Assoc. Prof. M.D. Mehmet Altiparmak Reviews

I'm a 68-year-old retired fisherman who spent decades in the sun. My face told every story of every storm. I went to Dr. Mehmet Altiparmak not to look young, but to look less... weathered. He understood this immediately. He performed a very conservative facial rejuvenation, focusing on my deeply creased eyelids and the leathery texture of my skin. He called it 'restoring dignity, not chasing youth.' The recovery at Bodrum Hospital was peaceful, watching the sea from my room. Now, my grandchildren say I look 'well-rested.' I still look like me, just a version that had a good long sleep. That was his true artistry.

Our 8-year-old daughter, Elif, was born with a prominent congenital nevus on her cheek—a large, dark birthmark. Kids can be cruel. We saw Dr. Altiparmak for what we thought would be a simple removal. He explained it was a complex reconstructive puzzle. He didn't just cut it out; he designed a multi-stage procedure using tissue expanders, a concept he drew for us on a napkin! Over several months at Acibadem Bodrum, he gently stretched her healthy skin and meticulously replaced the affected area. The scar is a faint line he says will fade to near invisibility. He gave her back a blank canvas for her smiles. His patience with a frightened child was as remarkable as his surgical skill.

This was no routine appointment. I'm a 42-year-old chef who suffered severe hot oil burns on my neck and lower face in a kitchen accident. The local clinic referred me to Dr. Altiparmak as an emergency reconstructive case. The pain and fear of disfigurement were overwhelming. He met me in the ER, calm and decisive. He explained he needed to act quickly to save skin and function. His emergency surgery involved delicate debridement and advanced grafting techniques. The follow-ups were intensive; he personally changed my dressings, monitored for infection, and started early scar therapy. He didn't just repair skin; he managed my entire healing journey with a fierce dedication. Today, I have mobility and a result that lets me face the world again. He's a true crisis surgeon.

As a 30-year-old professional, my rhinoplasty consultation with Dr. Altiparmak was an exercise in precision psychology. I brought ten reference photos. He dismissed them all and asked me to describe my profile in three words. 'Strong, balanced, mine,' I said. He nodded. His approach was entirely analytical, using 3D imaging to show not just the 'after,' but the structural engineering behind it—airflow, symmetry, support. The surgery at Bodrum Hospital felt like a bespoke craft. The follow-up visits were meticulous; he'd examine the subtlest asymmetries I couldn't even see. He wasn't selling a fantasy; he was solving a geometric and anatomical puzzle specific to my face. The result is profoundly 'me,' just refined. It's functional art.
