All EsteCenter prices are all-inclusive (hotel, transfers, tests, medications, 12-month follow-up). Canadian prices typically exclude aftercare and require additional appointments.
Every EsteCenter package includes: the procedure, 5-star hotel, VIP airport transfers, pre-op blood tests, aftercare medications, English-speaking coordinator and 12 months of post-op follow-up support.
Why Is Turkey So Much Cheaper?
The price difference is not because Turkish clinics use inferior equipment or less-qualified surgeons. The reasons are structural:
- Lower cost of living: Staff salaries, property and operating expenses in Istanbul are a fraction of Toronto equivalents.
- Volume and specialisation: Istanbul clinics perform cosmetic surgery at scale, reducing per-procedure cost.
- Currency advantage: For patients paying in CAD, the exchange rate creates a further discount.
Is the Quality Comparable?
Yes — when choosing a JCI-accredited clinic with ISAPS-affiliated surgeons. EsteCenter meets both criteria. The savings are entirely structural — not a reflection of lower standards or less experienced surgeons. For a procedure-specific breakdown, read our rhinoplasty Turkey vs Canada comparison.
