International Patients
Top Surgery in Turkey
FTM top surgery in Istanbul with Dr. Serkan Dinar, planned around you — from your first consultation through to your recovery.
Top Surgery Abroad
FTM top surgery in Istanbul, for patients travelling from abroad
Top Surgery Care provides FTM top surgery in Istanbul, Turkey, for international patients. Top surgery, also called chest masculinization surgery, removes breast tissue and reshapes the chest to create a flatter, more masculine contour. It's one of the most common gender-affirming procedures for transgender men and non-binary patients.
Having top surgery abroad involves more than the operation itself. This page brings together what you'll want to know in one place: who your surgeon is, which techniques are available, how travel and arrival are coordinated, and how recovery and follow-up are supported.
Your Surgeon
Dr. Serkan Dinar
Your surgery is led by Dr. Serkan Dinar, a plastic, reconstructive, and aesthetic surgeon with more than 20 years of surgical experience. Which technique and surgical plan are considered for you is decided together with Dr. Dinar during your consultation.
Surgical Techniques
Available surgical techniques
Three techniques are available: Double Incision, Periareolar and Keyhole. Which one is considered depends on chest size, skin elasticity, and your desired result — decided individually with your surgeon, not by a fixed formula.

For Patients in the UK
Top surgery in Turkey for patients from the UK
If you're based in the UK and considering top surgery abroad, the process is the same as for every international patient: an initial consultation over WhatsApp, a surgical plan agreed before you travel, and coordination support from arrival through recovery. A number of our patients travel from the UK to Istanbul to arrange their top surgery privately.
You can follow every stage in detail on the Patient Journey page.
