Lip Reduction in Dr. Kadri Akinci Plastic Surgery Clinic
About the clinic
Lip reduction at Dr. Kadri Akıncı Plastic Surgery Clinic in Istanbul, Turkey, is a surgical procedure to resize the lips for a more balanced facial appearance. The treatment is around $2,500 and is performed by a surgeon holding the European Board of Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery (EBOPRAS) diploma. This qualification signifies that the surgical care meets high European standards.
Lip Reduction Procedure Details
The surgery focuses on removing excess tissue from the upper or lower lips. Dr. Kadri Akıncı performs the procedure using local anesthesia, which allows patients to stay awake but feel no pain. The entire process takes between 1 and 2 hours. Because the doctor makes incisions inside the mouth, there are no visible scars on the face. This method hides the healing process while providing a natural look.
Recovery and Results
This is an outpatient procedure, so patients return to their hotel the same day. Most people return to light daily activities within a week. Full recovery typically takes a few weeks as swelling goes down. The results are permanent because the surgeon removes the physical tissue instead of using temporary treatments. This makes it a one-time solution for patients unhappy with lip volume.
Package Inclusions and Clinic Quality
The clinic offers all-inclusive packages to help international patients manage their trip. These packages typically cover the surgery, hotel accommodation, and airport transfers. Dr. Kadri Akıncı Plastic Surgery Clinic holds JCI accreditation and an International Health Tourism Authorization Certificate from the Turkish government. The clinic also has TPRECD board certification, which shows a commitment to safety and professional ethics.

Dr. Kadri Akinci Plastic Surgery Clinic: more details about the clinic
Dr. Kadri Akıncı Plastic Surgery Clinic is a private single-doctor practice established in 2026. This Istanbul facility is in the Kadıköy district. It focuses on plastic, reconstructive, and aesthetic surgery with an emphasis on natural results.
Accreditations and Medical Achievements
The clinic holds the Health Tourism Authorization Certificate from the Turkish Ministry of Health. This confirms the facility meets official standards for treating international patients. Dr. Kadri Akıncı has earned the EBOPRAS Diploma – a European board certification requiring rigorous written and oral exams.
The medical team maintains several professional memberships and certifications:
- TSPRAS (Turkish Society of Plastic Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgeons)
- ISAPS (International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery)
- TPRECD board certification
- JCI accreditation
In 2022, Dr. Akıncı completed a competitive fellowship with the Turkish Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery. He also takes part in ongoing education, including anatomical lab courses for facial and neck surgery.
Facial Aesthetics and Rhinoplasty
The clinic specializes in rhinoplasty, including ethnic and revision cases. Surgical planning focuses on maintaining facial harmony. For non-surgical options, the clinic offers liquid rhinoplasty with nose fillers. Side effects typically fade within 48 hours, so downtime is minimal.
Facial rejuvenation options include several surgical and aesthetic procedures:
- Facelift and neck lift
- Upper and lower blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery)
- Temporal and brow lifts
- Lip lift and fat grafting
- Mesotherapy for skin rejuvenation
Mesotherapy involves injecting vitamins and hyaluronic acid into the skin. Patients usually need three to six sessions for visible improvements.
Body Contouring and Breast Surgery
Surgeons perform high-definition liposuction and Vaser techniques. These methods treat excess fat in the abdomen, thighs, and neck. Neck liposuction often uses local anesthesia or sedation, which speeds recovery. Most patients return to light activities within seven days.
The clinic also offers major body and breast surgeries:
- Abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) for abdominal tightening
- Mommy makeover, combining breast and abdominal surgery
- Breast augmentation, lift, and reduction
- Surgical correction for gynecomastia (enlarged male breasts)
For gynecomastia, the clinic combines liposuction with gland removal. This creates a more masculine chest contour when exercise alone isn't effective.
High-Tech Aesthetic Treatments
The facility uses Secret RF, also known as the Golden Needle. This technology delivers radiofrequency energy through micro-needles. It targets skin sagging, acne scars, and fine wrinkles. The clinic also uses Fractional CO2 Laser to treat skin tone irregularities and stretch marks.
Specialists provide exosome therapy for regenerative medicine and hair loss. This minimally invasive treatment takes 30 to 60 minutes per session. Patients can return to their daily routines right after.
Services for International Patients
The clinic frequently treats patients from the UK, Scotland, and Denmark. All-inclusive medical packages simplify the process for travelers. The support team speaks English, Russian, German, Arabic, and Turkish. Free online consultations help start the surgical planning process.
International services include the following support features:
- VIP airport transfers
- Arranged hotel accommodations
- Structured pre-operative and post-operative support
- Recovery instructions for use after returning home
Medical coordinators respond to inquiries and provide recovery updates through the first four months. Anesthesia types are selected carefully based on each patient's health profile.
