Tale of Two Friends: Dany's Breast Augmentation
Dany's breast augmentation journey with Dr. CBS in Istanbul: from initial doubts to a life-changing experience, blending expert care with Turkish adventure
Some decisions take time to mature. For Dany, an Australian woman considering breast augmentation, the journey from initial inquiry to actual surgery spanned nearly a year – and brought unexpected perspectives along the way.
The Nine-Month Pause
When Dany first contacted Dr. CBS's clinic in Istanbul on New Year's Day 2023, it was through a recommendation from her doctor friend. She sent her photos and inquired about breast implant surgery, but after receiving initial feedback, she disappeared for nine months. Like many patients considering cosmetic surgery abroad, Dany needed time to process her decision.
Two Friends, One Decision
What changed after nine months? Dany's friend Tara entered the picture. Having someone to share the experience with shifted the dynamic entirely. Together, they researched, asked questions, and finally scheduled a video consultation with Dr. CBS in November 2023. Their shared anxiety turned into shared excitement as they booked their surgeries for February 2024.
The Medical Tourist Experience
Landing in Istanbul on February 20, 2024, Dany and Tara experienced the unique position of being both tourists and patients. Their face-to-face consultation with Dr. CBS that same day focused on the technical aspects: implant sizes, shapes, and placement options. The doctor's collaborative approach to decision-making helped them feel in control of their choices while benefiting from his expertise.
Recovery and Exploration
Post-surgery care took an interesting turn. After their successful procedures and initial recovery period, Dr. CBS gave them an unexpected green light: permission to visit Cappadocia. This ancient region in central Turkey, famous for its otherworldly landscapes, became their recovery retreat for five days.
The Gift That Sparked Joy
Perhaps the most telling moment of their journey came during their final check-up. Among the serious medical discussions and recovery evaluations, Dany and Tara presented Dr. CBS with a uniquely appropriate souvenir from Cappadocia: a coffee cup decorated with breasts. This moment of levity perfectly captured their journey – professional medical care blended with personal connections and cultural experiences.
Beyond the Surgery
Their story illustrates a modern approach to medical tourism: combining high-quality surgical care with the opportunity to experience a new culture. While the surgery was performed in Istanbul, their recovery included both medical check-ups and explorations of Turkey's historic sites.
The Follow-Up
Technology played a crucial role in their post-return care. Through WhatsApp and video calls, Dr. CBS monitored their recovery process after they returned to Australia. This ongoing connection helped maintain the quality of care across continents.
Looking Forward
What started as a straightforward plan for breast augmentation evolved into something more comprehensive. Dany and Tara's experience demonstrates how medical tourism can offer more than just surgical procedures – it can provide an opportunity for personal growth, friendship strengthening, and cultural exploration.
Their promised return to Istanbul, this time purely for pleasure, suggests that their journey had impacts far beyond the physical changes they initially sought.
