In Their Own Words

Patient results, straight from the recovery room

Real patients, filmed days after surgery — not polished marketing, just their honest first reaction.

Netherlands

Why Erbil

The same standard of surgery, without the European bill

Patients across the diaspora are discovering that a short trip home costs less — in money and in waiting time — than booking a clinic in Stockholm, Berlin, or London.

Your Surgeon

One experienced hand, both functional and aesthetic surgery

In Erbil since2011

Dr. Bilgin trained at Cerrahpaşa Faculty of Medicine in Istanbul and completed further training in the United States before establishing one of Erbil's first dedicated ENT and aesthetic surgery practices in 2011.

Unlike clinics that separate cosmetic and functional care, Dr. Bilgin performs both rhinoplasty and functional nasal surgery himself — meaning your aesthetic result and your ability to breathe are shaped by the same experienced hand, not divided between specialists.

Many patients arrive after a previous rhinoplasty elsewhere left them with breathing difficulty or a crooked inner structure. Dr. Bilgin's ENT background means the inside of your nose gets the same attention as the outside.

Where Our Patients Travel From

Diaspora patients already make the trip home

From across Europe and Iraq, patients choose to combine surgery with a visit home rather than book a foreign clinic abroad.

Practical Information

What diaspora patients ask before they book

What languages does the clinic speak?

English, Arabic (Iraqi dialect), Kurdish (Sorani), and Turkish — in consultation, on WhatsApp, and in the clinic itself.

How long should I plan to stay in Erbil?

Most rhinoplasty patients plan for 7–10 days, covering the in-person consultation, surgery, and early recovery check-ins before flying home.

Is the price really fixed once quoted?

Yes. Once your photos are reviewed and a price is given over WhatsApp, that is the price — no clinic-day surprises.

What if I had a previous rhinoplasty elsewhere?

Revision cases are common. Because the surgeon can't know exactly what was done inside until surgery, an in-person consultation is essential and is priced separately from a first-time rhinoplasty.
