Specialists who complete this training carry the title "Op. Dr." (Operatör Doktor). We have not yet been able to confirm the details of his medical school and residency from a public source, so we have not listed them here; this section will be updated once they are verified.

Areas of interest

Public clinic profiles describe Dr Rahimli's practice as spanning both aesthetic and reconstructive plastic surgery, with interests including:

• Facial aesthetics, including rhinoplasty and facial rejuvenation
• Body contouring
• Breast surgery
• Reconstructive procedures

At BBL Turkey, Dr Rahimli performs our body-contouring procedures, including the Lipo 360 BBL, the Skinny BBL for slimmer patients with limited donor fat, and hip dip correction. Each plan is based on the patient's measurements, skin quality and available fat, and on what can be done safely in one operation.

Choosing between these procedures depends largely on how much fat can be harvested and where it sits. Patients with a lower body mass index may be better suited to a Skinny BBL, which aims for a subtle, proportionate change, while patients with more donor fat can often achieve a more noticeable reshaping of the waist and hips. Your surgeon will explain which option is realistic for you during the consultation, rather than promising a particular size or shape in advance.

Consultation and care with BBL Turkey

Patients who choose Dr Rahimli go through the same structured pathway as every BBL Turkey patient:

• Online photo assessment: you send photographs and a short medical history so the surgical team can confirm whether you are a suitable candidate and recommend a procedure.
• Video consultation: before travelling, you can talk through the plan, realistic results, risks and recovery, and raise any concerns.
• Pre-operative tests: once you arrive in Istanbul, blood tests and an anaesthetic review are carried out in a JCI-accredited hospital; surgery proceeds only if the results allow it.
• Surgery and hospital stay: the operation is performed in an accredited hospital with in-patient monitoring afterwards.
• Follow-up: you have check-ups before your flight home and remote follow-up throughout your recovery.
