The hospital
Surgery should take place in a hospital licensed by the Turkish Ministry of Health, with an intensive care unit and an anaesthetist present throughout. New City Clinic works only with licensed partner hospitals and is a Ministry of Health authorised health-tourism agency.
The surgeon
Ask for the name and specialty of the surgeon who will operate. A mommy makeover should be performed by a specialist in plastic, reconstructive and aesthetic surgery. You should meet your surgeon in person before the operation.
A safe plan
- Healthy, non-smoking patient at a stable weight
- Total operating time kept within safe limits; long plans split into two stages
- Blood tests and anaesthesia assessment before surgery
- Clot prevention: early walking, compression and, when indicated, medication
- At least 7–10 days in Istanbul before flying home
Red flags
- A price without a written, itemised quote
- No named surgeon, or meeting the surgeon only on the day of surgery
- Pressure to book quickly or to add procedures
- Very short stays that leave no time for a check-up

Questions about this topic
What happens if there is a complication?
The package includes complication insurance, and your surgeon and coordinator follow you during your stay and remotely after you return.
Is flying after surgery dangerous?
The risk is reduced by waiting until your surgeon clears you, wearing your garment, choosing an aisle seat, walking and drinking water during the flight.
