Socialites are still trying their best to furrow their brows over the arrest of skin doc Joey Grant Luther for administering fake Botox from China — and they’re supporting each other through the ordeal in a group chat dubbed “Former Lutherans.”

Jetsetting Avenue magazine editor-in-chief Peter Davis outed himself in the publication this week as a former patient of Luther’s, later joking to Page Six, “It’s a miracle I still have a face!” 

“I visited Luther for Botox injections after being recommended by a friend with a smooth forehead and a knack for bargains,” Davis wrote in his magazine.

“Unlike other Luther clients who experienced scary symptoms like double-vision, trouble swallowing and chewing, slurred speech, heart palpitations and lightheadedness, I left JGL Aesthetics with a furrow-free forehead. But wait – were those migraines I had caused by Luther’s budget Botox from China?”

According to a release from the US Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York, one of Luther’s patients ended up in the hospital with botulism.

Anestheticians are not legally authorized to administer Botox. We hear from former clients that it wasn’t clear to them that he didn’t have the proper license.

Davis tells Page Six there were some other wrinkles that should have been a tip off.

“We heard ‘good deal’ and we all ran to the this random building,” he told us. “He rigged out his apartment downstairs to look like a real med spa.” Also, he added, “He always wanted to be paid by Venmo.”

Former patients have now started a support group called “Former Lutherans,” according to Davis. 

“They are all just freaked out and swapping information on legit new doctors,” he told Page Six. “A few doctors reached out and now I have [enough] legit Botox recommendations [to] numb the foreheads of the whole Upper East Side.”

A source previously told Page Six that the scandal is “rocking the gay community,” which was at the heart of Luther’s customer base, they said.

Along with facial injections, a source told Davis the doc also offered offered penis enlargements. 

“Joey tries to sell every guy on penis enlargement. I wonder if he ever messed up one of those people who would probably be too embarrassed to come forward. Can you imagine?,” they reportedly said, according to his magazine piece.

Former frozen-faced clients previously told Page Six they had an issue with double vision after a visit, but that it eventually went away.

Another told us, “He was charming and nice… seemed normal. Everyone is totally shocked.”

Luther, 54, was busted by the feds last week, The Post reported, and charged with wire fraud, smuggling and other crimes related to misbranded and counterfeit drugs.

He allegedly used the prescription medicine he knew was counterfeit on clients at his medical spa, JGL Aesthetics, and treated them without the proper New York state license, prosecutors said.

Luther was released last week on $100,000 bail secured by his second home in Miami Beach. He faces up to 20 years in prison.
