Dr. Ridenour is a board-certified surgeon with vast experience in primary and secondary (revision) rhinoplasty. He performs both open and closed rhinoplasty techniques depending on the needs of the patient and has performed thousands of rhinoplasty procedures over the course of his career. He is fortunate to have been mentored by some of the great rhinoplasty surgeons of the modern day and he is known for his natural and realistic results. Today's rhinoplasty operation is much different and more natural in appearance. Dr. Ridenour believes in the principle of structure rhinoplasty. The result is a nose with improved shape that looks natural but is strong enough to resist change over time.

Face and Neck Lifts

Dr. Ridenour is one of the most experienced face-lift surgeons in the Midwest and St. Louis Area. He has been performing the face-lift operation for more than 20 years and averages about 100 face-lift operations each year. He has visited and learned from many of the best face-lift surgeons in the world and has taught the face-lift operation to residents and fellows at the prestigious Washington University St. Louis for over 10 years. Perhaps more than any other cosmetic operation, the result of a face-lift operation depends on the judgement and experience of the surgeon. It is commonly believed the most face-lift surgeons don't gain the kind of experience necessary to perform the operation at the highest level until they have been in practice for at least 10-15 years. No amount of pratice or education takes the place of experience.

A True Artist

Besides having been chief of plastic surgery at one of the most renowned medical centers in the country, Dr. Ridenour knows more about skin than many dermatologists. Whether you want surgery, fillers or botox, he is a true artist. Part of the reason I look young for my age is genetics, the rest is due to Dr. Ridenour.

Incredible Natural Results! Dr. Ridenour is a Perfectionist! A+++

After viewing countless videos and photos of famous surgeons showcasing their patients before and after surgery, I am so happy I chose Dr. Ridenour to rejuvenate my face and neck. I am almost six weeks post-op, and I could not ask for better results! I would put his work up against any surgeon in the country! I am fifty years old and had sagging skin (laxity), jowls, wrinkles, an aging neck, loss of volume, and aging above and under my eyes. To correct my problems, Dr. Ridenour masterfully performed a complete deep plane brow, mid, and lower facelift, and neck lift, transconjunctival lower blepharoplasty with fat transfer, and autologous fat transfer with stem cells. I am thrilled with the youthful and natural results of my surgery! My face and neck are rejuvenated, and I continue to see additional improvements each day! I look years younger, and in some ways, I look better than I ever have—all thanks to Dr. Ridenour! I would choose him again, and I will recommend him to my dearest loved ones. Dr. Ridenour has assembled an extremely competent, attentive, and responsive team. From the initial consultation to my post-op appointments, he and his excellent staff (Eva, the two Beccas, Sarah, Kelle, Racy, and nurse anesthetist Richard) have impressed and put me at ease.

Always Thrilled with my Results!

I recently had an appointment with Dr. Ridenour. Once again, he skillfully and artistically transformed my fatigued face into a well-rested and uplifted visage. I am 75 years old and have been a patient of the Ridenour Plastic Surgery Specialists for about 15 years. The staff is highly professional, courteous, and caring. I highly recommend the Ridenour Plastic Surgery Specialists for all your beauty and skin care needs. Each of my visits seem to turn back the clock. We’ve all heard of that ole’ Dr. Feel Good. Well for me, I refer to Dr. Ridenour as my Dr. Look Good!!! Give him a chance, you will not be disappointed.

Knows exactly what I need with each procedure

I have been going to Dr. Ridenour for several years. My first appointment was a minimal rhinoplasty and then onto fillers and Botox. I was so pleased with my nose after the surgery, and received many compliments. Every appointment his beautiful staff is always welcoming, and with an easy smile. Dr. Ridenour is friendly and has very patient in listening to my concerns. He gives me excellent advice, and knows exactly what I need with each procedure. When I leave, I feel beautiful, and know that I have been in great hands. Thank you Dr. Ridenour and staff

All Smiles! My procedure was well worth the time and financial commitment

I scheduled my neck, face, eyelid and brow lift surgery with Dr Ridenour, without hesitation, after my son received a beautiful rhinoplasty from him back in 2015. You can expect tender loving care from the doctor and his nurses; beginning with your first consultation, and lasting throughout your complete healing process.This was MY experience:I didn’t feel completely comfortable being seen in public for the first month. After that though, I was “good to go”! Yes, there was facial swelling. Yes, there were many stitches. But, believe it or not, I experienced no pain from the surgery or the healing process! I felt “pressure” in my face due to swelling, and my scalp felt “tingly” (similar to what you feel when removing a tight ponytail). Both were “sensations” that I felt, but neither were “painful”.You will need a helper for the first week to assist with your after-care, and to drive you to frequent follow-up appointments with the nurses. My advice would be to take a 2 week “staycation”, to relax and tend to yourself. You can expect “complete recovery” to take 4-6 months, so plan your procedure strategically.Since my surgery (in 2019), I’m SO much happier with the contour of my neck, and I no longer have a need for under eye concealer make-up! Also, a week doesn’t go by without me receiving a compliment on the texture of my skin!My procedure was well worth the time and financial commitment. Don’t be afraid. Just do it!!Lastly, I also highly recommend the Alastin and Epionce skincare products available through Dr Ridenour’s office. They’re a game changer!I am so happy with my results! The office staff are very friendly. Look at the results, need I say more. I would do it again. I have no regrets. The process was great and the staff were by my side to help me through it all. Thank your Ridenour Plastic Surgery.

The surgery was an easy process and love the results

Had an upper eyelid lift (blepharoplasty) a little over a month ago. I am very happy with how it turned out. The surgery was an easy process and love the results! Highly recommend Dr. Ridenour if you’re thinking about an eyelid lift.

I would highly recommend anybody looking for natural and beautiful results to choose Dr. Ridenour. His practice is something to brag about!

Happy with my profile now - feel more confident and attractive

I am 68 years old and have wanted to have my Mediterranean profile changed since I was a teenager. My initial experience with Dr. Ridenour’s staff, was wonderful. The staff are all very friendly, kind and positive. I knew after meeting Dr. And his staff, that I would be very comfortable with going through with my rhinoplasty procedure. I am very happy with my profile now, I don’t feel like my nose is the large centerpiece of my face, and feel so much more confident and attractive . Thank you Dr.Ridenour and staff. Theresa B.P.

Went above and beyond to answer my questions

I went to RPS for Miradry treatment on my underarms. The staff were all very pleasant and helpful. They went above and beyond to answer my questions and make me feel comfortable every step of the way. The procedure itself was fast and painless. Highly recommended!
