On 10/19/2023 I paid $1,400 to Dr Antoine Hannah of la nouvelle spa in Oxnard, CA for Juvaderm. He used the product to disfigure my face. I made an appointment with him on 10/24/23 to get the injections fixed and to get my money back. The 5 days in between I have been depressed and anxious and could not even leave my home because of how hideous he made me look. This arrogant doctor refused to fix the problem or refund my money. Allergan is selling its products to irresponsible doctors who do not know how to use the product and who ruin lives. I do not have the resources to pay someone else to fix this problem. Meanwhile I am stuck at home and cannot go on job interviews I had scheduled. I am going to file a complaint with the medical board. But Allergan also needs to be held responsible because obviously they are giving their products to incompetent doctors.
i was an attractive 54 year old woman before these injections. Now I look like a raccoon skeleton.
Allergan needs to make this right. They advertise that a person's looks will improve with Juvaderm, but I am totally devastated by this experience adn the aftermath I am stuck living with.
before photos: i am with another person - looked much better
after photos: welts above my cheekbones on both sides and swelling under eyes that cause deep bags and fluid to pocket close to my nose are all caused by these botched injections. those welts were supposed to enhance cheekbones but they are way too high up. I went in to decrease jowls on sides of my mouth. The doctor totally ignored the problem I wanted corrected and ran his own agenda, thereby destroying my face. As noted above, these injections Dr Hannah jammed above my cheeks did nothing to help my original concerns and totally disfigured me to the point of depression, anxiety and agoraphobia!
Desired outcome: I want Allergan to pay a different provider to get welts, bags, pockets of fluid all gone. and need help with original request: diminishing loose skin on both sides of mouth jawline.
