Botox and dermal filler treatments are widely performed, but when administered improperly, they can cause serious and sometimes permanent injuries.

We represent individuals who have been harmed by cosmetic injections, including Botox and dermal fillers, performed in medical offices, clinics, and med spas.

If you have experienced complications beyond expected side effects, you may have a legal claim.

Types of Injection-Related Cases We Handle

We handle cases involving complications from cosmetic injections, including:

• Dermal filler injections resulting in vascular occlusion
• Lip filler complications, including tissue damage and necrosis
• Injections performed by unqualified or unlicensed providers
• Improper injection technique leading to permanent damage

Common Causes of Botox and Filler Injuries

Injection-related injuries are often caused by negligence, including:

• Improper placement of injections
• Failure to understand facial anatomy
• Use of incorrect products or dosages
• Lack of proper training or supervision
• Delegation of procedures to unqualified individuals

Serious Complications from Cosmetic Injections

While some side effects are temporary, more serious complications may include:

• Vascular occlusion (blocked blood vessels)
• Tissue necrosis (skin death)
• Infection
• Scarring
• Vision problems or blindness
• Facial asymmetry or nerve damage

When Is a Botox or Filler Complication Malpractice?

Not every adverse outcome is malpractice. However, you may have a case if:

• The injection was performed improperly
• The provider lacked proper qualifications
• You were not informed of the risks
• The provider failed to respond appropriately to complications

Do You Have a Case?

Many clients are initially told that their symptoms are normal or temporary. In some cases, that may be true — but in others, the injury is the result of preventable error.

An experienced review can help determine whether your situation may involve negligence.
