Dr Erel was the second dr I had a consultation with when going for my chin lipo. When I met Dr Erel I felt so much more at ease than the other dr I spoke to from another team in central london. I knew I was in the right place. I am now 6 weeks post op and I do not regret my decision. Dr Erel was very transparent with the procedure and told me not to worry as he would make sure I am not scared during the procedure. During the procedure Dr Erel and his team had some background music playing and Dr Erel even sang a few lyrics, all of this helped towards making sure I was not anxious and it truly worked. I am happy with my results and I can see the difference, however it is not a crazy difference where people have noticed, rather it is a subtle change which had greatly enhanced my confidence. The nurses were also very kind and supportive during my short stay. I felt very cared for. The receptionist are also always easy to get ahold of and dedicated a lot of time to any queries I had.

My experience with Dr Erel has been fantastic. I had a saddle nose deformity before hand and was anxious about my appearance as a result. I was quite nervous about going into a rib graft procedure but Dr Erel explained everything in great detail. The entire experience, from the initial consultation, to the actual surgery to the aftercare has been great. Every question and query I had was answered perfectly. The end result is really everything I asked for. I was worried going into the procedure that I wouldn’t get what I wanted but the final result is better than anything I could’ve hoped for. My family and friends have commented on the end result and my confidence has greatly increase. Thank you!

I was very hesitant looking for a surgeon for a nose job but I have always been self conscious about my nose as it was out of proportion to my face. I had previously had a consultation with a surgeon however they were looking at a more invasive way of doing it. So after a few years I discovered Dr Ertan Eral, and we spent a lot of time talking about my nose and how it made me feel and discussing the issues with it. He then went into detailed diagrams around the different areas of the nose and was telling about my nose health and how it wasn’t deviated and showing how he can change it to suit my needs but also being very realistic. Rather than me thinking I can have anything I wanted. So that was also very reassuring. In the process he had also showed some 2D examples of how it could possibly look and also for safeguarding reasons I had to be signed off by a psychologist. The main swelling and bruising went down within the week and I even attended a friends wedding with a plaster and I was already in awe of how I looked. Everyone had complimented how natural it still looked as they had concerns it would be too drastic. Over the few months the feeling started to come back and still seeing the swelling going down over the last 4 and a half months. It really has made me feel super confident as prior I wouldn’t like to look in side mirrors or take photos of my self and I was also embarrassed if people were to stand next to me as I hated how my side portfolio looked. But now I don’t ever think about it. I’m very confident and love my nose. To also think there is still a little swelling on the tip that will still go down. So overall my experience couldn’t have gone better. I hope this helps anyone is scared about looking at rhinoplasty.

Dr Erel took time to understand what issues I wanted addressed with my septorhinoplasty, and delivered great results. My bridge was straighter and breathing issues much improved. About 9 months post surgery I opted for steroid injection to address swelling on one side of nose. Dr Erel was friendly, personable and explained things to me well. Overall, I'm very satisfied with my results.

Everything was explained to me including risks that I was taking. We did have some complications with nerve damage however I was advised my nerves would repair which they have. Yes it was scary at the time but Dr Erel was confident they would repair and he was correct! His knowledge is amazing and I felt comfortable throughout! You’ve changed my life thank you Dr Erel!
