I needed to find a doctor who was great with fillers and threads so I decided that Dr. Moammar…read morefrom Legacy MD was the man for the job. My first appt with Dr. Moammar went well, he was easy to talk to, explained what he would do and why, wrapped several things into one price and I was sold. We didn't discuss how many units of each product he would inject, but since it was rolled in one price it didn't matter. On the day of my procedure he told me about the 'triangle of beauty" which is pretty much is your cheekbones and chin. Since my own cheekbones are good, he suggested to inject Radiesse into my chin to enhance it, to "complete the triangle".
After my procedure I kept noticing ugly dents in my chin, when I was smiling or talking the dents were even more visible and everyone was noticing. Also, one side of my chin looked heavier, still does, I guess that's where he injected more, so the overall front looks lopsided. I texted MD Legacy my photos and Dr. Moammar said it was an easy fix so I scheduled another visit. On the day of my appt he was 30 min late which was fine it happens, but when I was finally in the room discussing my concerns he told me he was late for his next appt and that we needed to hurry. He had to rush for his next client because there was new money still to be made and my problems were just nuisance to him.
Anyway. He said to fix it he was going to add the hyaluronic acid filler to soften up my chin contours, to make dents disappear. But before he started he said 'I will give you a good deal on the price for the filler...' to which I responded that I wasn't the one who deformed my chin so I won't be the one paying to fix it. He responded 'ok, ok, I will take a hit for you on this one...' it was extremely uncomfortable, it's his job to fix his own damage at all costs, not to make deals. Then Dr. Moammar said 'well, at least now we know that Radiesse is not good on chins'. Wait a second, 'now we know?'
I've never asked how many chins he had injected with Radiesse, but I assumed a ton since he so confidently offered to do it on me. Radiesse is as hard as the cement, so I was sure he knew what he was doing. After 4-6 months my chin was still dented, lopsided, I've learned not to smile much to hide dents. I had to train myself how to speak in front of the mirror to not attract attention to my chin. Every time I look at myself in the mirror all I can think is "MD Legacy". I learned one thing, either Radiesse doesn't belong in chins or it needs to be injected by someone who knows what they are doing, a real pro.
If that's not bad enough, I still have a bulge puckering on my forehead. Not only threads did no brow lift at all, they added a bulge. That's another thing that Dr. Moammar told me he does a lot, a browlift, because I asked, I always do. The forehead requires great skills as it's flat surface. When I think about this whole thing, I should've just insisted on Botox in the jawline like I had originally wanted and gone home golden. But Dr. Moammar's the 'triangle of beauty' story and the necessity of the Radiesse made me go for it. He could've used a more fluid filler like Juvederm, but that would've meant 3-4 syringes and since he had already given me one price for all, it would've been not cost effective to him.
UPDATE: It is March, 2022 and my chin is still disgusting. I texted my photos to MD Legacy and received response from Whitney, their new office manager, who said "I would love to help you in any way". I responded that the only help I need right now is a refund so I could fix it with sometime who knows how. She disappeared like they all did once saw a word 'refund'. How does a doctor look at himself in the mirror knowing that he disfigured someone's face? How do they just go on with their life. I hope my review will help people in the future to decide what not to do. Had I read a similar review before my own procedure, I would've done so many things differently.
