Aesthetic Thigh Surgery
Aesthetic Thigh Surgery
Many people struggle with excess skin and poor contours in their thigh area.
Loose skin and tissue in the thigh area can persist despite diet and exercise, particularly after major weight loss. While liposuction alone can address excess fat, thigh lift surgery is often necessary to remove excess skin and achieve optimal results.

What is Thigh Lift Surgery?
A thigh lift is a surgical procedure that removes excess skin and fat from the thighs to create smoother, better-proportioned leg contours. The surgery addresses the inner thighs. Performed under general anesthesia, the procedure typically takes 2-3 hours and may be combined with liposuction when needed.
Treatable Conditions
Excess skin on inner thighs
Post-weight loss skin laxity

As a dentist, I work in millimeters every single day—precision, detail, and artistry are the foundation of everything I do. Because of that, I had exceptionally high standards when choosing a surgeon for my deep plane face and neck lift, upper blepharoplasty, and temporal brow lift. I can say without hesitation that Dr. Cem Berkay Sinaci exceeded every expectation I had. From the moment I met Dr. Cem, any fears I had completely disappeared. His calm confidence, depth of knowledge, and refined surgical skill were immediately evident. As a fellow healthcare provider, I deeply respect his years of training, experience, and the artistry he brings to his work. I knew right away that I had made the right choice. Before I even arrived in Turkey, I felt fully prepared thanks to his incredible patient coordinator, Özlem. She was always available—day or night—to answer questions, organize every detail, and ensure a seamless experience. Her kindness, responsiveness, and attention to detail made the entire process stress-free from the very beginning. Every step of the journey was flawlessly coordinated—from airport pickup to hotel accommodations to the hospital stay. There was always someone guiding us, anticipating our needs, and ensuring everything ran smoothly. This level of organization is a direct reflection of Özlem’s dedication and professionalism. She truly has a heart of gold. My nurse, Elif, was equally exceptional. She is highly skilled, knowledgeable, and brought such a calming, reassuring presence. She even came to our hotel daily to check on me, which speaks volumes about the level of care provided. I absolutely adore her. As a healthcare provider, I have very high standards when it comes to medical facilities—and the hospital exceeded them all. It was top-tier in every way: efficient, spotless, and staffed with compassionate, professional nurses. I stayed for two nights and was treated with the utmost care. My husband was able to stay with me comfortably, and we were both genuinely impressed with the quality of service. The hotel experience was equally outstanding. It felt like a luxury wellness retreat with integrated medical care. From the café to the stunning rooftop terrace, spa, library, and media room—every detail was thoughtfully designed for comfort and recovery. One of the most unique and comforting aspects is that many guests are also undergoing procedures, so there’s no self-consciousness about being in recovery. The presence of a 24-hour infirmary and nurse-call systems in each room added an extra layer of reassurance. I also have to mention our hotel housekeeper, who was absolutely lovely. Even she made me feel special in the most heartfelt way. She spoke no English, but every day she would call me “princesa” and made sure my husband understood that he was in the presence of a princess as well! It became such a sweet and memorable part of the experience. If I had to summarize this entire journey in one word, it would be “princesa.” I truly received royal treatment and felt incredibly cared for. Now, just 7 days post-op, I am already seeing beautiful results. I have minimal bruising, no pain, and I’m genuinely amazed at how smooth the recovery has been so far. This experience has been nothing short of extraordinary. Choosing to do this for myself was one of the best decisions I’ve made—and finding Dr. Cem, Özlem, and Elif made it truly exceptional. I recommend them wholeheartedly and without hesitation. I would return in a heartbeat—and I already miss them!

I would like to express my deepest gratitude to Dr. Cem and his team for the exceptional care I received during my surgery in Turkey this past January. Every aspect of the experience was managed with remarkable professionalism, attentiveness, and organization, which made me feel well cared for from the very beginning. Ozlem was outstanding throughout the entire process. She was thorough, attentive, and consistently responsive, ensuring that I was never left uncertain about what to expect. I was always given clear guidance regarding where I needed to be, when things would take place, and how each part of the process would unfold. That level of communication and support was invaluable. The hotel accommodations were also excellent. The hotel was clean, comfortable, and welcoming, which made our stay all the more enjoyable and contributed positively to the overall experience. I am now three months post-operative after an upper blepharoplasty, a cheek lift (oka DPVL), and a lip lift, and I could not be more pleased with how beautifully everything has healed. The result is exactly what I had hoped for: I look like a fresher, more youthful version of myself, not like a different person. That balance is incredibly important, and Dr. Cem achieved it beautifully. He is also a gifted communicator who takes the time to understand his patients’ goals with great care. It is clear that he combines technical precision with a genuine artistic eye, and that combination is reflected in the natural, elegant result he delivers. Equally important to me was his honesty regarding recovery. He never overstated or romanticized the healing process, and everything progressed exactly as he had explained. That honesty gave me enormous confidence and made the entire experience feel grounded, trustworthy, and reassuring. I am truly grateful to Dr. Cem, Ozlem, and the entire team for the wonderful care I received and for making what could have felt overwhelming instead feel smooth, thoughtful, and exceptionally well managed. I am very glad I found Dr. Cem, and I confident know without hesitation, who I would return to should I ever decide to have a neck lift in the future. Thank you!

Happy Golucky
Dr CBS without a doubt is one of the most masterful, talented and knowledgeable plastic surgeons in Turkey. He is an artist, he looks at your face and knows everything you need done- better than any surgeon I had consulted- and has the knowledge, skills and expertise to deliver his vision meticulously and to perfection. He does this with passion, care and dedication. What he did for my face was not short of miracle. His whole team were amazing. After care was above and beyond anything I expected. I can not recommend him enough.

Afsaneh
I had a submentoplasty with Dr Cem Berkay three weeks ago, and I couldn't be happier with my experience and results. The procedure was performed in an office setting under local anaesthetic, which made the whole process much calmer and more comfortable than I expected. Dr Berkay did an incredible job—the surgery was flawless, and even with some minor swelling still present, the results are already unbelievable. His assistant, Ozlem, was wonderful from the very beginning—always kind, courteous, and incredibly helpful throughout the entire process. Nurse Volkan was also fantastic, providing reassurance and support during the procedure and making me feel completely at ease. I highly recommend Dr Cem Berkay and his team to anyone considering this procedure. Their professionalism, care, and attention to detail have been exceptional. I could not be happier with the outcome.

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

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.

Dilek Orfa
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.

As a dentist, I work in millimeters every single day—precision, detail, and artistry are the foundation of everything I do. Because of that, I had exceptionally high standards when choosing a surgeon for my deep plane face and neck lift, upper blepharoplasty, and temporal brow lift. I can say without hesitation that Dr. Cem Berkay Sinaci exceeded every expectation I had. From the moment I met Dr. Cem, any fears I had completely disappeared. His calm confidence, depth of knowledge, and refined surgical skill were immediately evident. As a fellow healthcare provider, I deeply respect his years of training, experience, and the artistry he brings to his work. I knew right away that I had made the right choice. Before I even arrived in Turkey, I felt fully prepared thanks to his incredible patient coordinator, Özlem. She was always available—day or night—to answer questions, organize every detail, and ensure a seamless experience. Her kindness, responsiveness, and attention to detail made the entire process stress-free from the very beginning. Every step of the journey was flawlessly coordinated—from airport pickup to hotel accommodations to the hospital stay. There was always someone guiding us, anticipating our needs, and ensuring everything ran smoothly. This level of organization is a direct reflection of Özlem’s dedication and professionalism. She truly has a heart of gold. My nurse, Elif, was equally exceptional. She is highly skilled, knowledgeable, and brought such a calming, reassuring presence. She even came to our hotel daily to check on me, which speaks volumes about the level of care provided. I absolutely adore her. As a healthcare provider, I have very high standards when it comes to medical facilities—and the hospital exceeded them all. It was top-tier in every way: efficient, spotless, and staffed with compassionate, professional nurses. I stayed for two nights and was treated with the utmost care. My husband was able to stay with me comfortably, and we were both genuinely impressed with the quality of service. The hotel experience was equally outstanding. It felt like a luxury wellness retreat with integrated medical care. From the café to the stunning rooftop terrace, spa, library, and media room—every detail was thoughtfully designed for comfort and recovery. One of the most unique and comforting aspects is that many guests are also undergoing procedures, so there’s no self-consciousness about being in recovery. The presence of a 24-hour infirmary and nurse-call systems in each room added an extra layer of reassurance. I also have to mention our hotel housekeeper, who was absolutely lovely. Even she made me feel special in the most heartfelt way. She spoke no English, but every day she would call me “princesa” and made sure my husband understood that he was in the presence of a princess as well! It became such a sweet and memorable part of the experience. If I had to summarize this entire journey in one word, it would be “princesa.” I truly received royal treatment and felt incredibly cared for. Now, just 7 days post-op, I am already seeing beautiful results. I have minimal bruising, no pain, and I’m genuinely amazed at how smooth the recovery has been so far. This experience has been nothing short of extraordinary. Choosing to do this for myself was one of the best decisions I’ve made—and finding Dr. Cem, Özlem, and Elif made it truly exceptional. I recommend them wholeheartedly and without hesitation. I would return in a heartbeat—and I already miss them!

I would like to express my deepest gratitude to Dr. Cem and his team for the exceptional care I received during my surgery in Turkey this past January. Every aspect of the experience was managed with remarkable professionalism, attentiveness, and organization, which made me feel well cared for from the very beginning. Ozlem was outstanding throughout the entire process. She was thorough, attentive, and consistently responsive, ensuring that I was never left uncertain about what to expect. I was always given clear guidance regarding where I needed to be, when things would take place, and how each part of the process would unfold. That level of communication and support was invaluable. The hotel accommodations were also excellent. The hotel was clean, comfortable, and welcoming, which made our stay all the more enjoyable and contributed positively to the overall experience. I am now three months post-operative after an upper blepharoplasty, a cheek lift (oka DPVL), and a lip lift, and I could not be more pleased with how beautifully everything has healed. The result is exactly what I had hoped for: I look like a fresher, more youthful version of myself, not like a different person. That balance is incredibly important, and Dr. Cem achieved it beautifully. He is also a gifted communicator who takes the time to understand his patients’ goals with great care. It is clear that he combines technical precision with a genuine artistic eye, and that combination is reflected in the natural, elegant result he delivers. Equally important to me was his honesty regarding recovery. He never overstated or romanticized the healing process, and everything progressed exactly as he had explained. That honesty gave me enormous confidence and made the entire experience feel grounded, trustworthy, and reassuring. I am truly grateful to Dr. Cem, Ozlem, and the entire team for the wonderful care I received and for making what could have felt overwhelming instead feel smooth, thoughtful, and exceptionally well managed. I am very glad I found Dr. Cem, and I confident know without hesitation, who I would return to should I ever decide to have a neck lift in the future. Thank you!

Dr CBS without a doubt is one of the most masterful, talented and knowledgeable plastic surgeons in Turkey. He is an artist, he looks at your face and knows everything you need done- better than any surgeon I had consulted- and has the knowledge, skills and expertise to deliver his vision meticulously and to perfection. He does this with passion, care and dedication. What he did for my face was not short of miracle. His whole team were amazing. After care was above and beyond anything I expected. I can not recommend him enough.

I had a submentoplasty with Dr Cem Berkay three weeks ago, and I couldn't be happier with my experience and results. The procedure was performed in an office setting under local anaesthetic, which made the whole process much calmer and more comfortable than I expected. Dr Berkay did an incredible job—the surgery was flawless, and even with some minor swelling still present, the results are already unbelievable. His assistant, Ozlem, was wonderful from the very beginning—always kind, courteous, and incredibly helpful throughout the entire process. Nurse Volkan was also fantastic, providing reassurance and support during the procedure and making me feel completely at ease. I highly recommend Dr Cem Berkay and his team to anyone considering this procedure. Their professionalism, care, and attention to detail have been exceptional. I could not be happier with the outcome.

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

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.

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.
