Booking a consultation with Dr. Yalçın Yontar
If you are considering treatment with Dr. Yalçın Yontar, a plastic surgeon based in Kayseri, Türkiye, who practises at Memorial Hospital Group, Ankara, the first step is a consultation. Below you will find how to request one, how the appointment works, what to bring and the questions worth asking Dr. Yontar in person.
The procedures listed for Dr. Yontar include Rhinoplasty, Chin Augmentation, BBL, Breast Fat Transfer and Liposuction. Each is described further down with typical operating time, hospital stay and recovery, so you can plan your trip around the consultation.
Going to a consultation does not commit you to surgery. It is where a surgeon examines you, tells you honestly whether the treatment suits you, and explains the alternatives, the risks and what recovery involves.
How to book an appointment with Dr. Yalçın Yontar
Step 1: Decide what you want to discuss
Write down the procedure or concern you want to raise (for example, rhinoplasty), what you hope to change and roughly when you could travel to Kayseri. A clear goal makes the consultation far more useful.
Step 2: Send a consultation request
Use the consultation request form and mention Dr. Yalçın Yontar in your message. Give the procedure, your preferred city and your timeframe. It takes a few minutes and does not commit you to anything.
Step 3: Add your medical details
The form has space for your age, height and weight, the medications you take, medical conditions and any previous surgery. Have clear, well-lit photographs of the area ready too — surgeons use them to judge whether a treatment is realistic before you travel.
Step 4: We come back with options
We check your request against the profiles we hold and the other providers that match what you are looking for, then reply with options. We are not a clinical service: nothing we send is a diagnosis or a treatment plan, and a request is not a booking.
Step 5: Agree the details in writing
Before you book flights, ask whether Dr. Yontar can review your photographs and medical history in advance, and in which language the consultation will be held. Confirm the date, the address and any consultation fee in writing.
Step 6: Attend your in-person consultation
Dr. Yontar examines you at Memorial Hospital Group, Ankara, confirms whether the procedure suits you and explains the risks, the recovery and the full cost. Take time to think it over before you agree to surgery or pay a deposit.

The more a surgeon knows before you meet, the more useful the consultation. Gather these before your appointment:
- A short summary of your medical history, including long-term conditions and anything treated in the past year
- A list of every medication and supplement you take — including blood thinners, hormone treatment and weight-loss injections
- Details of any previous surgery on the same area, with dates and operation notes if you have them
- Recent photographs of the area, taken in good light from the front and both sides
- Your height and weight, and whether you smoke or vape
- Your goals, written in a sentence or two, and anything you do not want changed
- Your travel window and how long you could stay in Türkiye
- Your questions, written down so none are forgotten on the day
- Contact details for anyone travelling with you
Be open about smoking, weight changes and any medication, even if it seems unrelated. These affect healing and anaesthesia, and a surgeon can only plan safely with the full picture.

Checking Dr. Yontar's credentials

It is worth checking any surgeon yourself before you pay a deposit.

The UK and Turkish plastic surgery societies also publish joint guidance for patients travelling for surgery.
Consultation fees, quotes and deposits
Consultation fees, treatment prices and deposit terms are set by each practice. Before your appointment, ask Dr. Yontar's practice whether there is a consultation fee and what it covers.
A reliable quote is written and itemised: the surgeon's fee, hospital and anaesthesia costs, nights in hospital, compression garments, medication, follow-up visits and transfers. Ask what is not included as well as what is.
Treat any price given before an examination as provisional. The final plan, and the final price, depend on what the surgeon finds when they examine you. The UK's NHS advises against paying for treatment at a hospital you have never seen, so keep deposits refundable where you can.

Which procedures does Dr. Yalçın Yontar perform, and how experienced are they with mine?
The procedures listed for Dr. Yalçın Yontar include Rhinoplasty, Chin Augmentation, BBL, Breast Fat Transfer and Liposuction. A listing does not show how often a procedure is performed.

Can I see before-and-after photos of Dr. Yontar's patients?
Ask Dr. Yontar's practice for further examples of patients whose anatomy, age and goals are similar to yours, for example after rhinoplasty, photographed from the same angles and in the same light before and after. Photographs show what has been achieved for other people; they cannot predict or promise your result, which depends on your anatomy, your healing and the plan agreed at consultation.
Can I have an online consultation with Dr. Yontar before travelling?
You can send photographs and your medical history with a consultation request, which lets the practice give an initial view and plan your visit. Whether Dr. Yontar offers a video consultation is for the practice to confirm. A remote review helps with planning, but surgery should only be agreed after Dr. Yontar has examined you in person. Ask which languages Dr. Yontar consults in, and whether an interpreter can join.
What should I ask Dr. Yontar at my consultation about rhinoplasty?
For rhinoplasty, ask whether your breathing will be assessed, whether an open or closed technique is planned and why, and how your skin thickness may affect the result. Also ask whether Dr. Yontar will personally perform the whole operation, who gives the anaesthetic, what the price includes and excludes, and what happens — and who pays — if a revision or complication occurs. Write your questions down beforehand and ask for the key answers in writing. Use our questions-before-paying worksheet.

What happens if I have a complication after returning home?
Before you travel, agree with Dr. Yontar's practice how follow-up works once you are home: who reviews your recovery, whether photographs or video calls are used, and who to contact out of hours. Take your operation notes, medication list and any implant details with you, and register with a local doctor who can examine you. Seek urgent local care for heavy bleeding, fever, chest pain, breathlessness or a swollen calf, and ask in writing what is covered if revision surgery is needed. Warning signs after cosmetic surgery.
