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