Radiesse nightmare. Will my face ever go back to its previous appearance?

anon50631
I got talked into getting radiesse in my jaw, chin, temples, and cheekbones four months ago. Doctor ruined my facial proportions. Found out later that he has a horrible rep (also did my chin crooked and refused to correct it). Will my face ever go back to it's previous appearance or will the 'collagen stimulation' mean that it's forever wider and less defined? How long before I can expect to look like my old self? I also had a rhinoplasty that didn't go well (nose wider). Thanks!
