sava and his brilliant team.

I had my facial rejuvenation surgery with Dr. Safa Manav a few months ago, and I’m very happy with my decision 😊 From the first consultation, he listened carefully to my concerns and explained what kind of results I could realistically expect. His calm and honest approach made me feel completely comfortable.

The surgery and recovery went very smoothly. His team was always available to answer my questions, and the clinic was spotless and well-organized. The swelling and bruising were much less than I expected, and I started to see beautiful, natural results within a few weeks.

Now my face looks fresher and more balanced — people tell me I look rested, not “different.” 🌸 I’m truly thankful to Dr. Safa Manav and his team for their professionalism and kindness. Highly recommend! 💫

Having surgery in your own country can be nerve wracking. Traveling to another country to have surgery is almost unimaginable. From the initial contact and coordination with Belma, to Elif taking over upon arrival, and Buse taking such good care of me after surgery, Dr. Safa and his team have made this experience easier than we could have ever dreamed. I’m only a few days post op and very swollen so I can’t comment on aesthetics yet, but I know that Dr. Sava’s patients don’t leave unhappy. This is a beautiful city and the people are so extremely friendly. Don’t hesitate to book your surgery with Dr. Safa, & be sure to give yourself time to explore this beautiful part of the world.

I felt like I was in safe hands with Safa. I went back and forth on who to go with and I’m still confident I made the right decision. It’s too early for final results (7 days post op) for temporal midface lift, but I opted for Safa as I wanted a natural refreshed look.

The overall service by way of the wider team, transfers, hotel, hospital, etc, were really good 😊. I brought my partner and little one along and we were accommodated as a family, so thank you!

I’m going home happy. Thanks to all, Safa, Fatih, nurse buse, hospital personnel. A special thank you to Elif who was amazing

I’m so glad I picked Dr. Manav as my surgeon— I have zero regrets! I had a neck lift, deep plane lower facelift, endoscopic mid facelift, lateral brow lift, and fat grafting, and couldn’t have asked for a better outcome.

When I first got out of surgery and they took me to the restroom, I caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror and it took my breath away. I looked like an angel! Absolutely gorgeous! (I’m not tooting my own horn here, I’m tooting Dr. Manav’s horn. He’s an artist with a scalpel!). I expected to look 5-10 years younger but he shaved at least 15 years off my face, if not more. (It’s a good thing I got that sneak peak before the swelling set in, too, because by my next bathroom visit, I looked like I’d gone twelve rounds with Mike Tyson. I knew that, under all the puffery, there was something spectacular about to be revealed!).

The placement of his stitches is so absolutely precise, I had a hard time even seeing where I was supposed to be applying the antibiotic ointment. My ears look great (no pixie ears or weird deformities) and the incisions are nearly imperceptible. About ten years ago, I had a ill-advised lower facelift by an LA surgeon that left me with a wonky ear fold that was so embarrassing…Dr. Manav fixed it and now my ear looks totally normal! I can finally wear my hair back again! Yay!

Of course, I’m only a month out and still have a ways to go, but the swelling is going away and I’m already wowed by my results…absolutely thrilled! Dr. Manav is an absolute rock star and a master at his craft. 10/10 would do it again. Highly recommend.

(Oh, I randomly met reviewer Tracy S. and her husband while having breakfast in our hotel and can confirm, she looks absolutely stunning. Dr. Manav did great work on both of us!)

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Beyond 5 Stars!

Dr. Safa Manav met and exceeded all my expectations. I had a deep plane face and neck lift, endoscopic brow lift, fat transfer, and lip lift — and I am beyond thrilled with my results.

Elif, his assistant, spoke perfect English, made me feel completely comfortable, and explained everything clearly. The entire staff — Belma, Boussa, and his surgical nurse — were exceptionally organized, attentive, and kind. I truly enjoyed working with each of them.

If you have any reservations about Dr. Safa Manav or about traveling to Turkey for surgery — don’t! My experience was absolutely perfect from start to finish. I’m already planning to return next year for a few more procedures.

If I could give 100 stars, I would! 😊

What initially seemed too good to be true, turned out to be more than I could have asked for. Dr. Manav and his staff have been kind, efficient, and professional. The initial results of my neck, face, and upper and lower eye lifts are impressive. I highly recommend their services.

From start to finish this experience has been a truly exceptional. Dr. Safa is a master of his craft and has surrounded himself with full team of knowledgeable professionals to enhance and ensure this journey is a wonderful experience.

I had a deep plane facelift and am extremely happy with both the operation and the staff. From the start, Belma was excellent, coordinating with me before my arrival in Turkey, and her responsiveness and knowledge were reassuring. Elif also supported me with anything I needed. Buse, in particular, was a wonderful, caring, and beautiful nurse. The team was outstanding, and the hotel staff were friendly and welcoming.

Doctor Safa Manav performed my surgery with exceptional skill and precision, leaving me amazed even though my face was initially swollen (surprisingly not as much I was expecting). His artistic abilities, along with the excellent care from his staff, surpassed my expectations. Elif helped coordinate my care wonderfully, and the whole experience was informative and worry-free.
