Dr. Özhan Çelebiler

I’m a 57 year old female from Texas and did extensive research on plastic surgeons in Texas, the U.S. and globally. I can’t emphasize enough how important it is that your surgeon has experience in deep plane facelifts as most plastic surgeons still practice SMAS facelifts that won’t give you the 10-15 year lasting results that a deep plane facelift will provide. While the deep plane approach is more demanding than SMAS, its success depends on the surgeon’s experience, anatomical knowledge, and innate surgical ability. This is where Dr. Be+ excels and why I ultimately selected him. Dr. Be+ specializes in facial anatomy and what sets him apart from other plastic surgeons is that half of his practice is dedicated to facial paralysis and synkinesis. Deep plane surgeries involve significant manipulation and movement of muscles and the real risk of nerve damage. Dr. Be+’s practice is focused on repairing facial paralysis and nerve damage. This expertise provided me the confidence to travel to Istanbul to get a deep plane facelift with Dr. Be+. Besides feeling safe with Dr. Be+, I could not be happier with my results. Dr. Be+ focuses on natural results that fit your facial anatomy. You can see my photos above that provide before surgery, 1 week after surgery, and 1 month after surgery my results. I have minimal scarring even though I have not started my scar treatments. I also had minimal pain and was able to tour Istanbul to make a vacation out of the trip just a few days after surgery. I enjoyed my experience from my first virtual consultation to my surgery in the most beautiful hospital I have ever seen (Memorial Göztepe Hastanesi), to my follow up appointments. Dr. Be+ is not only a wonderful surgeon, but he is a wonderful person. He cares about his patients and has the best bedside manner. His staff is also accommodating and speaks English. I am so happy with my overall experience, I plan to do a Youtube series detailing the surgery. I will include my research on doctors and range of costs and how I arrived at selecting Dr. Be+. Clearly, getting my procedures in Turkey cost less than what it costs in the U.S. But, even if I were gifted the procedures with the top deep plane doctors in the U.S., I would still choose Dr/ Be+ knowing what I know today.

Throughout my life, I've had over fifteen surgeries over several years, but I've never had an experience like my last surgery with the amazing Dr. Berke and his highly professional team. Today is my seventh day post-surgery, and I can't describe how easy and smooth it was. Everything was perfect and according to plan. My surgery was very complex, and the results are amazing and unexpected. I don't think words of thanks and praise will be enough. His wonderful team were very cooperative, and the doctor works wholeheartedly to help his patients, giving them ample time and being an excellent listener. May God bless Dr. Berke and his team. I recommend this great doctor to everyone. I was so lucky. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart.

Selective neurolysis surgery (smile restoration) a year later My name is Olga. I consulted with Dr. Berke in 2024 because of the synkinesis I had after Ramsay-Hunt syndrome. My asymmetrical smile, which I retained after the illness, was depressing me. Dr. Berke performed a procedure called selective neurolysis (or selective neurotomy). This surgery changed my life: I'm happy and eternally grateful to Dr. Berke. To be more precise, the "selective neurolysis" surgery doesn't eliminate all synkinesis 100 percent, but it does change a lot for the better! I have improvements in my neck and eye area, but most importantly, my smile is now symmetrical again. Dr. Berke is a brilliant surgeon, dedicated to his work. He is professional, honest, and compassionate. I also want to express my special gratitude to Dr. Berke's wonderful team for their professionalism, patience, and respect for their patients. I thoroughly enjoyed my trip to Istanbul, the surgery, and the recovery. . I thank Dr. Berke and his team and wish them health and success.

I would definitely recommend Dr. Berke! I’m 52 and flew from Canada to Turkey for my facelift. I was so ready for a change. After smoking for years, my face showed it – deep marionette lines, wrinkles, and I just looked tired all the time. I had spent countless hours doing online research—looking at review sites, photos, and even running AI comparisons—because I had to be totally confident that I made the absolute right choice. After all my research I knew that Dr. Berke was the right choice. On October 1st, I went all in: deep plane facelift, neck lift, temporal lift, blepharoplasty (eyelid lift), and fat grafting to my cheeks. The transformation is truly impressive and I still look like me – just a better, much younger version! The recovery was also a lot easier than I expected. I felt good enough to go out after just a few days and now at six weeks, my scars are practically invisible. When I look in the mirror, I definitely don’t see 52 anymore - I look at least 10 years younger and since I’ve been home, I’ve received many compliments. He is a genius and I would absolutely 100% recommend Dr. Berke to anybody thinking about getting this done. Thank you so much!. ❤️

I would like to express my deepest gratitude to Dr. Berke Özücer and his team for their exceptional professionalism, kindness, and care throughout my synkinesis surgery. After years of discomfort and facial asymmetry, I finally feel free and confident again. The entire process, from consultation to recovery, was handled with such precision, empathy, and dedication. Dr. Özücer is not only a highly skilled surgeon but also a truly caring person who listens and understands his patients. I highly recommend him to anyone dealing with facial paralysis or synkinesis. Thank you so much for changing my life.
