I first had surgery with Dr Zafer in 2025 for tummy tuck Labiaplasty and breast implants first meeting Dr Zafer is absolutely lovely he puts you completely at ease explaining everything thoroughly you are in safe hands. He has very good attention to detail and takes the upmost pride in his work. after the first surgery I got an infection in my belly button no fault of anyone just something that can happen with any type of surgery. Due to the infection my belly button scar was quite big so Dr Zafer invited me back for FREE revision surgery I also wanted bigger implants but after been explained to I could see why bigger implants wouldn’t work for my body and I agreed to have lipo and fat transfer to boobs. I am so happy I made that choice and absolutely love my new results just returned home from revision surgery and everything was fantastic from being collected at the airport the hospital is very clean the hotel is great had everything you need and close to shops. Dr Zafer assistant zeynep is truly incredible the nicest person I have ever met honestly couldn’t do enough for me always on hand if I need anything checks on me regularly took very good care of me as I traveled alone also Dr Zafer nurse again absolutely amazing so attentive and caring I am so happy I chose to use Dr Zafer and his team so happy with my results and will definitely use Dr Zafer again if I was to have more surgery

Excellent experience

From the start the communication was great. I was told exactly the cost & the procedure
I was met at the airport & taken straight to the hospital. I was told ever step of the way how the operation would go. The procedure went well. I was given pain relief so never actually felt pain. When I was checked over I was then transferred to the hotel. Again I was checked on to make sure everything was ok. After a few days I was taken back to the hotel to make sure I was fit to fly
I’ve had constant contact with Dr Zayar until he was happy with my recovery
All in all I’m very happy with my experience

This was my fourth time meeting Dr Zafer, and I’ve now had three surgeries with him, the most recent just over two weeks ago. I’ve also previously met him in London for a consultation. Every time, he makes me feel completely at ease and comfortable. Over the years, he has genuinely helped build my confidence, and I wouldn’t consider going anywhere else. I’ll definitely be returning to him for a rhinoplasty in the future.

I also want to mention Dr Zafer’s coordinator, who has been absolutely lovely. It’s been a real pleasure dealing with her. This experience has been so much better, especially having consistent contact with the same person rather than being passed between different coordinators. She is a real credit to Dr Zafer and the team. Even now, she still checks in on me, making sure I’m okay and recovering well.

The hospital was very clean, and the nurses were all lovely.

The hotel was nice and conveniently located, with a supermarket just a two-minute walk away.

Thank you both for everything.

0 Accountability from Dr Zafer for poor practice

I had Vaser Liposuction by Dr Zafer in Feb 2025, and trusting him has turned out to be the biggest mistake.

The first red flag was when he came into the consultation stinking of cigarettes.

I explained to Dr Zafer how I wanted my flaked targeted, to which he ignored and said he will not take too much off this bc it will look “too feminine”, and then convinced me to have 360 Lipo. I was unsure but stupidly trusted his judgement as he was the surgeon.

Immediately after surgery and looking at myself in the mirror, I knew I would be disappointed with results, as he had given priority all all different areas for the 360 Vaser Lipo, and completely ignored the one and only place I wanted treated.

After months of being gaslit by his beyond incompetent team that results will come and being tossed around from their colleagues, I got absolutely nowhere with them.

Dr Zafer and his team are truly a disgrace, they took no accountability for poor practice. They have left me with such damaged mental health and butchered my body with scars from a procedure I didn’t even want in the first place.

If you are looking for a sign, this is it. AVOID Dr Zafer, and please go with a surgeon who you can trust. Dr Zafer will not listen to you and will not support you.

Excellent

After extensive research, I organised a consultation with Dr Zafer Kaya for a tummy tuck. From the moment I I’m happy I knew I had made the right choice, the level of professionalism and warmth shown to me was instantly
encouraging. Following a thorough consultation with Dr zafer I opted for surgery.
My results have been nothing short of amazing!! Dr zafer is a true artist who is extremely skilled in creating perfect results.
My stomach is now very aesthetically. And I’m very happy with my body. From start to finish, my experience with Dr zafar and all their staff has been nothing short of exemplary. My surgeon, he listened to my desired outcome, gave me professional and appropriate advice, and I can honestly say has exceeded my wildest hopes and dreams!

Imagine a team that takes care of every single detail with incredible precision — from the moment I arrived from America until I was admitted to the hospital. From the very beginning, I felt safe, valued, and truly cared for.

My surgery went amazingly well. Every time I look in the mirror, I see a true work of art. I couldn’t have even dreamed of such a beautiful result. My body, changed by motherhood, has been reshaped with the care and mastery of a sculptor. Words honestly feel insufficient… amazing, amazing, amazing!

Dear Dr. Zafer, you have earned such a special place in my life. Your professionalism, your meticulous approach, your warm smile, and your genuine love for your patients can be felt in every detail. You truly have magic in your hands.

And Zeynep… you are one of the most beautiful pieces of this team. You were by my side every step of the way, handling the entire process with great care and sensitivity. I am deeply grateful for your attention, patience, and support.

I’m so thankful our paths crossed. ✨

I used Dr Zafer Kaya via Medaway to arrange a 360 tummy tuck, liposuction, breast reduction and uplift which took place in December 2025. My surgery was performed by Dr Zafer Kaya. He provided a thorough consultation, listened to my concerns and expectations, and explained the procedure clearly. His approach felt personalised and suited my individual needs. Would definitely recommend Dr Zafer Kaya for his professional expertise and care towards his patients.

Dr Kaya personal assistant is also very helpful and has great communication during and after surgery and ready to answer any questions or concerns you may have.

Why I chose Dr. Zafer

I chose Dr. Zafer for my breast lift with implants after speaking to several surgeons in Turkey, and I can honestly say it was the best decision I could have made.

From the very first contact, Dr. Zafer stood out because of how real and honest he was with me. He took the time to truly listen, managed my expectations clearly, and never overpromised. In fact, he underpromised and overdelivered — and the results speak for themselves.

What meant even more to me was the level of care throughout the entire journey. I was travelling on my own, and both Dr. Zafer and his team made sure I felt supported, safe, and looked after at every stage. Nothing ever felt rushed or dismissive — all my questions were answered, and all my needs were taken care of with kindness and professionalism.

The aftercare was just as impressive as the surgery itself. I felt genuinely cared for, not just like another patient. The whole experience felt personal, reassuring, and incredibly well organised.

If you’re considering surgery and want a surgeon who is honest, highly skilled, and truly puts your wellbeing first, I cannot recommend Dr. Zafer and his team highly enough.

I can’t rate Dr Zafer highly enough!!

I can’t rate Dr Zafer enough! He’s amazing. It was a big risk going to another country to have surgery and I was very nervous. Looked at many surgeons and their work and spoke to lots of people who had had surgery with various surgeons and Dr Zafer was highly recommended. The company I did it through I wouldn’t recommend but as far as for Dr Zafer he is amazing. He explained everything really well, no pressure, I totally trust that he wouldn’t do anything that doesn’t work for you and your body. My scaring is incredible! Can barely see it at all and I suffer with keloid scarring so was not expecting such incredible results!! My first surgery was 2023 and second one was November this year! Aftercare with Dr Zafer is great, he’s checked in on me regularly for both ops and his assistant is always great at responding to any questions and messages. I can’t thank Dr Zafer enough. Such a genuinely lovely human and fantastic surgeon. I’ll be back again for my tummy tuck and no doubt a few other bits as and when I can afford it! Highly recommend!

I had my tummy tuck with Dr Zafer 1 year ago. I was actually recommended by a friend who had her surgery with him before — and I had already seen his name mentioned on many Facebook groups. Still, I was nervous.

During the consultation he explained everything in detail — what I needed, what I didn’t need — and this really settled my mind. His assistant Zeynep was extremely supportive through the whole process and she still replies to me whenever I message.

The result… I am very happy. It genuinely changed my life. Thank you so much.

I had dark circles and wholes under my eyes for years, and Dr. Zafer did an incredible job treating both of my eyes. The results are perfect — I finally look refreshed and confident again! He was professional, caring, and made me feel completely comfortable throughout the process. I can’t thank him enough and would highly recommend Dr. Zafer to anyone considering treatment.

PLEASE DON’T LET YOURSELF IN HIS HANDS. Dr ZAFER DESTROYED MY BODY

PLEASE DON’T GO LET YOURSELF IN HIS HANDS. Dr ZAFER DESTROYED MY BODY

I am writing to express my profound dissatisfaction with the outcome of the surgery I underwent through your facility in Istanbul on 31/10/24.
After sharing photos and discussing my concerns for almost six months with you, you have reported the surgeon has seen the photos and concluded that I indicated for a mini tummy tuck and liposuction from the inner thighs.
I arrived at the hospital the day before the surgery, but Mr. Zafer did not see me until the following morning, just before the scheduled surgery. At that point, he told me that I don't need the surgery that I was there for and was previously agreed upon before I traveled to Turkey.
He proposed a different procedure and gave me only 30 minutes to decide. Feeling pressured and unprepared, I reluctantly agreed. The result has been a large, unnecessary tummy tuck with a lengthy incision extending across my abdomen and around to my hips.
Additionally, there is now a noticeable swelling on my left hip just above the incision that appears through my clothing. I have never looked so bad. I feel like my body has been destroyed. This is clearly evident when comparing the pre and post surgery photos. It hugely affects my appearance and confidence.
I have since consulted with a plastic surgeon here in UK and he was extremely puzzled by the size of the incision. I have also since checked Dr Zafer's website and was horrified that he is actually specialised in breast surgery.
Furthermore, about a month ago, during a video call with Mr. Zafer, he admitted that if the issue doesn't correct, it would be the result of "poor planning" (his words) on his part.
It has now been four months since the surgery, and my condition remains unsatisfactory, requiring further medical intervention. This outcome has caused immense distress, and I am seeking compensation for the inadequate service and the need for corrective
I been asking for a compensation to repair my body and they wanted me to go back to the to the same Dr.. which of course I will not do it, I have to be crazy to go back to the same surgeon.
I can prove pictures before and after surgery, I can t expose myself confidently
... even now after 8 months my issue is still there

Fantastic experience, definitely recommend

Zafer is a wonderful surgeon. Extremely meticulous in his pre surgical preparation to ensure you get the best possible results. My MMO results are phenomenal. He is caring after surgery and the aftercare provided by the Medaway clinic was superb. Would highly recommend.
