Planning Your Trip to Turkey

It is important to know exactly which documents are required to enter Turkey. If you plan to stay for an extended period and your current visa does not allow it, we can assist you in obtaining an e-visa, regular visa, or residence permit. For detailed guidance, please visit our Visa Application page.

We also strongly recommend booking your flight tickets in advance to avoid the risk of missing your surgery date due to limited availability.

Upon your arrival in Istanbul, our team will personally welcome you at the airport and transfer you to your 5-star hotel for a well-deserved rest. The following day, you will enjoy a guided city tour, exploring the beauty of Istanbul, tasting authentic local cuisine, and visiting some of the city’s most iconic landmarks.

Physical Examination, X-ray, Blood Tests, and Hospitalization

A private driver will take you to the hospital for the essential pre-operative tests required to confirm your eligibility for surgery. These tests include an X-ray and blood analysis, with results typically available the same day or by the following day.

After the tests, you will have an in-person consultation with your doctor. During this meeting, the doctor will explain in detail:

  • The surgical procedure,

  • The duration of your hospital stay,

  • The importance of post-operative care,

  • The estimated height increase achievable, based on your X-ray results and physical examination.

Once all pre-surgical steps are complete, you will be asked to sign a consent form on the day of surgery. After providing your consent, you will proceed with the operation.

Following surgery, you will remain in the hospital for approximately 5 days. During this time, a dedicated caretaker will be available to assist you with your needs, ensuring comfort and support throughout your initial recovery.
