Hey all, I have posted several times on here. I am devastated about my tissue loss in my forehead. I am trying to pursue a lawsuit against a plastic surgeon in Michigan. My doctor tried to cover it up by immediately injecting me with a filler at MY COST and telling me it would last 5 years. Well guess what, 11 months later it disappeared and I got my medical records and found it it was cause she injected me with KENALOG 40! I only have one more year to file a complaint and so far this is hard. We really need to figure out a way to start a class-action lawsuit against bristol-Meyers-Squibb. Keep calling them, every little complaint helps! These doctors could care less about us! I have had to be put on anti-depressants because my situation is right in the middle of my forehead. I am disfigured from a small procedure. One surgeon I went to mentioned how hard it was to utilize Kenalog 40. It has to be diluted PRECISELY or else it will most definitely 'cause atrophy. This has to stop!!!!

I was injected with Kenalog 30 days in my left temple area for alopecia. I too am now horified with the craters I now have. I am very interested in getting involved in a class action lawsuit against the drug company but am not sure how to go about it. SS in San Diego

I am so sorry about your forehead. Would you please tell me how many injuections you received and how many visits? Approximately how large is the depression? I have 2 that are like thumbprints and I am scared to death that they may get larger. Thanks very much.

I completely understand and agree. I received 3 injections in my face 2 months ago, since then I have developed 3 large dents in my face. I am horrified and embarrassed to leave home. I don't know what to do; could this be medical malpractice? I was not warned of the possible side effects at all, and now I am disfigured!!!

Thanks for any advice...Andrew
