Breast Reduction, also known as reduction mammoplasty, is a surgical procedure that removes excess breast tissue, fat, and skin to achieve smaller, lighter, and more proportionate breasts. Many women with overly large breasts experience physical discomfort such as back pain, neck pain, skin irritation, and posture issues, as well as emotional challenges related to body image.
At Badge Health in Turkey, we specialize in safe, personalized breast reduction procedures designed to enhance comfort, restore balance, and improve quality of life.
Badge clinic was amazing! I had nurses with me 24/7 who were there to help me understand what was happening during the procedure! Dr. Sarper was very kind and has done 100 liposuctions! He never made me feel uncomfortable and made sure I understood what was best for my body! Highly recommend!

I am a patient from the UK who travelled to Badge clinic in Turkey upon recommendations. The level of service from start to finish was 5 star. I had surgery done with badge clinic and everything from their part was so well planned out. Everyone representing the clinic was very friendly and took such good care of me. The communication was 5 star. As my surgery was a few days ago, i haven’t been able to see my final result but from what I have seen, I am extremely happy! Thank you Badge clinic! I will be visiting again.

I was a patient at Badge Clinic. I was impressed by how well they organized to pick me up from the airport, then take me to the hotel and get me back on time. They were very well organized, the staff is pleasant, but the organizers were in touch with me to be sure that everything is done professionally and on time; I also have friends who were patients at this clinic and were satisfied. Thank you Badge clinic so we will definitely see you soon.

I had a hair transplant a week ago and I couldn’t have asked for a better team to help me through the process than Badge Clinic. The transfers from the airport to the hotel to the clinic were great.

Had a great experience from the minute i landed, everyone was very welcoming, made me feel at ease, can’t thank my 2 nurses enough from being in the hospital and hotel, kept reassuring me when was needed, especially being so far from home, definitely made the right choice with choosing badge clinic.. only thing i would say was hard was the language barrier but that’s excepted to come to there country, nothing google translate doesn’t help with x

I recently underwent a hair transplant at Badge Clinic in Istanbul, and I couldn’t be happier with the entire experience. From the initial consultation to the post-procedure follow-up, the team at Badge Clinic demonstrated professionalism, expertise, and genuine care.
The clinic itself is state-of-the-art, with modern facilities that made me feel comfortable and reassured throughout the process. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure all my questions were answered and that I felt fully prepared before the procedure. The medical team, led by highly skilled surgeons, was extremely meticulous, ensuring everything was done with precision and care.
The procedure itself was smooth and relatively painless, and I was impressed with the thoroughness and attention to detail. The team ensured I understood the post-op care instructions, and the follow-up support has been fantastic. I am excited about the final outcome!
Traveling to Istanbul for this procedure was definitely worth it also VIP transportation between airport, 5 start to clinic and Badge Clinic provides an excellent combination of affordability and world-class expertise. For anyone considering a hair transplant, I would highly recommend Badge Clinic. They exceeded my expectations in every way.

Very welcoming people. I was stressed that the doctor had to take my canine out and is visible so they came with the option with a temporary tooth until next appointment for the implant. Also the bridge procedure was done with precision. Honestly they know what they are doing and you feel in good hands. Highly recommend Badge Clinic.🌸🌸🌸

Honestly could not knock my experience
Honestly could not knock my experience. Flying solo I was very nervous. I had Nesrine guide me through it all who is an amazing coordinator. I got to the hospital and again was very nervous but was soon reassured. I then got settled in a lovely hospital room. I had bloods taken, chest x-ray and an ultrasound scan on tummy. I then met with my doctor Professor Dr. Cengiz Eriş who was very knowledgeable and made me at ease. I then got given the go ahead for Gastric sleeve surgery. It has been an experience and I’m
So glad to say a success. I was up walking a few hours after. Day 2 is probably the worst but once you get through it your on cloud 9. I met with my dietician and given all my protein shales and vitamins. Then got discharged day 3 post op. I got transferred to a beautiful hotel where I am relaxed and it’s beautiful. Thankyou for everything ❤️

Post surgery of 4 days, fly back room night. I’ve had 360 lipo, tummy tuck and a do repair. Nurse all so kind and Google translate helps. Walking as advised has helped a lot increase mobility and reduce swelling or bloating. Defiantly take comfy button up the front over size item, travel light and book special assistance for the airport to help get through the massive airport.
Results look great already and super bloated and need to get lymph massages but extremely happy so far.
Hotel staff, clinic & hospital staff are all friendly. Surgeon lovely and nice. Just drink plenty, stay comfy and walking is key!!

Very happy with badge clinic as a whole. From stepping of the plane right until the end. The staff have been amazing and helped me every step of the way. If I needed anything they responded to me very fast and helped with whatever I needed.

Just had Gastric Sleeve Surgery and a Gastric Band removal surgery completed on 24/05/24 by Prof. Dr. Cengis Eris at the hospital in Istanbul. From start to finish the entire Badge team have been nothing short of amazing. From pick up at the airport to your return back home they have been in contact and making sure I fully understand what is happening and what to expect. My Co-ordinator Nesrine has been amazing. I traveled by myself and was worried this was going to be too much but the team at Badge really take fantastic care of you. If you are debating if this is right thing to do or if this is the right place to have your surgery I can’t stress enough just how amazing and resasurred the team has made me feel. Although I’m only really a couple of days out and will see the results over the next coming weeks and months. I am relatively pain free and able to manage my normal activities which surprised me but shows just great they are at what they do.

The crew was very helpful and informative. It’s clear that they want you to be as comfortable as possible throughout the process. The consultant is just one message away and fast in responding to your questions and every need. The surgery went well and I can’t wait to see the results. The transportation was also very precise and on time for every trip. 👍🏾

I had a really positive experience from start to finish. Everything was so easy to book, and the whole process was organised really well. As soon as I arrived in Turkey, I was picked up from the airport and taken straight to the hotel, …

Very good staff!! Even the cleaner was lovely and supportive, I was quite scared as I came alone but they made you feel comfortable at all times! And asked if you needed anything a lot! I would definitely recommend badge clinic. I’ve been in very very little pain and the procedure ran very smoothly! 10/10

I got a breast augmentation and otoplasty with Dr Mete. He was very friendly and gave me exactly what I asked for. I am very happy with my results so far. The nurses were also very friendly and helpful.
Teresa Z.
I went to Turkey to get my new healthy Hollywood smile. Badge Clinic was recommended to me and my initial experience with Miray was very positive. On my arrival I met Nesrine – my medical coordinator. She took excellent care of my dental journey. She was professional, always available and ready to help me. Nesrine went above and beyond to assist me and I am forever grateful for her effort. I would recommend Badge Clinic to everyone. Their customer service and care are exceptional. Thank you Nesrine and Miray!

Breast reduction surgery is performed to reduce the size and weight of the breasts while improving their shape and positioning. It is often chosen for both medical and cosmetic reasons, making it one of the most life-enhancing procedures in cosmetic surgery.
Candidates for breast reduction include women who experience:
Chronic back, neck, or shoulder pain
Shoulder indentations from bra straps
Skin irritation or rashes under the breasts
Difficulty with physical activities due to breast size
Emotional discomfort or self-consciousness
How is Breast Reduction Performed?
The surgery involves several steps:
Consultation & Planning – Assessment of health history, breast size, and goals.
Anesthesia – Typically performed under general anesthesia.
Incision Technique – Common patterns include:
Keyhole (vertical) incision
Anchor-shaped incision
Tissue Removal & Reshaping – Excess fat, glandular tissue, and skin are removed. The breast is reshaped, and the nipple may be repositioned.
Closing Incisions & Recovery – Sutures are applied, and recovery begins.
The procedure usually takes 3–4 hours, depending on the case.
Advantages of Breast Reduction
Relieves chronic pain and discomfort
Improves posture and physical mobility
Reduces skin irritation and rashes
Creates lighter, firmer, and more proportionate breasts
Enhances self-confidence and body image
Makes clothing and physical activities more comfortable
Recovery After Breast Reduction
Recovery is generally straightforward, with many patients returning to daily routines in 1–2 weeks. General recommendations include:
Wearing a supportive surgical bra
Avoiding strenuous exercise for 4–6 weeks
Taking prescribed medication for pain relief
Attending follow-up appointments for progress monitoring
Final results are visible once swelling subsides, typically after 2–3 months.
Risks and Considerations
Although breast reduction is safe and life-changing, possible risks include:
Temporary bruising, swelling, and discomfort
Scarring (which fades over time)
Changes in nipple sensation (usually temporary)
Difficulty breastfeeding (in some cases)
Rare need for revision surgery
At Badge Health, we prioritize safety, advanced surgical techniques, and comprehensive aftercare to ensure optimal outcomes and long-term satisfaction.
