Gum Contouring, also known as gum reshaping or gingivoplasty, is a cosmetic dental procedure that improves the appearance of the gum line and enhances your smile. It is ideal for patients with uneven gums, a “gummy smile,” or excess gum tissue.
At Badge Health in Turkey, we provide precise and safe gum contouring procedures using modern techniques for natural and aesthetic results.
I did the hair transplant. Everyone was super cool and nice. My Coordinator Nisrine walked me through all of the steps so I knew what to expect through the procedure and for my after care. The whole process they make sure you are comfortable and accommodated. The hotel they put you up at is really nice, the Free Breakfast Buffet is the BOMB and so is the room service menu. I had a nice stay and my procedure was as painless as possible. 10/10 Would recommend to a friend!

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!

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!!

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.

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 recently underwent a breast lift with implants and 360/back liposuction at Badge Clinic, and I couldn’t be happier with the entire experience.
First and foremost, I want to express my gratitude to Nurses Irem and Aleyna. Their friendliness and willingness to help made me feel at ease throughout my stay. Their professional care truly stood out.
A huge thank you to Dr. Mete for his incredible work. His expertise in performing my procedures was evident, and I am thrilled with the results after 3 days. His attention to detail and commitment to patient satisfaction are commendable.
I also want to thank Nesrine for her excellent organizational skills. She took care of everything, from coordinating my stay to managing transfers between the hotel and hospital, ensuring that everything ran smoothly.
The team at Badge Clinic is remarkably organized and dedicated to their patients’ well-being. I wholeheartedly recommend Badge Clinic to anyone considering these procedures.
Catalin A.
A great service with amazing people. At the beginning i was quite nervous for the fact that my teeth were a mess. I was always afraid of dentists but their excellent way of working made me confident that i am in very good hands. Thank you and i will definitely see you again.🙏

Not sure where to start! 10 out of 10. Badge Clinic is the best thing that ever happened to me. Surgeons are professional and can’t say thank you enough to the nurses at the hospital and the hotel. They were caring and helpful. My coordinator Miray was explaining everything in detail so I was aware of everything. She still messaging me after I was back in UK. 🥰 Can’t thank this team enough! Thank you ❤️🙏
Marina S.
Je recommande cette clinique à 100 % tout était très propre et le personnel a vraiment été présent du début jusqu’à la fin. Une prise en charge dès la sortie de l’aéroport on ne se sent jamais seul même si on vient seul sur place des traducteurs sont là pour vous aider et des infirmiers sont là pour s’occuper de vous. Que vous soyez à l’hôtel ou à l’hôpital personne ne vous laisse sans réponse vous êtes vraiment accompagné du début jusqu’à la fin. Je suis très satisfaite de mon expérience chez badge clinique chaque petit désaccord a été réglé quasiment instantanément par ma coordinatrice Nisrine car ils ont une très bonne communication. Pour résumer je vous dirai que vous pouvez y aller les yeux fermés vous ne serez pas déçu ni de votre prise en charge ni du résultat de votre opération.

Badge clinic get 5 stars and more for me. In my opinion there is no other clinic I would go to now. This is my second visit to badge clinic. I previously came for breast augmentation in 2020 so when I decided I wanted a tummy tuck and lipo, there was no other clinic I trusted. Dr Burak and his team are absolutely brilliant at what they do and I’m so impressed with my latest procedure. Their aftercare team is second to none and nothing is too much for these guys. They definitely go that extra mile to make you feel welcome and at ease. Love you guys, can’t wait to come back next year for even more procedures! ❤️❤️
Kiahna J.
Badge Clinic made my visit so smooth and easy, everything was great and I want to thank the all the nurse and staff for being so helpful and supportive throughout my visit. I am so happy with my results and I would recommend this clinic to everyone!
Jess L.
Amazing results for my lipo. I initially had my doubts as to how everything was going to turn out, but my goodness, has Dr Mete come through! I’m so pleased with my results and the body line I hadn’t seen in ages! Everything was taken care of from the arrival right down to the departure. The first day of my surgery, the nurses were available throughout the day and night. I had a hard time the first few days even getting up and about, but support was on hand and they came to check up on me several times. The hospital was very clean and the room was definitely of a high standard for a hospital room ( defo VIP like room). Only thing I would say is get ready to use a google translator on your phone as English is obviously second language understandably and go with your eyes open as the first few days felt like death to me (so take someone to help you unlike me as i went alone)but the results are well worth it! Thanks to the staff and Dr Metexx.
Bella X.
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
Maria W.
From the initial enquiry, through booking, surgery and post operative care badge were extremely helpful and reassuring.
The hospital was clean and comfortable and were accommodating to both myself and my companion.
Dr Mete listened to what I wanted whilst offering his professional opinion and giving me the results that I was looking for.
My coordinator Şevval were always on hand regardless of the time of day, to answer any queries, concerns or basic questions I had. No query was to pig or to small.
My hotel nurse Beyza was extremely friendly and so helpful in my aftercare. Again no query or request was to big or to small. She checked on me a few times a day each day and was always available through the WhatsApp group. She made my after care stay so much more comfortable.
Even after I have returned home they are still in contact to offer support and ensure everything is going well.
I would definitely recommend badge clinic for anyone seeking cosmetic surgery. I myself was recommended badge and I am so glad I chose them. My procedures were a fraction of the cost of the UK but this did not take away from the level of care and support that was provided

My whole journey with badge clinic was very professional, everyone was very friendly and helpful, from the first consultation and later on site in turkey. The ladies have looked after me very well and I want to express my gratitude. Dr. Mete has done a fabulous job, and I can’t wait to see my end results in a few months.

Gum contouring is a dental procedure that reshapes or removes excess gum tissue to create a balanced and symmetrical gum line. This not only enhances the appearance of the teeth but can also improve oral health by reducing areas where plaque and bacteria accumulate.
Gum contouring is commonly performed for:
Improving the aesthetics of a gummy smile
Correcting uneven or asymmetrical gum lines
Enhancing the appearance of short or uneven teeth
Supporting better oral hygiene by removing excess tissue
How is Gum Contouring Performed?
The procedure is minimally invasive and can be done using laser technology or traditional surgical techniques:
Consultation and Assessment: A detailed evaluation of the gum line, teeth, and smile aesthetics.
Anesthesia: Local anesthesia ensures comfort during the procedure.
Reshaping the Gum Line: Excess tissue is removed or reshaped using a laser or scalpel.
Healing and Aftercare: Patients receive instructions on oral hygiene and follow-up care.
The procedure usually takes 30–60 minutes and often requires only a single session.
Advantages of Gum Contouring
Creates a balanced and attractive smile
Corrects a gummy or uneven gum line
Improves oral hygiene by reducing plaque-prone areas
Minimally invasive with quick recovery
Can enhance the appearance of teeth without crowns or veneers
Boosts confidence and self-esteem
Recovery After Gum Contouring
Recovery is generally quick, with minor swelling or discomfort for a few days. Patients are advised to:
Eat soft foods during the first 1–2 days
Maintain excellent oral hygiene
Avoid smoking and alcohol for faster healing
Attend follow-up appointments to monitor healing
Full results are typically visible within 1–2 weeks.
Risks and Considerations
Gum contouring is safe when performed by an experienced dentist, but minor risks may include:
Temporary sensitivity of teeth and gums
Minor swelling or bleeding
Infection if post-operative care is not followed
Badge Health ensures precise treatment, high-quality care, and detailed aftercare guidance for optimal results.
