Botched by Dr Suleyman Tas
My Experience with Dr. Tas and His Neck Lift Procedure
In January 2023, I had a neck lift with Dr. Tas, aiming to address loose skin for a more youthful appearance. Unfortunately, the results were disappointing, leaving me with uneven lumps, sagging skin, and visible scarring (photos attached).
In November 2022, I was quoted $38,000 for the procedure and paid a $10,000 deposit. Just before the surgery, the price increased to $71,500, forcing me to scale back some procedures and pay $50,000 in cash—with no receipt provided. I felt trapped, as canceling would have meant losing my deposit.
The surgery itself was poorly handled. I experienced blurry vision due to an overdose of anesthesia, and the hospital’s care was subpar, with non-English-speaking staff and terrible facilities. Post-surgery, I noticed issues like sagging skin under my chin, which I didn’t have before, and uneven lumps that worsened over time.
When I reached out for help, communication was frustrating. Elvira, a staff member, often ignored my messages for weeks. She suggested ineffective laser treatments to buy time. Eight months later, I flew back at my own expense for a follow-up. Dr. Tas promised to fix the issues at no cost, but when I arrived, his staff demanded an additional $3,000 for minor corrections. When I refused, Dr. Tas became aggressive and dismissive, further eroding my trust.
I regret not researching more thoroughly beforehand. Later, I discovered many negative reviews on Google and Reddit that could have saved me from this ordeal.
This experience has been emotionally and financially devastating. I strongly urge anyone considering a procedure with Dr. Tas to research extensively and think carefully.
