Dr. Ricardo Izquierdo
Plastic Surgeon

Dr. Izquierdo performed a primary rhinoplasty on me. During our consultations he heard exactly what I desired for my final outcome, I expressed how I wanted only the tip of my nose defined. Nothing more, nothing less. He repeated back to me everything that I requested & promised a very subtle result. He promised that I would be able to retain the "ethnicity" of my nose.

After the surgery I was unrecognizable. He removed the cast & handed me a mirror. I was in the middle of a sentence when he abruptly walked out of the room. I never heard from him again.

The results were not what we had discussed. He disregarded our consultation & decided to do "his own thing" in the operating room. He broke my nose & I was unable to breathe. I would often wake up choking because I began to snore from my broken nose. I ended up with a saddle nose deformity. He narrowed my nostrils & I have visible stitch marks on both sides.

He also shortened my nose to roughly half of its size. To say I am disappointed would be an understatement.
It has been a traumatizing 2 years for me. I have since had a revision rhinoplasty with a professional & ethical plastic surgeon. He used an implant & also my own bone to reconstruct the bridge of my nose. He also used grafts to lengthen my nostrils. I am now able to breathe & slowly recovering.

My hope is that Dr. Izquierdo reads this comment & ceases to perform rhinoplasty. Doc-you made a promise that you couldn't deliver. You stole my beauty & I have forgiven you. Please stop butchering. God forgive you.
