From the first consultation to the follow-up after you fly home.
International patients can contact Biruni University Hospital before travelling and send medical reports, imaging, pathology results and other relevant records for specialist review. The International Patient Center coordinates communication with the appropriate department and can provide a written preliminary medical opinion before travel.
If treatment is considered appropriate, the international patient team helps organize the treatment schedule and expected length of stay. Airport transfers, accommodation, local transport, interpreter services and visa-support documentation can also be coordinated when required.
After arriving in Istanbul, plastic surgery patients attend an in-person consultation with the treating surgeon. The surgeon reviews the proposed procedure, medical history, goals, potential risks and expected recovery. Required laboratory tests, anesthesia assessment or additional investigations are completed before surgery.
Plastic and reconstructive procedures are performed within a large multidisciplinary university hospital with access to operating theatres, intensive care, radiology, laboratory services and other medical specialties if additional assessment is necessary.
After surgery, the patient is monitored according to the procedure and clinical needs. The surgeon determines whether inpatient admission is required and how long the patient should remain in Istanbul before flying home.
Before discharge, patients receive medical documents, medication instructions and information about recovery and warning signs. Biruni states that the same international-patient team can remain available for follow-up communication after the patient returns home.

Biruni University Hospital is located in **Gültepe/Sefaköy in the Küçükçekmece district**, on Istanbul's European side. The hospital is close to the **D100/E-5 corridor** and is approximately a two-minute walk from the **Sefaköy Metrobus stop**, according to the hospital's official directions. This gives patients direct public-transport connections toward central Istanbul and the western districts. **Istanbul Airport (IST)** is generally the more convenient airport for Biruni because both are on the European side. Driving time is commonly around **30–45 minutes outside heavy traffic**, but journeys can take substantially longer at peak times. **Sabiha Gökçen International Airport (SAW)** is on the Asian side and requires a longer cross-city journey, usually involving a Bosphorus crossing or multiple public-transport connections.
