Editorial bio · audio
0:000:00
Associate Professor Fikret Eren is a board-certified plastic surgeon practicing in Istanbul, Turkey, where he focuses on aesthetic and reconstructive surgery with a defined interest in facial rejuvenation, including the deep plane facelift. He operates from the Estetik, Plastik, Rekonstrüktif Cerrahi Kliniği in Istanbul, treating both domestic patients and an international clientele that includes documented cases from Romania and other European countries. His academic title of Associate Professor reflects the dual clinical and educational pathway typical of Turkish university-affiliated plastic surgeons, and his professional standing is anchored in membership in the Turkish Society of Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgeons (TSPRAS), the primary specialty body for the discipline in Turkey. Beyond facial work, the record documents demonstrated expertise in body contouring, including abdominoplasty, liposuction, post–massive-weight-loss procedures, and revision surgery, as well as cases involving patients with underlying conditions such as lipedema. Dr. Eren maintains a 5.0-star rating on Google across 75 patient reviews, with feedback consistently citing meticulous surgical planning, clear pre-operative communication, and structured post-operative follow-up — factors particularly relevant for medical-tourism patients traveling to Istanbul. The DEEPPLANE™ editorial board reviews each surgeon's listed certifications, society memberships, hospital affiliations, and publicly verifiable patient-outcome signals; Dr. Eren's record is currently classified as unverified pending direct confirmation of credentials with TSPRAS and his practice.

I feel very fortunate to have found Dr Fikret Eren. I underwent a botched abdominal liposuction procedure with another surgeon in 2018 and had mulled for years over whether it was worth the risk of undergoing revision surgery. It was then that I consulted with Dr Fikret. Dr Fikret did not make any false promises to me - he was very honest about the limited scope for improvement - and I could immediately see that he had my best interests at heart. I eventually made the decision to go ahead with the revision, combining it with a liposuction procedure on my back (this involved transfer of fat from my back to the depressions in my abdomen). Despite the operation being complex, everything went so smoothly and I had absolutely minimal pain - all thanks to the outstanding skill and care of Dr Fikret and his team. It is still a bit early to determine the final results of the revision to my abdomen, but my back is already looking fabulous - which in itself has made the operation worthwhile. Dr Fikret is clearly a very talented, honest and conscientious surgeon and I would not hesitate to recommend him. Thank you so much Dr Fikret, Ebru, Bugra and team!

I had my 360-degree tummy tuck on Monday after losing 60 kg. Dr. Eren removed a total of 4.5 kg from my abdomen and flanks. I've been extremely satisfied with the care I've received from the very beginning! The pre-operative marking, the surgery itself, and the aftercare provided by Dr. Eren and his wife were all excellent. This was my second time at Akdeniz Şifa Hospital (my first stay was for a gastric sleeve), and I'll be returning for two more surgeries. Highly recommended!

Since I suffer from lipedema, I had a tummy tuck and lateral back lift in June 2025. The consultation and surgery were excellent. Dr. Fikret Eren is competent and experienced. As a result, I returned to Dr. Eren in February 2026 for liposuction to remove lipedema from my entire legs and an upper arm lift. Again, I can say: excellent doctor and excellent care from the entire team. I have already recommended him to several people.

What is the recovery time for a deep plane facelift?
Recovery from a deep plane facelift typically involves 2-3 weeks of initial healing, with most visible bruising resolving within 7-10 days and sutures removed at days 7-10. International patients can generally travel home after 10-14 days once swelling has stabilised and wound checks are complete.
