In 2013, Meryem Uzerli left the “Magnificent Century” project, but even today in the memory of many fans she remains the majestic red-haired beauty Hurrem Sultan. Frightened of remaining hostage to one role, the actress radically changed her appearance. She did not reshape her face - the nose, eye shape and lower third of the face (areas that are usually the first to be corrected) remained the same, but limited herself to changing her copper hair color to platinum blonde and losing 10 kg. It would seem that this is a trifle, because millions of women around the world experiment with weight and hair color several times a year. Why did the majority of fans react negatively to the change in the image of their favorite actress?
Meryem Uzerli's face before and after
The girl is quite critical of her own appearance and does not consider herself irresistible. According to her, beauty is an illusion that cannot be relied on. It’s hard to disagree with such reasoning: in her youthful photos, Miryem does not look like an absolute beauty, although her huge eyes and graceful mouth make her face memorable. Nevertheless, the producers of the series noticed the potential of the young actress, and the make-up artists and costume designers of the Turkish series masterfully did their job, turning her into the delightful Roxalana-Hurrem.
Meryem Uzerli does not look so impressive without bright makeup, rich jewelry and exquisite outfits, but she relies on her individuality and charm. The actress focuses on her lips, for example, clearly adding volume to them, leaving the “noticeable” shape of the mouth unchanged. For this purpose, contour plastic surgery is used - an injection cosmetic procedure, during which hyaluronic filler is injected into the red border of the lips. It is possible that Meriem corrects her cheekbones, which have become more prominent, with filler. Unfortunately, the effect of contouring lasts no more than a year, so this procedure must be done regularly. However, these are just our assumptions, because... The actress herself leaves questions about the transformation of her appearance and possible plastic surgery unanswered.
Plastic surgery
Uzerli decided to experiment with her first appearance after the birth of her daughter. It all started with a change of image; she unexpectedly abandoned her fiery red hair color in favor of a traditional platinum blonde. Changes also occurred with the celebrity’s figure; her appetizing roundness disappeared.
In addition, the actress began to wear very provocative outfits, which are not appropriate for decent oriental girls to wear. However, these rules did not apply to Meryem; she regularly appeared on carpets in transparent dresses with an open back, provoking those around her.
Beauty injections
The thinner Uzerli became unrecognizable, so all the journalists hovered around her, and that’s when the first rumors appeared about plastic surgery, which the Turkish cinema star allegedly secretly performed.
The rumors were fueled by photographs showing Meryem Uzerli before and after plastic surgery.
Plastic surgery specialists confirm that the actress performed manipulations on her face:
- We can say with confidence that she did contouring, namely filler injections, when gel-like solutions are injected under the skin. Their main task is to replenish the volume of tissues and nourish them. Using the procedure, irregularities in the skin are removed and facial contours are corrected.
- Botox injections also did not go unnoticed by the actress; with the help of them, the star of “The Magnificent Century” corrected the nasolabial fold. Botulinum toxin injections also helped smooth out facial wrinkles. In the photo before and after plastic surgery there are clear signs of rejuvenation, Meryem’s skin has noticeably smoothed out in the corners of the eyes and between the eyebrows.
However, these changes are not long-lasting; the positive effect disappears quite quickly. Soon Uzerli was again seen at an appointment with cosmetologists and surgeons.
One of the most famous Turkish surgeons, Simon Uryan, claimed that the actress resorted to surgery to change the shape of her chin. Uzerli herself did not comment on this news; the girl neither confirmed nor denied the information given by the doctor.
Although the photographs that Meryem herself posted this year on her page on the social network Instagram prove that surgical intervention did take place. The chin has really changed, it began to have smoother lines, a beautiful oval.
Increased lip volume
The actress’s lips, which dramatically added volume, did not go unnoticed by fans. But many felt that there was no great need for this procedure. Meryem had a naturally good shape, but the procedure made them vulgar, like a duck's beak.
However, this effect is not present in the photo now; probably, the girl heeded the advice of fans and stage colleagues and refused fillers. By 2021, she once again shines with her pleasant and natural smile, which her many subscribers love so much.
Figure of Miryem Uzerli before and after
It’s no secret that in the east they value rounded female forms, so for the role of Hurrem the actress gained 10 kg. Working hard on the set, stress and pregnancy caused her to gain another 10 kg. To regain her former shape, the actress had to get rid of 20 kg! According to her, it was not difficult to do this, because... Exercise and proper nutrition helped, not liposuction. Today Miryem Uzerli is happy with her body and posts photos in a swimsuit on the Internet.
What operations did not take place?
The Turkish cinema star is often accused of abusing plastic surgery. This is due to the fact that Uzerli became unrecognizable in a short time.
Today we can say for sure that in 2022 she did not resort to the following operations:
- Blepharoplasty , the fact that Uzerli underwent this procedure has been discussed for a long time. But the information turned out to be incorrect; children’s photographs of the eye shape do not differ from recent photographs. Their shape remained the same, the same as it looks now. The only thing Meryem used was to emphasize the shape of her eyebrows with the help of tattoos and learn how to correctly apply sculptural makeup that hides imperfections and emphasizes the advantages of her face.
- Rhinoplasty - this procedure is also not on the list of operations that the Turkish actress has resorted to. Changes in the shape and size of the nose in photographs are caused by improper lighting and poor makeup, and not plastic surgery. This was confirmed by several surgeons at once.
- Mammoplasty - this operation is also excluded, although it has been repeatedly attributed to the actress. There have never been significant fluctuations in breast size, even in the postpartum period. The only thing the star could decide on was a lift after losing weight.
Another operation that Uzerli is often accused of is liposuction. The girl actually managed to get rid of 10 extra pounds, but this did not happen thanks to surgery, but through hard training and proper nutrition.

And the steel may break
Filming the series took up almost all of the actress’s personal time. In a foreign country, she had to work not only on the role, but also on herself. Ignorance of the language made work much more difficult, so in her free time the girl studied Turkish.
During all three years of participation in the project, Uzerli practically lived with her role and work. The circle of communication was limited only to colleagues. For example, a friendship began with actress Nur Aisan, who played the role of Makhidevran. The girls spent a lot of time together, chatting over a cup of tea or wandering around the park. They were brought together by their common origin: both were born in Germany.
But in May 2013, Meryem Uzerli unexpectedly decided to leave the project. She was not stopped by the fact that there were only a few episodes left to film until the end of the season. She later commented on her departure as a forced measure. The public voiced two versions of the main character leaving the series:
- The fact is that the actress’s health was undermined, and upon arrival in Germany, the girl underwent rehabilitation in one of the clinics in Berlin. At this moment, Meryem Uzerli’s personal life changed. After recovery, the actress announced to the public that she was expecting a child from her ex-boyfriend Can Ates.
- Another version was based on financial disagreements between the artist and the producers. According to the contract, Meryem Uzerli and Halit Ergench (the actor who played the role of Sultan Suleiman the Magnificent in the film and partner) were supposed to receive the same fees. However, the actor was paid an order of magnitude higher salary. It was this fact that became the stumbling block and the reason for the star’s departure from the project.
The series brought the actress instant success. Just yesterday, a simple girl became famous overnight. In Turkey, Uzerli was awarded the titles “Best Actress” and “Most Popular Woman”. The image of Hurrem Sultan became iconic for the Ottoman Empire and modern Turkey. Here this woman had a special position and the love of the people, and the harmonious performance of the role on the screen brought Uzerli and the people’s love.
Despite the fact that after leaving the series another actress took her place, Meryem received invitations to film in numerous projects (“Courage”, “Mother Wound”). However, the mark of Roksolana remained on her forever.
