Worst Experience and Left with Deformities

Dr. Rahi was supposed to inject PLLA in my temples and cheeks. She injected diluted radiesse instead AND into my forehead. I had a baseball size bump in my forehead and a hardened bump in my cheek. She then injected steroids. I have huge deformities and hypopigmentation. I had two other doctors tell me that I could have died or been left blind (not FDA approved in forehead) and that I would need at least minimum 6 IPL treatments back to back, filler to try to fill in the divots and I would likely never have my skin return to normal. A follow up, she injected saline into both spots then used forma laser on my cheek to try to help with the lumpiness. I asked her if she could use the machine on my left side since it is for tightening and sculpting and now I would also deal with assymetry. Her reply, "No, that would be considered a full facial treatment. I am just doing the areas where the indents are to try to fix them. " After sending her the two doctor recommendations for treatment, she emailed me that she no longer felt comfortable treating me but she would refund me $450 if I needed to sign a release of liability and never post a review or photos.

Yesterday, I saw a reputable plastic surgeon. I was informed that these divots may not ever completely heal and after 8 months, I might need to have the divot in my forehead cut out and stitched. I was injected with juvederm to try to camouflage the areas totaling $2,400. I was also told that I will need IPL and the hypopigmentation might also not return. I have not heard back from Dr. Rahi for any other compensation for what was done to me. I forgot to mention that I venmo her $1,350 so she could avoid a credit card fee.
