What the doctor will need from you

So there are no surprises. This is the usual list for this treatment.

Before you travel

Things to gather at home. Photographs of documents are fine — they do not need to be originals.

  • Photos of your nose from several angles

    Front, both profiles, both three-quarter views and from underneath. The surgeon plans from these before you arrive.

  • A list of every medicine you take

    Blood thinners, diabetes medicine and some supplements change how the operation is planned, and a few have to be paused beforehand.

  • Report from any previous nose surgeryIf you have it

    A revision is a different operation from a first surgery. The surgeon needs to know what was done to the cartilage.

After you arrive in Türkiye

The hospital does these. They are included in your package and usually take one morning.

  • Blood tests

    A blood count, clotting profile, blood sugar, and screening for hepatitis B, hepatitis C and HIV. Standard before any operation, and usually done the morning you arrive.

  • Heart trace (ECG)

    Routine for anyone over forty or with a heart history, and quick to do.

  • Clinical photographs at the hospital

    Taken in fixed lighting from set angles. They are the reference during surgery and afterwards.

  • Examination inside the nose

    To see the septum and the airway. Sometimes breathing needs correcting at the same time as the shape.

  • Anaesthesia assessment

    The anaesthetist meets you before the operation to check your heart, chest and medicines, and to agree the plan with the surgeon.

What the doctor will ask you

Worth thinking about before the consultation. Clear answers here save a day.

  • Is this your first nose surgery, or a correction of an earlier one?
  • Can you breathe equally through both sides?
  • Has your nose ever been broken or injured?
  • Do you have sinus problems or allergies?
  • What exactly would you like changed? Show it on your own photo.
  • Do you smoke? It affects healing more here than almost anywhere else.

You do not have to do this alone

Every patient is different. Once the doctor has read your file they may ask for one or two more things before confirming your plan — that is normal, and it is a sign your case is being looked at properly rather than waved through. If it happens, we tell you exactly what is needed and why, and you will see it added to this list.

If you cannot get a test at home, tell us. Most of them can be done in Türkiye instead, and we will arrange it.
