Temporal Lift: Upper Face Rejuvenation
Temporal lift surgery creates a refreshed upper facial appearance through hidden incisions in the temple area. This procedure elevates the outer eyebrows, eye corners, and upper cheeks using an upward-outward vector, providing natural-looking rejuvenation.


Temporal Lift Center in Turkey
Dr. CBS performs temporal lift procedures in Istanbul, Turkey (Türkiye). This minimally invasive surgery offers effective upper face enhancement through concealed incisions, with natural-looking results and minimal downtime.
Upper Face Enhancement Surgery
Many people seek improvement in their brow position and eye corner appearance.
Aging often affects the lateral brow area and outer eye corners first, creating a tired or aged appearance. Temporal lift addresses these concerns through minimal incisions hidden within the hairline, offering natural elevation of multiple facial areas.

What is Temporal Lift Surgery?
Temporal lift is a surgical procedure that elevates the outer portion of the eyebrows, corner of the eyes, and upper cheeks through small incisions concealed within the temple hair. Using an oblique lifting vector, this technique creates natural improvement in multiple areas while avoiding visible scars. The procedure typically takes 1-2 hours and can be performed under local anesthesia. Temporal lift is also one of the midface lift and cheek lift techniques.

A Personal Note from Dr. CBS: Temporal Lift Surgery in Istanbul
Dr. CBS shares insights on temporal lift surgery, focusing on natural results and minimal recovery.
Temporal lift offers significant improvement through minimal intervention. Using carefully placed incisions within the hairline, we can achieve natural elevation of the outer brows, eye corners, and upper cheeks. It's important to understand that some temporary skin irregularities are normal during the first few weeks of healing. These resolve naturally as tissues settle, revealing the final, refreshed result. The procedure's strength lies in its ability to create noticeable improvement while maintaining natural-looking results.

Five stars all the way Long story but here I go… I had been unhappy with my neck for the last 10 years. No solution except for surgery (a neck-lift) But in my mind, surgery is not to be taken lightly. I did my research on neck-lift surgery and made the decision with of my wife’s encouragement to move forward. I still had lots of uncertainty. So I wanted a highly skilled doctor with an outstanding reputation to do the surgery. I live in New York City and the cost of a top notch experienced necklift surgeon was 10x more than in Istanbul, Turkey or Bangkok, Thailand. I read many reviews and had several consults with highly rated surgeons in Istanbul and Bangkok looking for one who made me feel comfortable. At this point in the process, after a zoom consultation with Dr Cem, my gut told me Dr. Cem was the surgeon for me. I always trust my gut and once again my gut was RIGHT! AMAZING SURGEON! AMAZING SURGICAL BACKGROUND!AMAZINGLY NICE GUY with an incredible staff! You don’t have to trust me there is plenty on Google and YouTube where many others feel the same way I do. I was made to feel comfortable and in good hands while in Istanbul for my surgery and it’s now five weeks post surgery & I am very happy with the results. my horrible sagging neck is gone and I look at least 10 years younger. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND the DOCTOR! I need to be honest that even though I did all the research and heard what the surgery was like, I struggled the first few days after surgery with the tightness and the wearing of compression garment. It wasn’t about pain because I experienced very little pain. Just tight & uncomfortable. Also as an active person who plays tennis six days a week, I struggled with the downtime needed to heal after the surgery but all in all I am very happy with the results and very happy to recommend Dr. Cem Berkay Sinaci 😀😀😀⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️😀😀😀

I was terrified by the idea of having a rhinoplasty for a long time, but the moment I met my doctor, all my fears disappeared and were replaced with trust. He is incredibly professional while also being so warm and understanding. He explained the entire process in detail, answered all my questions patiently, and truly made me feel special. On the day of the surgery, he and his team provided such a calm and reassuring experience. I am beyond happy with both the results and the care I received throughout this journey. If anyone is hesitant about this, I wholeheartedly recommend consulting him. Simply an amazing doctor <3

Selen Şahin
had a breast enlargement procedure on 14th of June and the least that I can say is that I was very impressed by Dr. Cem, his results, how smooth the whole process was and how lovely his team is (especially Idil who was very supportive throughout this life changing process). This was my first time undergoing surgery so I was very nervous at first, however, after meeting Dr. Cem I felt so much at ease. During our first meeting, he laid down all of our options and we decided together what would be the best one for me (size, profile, etc.). I really appreciate how I didn’t feel pushed into a corner and was impressed by his approach. Dr. Cem is a very passionate, knowledgeable and down to earth surgeon and he definitely made me feel so at ease. The picture below is after only 5 days (breasts are still very swollen) and I am already so happy with the results!!

Thanks to the smiling face and interest shown by the entire team from the moment I met them. I had rhinoplasty, browlift and neck liposuction by Dr Cem Berkay. I got into the surgery very peaceful. You may be anxious about going into surgery. At this point, the professionalism of your doctor is very important. I received answers to all my questions with the realistic way . My recovery process after the surgery was very comfortable thanks to the technique used by Dr Cem .Normally, I have swelling problems very easily, but I almost never had any swelling or bruises(a little of course). Dr Cem Berkay understood all my concerns and answered all my questions sincerely. He is also extremely result oriented. I am writing this review in my 3rd month or surgery and all results settled. You can entrust yourself to Dr Cem Berkay Sınacı Clinic.

As a North American client, I am very impressed with Dr. Cem and his staff. Dr. Cem is an exceptionally skilled and professional plastic surgeon who has exceeded my expectations. After years of research, I can confidently say that you need not look further. With Dr. Cem, you will be in good hands. His attention to detail and overall medical approach are exemplary within the profession. I am immensely grateful for the transformation he has brought to my life. Idil, the international coordinator working alongside Dr. Cem, is truly remarkable. She is hardworking, genuine, and incredibly kind. Always just a text away, Idil consistently addresses and coordinates all needs with professionalism and warmth. I deeply appreciate everything she has done, especially considering the number of clients they manage daily while maintaining such a nurturing demeanor. In summary, the CBS Clinic is a highly professional and highly recommended place.

Arnel Ramic
Wonderful! He is a very good and caring doctor with a very high level of knowledge, aesthetic perspective and skills. A doctor who can perform such difficult surgeries in such a calm and professional manner means that he is very confident in himself. It's a friendly atmosphere where you can stop by for a coffee from time to time. It's a brand! I suggest you catch it before it becomes even more unattainable. Thank you dear Cem Berkay SINACI🙏🏻

Gülşah Başandaç
Dr. Cem Berkay Sınacı is my plastic surgeon whom I have been going to regularly for a long time. I was already going to him for all my minimal procedures such as mesotherapy, botox, lip and facial fillers. 6 months ago, I had double chin liposuction and upper eyelid surgery under local anesthesia. We had face-to-face meetings before the surgery, together we determined a method suitable for my face and age, and I was very pleased with the result. He is a communicative and innovative physician who understands what his patient wants and knows how to make his patient happy with the results. As an anesthesiologist, I entrust both myself and my loved ones to him with peace of mind.

Nebia Peker
I had a great experience with Dr Cem Berkay Sinaci and his team. He was very attentive to what kind of result I wanted, and also offered his best advice from his experience which I appreciated. I am now 6 months post op, and am super happy with my results. I have had 0 problems but I know I can always reach out to the team if a question or concern did arise. I would definitely recommend Dr Cem Berkay Sinaci clinic for your future surgery

Ieva Svara
I still feel young, like 30 years old, and when I looked in the mirror there was another older woman and I knew deep down that I had to change that. Dr. Cem Berkay SINACI and his team more than fulfilled my wish. Today I look the way I feel, young and attractive again, simply sensational. I can highly recommend him to everyone. Many thanks to the whole team, especially to the nice people in Switzerland who looked after me on site.

Anita Müller
Dr. CBS turned my dreams into reality. I had always aspired to have breast implants and upper blepharoplasty, but I was uncertain after consulting with various doctors. However, upon meeting Dr. Cem, he provided comprehensive explanations both before and after the surgeries and took excellent care of me. As I write this message ten days after the procedures, I am feeling extremely grateful. Thank you, Dr. CBS. ♥️♥️♥️

Xhayala Tortos
I found dr Cem on google search for a minimal invasive face rejuvenation, he looked like famous for thread lifts in my search, but I had a deep plane face&neck lift and brow lift at the end. He was very clear on the video consultation and convinced me for a greater operation. I was a little worried in the first days after the operation because of the bruisings and swellings but he and his team were always with me and made me feel safe. Its ben 2 weeks now, I still have some swellings but this is not surprise, he gives you a clear information of the process. Bruisings are gone. I have a young neck after many years now, my forehead is relaxed finally, dont have to raise eyebrows to see. Many thanks dr Cem. Special thanks to his team Emel and Volkan.
