WORTH IT
Hey guys, I wanted to share my experience with Silicon Ingection removel with Dr. Gallerani I had my surgery at may 3 I am so happy with my results my situation was very bad the silicon was moving into my legs the most material I had in my hips, thanks god I removed it! Dr. Gallerani was so nice and always answered to all my questions and his team are very sweet always take care of me when I have follow up appointments :) I don’t regret that’s all his work worth all money I spent! I’m very happy with result and the scar he did!

July 7, 2020
Thank you
July 7, 2020
Thank you :)20k
July 8, 2020
Is that including the hospital fee? Does the hospital take insurance?
July 18, 2020
Oh great,,he s charging me and other 2 girls from 30 000k to 35000k
September 2, 2020
I have a few questions about your healing process
September 3, 2020
It’s going great !!!after my removal next day I had a lot of energy I did not feel tired I was walking a lot like I never even done the surgery not pain nothing just most annoying of all process was drains I had them for 2 months !
July 5, 2020
Thank God you got it out ..I am on the journey to get mines removed out as well . I want to go to Dr G but he's so expensive so I may have to go to Colombia.. but I am always happy for anyone who get it removed out of the body because I know the pain and discomfort from the silicone
July 7, 2020
Thank you I’m happy I did it! Yes it’s expensive but his work worth it! He did amazing job my case was not simple a lot of material started move on my hips if I was waiting more longer it’s could go to my legs also he accepted payments like if your surgery cost 20k you can make a schedule a year before like I did and make a payment each month before your surgery
September 18, 2020
How much did you pay for your surgery if you can dm me please
July 6, 2020
Congratulations, I get so happy to see more women removing this venom with a successful story. I really wanted to go to Colombia to remove it but with so many obstacles in my life I may end up doing it go with Gallerani. I understand he is expensive but at the end leaving the country sums up to same. Samantha did you have a lot of product? Is there a reason why he didn’t do the top scar? I saw in a previous review that he cuts in the muddle of the cheeks, is that true?
July 7, 2020
Thank you dear! I was thinking to go there too but it’s more safer I feel in USA !Yes I had like 600cc on each side also I had bbl before so it’s all mixed together.He did like this before I asked if it’s possible to do scar like this because I have modeling carrier and if I have scar at the middle it’s going to ruined my carrier he was so nice and kind he understood my situation and he did this scar I wanted!
July 10, 2020
Also the scar was like this because most of my material was on the side and hips each case is different so if you have silicon on the middle of your butt your scar will be different because he will needs to cut it different way to remove material
September 2, 2020
Can you contact me
July 6, 2020
Thank God everything went well. Did you have Vaser Lipo or was it cut out?
July 7, 2020
Thank you
July 7, 2020
I had cut out !
July 7, 2020
Where did he do the incision? I do see any scars across your buttocks which is great. But I seen his other work and some have it across. Thank you so much for responding this is so helpful
July 8, 2020
Don’t do baser lipo that makes it worst. Open procedure is recommended.
July 8, 2020
He did on the underwear line on the sides, every case is different that’s why different scar also most of the Selicon was on the side of the butt and in my hips and I asking if you could do the scar not that noticeable and he did amazing job!!! The incision he did is so tiny i even did not know it’s will be possible to do
July 7, 2020
Did he get all out? If not how much is out and do you have to go back for a second removal? Is you butt soft now? So sorry for all the questions
July 8, 2020
He cut a lot my hips is so flat but butt not it’s has nice shape I playing to do reconstruction with him so I can fix my hips but I love how my butt looks but case was a little complicated because Selicon move to my hips he remove possible he could but it’s never will be 100% we going to to another mri to check but I feel great so far no pain anymore in my legs ,he removed 6 pounds
I had done surgery a month ago my butt is soft butt hips not yet but it’s getting better everyday the discoloration is going away slowly
July 9, 2020
I am so happy for you. Is it possible if we can message each other? I like to know a bit more. I want to schedule ASAP but I am so nervous. Thank you so much

So happy and blessed with my result !

Hey guys everything is going great so far i am 1 month post op I still have two drains because I was lately to active!I have so much energy after the surgery, because I was active my drains started fill up more then before ,so when I had appointment last Friday doctor told me to rest more and drink more protein that’s very important in your recovery process!So guys better if you done surgery like this more rest don’t be to active at least 2-3months!I’m so happy so blessed I find dr Gallerani he is the best he did amazing job!!and he is so nice his team is amazing!i forgot to say about hospital when he performs the surgery I was staying there for one night! I’m so happy I did surgery in this hospital I felt so safe the nurses were checked out me all the time bring me liquid food and water and juices,asked me if I’m ok and I need anything,I felt so good when I was there and dr Gallerani went to see me the same day afternoon surgery to make sure I’m ok!
Also I wanted to say about my scar the most of my material was in my hips that’s why scar like this so if you have material in the different parts of your buttocks the scar will be different bc he will need to cut it where is the material so he can take it out ,all cases is different ,no mater what scar will be he does very tiny incision so ones it’s heal ,and you will take care of it right not going to be noticeable also you can do scar tattoo camouflage on it I sow some amazing results!how the cover the scar with colour of your skin

He has the most incredible bedside manner of any doctor, ever. He really is an angel.
October 13, 2020
Do you have a bad experience with him? I’m searching for his results
October 18, 2020
I had amazing experience with him he is the best !!! I’m planing to do reconstruction with him
October 20, 2020
I also had a great experience with him. I would not go to anyone else in this country or any other country. He and his team are amazing!
October 28, 2020
Yes I totally agree !!
April 10, 2021

Your Butt is really looking better and im glad you are feeling Healthy once again. Was the reconstruction charges separate?
October 18, 2020
Yes it’s 24000$
December 17, 2020
He is not worth it I’m about to upload pictures of my reconstruction that he did once my review of Dr Gomez’s posts Dr Gomez is the only doctor has been able to fix my body and Dr Gallerani operated on me three times he is trash! And overcharging you twice the price when you can get it done in Columbia at Dr Gomez for half of that and look twice is good his work is subpar at best
December 17, 2020
So sorry to hear that love !
Why dr Gallerani operated you 3 times ?
December 18, 2020
Because he did not remove the silicone fully in the first two surgeries and then did a reconstruction I just had another removal with Dr Gomez and another reconstruction now I am 95% silicone free when I went back to see him he was even surprised to see how much silicone he had left in me so obviously I didn’t let him touch me again
March 9, 2021
When was this ?
March 20, 2021
Omg Did you really go to Dr. Gallerani twice & he never fixed it?? I would love to go to Dr. Gomez, I’m just scared of going out the country esp with all the horrifying deaths that I hear about. But mine butt is really bad and Gallerani told me 22,000. I really want the best fixing. Not trying to go back twice and he still don’t fix it.

August 18, 2022
He can remove it if your mri will show there is silicon
Thanks god I did not had it there
August 18, 2022
First I did Removel I remember like 98% what mri shows he did really good job and the second surgery was reconstruction

Thank you because katzen seems so expensive I didn't get a quote yet but I heard raffy is cheaper but just as good?
August 25, 2022
Katzen quoted me $27k!!! That includes anesthesia and the OR fees. I’m so disappointed because he has gotten excellent reviews and during my consult, he said he would be able to do it using ultrasound guided liposuction :(

Can’t wait that is the doctor I’m going to
December 11, 2020
