Transcript of Dr. Rivkin Featured on Los Angeles 9 On The Town
It has become fairly common these days to hear people talking about facelifts and plastic surgery, but we found one doctor that can deliver a whole new you without putting you under the knife!
Some Southern Californians are paying a pretty penny for a prettier nose. Dr. Alexander Rivkin of the West Side Medical Spa hopes to change all that with his splendid non surgical nose job.
“Guys have come in and said, my nose it is kind of bent over, it has got a little twist, a little bump, all I want you to do is just spackle it and just make it straight and I say, ok, let us spackle it.”
Using filler products like Restylane and Radiesse Dr. Rivkin is able to fill in problem spots without the expense, pain or recovery time of going under the knife.
“When I make it (the nose) straight, even though I am adding stuff to it, suddenly the nose becomes smaller in appearance. That is because, when your eye cannot focus on something that is very asymmetric or something that is off, it (the nose) blends into the rest of the face and becomes small.”
With a little bit of science and the hands of an artist Dr. Rivkin helps patients sidestep a world of problems.
“You don’t have the swelling, you don’t have the bruising, you are not out several days from work, you can go right back to work or to class.”
Not only is it quick and painless it is easy on your wallet. A nose job the old fashioned way will run you about $8000 to $10000 while Dr. Rivkin’s procedure is under a grand.
“The other thing that is interesting about this is that it is temporary. You change, your face changes and as your face changes you can adjust the procedure to the way you are changing and to the way your face is changing.”
Jennifer Tahbaz had a short-term injection six months ago and loved the results so much, she is back.
“The night that I got it, I actually went to a party and one of my sister’s friend’s gathering and everybody noticed and they loved it, they noticed it right away, they were like wow! Jennifer is so looking so different. You know I did not want to actually reconstruct my whole nose, I did not want them to have to do any sort of surgery whatsoever so I felt like that injections would be a good idea that way I get the same results as a nose job, less painful and less money.”
Radiesse functions like a mesh that over a couple of weeks fuses with your own tissue. Once her nose has been numbed she is ready for the Radiesse, a few quick injections some artistic adjustments from Dr. Rivkin and voila!
“So now I had this procedure done and I am actually planning on going home and getting dressed so I can go out. “
Dr. Alexander Rivkin of the Westside Medical Spa -- proving you don’t have to pay through the nose for a more perfect one.
