10 Leading Clinics for Cosmetic Plastic Surgery in Portugal

I want to share my impressions of the upper eyelid blepharoplasty performed by Dr. Joao Nunes da Costa on 10.2.22. I found his page on the Internet. Plastic surgeon, with experience, positive reviews. At the first appointment, he made a positive impression, calm, attentive. I received the price by email and on February 10, by 2 pm, I arrived for the operation to St.Louis Hospital in Lisboa. I could not imagine that such clinics still exist. It feels like I went back in time, 50 years ago. I was taken into the operating room dressed. The doctor literally took me to the toilet and in the toilet applied a pen on the eyelids to remove excess skin. Everything happened quickly and chaotically. In the toilet, I paid for the operation. A man was sitting in the locker room, I had to change clothes right in front of him. The operations block looked like a train station. There were people in outerwear, talking loudly on the phone. In the operating room opposite the locker room, a man was lying on the operating table, the doors were open, a backpack was lying under the table. I was taken to the operating room on the left. During the operation, the door was open, some people constantly came in and out, rummaged through the cabinets, the floor was not stable and vibrated when walking. I was very worried that during the vibration of the floor I would not be cut or sewn correctly. I'm not talking about the fact that I was worried about sterility. I experienced great fear when the operating lamp turned off, and the doctor continued his work and something strongly lay down on my left eyelid. I think the operation lasted about 40 minutes The doctor himself said that he was satisfied with his work. And I went home. I was pleasantly surprised when a message from the doctor came through in the evening, he asked how I felt. I did not have severe swelling, bruising, pain. The sutures were removed after 6 days. I experienced a state of shock. I saw a mass of hanging skin of the upper eyelids. The left eye was half the size of the right. The left eye was swollen, half the size of the right one, and it felt like some muscle had been cut in me and the upper part above the left eye was not moving from the side or was paralyzed. The doctor, already dissatisfied that I was taking so much time, assured me that everything would pass. I tried to reassure myself that the doctor was satisfied with his work, I was with a professional and you just need to be a little patient. As the swelling decreased, the extra skin on the upper eyelids sagged more and more. But the left eye did not increase and severe discomfort around the left eye continued to bother me. I sent a photo to the doctor, he reacted to my messages, but it was felt that I made him nervous. On March 4, I went to see him. He said that he sees a LITTLE excess skin, and a LITTLE asymmetry, but I had it before, and the seam is LITTLE uneven. He later confirmed that I had developed ptosis, and now I need to correct the ptosis in addition to the revision blepharoplasty. And this is much more painful and, according to him, in his practice, 2 times the elimination of ptosis did not work out the first time. Therefore, you need to be ready for the 3rd operation. He will perform a new operation for free, only I will have to pay about 50 euros for a public hospital, of course, in addition to all new expenses, you need to count the PCR test and all my visits from the Algarve to Lisbon. During the conversation, he did not consider it necessary to simply apologize for the mistake, made it clear that I only create stress. He said he would do another operation! I was not ready to make a correction with him and offered to return my money. In order to get the money back, he forced me to sign papers in which he practically relieves himself of all the consequences of the operation. Result: At the moment, 4 weeks after the operation, the left eye with a strong ptosis, damaged muscles or fibers, constant discomfort and indefinable pain around the left eye and the orbit itself. Terribly hanging skin of the upper eyelids. Not neat seams. And this is the result of the doctor's work, which he himself was satisfied with. Doctor-plastic surgeon! PS: A reminder was required to receive an official invoice. After which he explained that if I had told him about it earlier, the price would have been different. The injections in the nasolabial fold did well. But I didn't even ask for the bill.

I have read through some of the other reviews here and I feel as though the people who write somewhat negative reviews are being very ungrateful. Thee fact is, they are looking at the outer shell and not looking to the contents within. Best Hospital I have ever visited, bar none. The staff treats you like family. I have never experienced such kindness, honesty, and openness from the cleaning ladies, through the Nursing Staff, to the Doctors. I stayed for a week and a half on the third floor. If it were possible, I would give the third floor staff seven stars... five isn"t enough. Here you can get an appointment immediately. The doctor does his tests and openly discusses with you your options. The operation went as smooth as can be expected. Prices are more than fair.

Honestly, I compared Emse who was very biased at first, but on the recommendation of a friend I took my husband there for treatment. There is a huge difference between Emse and Emse from reality, especially our doctor Emre Günbey. Thank you for your great interest.

Great hospital, good cordination. I came from England to have an operation here and they had a great guy doing the hospitals English translation. He accompanied me to every analysis and my operation. The staff team on the 7th floor are to be congratulated for their work, they are good at what they do and you can tell they enjoy their line of work, it’s a pleasure to be nursed by them, thanks for such a easy transition

I am glad that our paths crossed with my dear doctor Ms. Nazli. She encouraged me to do good things throughout my pregnancy and thanks to her, my pregnancy was very happy, peaceful and healthy. I always feel very lucky to have spent the most beautiful and sensitive period of my life with Ms. Nazlı and the people she has around her.

I am a patient of Prof. Dr. Gökhan Açmaz and I was very pleased with the surgery process and hospital services. Your nurses, although young, were experienced and caring, thank you.

wasted my time,..txs

The doctors and nurses at Bona Dea Baku are very reliable, respectful, caring, and friendly. My father would not be alive today if it had not been for the excellent care he received, and the appropriate medical decisions made during his serious illness. Dr. Elqun Samedov, General surgeon, and his excellent team deserve a special thank you for their prompt response to my father's health concerns. Thank you for your kindness and care shown to my father. I am deeply grateful.

Dr. El-Seweifi has many years of experience and achieves excellent surgical results. I decided to have corrective surgery because I didn't really like the results of the first circumcision. After intensive research, I contacted Dr. El-Seweifi recorded. He spoke to me very calmly and sensitively and supported me in my decision. He predicted what has now fortunately happened: a visually and functionally perfect circumcision. So far, a lot of shaft skin had appeared in front of the glans and parts of the inner foreskin were protruding in front of the free glans. During the operation, Dr. El-Seweifi sewed exactly enough shaft skin and inner foreskin sheet to ensure a visually perfect condition. Not everything has completely healed after about 2 weeks after the operation, but it is only a matter of time. I am extremely satisfied with the entire treatment, including Ms. Rieck's always courteous manner in the anteroom. Many thanks to both of them and the surgical team! Each. I can only advise anyone who is thinking about having corrective surgery to correct their existing circumcision to do so. Clear recommendation to do this with Dr. To have El Seweifi carried out.

I attended here for Hair Transplants. My liaison contact was Burak Yildirim, international manager for the hospital. He was outstanding and so professional. Everything was arranged perfectly and communication was quick and comprehensive. On day of procedure, I was impressed with the hospital and all staff. I would have no hesitation to recommend Academic Hospital.
