However, while undergoing a routine non-surgical facial treatment in 2008 almost proved fatal. What was thought of a standard routine face peel procedure went horribly wrong, and it changed her life forever.
While speaking in an interview, the Delta Dwan singer recalled about the incident,
She said:
“I wanted to get a chemical peel on my face. It’s a normal [procedure]; it’s not even a hospital stay. They caught the laser on fire with the oxygen… the only thing I remember hearing is, ‘Get the ambulance, we’ve got a fire.’ [I had] second and third-degree burns from here down on my face, and then the flames went up into my nose and down into my lungs.”
The singer says the incident also changed her voice, which affected her career a great deal.
She said:
“It definitely changed my voice… I can tell because I’m a singer. I know how I sound, how I feel when I’m singing. It was the worst thing… I was just saying, ‘God, why me?'”
The experience devastated her and a huge impact not only her career but also her life, and it would no doubt break many strong-hearted people on their knees as well

But she says she finally found her faith in Buddhism, which she credits with helping her to deal with the trauma effectively.
Tanya told:
“That’s probably what helped me the most. I went to a monastery right outside of Aspen. I went, really, for a friend… she had gone to this monastery where there’s 20 monks, right outside of Aspen. And I really connected with it. When you have 20 women praying, laying their hands on you, and saying prayers for you, it’s pretty powerful. Very powerful. I found some sort of a strength there, and I’m going back again this year.”
To the big sigh of relief to her supportive fans, she came back for good.
