I wont name my Dr but he did come up w/this proceedure of non-surgucal nose job. Will I ever do this proceedure again, probably not. Am I happy that my "sloped" nose looks better, yes...BUT...The tip of my nose is extremely red and has not diminished in the 4 months since my proceedure, so now I can't leave the house w/out make-up.

There is constant pain in my nose, not unbearable but uncomfortable. I went back to my Dr after a month asking about these problems and he acted "put off" by these concernes of mine. For the amount of money I paid him he should be a little more concerned with my issues. I was never advised that my nose could turn permanently red and I feel the dr should have tried to "correct" this rudolph-nose w/laser or something.

Will I ever go back to this Dr...NO and unfortunatly I have not told friends to go to him either due to his "after treatment" attitude. So be prepared if you get this proceedure done you may have constant discomfort and redness to your nose, something I was never informed of.

Also, really check out your doctor, I figured mine was the best because he discovered this proceedure, now I don't believe he was the best and am actually disapointed in him! My nose no longer droops downward but the left side looks a bit "fatter" then the right (which I told him about also) and it appears a slight bit crooked also..Again this Dr didn't see the problem but its not his nose I guess why should he care other than its his "name" on my proceedure.

After proceedure completed and follow-up concerns presented I feel this Dr. was unconcerned and actually kind of rude. Seemed to not want to correct the issues I saw w/the original results.

I'm so sorry the procedure didn't work out for you. :( How is your nose tip doing now -- any better?

Sorry about your experience . but jeez just say his name already - Dr Rivkin right? Just a little obvious. Thats what we are here for to help each other and if you do not name your Dr others will not be helped. Anyway why do you care? Evidentially you are not going back to him so who cares?

"Not worth it" cares and it is her or his story and doctor so respecting his or her choice regarding naming the doctor is warranted. If you want to know who a doctor is, email the person and ask.

In los angeles? Claiming he "discovered" the procedure? I concur with Mark, it's gotta be Rivkin.

Sorry to hear that. Some doctors don't seem concerned about their patients concerns. That is so unprofessional.

Sorry that you are not happy with the final result but I feel that it is your obligation to name the doctor so that other people can avoid having such a mishap occur. As for the redness maybe dull the red down with some concealer?
