Board-certified surgeons. JCI-accredited hospitals. Physician-led coordination from first enquiry through discharge and GP documentation. Surgery in 2–3 weeks.
Rhinoplasty, commonly known as a nose job, is one of the most commonly performed plastic surgery procedures worldwide. Istanbul has become a leading destination for rhinoplasty, combining highly experienced surgeons, internationally accredited hospitals, and significantly lower costs compared to UK private clinics.
Ocean Health & Travel coordinates rhinoplasty procedures at JCI-accredited hospitals in Istanbul. We are a medical coordination service — not a medical provider. All clinical decisions rest with your treating surgeon and the hospital team.
Rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure performed under general anaesthesia to reshape the nose. It can address both aesthetic concerns (shape, size, symmetry) and functional issues (breathing difficulties, deviated septum). The procedure typically takes 2–3 hours, with most patients staying in Istanbul for 7–10 days post-operatively before flying home.
Most patients experience significant swelling and bruising for the first 1–2 weeks. A splint is typically worn for 7–10 days. The majority of visible swelling subsides within 4–6 weeks, though final results may take up to 12 months to fully develop as residual swelling resolves.
Rhinoplasty at UK private clinics typically costs between £7,000 and £12,000, depending on the surgeon, clinic, and complexity of the procedure. The same procedure at JCI-accredited hospitals in Istanbul starts from £3,200 — a saving of up to 55%. This price differential is driven by lower operating costs in Turkey, not by differences in surgical quality or hospital standards at accredited facilities.
