About
Starting his journey back in 1999, Dr. Bülent Cihantimur is also known as Dr. B, built what would become Estetik International Health Group. This network now stands among Turkey’s and Europe’s most recognized names in aesthetic care. Instead of just following trends, he helped shape modern approaches to appearance-based medical treatments. Four clinics spread across major cities - Istanbul, Bursa, Izmir, and Ankara. More than 10,000 procedures fill his surgical record, each one done under careful attention. Patients come from different places: the Middle East, various parts of Europe, and within Turkey itself. Alongside everyday individuals, public figures and prominent personalities have trusted his expertise. While titles like founder, CEO, and lead doctor apply, it's patient outcomes that define his role. Recognition beyond borders didn’t arrive overnight - it grew through consistent work year after year. A surgeon who values subtle results, Dr. Cihantimur leans on techniques that leave little trace - small incisions, gentle methods - all aimed at lasting yet understated change. Comfort matters deeply in his view, so the experience of being treated runs just as deep as the procedure itself. Because how someone feels inside affects healing, attention spreads beyond skin level. Every detail gets space, every concern finds room. Starting off with global talks, Dr. Bülent Cihantimur shares insights at major medical gatherings across continents. His book, titled “Reject Aging,” adds another layer to his presence in public discourse. Rather than just surgery, he shapes opinions through regular articles in Turkish outlets. Surgeons from distant countries seek his perspective, treating him as a reference point. Recognition followed, awards piled up from respected institutions abroad. At the 13th World Congress on Anti-Aging Medicine in 2015, held under Prince Albert II of Monaco’s name, one fact stood out that he was the sole Turkish doctor invited as Guest of Honor.

As a man, I was looking for a solution for hair loss. His 'Organic Hair Transplant' using my own stem cells worked wonders. It’s been a year and the density is incredible. The Quasar flagship clinic in Istanbul is easily the most modern medical facility I've ever seen.

My mother and I both had surgery with him. He treated us like family. His team at Estetik International (shoutout to Rehaab and Kimya) handled everything from airport transfers to 5-star hotel stays. It wasn't just surgery; it was a full luxury wellness experience.

Dr. B is remarkably honest. I went in asking for a radical nose job, and he actually talked me out of it, saying my natural nose was distinctive. Instead, he did a minor 'Simple Nose' adjustment and fat transfer. I respect a surgeon who values individuality over just making money.

I had the 'Spider Web Aesthetics' on my face and neck. I was terrified of a traditional facelift, but this was a total game-changer. No incisions, no scars, and I was back to my hotel in Istanbul the same day. It's been 6 months and my skin looks fresher every day as the collagen kicks in.

I traveled from Sweden for a BBL and fat transfer. Dr. B is truly an artist. He uses his own patented fat transfer system which made my recovery much faster than I expected. My body looks balanced and natural, not 'overdone.' He really lives up to his reputation as a top-50 global surgeon.
