About Us
Vanity is a full-service cosmetic surgery clinic in Istanbul, founded in 2016 and licensed by the Turkish Ministry of Health. We provide cosmetic surgery, medical aesthetic and hair-transplant services at our facility in Üsküdar, Istanbul, and welcome international patients. Medical services themselves are provided under separate treatment agreements and informed-consent processes — these Terms cover the website and pre-treatment communication only.
The Website Is Informational
The content on this website — including descriptions of procedures, recovery guides, doctor profiles, blog articles, pricing indications and frequently asked questions — is provided for general information only. It is not medical advice, and it is not a substitute for a consultation, diagnosis or treatment by a qualified physician.
Browsing the website, submitting a contact form or messaging us does not create a doctor–patient relationship. A doctor–patient relationship is established only through a formal consultation with one of our licensed physicians, and any decision about surgery requires an individual examination and assessment.
Consultations and Communication
You can reach us through the website contact form, WhatsApp or telephone. Our free online consultation is a preliminary assessment based on the information and photographs you provide; it does not replace an in-person examination, and any plan or quote given online is indicative until confirmed after examination.
You are responsible for the accuracy and completeness of the information you provide, including your medical history. Our channels are not intended for medical emergencies — if you have an emergency, contact your local emergency services immediately.
Individual Results Vary
The results of cosmetic procedures depend on individual factors such as anatomy, age, skin quality, general health and healing. Before-and-after images shown on this website are of real patients who consented to their publication; they illustrate possible outcomes and are not a promise or guarantee of a particular result. Testimonials and reviews reflect individual experiences.
Medical Disclaimer
All surgical and medical procedures carry risks. The risks, limitations and alternatives relevant to you will be explained by your surgeon during the consultation and informed-consent process, and you should always seek the advice of a qualified physician with any questions about a medical condition or procedure. Never disregard professional medical advice or delay seeking it because of something you have read on this website.
Eligibility
The website is intended for users aged 18 or over. Cosmetic procedures are provided only to adults; exceptions (for example functional interventions) are assessed individually by our physicians within the limits of the applicable law.
Intellectual Property
The website and its content — including text, graphics, logos, photographs, videos and design — are owned by or licensed to Vanity and are protected by intellectual-property laws. You may view, download and print content for your personal, non-commercial use. You may not reproduce, distribute, modify or publicly display content — including before-and-after images — without our prior written permission.
Acceptable Use
When using the website and our communication channels, you agree not to:
- use them for any unlawful purpose or in breach of these Terms;
- provide false or misleading information, or impersonate any person;
- interfere with the operation or security of the website, or attempt to gain unauthorised access to it;
- scrape, harvest or systematically extract content or data from the website;
- infringe the rights of Vanity, our patients, our staff or any third party.
Third-Party Services and Links
The website contains links to and integrations with third-party services, such as WhatsApp (Meta), YouTube, Google Maps and independent review platforms. Your use of those services is governed by their own terms and privacy policies, and we are not responsible for their content or practices.
Disclaimers and Limitation of Liability
The website is provided “as is” and “as available”. While we take care to keep its content accurate and up to date, we make no warranty that the website will be uninterrupted, error-free or complete. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Vanity accepts no liability for damage arising from your use of, or inability to use, the website or its content.
Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits any liability that cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law, including liability arising in connection with medical services actually provided to you, which are governed by your treatment agreement, the informed-consent process and applicable patient-rights legislation. If you are a consumer, your mandatory statutory rights remain unaffected.
Privacy
Our processing of your personal data — including the health information you share with us — is described in our Privacy Policy, which forms part of your relationship with us.
Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. The current version, with its “last updated” date, is always available on this page, and changes apply from the moment they are published. If you continue to use the website after a change, you accept the updated Terms.
Governing Law and Jurisdiction
These Terms and any dispute arising out of or in connection with the website are governed by the laws of the Republic of Türkiye. The courts and enforcement offices of Istanbul are competent to resolve such disputes. If you are a consumer resident in another country, this does not deprive you of the protection of mandatory provisions of the law of your country of residence.
