Saving on Rhinoplasty with treatment in Turkey

Rhinoplasty is among the treatments UK patients most often travel abroad to access at a lower cost. Turkey has become one of the world's leading destinations for affordable, high quality medical care. The country combines internationally trained surgeons, more than 30 JCI accredited hospitals and prices a fraction of UK private rates, which is why it now draws over 1.4 million international patients a year.

Privately in the UK, rhinoplasty costs around £7,500 and is rarely available on the NHS. At an accredited clinic in Turkey, the same treatment typically costs about £2,400 all inclusive, a saving of roughly 68%. Prices usually cover consultation, surgery, anaesthesia, one to two nights hospital stay, splint removal, hotel and transfers.

Turkish prices are typically all inclusive of clinic fees, accommodation and airport transfers, while UK private prices usually cover the procedure alone.

Getting to Turkey from the UK

Travelling to Turkey from the UK is straightforward. London to Istanbul takes around 3 hours 50 minutes, with direct flights from most UK airports. Clinics arrange airport pick up and hotel transfers as part of the package.

Most patients plan a trip of seven to ten days for rhinoplasty. Patients can recover in a major city such as Istanbul or by the coast in Antalya, depending on the clinic and procedure. A Dr.Visor coordinator helps arrange flights, accommodation and the clinic schedule, and stays reachable throughout.
