Yuri’s Experience: Upper Eyelid Blepharoplasty in Istanbul
See Yuri’s pain-free upper eyelid blepharoplasty in Istanbul. Video, review & 5-day post-op results at our clinic. Expert care for international patients.
Hello, I’m Özlem, the international patient coordinator at our plastic surgery clinic in Istanbul, Turkey. I work closely with patients from all over the world, including Yuri, a Russian living in the USA, who recently had an upper eyelid blepharoplasty with us. My job is to ensure every detail is clear and every concern is addressed, so our patients feel comfortable and confident. Yuri’s procedure was done under local anesthesia, and we’ve shared his full experience—including the surgery video, his review, and before-and-after footage—on our website. Here’s how it all went, in a way that’s warm, professional, and packed with the details you might be looking for.

Yuri’s Consultation: Addressing Concerns
Yuri first contacted me a few months ago from the USA. He’d been noticing his upper eyelids drooping, which made him look tired despite feeling energetic. During our initial call, he mentioned being nervous about surgery, especially the idea of pain. I explained how our surgeon performs upper eyelid blepharoplasty under local anesthesia, keeping it comfortable and straightforward. We discussed the process—removing excess skin and fat to lift and brighten the eyes—and I shared some examples of past results. After thinking it over, Yuri booked his trip to Istanbul.
The Procedure: Comfortable and Calm
When Yuri arrived, I welcomed him to our clinic and made sure he felt settled. He brought headphones and a playlist, which he planned to listen to during the surgery. Our surgeon went over the steps again: a small incision along the eyelid crease, precise removal of excess tissue, and a quick closure. The whole procedure, done under local anesthesia, took about an hour. You can watch it all in the video on our website—Yuri stayed relaxed, listening to his music, while our surgeon worked. Afterward, he was surprised at how easy it felt, with no pain during the process, just as I’d promised.
Results at 5 Days Post-Op: A Visible Difference
We documented Yuri’s transformation with before-and-after photos and videos, also available on our site. Before surgery, his eyelids sagged noticeably. By day five post-op, his eyes were brighter and more open, even with some minor swelling still fading. In his review video, he said it was much less uncomfortable than he’d expected and that he was already happy with the change. The quick recovery and natural results are why so many patients choose us.
Why Our Clinic Stands Out
Yuri’s upper eyelid blepharoplasty reflects what we offer: expert care, advanced techniques, and a personal touch. Our surgeon specializes in this procedure, ensuring precision and minimal downtime. Local anesthesia keeps it pain-free, and our team supports you every step of the way. For patients like Yuri, traveling from the USA or elsewhere, we make the experience seamless, from consultation to follow-up.
