After reading some reviews about Dr. Ridenour it would appears he's a talented plastic surgeon, but I'm not convinced! My personal experience was less then stellar and down right embarrassing to me. My outcome was so terrible I didn't want to be seen by anyone and became withdrawn and depressed. He ruined my face and chances of ever improving myself, I had bad SCARRING on my nose due to a bad infection that resulted in delayed healing. I found a real Surgeon to fix the mess Dr. Ridenour made. My new Doctor couldn't believe what Dr. Ridenour did, his first mistake she said was Lasering my nose with a pulse dye laser before doing the inner work on my nose, but I think this was done because he rented the laser machine and they were comming to pick it up. Then while my nose was raw and oozing he numbed my nose with a local anesthic and that left a track mark on my nose. I was getting a filler put under a scar on my nose that look
like a dimple So Dr. Ridenour placed a filler called Gortex under the scar to elevate and smooth the scar out. Second Mistake my new doctor informed me about
was the use of Gortex as a filler under the scar on my nose because I just had my nose lasered and doing both procedures the same day could cause an infection especially if my nose rejects the Gortex implant. My new Doctor also told me Gortex should never ever ever be used as an implant on your nose. My new Doctor was right my nose got infected and since I had my nose lasered the same day my skin wasn't growing back from the scab the laser left it took two months for the skin to grow back the infection caused delayed healing.and major scarring I wanted to die. Dr. Ridenour had to drain the infection and put me on antibiotics for 2 weeks and we didn't know it was infected for at least a month and that was because my skin on my nose wasn't healing and I also got sicker then I ever been in my life from the infection.
