Botched

I would like to share my experience with Dr. Mahira Tanovic. Initially, I believed she had helped me, but over time, it became clear that the situation had worsened significantly. Dr. Tanovic claimed to be highly skilled in removing biopolymer; however, my experience suggests otherwise.

She performed surgery on me in 2020, but the results were unsatisfactory. Unfortunately, I felt like an ongoing experiment rather than a valued patient. When my insurance expired, she left my treatment incomplete and expected me to pay out of pocket for additional corrections necessitated by her initial work.

Eventually, I sought help from another surgeon, Dr. Alberto S. Gallenari, who successfully removed the remaining material and reconstructed the damage caused.

For anyone considering biopolymer removal, I urge caution when selecting Dr. Tanovic. Based on my personal experience, I do not believe she has the expertise required for this delicate procedure.

I was curious about your results. Unfortunately, I'm NOT surprised to hear that you're dissatisfied with the subpar work she provided. I can relate, as I had a similar experience where i was left botched. I had to go to Colombia to get fixed and my Colombian Dr sympathized with me and literally laughed at the mediocre work Tanovic did on me. Thank God for qualified Drs. He fixed me right up. I wish you luck!!! I was in your shoes once. So I know your pain.
