A Turkish plastic surgery clinicshared before-and-after photos of a man’s facial transformation, and people remarked that he looked so different he might have to double-check when looking at himself in the mirror.

The patient underwent three procedures to drastically alter his appearance: a rhinoplasty (nose job), a lower blepharoplasty (lower eyelid rejuvenation), and orthognathic surgery (jawline correction), according to the Este Hospital.

Highlights
  • A Turkish plastic surgery clinic shared photos showing a man's drastic facial transformation after three aesthetic procedures.
  • The patient underwent a rhinoplasty, lower blepharoplasty, and orthognathic surgery to alter his appearance.
  • Turkey attracts over 100,000 people annually for cosmetic surgeries due to costs being about significantly lower than in Europe and the US.

Turkey has become a hotspot forcosmetic surgery. More than 100,000 people a year come to the Southeastern European country for surgeries like rhinoplasty, tummy tucks, breast reductions, chin implants, lip fillers, and breast implants, as perClinic Spots.

    People were baffled by the man’s transformation, which shows him with a slimmer nose, a chiseled jawline, and no under-eye bags.

    “That’s another human,” one commenter said.

    “Outstanding work, but that’s not a correction; that’s a twist. I mean, he’s really a different person!” a separate user agreed.

    “Do you still recognize yourself by looking in the mirror?” a third netizen added. “He has become a totally different person…”

    “Was he trying to change his identity and hide from authorities?” someone else joked after another user said the man “needs a new identity” as a result of his transformation.

    Another individual praised the surgeon’s work, writing, “I’m againstsurgery, but damn, it looks so natural.”

    “Remarkable difference. He must be thrilled,” wrote somebody else.

    These three procedures helped the man achieve “the Golden Ratio,” the Istanbul clinic said, a concept that refers to the symmetry and proportions of facial features.

    Applied to facial aesthetics, it states that when a line is divided into two parts in a ratio of 1: 1.618, it creates proportions that some view as harmonious and more appealing.

    As theCentre For Surgery notes, the Golden Ratio should be seen as only one among many tools or perspectives to understand facial attractiveness.

    “While the Golden Ratio offers a framework, it’s crucial to factor in individual uniqueness and overall facial harmony when considering cosmetic enhancements,” the center advises.

    It's the same, look at the birthmarks. But different lighting and haircut.

    The first pics are mainly just due to lens angles - the nose is so close to the phone-camera that it's massively magnified, giving a totally distorted view of the whole face.

    Not even the ears look the same - and those are usually a "tell". That's some spy-movie level workmanship...

    Hmmm.... 3 procedures - nose, eyes, and jawline. So why are the ears in the "before" twice the size as the "after"? And the ears stick out in the after.

    Every shape and proportion of both ears are exactly the same, including the location of the piercing. The only thing different are the haircut, the shave, and the lighting.
