TURKISH PLASTIC SURGERIES POSTPONED DUE TO CORONA

World-famous surgeon Prof. Doctor in Antalya, “In 2020-2021 due to the corona virus is among the non-vital and delayed surgeries, plastic surgery,” he said. Prof. Doctor, explained that “the aesthetic trend is increasing both in the world and in Turkey in general.” was said.

Turkey Medicals member Akdeniz University Faculty of Medicine Department of Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery Faculty Member Prof. Dr. evaluated the interest in plastic surgery in the world and Turkey and the effects of the corona virus epidemic in 2020 in this area.

The trend in plastic surgery in Turkey is similar to that in the world, said Prof. Dr. explained that aesthetic procedures such as fillings, botoxs, rhinoplasty nose lift, Turkey hospital face lift, Turkey breast reduction, abdomen, liposuction are increasing in the world.

.
IT CEASED TO BE SPOKEN IN 2020

But during the corona virus outbreak, plastic surgery ceased to be a situation to talk about, pointed out a professor Dr. “I hope that if there are a little better conditions in the coming period, we will talk about ‘these-these surgeries’. But in our country, we will see the trend about breast, Turkey rhinoplasty nose and plastic surgery better after Covid passes,” he said.

.
THE TREND IN AESTHETICS IS GROWING

In general, plastic surgery is a trend in Turkey as it is all over the world. Dr. said, “after all, some things have been done in order for people to realize their self-confidence and self-care, to be more appreciated, which are aesthetic, cosmetic, surgical procedures or non-surgical procedures in Antalya and Istanbul. Fillings, botoxes, nose, face lift, breast, abdomen, liposuction, such as operations that are on the agenda we all know. Unfortunately, when there is a problem, there are operations that come out in a lot of ways,” he said.

.
MANY SURGERIES DELAYED

“Is it exaggerated ‘ he is asked a bit of both the good and the bad aspect of the professor who pointed out that too much is exaggerated Dr, “because it is natural, a process that attracts people’s attention, the trend is growing in the world and in Turkey. We’re on the line of the world. But in the past period, there has been trouble called Covid. Because this is not a vital situation to protect ourselves and our patients, many hospitals have postponed operations that are not vital, which can be delayed. Plastic surgeries are also my personal opinion, postponed surgeries,” he said.

.
WAIT IF IT’S NOT URGENT

But he also noted that it has psychological dimensions. Dr. in Antalya said: “he has had surgery before, he has had other problems, and if people accept the risk, it can be done again. But during this period, if you do not have a tumor and a very serious problem, if you do not have an emergency boiler, if you do not need a reconstruction, it is useful for people to delay them for a while, at least as much as possible, as I recommend to my own patients. Because in this process, the patient can get Covid, he may have received anesthesia with a Covid problem. At this time, the operation can go well, there is really no reason to deal with other problems,” he said.

.
THERE HAVE BEEN HARD-PRESSED ARRIVALS FROM ABROAD

He noted that they try to perform other Turkish doctor operations by taking precautions as much as possible. Dr. said that there is a lot of interest in Turkish medicine, with the exception of this period from abroad. During this period, too many tumor patients came from abroad, said Prof. Dr.,”the conditions that push the conditions, can not be there, especially the hospital conditions there are going down, we are much more comfortable, the image of the Covid period outside is a little more beautiful and positive progress has raised our image a little more,” was said.

.
IT WILL BRING PROS FOR HEALTH TOURISM

A professor who expressed that they witnessed people coming here by forcing their own conditions Dr. continued:

  • We see patients who come to receive advanced oncological, surgical treatment are pushing their conditions.
    .
  • This will bring us a plus. I hope that after the Covid period, people will increase their interest in our country for surgeries such as aesthetics, tumors and Turkey eye corneal transplants, and I think that our country will be useful for health tourism.
    .
  • We think that this period will hopefully contribute to our country Turkey in a positive way.
