Ruined my Face ;'(

I had 6 sessions of radiofrequency done in London. I wanted to rejuvenate my skin after having done 3 months of night shifts. I booked a consultation of a skin booster to improve the condition of skin around my mouth and thought it would be amazing to treat the skin around my eyes as I thought I had bags in some photos. At my consultation I was told there's a much better treatment for the issues I wanted to address and within 10 minutes I was sold radiofrequency. After 2 sessions I noticed the lines around my mouth being more prominent and my skin looking more dull in general. This led me to googling side effects of radiofrequency which came up with lists and lists of women complaining how they lost their facial fat after this treatment...I went back to the clinic to try to swap a treatment for something else as I didn't want to lose money and they had a no money back policy. I was told it was scientifically impossible and I shouldn't read into what's being said online as no such cases have been reported. She added it was still the best, most miraculous treatment for people my age(I was 29) and I should carry on without worries. I wish I had walked out then and forgot about my £3000 because now I will have to spend a lot more money trying to look ok. After the last treatment I already knew what I read about was in fact happening to me. My cheeks were gone, my eyes became hollow and my forehead which was previously as smooth as a baby's butt was suddenly all bumpy. It's like i aged 10 years over 6 weeks :( I got so depressed I couldn't sleep for weeks and eventually opted for radiesse to get some of the lost volume back. Although I am pretty happy with the results radiesse couldn't tackle the orbital fat i lost around my eyes and yes I got cheeks now, but my face will never be back to my old shape. It's been 11 months since i got radiesse and my radiofrequency damages skin is slowly reappearing so I thought I'd leave this review and warn other women...you don't want to live with this regret and this responsibility for destroying your own face. Please do not trust these practitioners, they're not dermatologists, they're there to sell you stuff and make money, please think twice. I am attaching some photos, its been very hard for me to make these before and after(2 months apart) I spent all of today crying.
Hope I can make a difference and save a face.
