I was also unaware of any side effects when I recieved an injection of "steroids" for some scar tissue on my forehead. Within a week the scar and surrounding tissue started to atrophy. The plastic surgeon (who is a true idiot, though surprisingly board certified) suggested Radiesse injections, which she overinjected and charged ME for. She did not admit that it was the Kenalog that cause the atrophy in the first place. Almost a year later, the Radiesse has worn off and now I'm left with a dent in my forehead, it's just skin and bone. I don't know what to do anymore. Some doctors are butchers, and we have to live with the results. And because it was considered a cosmetic procedure, I have no recourse.
