If i could give this doctor 10 stars i would i had my procedure march 24 just yesterday a procedure that i spent years postponing for the anxiety of. Seeing so many pictures and cases with bad results terryfing stories everywhere i checked every doctor that do silicone removal in colombia guadalajara miami usa i researched All of them rios gomez castilla pachon diaz paz juliana navia santos gallerani tansar mir hughes katzen and many more even in houston where there is a couple all of them specialists on biopolymer removal from buttocks i did consult some of them what bothered me the most is the responses of some of them basically with an awful attitude implying that i deserved this problem and the consequences and whatever your results are is what you have to live with because your stupid decisions i hated it i was already traumatized by the way the "cosmetologist" that put me this poison in 2008 lied to me saying it was collagen reabsorbible harmless i was already feeling stupid and ignorant for believed those lies i will regret that the rest of my life and i dont need a reminder of that incredibly dumb decision so i kept looking i did research on dr raffy karamanoukian too i used his creams too and when i went to pick them up and saw that beautiful and expensive looking office i felt intimidated i guess i tought i was not going to able to afford it but kept and eye on his insta and his work finally i went to an apointment thru realself i have to say is the best dr ever he treated me with compasion respect excellent attitude actually listened about my concerns he has the kind of vibe that make you feel SAFE wich i needed the most and his quote was very reasonable had my surgery today i can not believe that it took me so long to decide to go with this doctor raffy karamanoukian is the best at this ny surgery went incredibly smooth and the staff is awesome he literally saved my life my depression and anxiety were so high because of this problem i will post pictures when i finish my process but i wanted to do this post for all the silicone inyection victims to let them know that you dont have to be disfigured or cutted like a loaf of bread that this doctor CARE and focus not only on the health part wich is obviously the first thing but he put atention to the esthetical part i know all the cases are different with different symptoms and concerns and level of damage to the tissue that is the thing with this poison that no case is the aame some are more affected than others so what worked for one maybe will not work for another but the interest dr raffy showed on give me a esthetically good apearance to my buttock was what sold me to do my surgery after all that was the reason i did that dumb decision in the first place to look good and is still important to me dr raffy karamanoukian is the best so grateful and already feeling better

I'm so happy for you. I to have butt injections that I got 10yrs ago. Very depressed, anxiety, pain in lower back, & legs. Had a Consultation with Katzen. I'm going to call & get Consultation with the doctor that did your removal. Would you mind telling us the cost?... I know every case is different. Good luck on you journey :)

I went to doctor Karamanoukian for Botox or filler‘s or some thing of that sort. When I was there he had asked the typical questions - have you ever any plastic surgery before and so on. I said yes. I actually had a botched tummy tuck three years prior. He said let me take a look. He saw what had been done asked if there had been any surgery to try and correct what had been done. I told him yes, the surgeon tried 2 times to correct it. Dr Karamanoukian I feel so bad for what has happened to you and immediately said I’m going to fix this for you. I couldn’t believe it, it had been about four years of me suffering and trying to come to terms that I would just be disfigured. He’s such an amazing person let alone surgeon. He did a fantastic job I am forever grateful.
