Lack of post care with infected wound
I received breast reduction surgery 3 weeks ago after using this company previously and am a returning client. On returning home and 2 weeks post op my incisions became hot red and extremely sore, I uploaded photos of my concerns and was told the surgeon would be shown on Weds 2/11 and get back to me, by Thurs 3/11 things had worsened and I attended my local hospital where the doctor squeezed out the pus and prescribed antibiotics for 12 days.
I received NO reply from Turkey nothing.
I sent them a message on 5/11 and thanked them for their lack of concern to be told they are too busy to reply. I complained further and was then told a multitude of excuses such as my photo was blurry and they didnot reply as there was no need to reply as there was nothing wrong with me, that was actually from Turan a co owner of the business. I then posted my encounter on the “ patient “ forum to warn others. This was rejected as inaccurate (which it was not) by the Uk coordinator Jackie Bonham which is not acceptable. Both my breasts were infected and all they were bothered about was bad publicity
Desired outcome: Truth to be exposed my post to be uploaded as it is entirely truthful

The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer's satisfaction.
Wow.! Just pure scum to post others personal pictures ! Dodged a bullet here.
Rhinoplasty
I had a minor bend in my nose,
I decided to use Revitalise, at the consultation no one seemed to know what was going on where the consulate was etc,
I was so scared to go ahead but did so, when I came out of surgery I couldn't breath and was very swollen and bruised, when the cast came off I didn't see much difference, I was just very swollen, at the airport I was so ill and was passing blood in my stool but got on my flight got home thank god!
Since then my face has been swollen I have been in excruciating pain headaches and tiredness, the bend in my worse looks worse and I'm now thinking if I can get filler which I should of done I. First place! The Paitent coordinator does not care and says I signed the paper work that things may not work out to plan so there we are, I have been very depressed since I came back and wish I just things alone, please think carefully as if it's not how you like it is left in ur hands they have been paid!
Lisa you leave us no choice but to post your before and after photos in our defence and respond publicly to your complaint.
You were advised that your nose was extensively damaged and that the surgeon would do his best to correct it as much as possible but you wouldn’t achieve perfection. To that end you agreed to proceed and improvement has been considerable as the photos indicate.
We are sorry you have chosen to use this platform to make an unjustified complaint.
Consultation - operation consent form which the patient signed to give her consent for the operation.
2 months after the operation
One week after the operation
Before the operation
We would like to provide the below impartial information in our defence:
First of all, contrary to what has been stated above, Miss Lisa Hayes did have a major break on her nose to begin with before she had her operation with us which has left her with a fractured bone making her nose bent to one side, this could be evidenced both by the pictures submitted by the patient before she came to have the procedure and the photos taken after her operation during the consultation. We have clearly explained to the patient that the due to level of damage being intense, that we can only obtain a limited improvement for her surgery (all the information given to the patient as to what level of improvement could be offered is highlighted on the consultation form which the patient assented by undersigning it, please see the attached copy), hence; our clinic has complied with its clinical obligations not only by explaining all the possible disadvantages with the operation but at the same time by following on patient's post-op queries on numerous occasions, we have repeated the same on each occasion that the result obtained is the best possible result that could be achieved in view of the previous damage which is beyond repair; however, patient's expectations were clearly registered not to be realistic enough. Regarding the issues about passing blood in stool, it is clearly not clinically proven to be related with the rhinoplasty operation the patient had, there is hardly any condition of such that could be observed with any rhinoplasty operation. Such as the same for the excruciating pain and tiredness; no clinical findings suggested any evidence for these problems to be linked with the operation the patient had.

Dangerous surgery
After having liposuction, tummy tuck and arm lift my tummy became infected with bacteria. After staying at the hospital in Izmir I was sent to their Villa but was left feeling very weak. After 10 days I returned home to the Uk, but collapsed at Istanbul Airport and had to be wheeled to my connecting flight to the Uk. After arriving in the UK I spent the next 2 weeks in Frenchay Hospital Bristol UK because my tummy was seriously infected (see photos). They put me on penicillin and other medications to kill the infection. I then had to have 2 more operations. The first was to clean my tummy out as it was creating puss. The second was to have a skin graft from my leg to repair the tummy tuck wound.
I have requested that the hospital return my money for the infections I suffered but they have refused.
They called me and offered all required medical assistance and helped me to sort out my problem which has been caused by unexperienced staff at NHS hospitals.
I am so glad I stumbled upon this thread...I had actually just requested a quote after reading what I believed were genuine "glowing" reviews.
I can't imagine how frightening and and frustrating it must have been for those of you who have been so badly treated both surgically and after.
I was quite surprised when I read these complaints against RevitalizeinTurkey. I have used them twice and both times I was very happy with the result and I could not fault the care I received. I honestly would not have returned for a second procedure if this wasn’t the case.
Revitalize! You are on a conyeor belt. It's a cattle market! One in,one out. Once discharged home there is no after care. They specialise in avoiding patients post operatively when they have left Turkiea.
This is to inform that our surgeon has engaged in corresponding with Ms Bronagh non-stop for almost 2 months post-operatively himself almost day and night to support her during the intitial phase of recovery. (Screen-shots of the whole conversation and patient's before and after' photos to prove our point). Patient's claim about the after-care and support are completely ungrounded - she is booked to stay for 10 nights after having the operation with us, and it was our surgeon following her up 2 months none-stop after she got back to Belfast. Despite our gracious efforts to provide her support all throughout her recovery, we have been confronted with blackmailing campaign launched by the patient for no reason (all the evidences could be shared with the public upon request in addition to 'before and after' photos to refute patient's claims about her operation being is a faulty one).Patient incessantly demanded us to pay her flights when her breasts were all healed up; with no reason to fly back to clinic for any medical intervention. It is quite unfortunate for all this to happen when we have done our best to guide Ms Bronagh through the initial phase of her recovery.

Thank you for the reviews, i am from the UK and was going to use revitalize for a tummy tuck and breast lift - but after reading the reviews i will be looking else where. Thanks again
We respect your decision; however, as a part of responsibility to enlighten any other viewers & visitors of this platform, we feel like we have to shed light on certain facts. Unfortunately, plastic surgery and beauty industry has a nature to attract diverse group of patients whose exceptions sometimes might not concur with what's medically attainable and whose awareness and understanding of what the plastic surgery and the recovery entail could be rather limited and tenuous. We endeavor to manage patients's expectations and provide a full description of what the after-care & predicted result and possible disadvantages; patients normally accept to undergo the surgery within the light of the information given to them; however we find it quite upsetting to be hauled over the coals as we believe that we take every step possible to fulfill our clinical obligations, not only by feeding our patients with after-care instructions but at the same time offering them corrective/ revision operations where possible. We regret to highlight that most of the complaints arise due to patients expectations not being realistic, or patient's lack of understanding about what the recovery could entail. We have had thousands of patients who had tummy tuck and breast uplift operation at our clinic in 17 yrs, probably more than any other clinic in Turkey. Fortunately, there weren't any patient who had any major complications so far, the fact that the scar revisions and minor revisions have been performed infrequently is a testament to the fact that not only we abide by our responsibility to fulfill our clinical obligations to the full without dismissing any of their claims; we also deliver a thorough after-care which has proved to be effective as the revision cases are very limited.

Me too.! I have a friend who has been scammed by them. Gave her one price. Until she was about to leave to go and have it done. Then put price up by thousands !
In our defense, we would like to clarify that our prices are set prices and are the same for everyone. If something is discussed during the consultation before the surgery and there is a need for a change in the operation package, the gets informed on the new price and proceeds with the procedure considering it.
As the identity of the person who made this comment is not clear, we cannot provide any specific details, but the policy is the same for everyone.
I have read these comments. Having has a tummy tuck and breast uplift with Dr Cenk I surprised! I found the team really helpful and am happy with my results - I think people need to be realistic with their results and listen to the advice given! I had to go home with a drain in me and the aftercare I received was brilliant, daily contact. Another person in the villa with a face lift (heavy smoker who continued to smoke whilst in recovery) was told she couldn’t fly back as she hadn’t sufficiently recovered and she had to stay on in the villa - hardly the actions of a medical team who don’t care. Someone else I went with wanted some revisions done on her scar and they did it without any quibble.
I had the same problem when went to Poland
A Docor kalesinski performed my surgery for a face and neck lift, and I looked like I had a few rounds with a boxer... I was sent back to my accommodation not long after and I fainted. Went back in straight away, and he cut me open whilst I was awake, without anesthetic and drained pus away. It was agony I could feel everything.. when I got back to uk I was really Ill.
Had to call a Doctor out and was told I needed to go to hospital straight away. My face and neck was full of poison. Had to go on antibiotics and stay in hospital for 3 days, to have the pus drained via syringe.. Apparently if I didn't get treated I could have died. So anyone thinking of having any surgery don't go to him. Do a thorough search before rushing in...
.
I visited Revitalise in October 2018 for a tummy tuck and lipo, I have nothing but praise for the team ! From being met at the airport to arriving at the villa. Then next day transported to the hospital to see Dr Cenk before surgery every service went smoothly. I am very happy with my tummy tuck and was shocked that after day one no more pain relief was needed.
So happy that the end of January I returned for a neck lift ..face lift and eye surgery. This time the professor performed my operation.Again outstanding surgery and my results are amazing everyone has said it’s knocked 20 years off me .. all I can say is listen to the teams advice and follow there instructions .. we all want perfection and want it now ! ... but sometimes things take time to settle so allow this to happen xxx
This comment is clearly fake and written by JACKIE BONHAM the UK coordinator just like the other ‘amazing’ reviews on this thread to try and do damage control for voodoo witch doctor Dr Cenk. She even uses the same phrases and sentences as from a copy and paste style that she has saved on her phone in order to provide whatsapp responses to patients. There is no individual patient care you are just a number in a spreadsheet/cash cow to them which is why the surgery and results are mediocre at best. This approach will never result in good quality personalised surgery. These are people lives they are ruining. To give someone gangrene and infection from a tummy tuck and to refuse to refund the poor woman above her money is despicable. Revitalize is EXACTLY what you hear about in newspapers and TV of botched work abroad! STAY AWAY!
It certainly wasn’t written by me (Jackie Bonham) I have better things to do with my time than post fake reviews and we have many many happy, supportive patients who are more than happy to recommend us and respond to negative reviews on our behalf without coercion.
I Was more than happy with my surgery results and care whilst recovering in the villa. However, my aftercare has been nearly non existent. I contacted revitalize with pics of my wound and told its normal but to do daily dressings, which I have. I was asked to contact them if things changed, I did this also but not received any reply. I am now on antibiotics for a wound infection! I wish the aftercare was better!
Why don’t I believe you…. Oh yeh. Because you are nothing but a liar and a fraud. You get peoples money and enjoy your free operations. U don’t give a damn about aftercare or even during care! You have even gone on post above and managed to put case as resolved and blamed the Uk nhs.! You are lower than snakes the lot of u. But your the worst one as ur the front runner Jackie.! Karma comes on swift wings for people like u. As ugly on the inside as you are on the out.!
Before undergoing the surgery, our patients have a consultation where they discuss their expectations and the limitations of the surgery with the surgeon. Once they agree, they sign our contract and liabilities form whereby they accept having the surgery. If there is a state of dissatisfaction, regarding our guidelines, we first check our consultation notes and before & after photos of the patient to see if we have been able to meet the results we promised to the patient at the consultation. If we haven't, we offer our patients a free revision surgery if they contact us within 12 months, where they only need to pay for the theatre fee and accommodation (and PCR test since the pandemic started). In Peter's case, regarding our notes, we have already met the results we promised and when he contacted us it had been more than 12 months already. Even though we do our best to help our patients for them to have the look they desire, it is difficult to achieve that with non-cooperative patients.
I am so glad i have found this thread on Dr Cenk and Revitalize. In September 2017 I had a nose job with Dr Cenk and it has ruined my life. I am only 26 years old and all of my concerns raised have been brushed aside by both Jackie Bonham and Turan. The shape of my nose has been changed against my consent and the whole appearance and outcome is unnatural. I have been feeling for 2 years like I am the only one but after seeing this thread my concerns have been verified. Dr Cenk is a monster and all the team care about is money in their pockets. Jackie has stated on another website responding to my reviews that my reviews are fake and that they have never treated me - THIS IS A LIE. There is ZERO patient care. Anyone and everyone who sees this please whatsapp me on [protected] and I am happy to start a group to communicate with all unhappy patients who have been left botched by Dr Cenk. I beg everyone to please whatsapp me. I am currently seeking legal advice with my copies of the documents I signed for my op. I await all your contact!
Hi can you give me some more information?
What exactly are you looking for? Ive been quite up front on this thread
We kindly ask the complainant above to provide us with her name and last name to be able to fullfill our responsibility to shed impartial, unbiased information to be supported by clinical evidence in the form of visual and print material as we are confident to have followed the right path of resolution scheme to all patients with any complaint by not witholding them the option to have corrective/revison operation(s) where necessary, we believe any information lacking any evidence would result in online viewers’ misjuding the full portrait of the situation, so we stand firm on our call for sharing all the documentation and visual evidence with the online audience for a due impartial judgement. Thanks

I have just been.
I had an arm lift a year and a half ago and am very pleased.I was looked after from start to finish .
In hospital I had a member of Revitalize staff sleeping on the coach in case I needed any help.
Driven round to any appointments and cooked and looked after in the villa.Dressings changed and all I had to do was relax in the lovely garden.Had aftercare when I was back in London .
Fabulous !
I've had excellent results from the work I had done at Revitalize. I had breast implants in April 2018. My scars are barely visible and friends comment that I have the best boob job they've seen.
I was so pleased that I went back in November to have Face rejuvenation/facelift, neck lift, brow lift, upper and lower lids and fat transfer. My before and after photographs are on Revitalize Instagram and Facebook. I am really happy with my result, and guess what? I go back start of April for rhinoplasty
Where can I find your photos of facelift as I’m a bit concerned now having read other reviews. I’m due to have a facelift there soon. Many thanks
@elvis71 did you go into end? If so how did it go? I’m due there in April and getting a bit anxious with mixed reviews.
Hi I’m due to go in May but I’m reading more negative reviews and now not sure which positive reviews are real what can you tell me to help me with this decision I’m very confused now as to what to do 😞
Hi Michelle and Tracey, I had surgery done with Dr Cenk at Revitalize in 2019 and was really happy with the results. I received calls and emails post surgery and haven’t seen any negative reviews in the past. You are in good hands there, don’t worry. ☺️
Botched operation causing life threatening infection
I travelled to Turkey from the Uk to have a tummy tuck, liposuction and arm lift.During the operation I lost alot of blood and was unable to have the full liposuction.After the operation I was very weak and returned to the UK after my 10 day stay.On my return flight from Izmir to Istanbul I collapsed at Istanbul airport as I was very sick and weak.The airport staff wheeled me onto my connecting flight to Gatwick.From Gatwick I was wheeled off the plane and examined by paramedics.I was very pale and had a high temperature. I was met at Gatwick airport by a friend who helped me return to Bristol.The following day I was admitted to Frenchay hospital in Bristol suffering from internal infections and my tummy tuck was showing signs of infection as it was creating puss (see photos).The doctors put me on penicillan and various other anti biotics as they did not know what type of bacteria was causing my infection.After about 8 days I had to have another operation to clean my tummy as it was very seriously infected and my infection level was very high.After the operation I started to recover, but it was necessary to have a second operation involving a skin graft from my leg to sew up the large whole in my stomach.
I have been in Frenchay hospital for over 2 weeks and the hospital in Turkey refused to take any responsibility for the infection and they sent me home when I was not strong enough to make the journey.I have asked them for a refund of the fees as compensation for the infection I have suffered.They have refused
I'd like to express my sincere apologies to my initial treatment provider, who it must be said have been supportive and professional throughout, have promised to correct the mess the NHS have left me in and have also offered me a partial refund in recognition of my suffering whilst I accept they bear no liability. I am now deciding whether to pursue the NHS for damages.
Are u serious ! Clearly U have either been bought off or this is an employee of the company because u were clearly Ill before even coming home ! Iv read all of your reviews of how they treated u and now u are backtracking. Obviously you are nothing but a liar

I have heard how bad this company is. After care is shocking . Unfortunately you are not the first to complain. The take down negative comments so the public forum is unable to see. Unacceptable
I wish you speedy recovery
We don't know where you have seen complaints about our aftercare. Indeed, our aftercare service is the reason why most of our patients return home happy and recommend us to all their friends & family. We arrange as many post-op checks as possible with the surgeon after the surgery to ensure that patient's recovery is going smoothly. We have our own patient complex, which is not something that other clinics have, where we deliver 24/7 aftercare service to our patients to help them recuperate in a calm & easy environment. Also, we contact our patients once they return to track their recovery and advise them if they need help. Briefly, as much as we care about the pre-operative period, aftercare is extremely important for us, and we do our best to help our patients have a smooth, hassle-free recovery.
