Asked Questions

Absolutely delighted with my hair transplant from welfare abroad. Everything went to plan. No pain whatsoever. It was so easy from getting off the plane to returning home. The aftercare is second to none. Special mention to Richard for all the communication prior to my trip. Also to my agent in Istanbul to Ulaş. Made me feel welcome and translated to me during and after the procedure. 5 stars from me. Now to look forward to it growing 🤞. Thanks, guys.

Great experience all in all from the welfare abroad team I’m glad I chose them to get my hair transplant; from getting off the plane to the hotel to the actual treatment center, it was a joy. I would like to thank Ulas, who helped me the whole way. Thanks again to the whole welfare abroad team.

Lucas West

My whole experience has been amazing. My contact Richard in the UK set everything up.

All I’ve had to do is book flights.

Since I landed in Istanbul I have not had to think of anything. Airport transfers, hotels and my translator / representative Ulaş has been brilliant.

The whole process has been slick and on time.

I would highly recommend.

Zac Cotton

I originally paid my deposit for the treatment in Jan 2020. Then Covid 19 came along. Throughout, Welfare honoured the original deal which only lasted 12 months. Two years later, and my treatment was completed yesterday.

Highly professional and easy to deal with. The process was very smooth and concise. Ulash was great and put me at ease with any questions I had.

Now for the aftercare. But if it's as good as the booking and treatment process then they'll be no problems.

Paul Jones

I travelled to Turkey on 8th November and returned on the 11t November. I had a fue procedure with 4000 grafts. This has been around 2 weeks now and I'm delighted with the results so far. I was a bit hesitant about going to a foreign country but upon arriving everything went smooth, Richard arranged everything in fine detail down to taxis picking up and dropping off, hotels etc... On the day of the procedure Ulash met me at the hotel and took me to the clinic, really nice guy and put my mind at ease, at the clinic the team were lovely and very professional. This in the UK would have been around 6k and this cost me £1400, if I ever have to return I will be using welfare abroad as the level of service, equipment and knowledge was second to none. My advice would be just go for it, you won't regret it.

Jack Washington

I have just finished my hair transplant treatment with welfare abroad in Istanbul. Everyone involved from the host to the specialist were extremely professional and helpful throughout the experience. I am very happy with the process and would highly recommend!

Owen Jackson

Great team, great communication throughout, clean environment, great price, very friendly and most important of all excellent results

Ashley Shepherd

Had my procedure done in November 2018 and i am over the moon with the result....

The whole experience was first class from the first time i got in touch with Welfare Abroad.

They are not the type of company that will hound you into paying a deposit "soon before it is too late".
There was a brief chat over the phone where they would go through what i would be getting for my price and then they would let me book in in my own time, which i liked as i feel i wasn't pestered to book with them like i had been with other companys.

I would not hesitate if i had to book again. You are in great hands when you book in with Welfare Abroad.

Also, a special thanks to my case manager, Richard, for his exceptional guidance and support during my procedure. A big thanks to Welfare Abroad for my whole experience again! 

Aisha Lynn

When I first contacted Welfare Abroad, they called me back shortly and started informing me about my planned treatment right ahead. Everyone in the team was very professional and informative, I did my best to bore them with all my questions but they never stopped answering me, a special thanks for that :) They used every channel such as phone calls, emails, SMS, WhatsApp, and Skype for perfect communication at every step of my medical travel. They also have been following up my recovery process starting from the first week after my operation, it was like as if I was their only patient which felt great. I must say I am quite impressed by Welfare Abroad’s service and care. 

Ricardo

A relative of mine who also used Welfare Abroad recommended them to me. And our community have been getting bigger and bigger in Austria, Dr.Can Isler has been phenomenal and so far each of us had a great result. Thumbs up!

During this healing period, you need to stay away from physical activities and heavy lifting. In most cases, you can get back to your daily routine 1 week after the operation.

Breast reduction surgeries are getting quite popular in the last decade and this is not a surprise because this type of surgery has proven to be safe and effective. Even though the vast majority of women are using these surgeries to increase the size of their breasts, there s a significant number of women who are choosing breast reduction surgery.

First, your surgeon will discuss your expectations with you and explain what can realistically be achieved. Then your surgeon will show you before-after breast reduction photos of his work. You may also show him photos of what you would like to achieve. There is no one size fits all technique when it comes to this procedure. It is all individual, as you are!\nPrior to your breast reduction surgery, your breasts will be examined thoroughly to determine the most effective surgical approach. Mammograms or x-rays may be taken along with preoperative photographs.

Although it varies depending on the size of the breast and the reduction technique, the procedure takes 2 to 3,5 hours on average.

It can be considered permanent, but it should be kept in mind that the remaining fat cells will swell and enlarge if you gain weight. Pregnancy will also trigger swelling or enlargement of breasts to store milk. Also, If you take hormonal supplements, it is probable to gain small amounts of breast tissue back. The exception is virginal hyperplasia/hypertrophy, where the estrogen levels are high, and the development of the breast may be ongoing.

The patient stays in the hospital after the operation to make sure there are no post-operative problems. The patient uses a sports bra for 4 to 6 weeks after the operation. If the patient is not doing heavy work in her daily life, she may go back to work even after 3 days, but mostly our surgeons suggest 10 days of rest.\nThe patient should limit her arm movements and shouldn’t lift heavy objects for some time. The visible results of the procedure may take 6 months.

Breast operations are not very painful procedures, and the pain can be tolerated with the help of painkillers after the operation. The patient must avoid rapid arm movements.\nAfter a few days from the procedure, the patient may start doing their daily duties lightly.

Incisions are usually made within the natural folds under the breasts, sometimes around the areolae, and in a line from the crease to the areolae.

Any size of the breast is suitable for the Breast Uplift procedure. Usually, the patients with small and sag breasts get the best results.

Breast Uplift surgery is done under general anesthesia like other breast procedures, and the patient sleeps during the operation.

You may have swelling, bruising, and discomfort for one or two days after the operation but heavy aching is not expected. Provided medicine will be enough for any type of discomfort you may experience.

Breast Uplift surgery usually takes 1,5 to 2 hours.

After the breast uplift procedure, there would be micro scars around the nipple and/or below the nipple, but these heal pretty well. After the following 2-3 months the scars would be barely visible.

Yes, you may have implants during the procedure. In cases where breast uplift and augmentation are done together, the implants are usually placed under the breast tissue or even deeper below the muscles.

The healing period will take its time. You may go back to work after 4 to 5 days, but you should avoid lifting objects above your head for 3 weeks time. It is also advised to avoid coercive sports activities and sexual activities for a week.

Both the breast uplift procedure and the breast enlargement procedure (putting implants) doesn’t change the probability of breast cancer.
