Skin Decision: Before and After Season 1 Episode 8 Implant Removal & Excess Skin
- July 15, 2020
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we have seen the rise of virtual consultation services, where patients can communicate with their doctors online and receive personalized recommendations. This is what happened in Skin Decision: Before and After season 1 episode 8, where a patient named Sherry reached out to the show's hosts for help with her excessive skin and implant removal surgery.
At the beginning of the episode, we meet Sherry, a 54-year-old woman who underwent multiple surgeries aimed at enhancing her body's appearance. She had breast implants, tummy tucks, and liposuction, which all left her with a considerable amount of excess skin. Sherry was unhappy with the results and wanted to get rid of the implants and address the loose skin.
The episode starts with a virtual consultation between Sherry and the show's hosts, Nurse Jamie and Dr. Sheila Nazarian. The doctors listened to Sherry's concerns and observed her condition as they discussed her potential treatment options. They explained that removing the implants could cause the skin above and below them to sag, which could impact the overall appearance of her breasts. Additionally, they told her that the removal of implants could lead to the loss of breast tissue, which would cause further sagging. The doctors recommended a breast lift, which would remove excess skin and lift the breasts. They also advised Sherry to undergo a tummy tuck to eliminate the excess skin around her midsection.
After the consultation, the show's hosts coordinated with a plastic surgeon to perform the procedures. They chose Dr. Michael K. Obeng, a well-known plastic surgeon who has appeared on other reality TV shows, to conduct the surgery.
The following day, the surgery took place in Beverly Hills. Dr. Obeng and his team started with the implant removal surgery, which lasted about an hour and a half. They removed Sherry's breast implants and the surrounding scar tissue. Dr. Obeng then proceeded to perform a bilateral nipple and areola reconstruction. Afterward, they performed the tummy tuck surgery, which took about three hours. They removed the excess skin around Sherry's waist, eliminating sagging skin.
The episode then focuses on Sherry's recovery process. We see her at home, lying in bed and resting. Her husband was there to support her, and we see her progress through different stages of healing. Initially, she's in a lot of pain and discomfort from her surgeries, but as time goes on, she begins to feel gradually better and better. After the healing period, Sherry visits the show's hosts for her follow-up appointment to assess the final results.
At the appointment, Nurse Jamie and Dr. Nazarian examine Sherry to determine the effectiveness of the procedures. They are both amazed by the excellent results; Sherry's breasts and midsection become more toned, and the sagging skin has been eradicated. Sherry herself is thrilled with the results, and her self-esteem has been boosted.
In conclusion, Skin Decision: Before and After season 1 episode 8 focuses on a woman named Sherry, who seeks the assistance of Nurse Jamie and Dr. Nazarian to remove her breast implants and excess skin. Through a virtual consultation with the patients, the doctors recommended a breast lift and a tummy tuck. The surgery was conducted by Dr. Obeng, a well-known plastic surgeon, had an immediate effect on Sherry, and she eventually recovered well. At her scheduled follow-up appointment, the show's hosts and the patient were ecstatic about the amazing results. In summary, the episode provides an exceptional educational experience for anyone considering plastic surgery. The episode is a testament to the incredible surgical skills of the show's hosts and the plastic surgeon they chose for the patient's surgery.
