A Thank You Letter from Allergan

This letter was sent out to myself, Dr. Tammy Wu, and my Modesto Plastic Surgery staff.  We had sent out one of the original letters of support for Allergan which was mentioned in this letter.

Allergan manufactures and distributes the Botox, Latisse, and Juvederm which we use very often in our Botox practice in Modesto, CA.

Highlights of this letter from the makers of BOTOX:

  • November 17th, Allergan announced that Actavis will acquire Allergan.
  • Actavis shares the long standing Allergan commitment to innovation.
  • The acquisition will probably close in quarter 2 in 2015.
  • Until then, it is business as usual for Allergan Medical.

Dear Aesthetic Customers:

I would like to take a moment to thank you for supporting Allergan over many years, and in particular, during the last eight months. Many of you sent letters and emails voicing your support for our company and our priorities. It was your voice that provided the fuel and reinforced the importance of maintaining a culture that continues to bring value to patients and customers.

As you know, on November 17th, we announced that Allergan has entered into a definitive agreement whereby Actavis will acquire Allergan. I am very pleased with this outcome and excited for the next chapter as Actavis is highly committed to the success of the Aesthetic specialty, and to providing new programs to further support the growth of Aesthetics market and your continued success. Importantly, Actavis also shares the long standing Allergan commitment to innovation, and bringing meaningful new products to market.

We expect that the acquisition will close in Q2 2015. Until then, it will remain business as usual for Allergan Medical, with no change to your representative support and continuation of the programs and services that you value, including our Allergan Partner Privileges (APP) program, Brilliant Distinctions, Direct to Consumer Advertising, and Allergan Practice Consulting services.

We know you have choices in the market, and always appreciate your choosing Allergan. We look forward to serving you and your patients during the months ahead and as we combine Allergan with Actavis later in 2015.

Sincerely,

David Pyott
