UPDATE I WENT TO TOTAL MED SPA ALLEN AND THEY FIXED THE BOTCHED JEAUVEA I DID NOT ASK FOR, and they…read moremade it look 1000000 times better.
I've got over 100 units, have spent thousands between June-July, to get my smooth forehead back. Over night.
Woke up, went and got my forehead done, and it didn't work 50 units of xeomin, went back, 2 weeks later, got another 50, went back AGAIN for another 50....Then came to Lux to get the 60 units of Botox (not of something I did NOT want-I specifically asked and pushed for Botox).
My body is obviously rejecting the tox's. Xeomin/Jeauvu.
So, my original Dr, who I've been going to for 5 years, injected 100-200 units, of xeomin and it failed.
So, I ventured out the box to go here. To get Botox.
Brooke was great.
However, how dismissed I got treated after spending $600 for my forehead to look like this (well over a grand in total) because they wanted to try a "new better product" which I explained i was not comfortable with, but they did anyway......
And now I'm walking around like this, after now, almost 200 units of tox in less than 2 months has been put in my forehead.
Is it either of the injectors fault? No!!! Not at all, however the way I was dismissed and told
"You need to go to a plastic surgeon that's never happened to a client" like too bad so sad, we will just take your $600 and not even try to help figure it out, or help you. Super dismissed.
Botox is my only self esteem, feel good thing. Gross, I know, but to be dismissed so blunt and zero kind of accountability for putting an tox in, i specifically said "probably won't work" promised it would "work better" and not even trying to figure it out after spending that amount, has left me pretty hurt and upset. No one who cares, or is professional says "sorry too bad don't know what to tell you", just really had rubbed me the wrong way. I DID NOT WANT JEAUVEA I WANTED BOTOX.
TO BE CLEAR. I don't think she was mean, or rude intentionally or even at all, it's just the fact, I just paid to get 60 units that failed, with a tox i DID NOT WANT in the first place, because of this very reason. I know Botox works, anything else dissolves but they were adamant on jeauvau or whatever it's called. And here are the results, a month post 200 units of different tox (they did 60 units of jevueau) which again, I said I wanted Botox, but kept getting told "this is better"
Shouldn't look like this less than a month-a month later-a month later, and that's why I wanted Botox, and not jeauveau.
Current pics of "a month post jeauveau" Vs what I looked like RIGHT BEFORE this last injection nightmare. It was smooth, didn't wrinkle or fold like that, not all patchy and botched looking.
My forehead looks worse post all this, than it did pre my 3 month touch up (Over the past couple of months over 100 tox's only 60 at Lux).
I'm upset because I KNEW a new tox WOULD NOT work, it never does, and I went with the pushy suggestion and ended up with a really unfortunate looking forehead. Barbie doesn't like the word "botched" but that's exactly how I feel with this forehead. And flushed $600 down the drain for this not ok. My forehead looks worse than it did pre visit.
When a customer asks for Botox, do not sway them, I knew this would happen, which is why I kept on pushing to stick with Botox. But "something better" was being used, and it's obviously not better, at all, because it failed.
A $600 fail to some nothing, but for me. It is. This was my 3 times a year only thing I do for myself. And I'm left looking bad. 5 years. Never in my 5 years doing this, has it ever looked this horrible, even pre Botox.
The suggestion was "go see a plastic surgeon i have no idea". I don't have money to see a plastic surgeon. The only "plastic surgery" I get, which is not even plastic surgery is Botox.
That's it. Had we of just gone with what the customer feels comfortable with (BOTOX) then it wouldn't be this bad, I knew immediately the highly pushed one, would not work. If the Botox would have failed, I would have been content, but because a new product was pushed, and not really given the option I wanted.
Give the customer what they ask for please. If they ask for Botox, give them Botox. Don't sway them please.
