Breast Implants in Turkey (Boob Job): Cost & Partner Surgeons in Istanbul

Breast implant surgery, commonly called a boob job, is a cosmetic procedure that enhances the breast profile by increasing size and altering shape. A breast augmentation in Turkey lets international patients access this surgery with experienced, board-certified plastic surgeons at a fraction of UK or US prices, without compromising on facility standards.

Breast augmentation is one of the most commonly performed cosmetic surgical procedures worldwide. According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, nearly 300,000 breast augmentations were performed in the United States in 2019 alone. Turkey has become a leading destination for this surgery, supported by a high concentration of trained plastic surgeons and JCI-accredited hospitals. Luna Clinic Medical Travel Services is a medical travel coordination company in Istanbul: we introduce patients to independent partner surgeons whose board certification can be independently verified.

From your first enquiry, a bilingual coordinator manages your travel, accommodation, transfers and interpretation, while every clinical decision, from suitability to implant type and placement, is made independently by your chosen partner surgeon at their own accredited facility. Luna does not perform surgery and does not guarantee outcomes.

Amounts originally quoted in another currency are converted at the ECB reference rate of 9 July 2026 (£1 = €1.17; $1 = €0.87). Your surgeon sets the final price after assessment.

How much do breast implants cost in Turkey?

Breast implant cost in Turkey typically ranges from €3,350 to €3,900, considerably lower than the £6,000 to £8,000 charged in the UK or $8,000 or more in the US. Most international patients travel on an all-inclusive package that bundles the surgical fee charged by the partner surgeon with the implants, anaesthesia, hospital stay, VIP airport transfers, 4-5 star hotel accommodation, post-operative medications and follow-up appointments into a single transparent quote.

Luna presents the surgeon medical fee and the travel coordination fee side by side, so you can make a genuinely informed comparison with home-country pricing. The final breast augmentation cost in Turkey depends on the implant type, the complexity of your case and the surgeon experience.

• Type of implant. Saline, silicone and cohesive gel (gummy bear) implants sit at different price points, and premium branded implants such as Motiva or Mentor can affect the fee.
• Surgeon's experience and reputation. Highly experienced, reputable partner surgeons typically charge more for their work.
• Facility and equipment. JCI-accredited hospitals and advanced surgical equipment influence the total package.
• Pre and post-operative care. The level of testing, anaesthesia and aftercare included changes what a package covers and costs.

Types of breast implants

Choosing the right implant is central to a natural result and long-term satisfaction. Your partner surgeon recommends the option that fits your body type and goals. Common types include:

Saline implants

Filled with sterile salt water and inserted empty, then filled in place, which allows a smaller incision. The size can be adjusted during surgery, and the body safely absorbs the saline in the rare event of a rupture.

Silicone implants

Pre-filled with a cohesive silicone gel that closely mimics the feel of natural breast tissue, with a lower risk of visible rippling than saline.

Gummy bear (form-stable) implants

Made of a cohesive gel that holds its shape even if the shell is damaged, giving firmer projection and a reduced risk of leakage.

Round and teardrop shapes

Round implants add fullness to the upper pole; teardrop (anatomical) implants follow a more natural slope. Your surgeon advises which suits your frame.

Smooth and textured surfaces

The implant surface affects how the implant sits and moves; your surgeon selects the surface based on your anatomy and placement.

Breast augmentation Turkey results and success rate

Breast augmentation is a highly refined procedure, and published figures generally report success rates around 95% to 98% when performed by an experienced surgeon on a suitable candidate. Patient satisfaction is notably high, often exceeding 90%, with many patients reporting improvements in body image and self-esteem.

A successful breast augmentation achieves the agreed size and shape without significant complications. Individual outcomes always depend on your anatomy, implant choice, skin quality and the surgeon clinical judgment. The most reliable indicator for your case is an honest pre-treatment conversation with your partner surgeon, who can show before-and-after examples comparable to yours.

Boob job recovery time

Recovery from breast implant surgery is gradual and varies by placement and how your body heals; your surgeon sets your individual timeline. The general trajectory is:

1. 1 weekSwelling, bruising and a heavy, tight feeling in the chest are normal and managed with prescribed medication. You wear a surgical support bra and avoid strenuous activity. Most patients return to desk work within 7 to 10 days.
2. 3 weeksMost initial swelling and bruising subside and the new breast shape begins to form. Light activity resumes; heavy lifting and chest exercise are still avoided.
3. 4 weeksMost discomfort has gone and light to moderate exercise can be reintroduced with your surgeon clearance.
4. 3 monthsThe implants settle, or drop and fluff, into their final position and the breasts look and feel more natural. Scars begin to fade.
5. 6 monthsFinal results are evident, with the breasts fully settled and scars continuing to soften.
6. 10-20 yearsImplants are durable but not lifetime devices. Routine check-ups and breast imaging help monitor implant condition, with replacement or removal considered over time.

How the breast implant procedure works

A boob job in Istanbul is a multi-step process, from consultation to aftercare. Your partner surgeon guides each stage:

• Consultation. Your surgeon assesses your goals, medical history and anatomy and agrees the desired size, implant type, incision site and placement.
• Medical tests. Blood tests, imaging and a general health check confirm you are ready for surgery.
• Surgery. Under local or general anaesthesia, the surgeon places the implant through a discreet incision, either submuscular or subglandular, then closes and bandages the area. Surgery typically takes 1 to 1.5 hours.
• Recovery and follow-up. You are monitored as the anaesthesia wears off and usually stay one night. A follow-up before you fly home checks your healing, then remote check-ins continue with your surgeon.

Am I a good candidate for breast implants?

Only the independent partner surgeon you consult with can confirm suitability. In general, good candidates are physically healthy, have fully developed breasts, are at least 18, and have realistic expectations. Many patients seek augmentation after pregnancy or weight loss has changed their breast profile.

If your breasts sag as well as lack volume, your surgeon may recommend combining implants with a breast lift (augmentation-mastopexy). If you plan to breastfeed in future, mention this early so the technique can be tailored to help protect the milk ducts.
