Ep 2. Shark Side Story

In season 7 episode 2 of Botched, titled "Shark Side Story," renowned plastic surgeons Dr. Terry Dubrow and Dr. Paul Nassif are back to help patients in need of correctional procedures. The episode features some of the most shocking and extreme cases yet, as patients come in seeking help for their previous botched surgeries.

The first patient we meet is a woman named Kara, who had breast implants that were so large they were causing her physical pain. She explains to the doctors that she underwent the procedure for her career as a stripper, but now regrets her decision and wants to remove the implants. Dr. Dubrow recommends a reduction procedure to decrease the size of the implants, while Dr. Nassif suggests a full removal.

The second patient is a man named David, who had a nose job that went horribly wrong. He explains that his original surgeon had promised him a certain result, but that he was left with a nose that looked completely different than what he had envisioned. Dr. Nassif evaluates David and determines that his previous surgeon had removed too much cartilage, leading to an unnatural look. Dr. Nassif recommends a revision rhinoplasty to restore balance and proportion to David's face.

Next, a woman named Kelly comes in seeking help for her "botched tummy tuck." She explains that her previous surgeon had left her with a large scar and uneven skin. Dr. Dubrow evaluates Kelly and determines that she had a poor outcome due to a rushed and inexperienced surgeon. He recommends a corrective procedure to remove excess skin and repair the scar, giving Kelly the flat tummy she had originally desired.

The next patient we meet is a woman named Crystal, who had liposuction on her legs that went wrong. Crystal explains to the doctors that she was left with lumps and asymmetrical results from the previous procedure. Dr. Dubrow examines Crystal and determines that her previous surgeon had used an outdated method of liposuction that had caused uneven results. He recommends a revision liposuction using modern techniques to achieve a more symmetrical and natural look.

The final patient of the episode is a man named Marty, who had a chin implant that was placed too high on his face. He explains to the doctors that he feels self-conscious about his appearance and wants to achieve a more masculine look. Dr. Nassif examines Marty and determines that the previous surgeon had used an implant that was too small and improperly placed. He recommends a corrective procedure to remove the current implant and place a larger, more proportionate one in its place.

Throughout the episode, we see the patients undergo their corrective procedures and receive the care and attention they deserve after their previous botched surgeries. Dr. Dubrow and Dr. Nassif exhibit their expertise and compassion as they work with each patient to achieve their desired outcome. With each case, we are reminded of the important role that plastic surgery can play in transforming people's lives and boosting their confidence.
