Certificate references are shown so you can verify them with the issuing body.
A clinic is listed here only with a national health tourism authorisation on file. We record the certificate reference, re-check it periodically and show the date of the last check. Partner fees never affect verification, listing or the prices shown.
From the first consultation to the follow-up after you fly home.
International patients can begin by contacting Estetik International remotely and sharing their treatment goals, relevant medical history, photographs or documents when requested. An online consultation may be arranged with a medical coordinator or doctor before travel, together with an initial treatment plan, cost estimate and travel recommendations.
After arriving in Istanbul, patients with applicable packages may be collected by private transfer and taken to their hotel or the clinic. At the Quasar Medical Center, the patient meets the treating team for an in-person consultation. Surgical patients may also undergo blood tests, examinations or other preoperative checks according to the planned procedure.
The doctor confirms the treatment plan before the procedure. After surgery or treatment, patients are monitored by the medical team and receive instructions covering medications, wound or treatment-site care, activity restrictions and follow-up.
Patients travelling internationally normally remain in Istanbul for the postoperative period recommended for their particular procedure and attend any required checks before travelling home. Estetik International states that follow-up communication can continue after the patient returns to their home country.
Estetik International is an aesthetic healthcare group founded in **1999 by plastic surgeon Dr. Bülent Cihantimur**. Its Istanbul facility is located at Quasar Istanbul in the Şişli–Mecidiyeköy area and operates under the official name **Özel Estetik International Tıp Merkezi**. Both Estetik International and Türkiye's Ministry-backed HealthTürkiye platform identify 1999 as the organization's founding year.
The Istanbul center provides a broad range of aesthetic services including facial plastic surgery, breast surgery, body contouring, rhinoplasty, hair transplantation, medical aesthetics, dental aesthetics, male aesthetics and selected reconstructive and regenerative treatments. Its current website organizes services across ten treatment categories and lists surgical as well as non-surgical procedures.
The facility has dedicated clinical areas for surgical procedures, medical aesthetics, hair transplantation and other treatments, with operating-room and treatment-room imagery published by Estetik International. The current official Istanbul page does **not** publish a verified total floor area, operating-theatre count or inpatient-bed count, so these figures should not be added to PlasticSurgeryGate without further documentary verification.
Estetik International has a dedicated international-services operation. Its published patient pathway includes airport transfers, pre-procedure consultation and testing, postoperative monitoring and continued follow-up after the patient returns home. The clinic also offers online consultations and travel/accommodation recommendations before arrival.
Türkiye's official HealthTürkiye platform currently lists the Istanbul medical center and states that it accepts international health travellers, operates across four medical branches and offers services in **12 languages**. HealthTürkiye states that the information on its platform is verified by the Republic of Türkiye Ministry of Health.

Estetik International Istanbul is located in the **Quasar Istanbul complex on Büyükdere Caddesi in Şişli–Mecidiyeköy**, on Istanbul's European side. The clinic is within walking distance of **Mecidiyeköy station**, which provides access to the **M2 and M7 metro lines**, as well as Metrobus and city bus services. The clinic does not operate its own patient car park; paid parking is available in the surrounding area. **Istanbul Airport (IST)** is generally the more convenient of Istanbul's two major airports for this location because both the airport and clinic are on the European side. Road transfer commonly takes around **35–60 minutes**, although Istanbul traffic can substantially increase journey times. **Sabiha Gökçen International Airport (SAW)** is on the Asian side. Driving to the clinic generally takes around **45–75 minutes**, depending on traffic and the Bosphorus crossing. The surrounding Mecidiyeköy–Şişli area is a dense central business and residential district with hotels, restaurants, shopping centers and extensive public-transport connections. Patients immediately before or after surgery should follow their clinic's transport recommendations rather than relying on public transport.
Its official Turkish name is **Özel Estetik International Tıp Merkezi**, meaning Private Estetik International Medical Center. Estetik International's English website uses “Istanbul Quasar Hospital” in some places, but HealthTürkiye classifies the Istanbul institution under its official medical-center name.
Estetik International was founded in **1999** by plastic surgeon Dr. Bülent Cihantimur.
