Mariana travels to cities across the United States to meet with individuals who are looking to enhance their appearances at a fraction of the cost of traditional plastic surgery. However, these surgeries are often performed by unqualified individuals using questionable materials in unsanitary conditions.
As Mariana uncovers the murky underworld of black market plastic surgery, she meets with a woman who was hospitalized after a botched procedure and a man who had dangerous fillers injected into his face. She also speaks with a former black market surgeon who claims he has performed thousands of illegal procedures.

The episode sheds light on the dangers of putting appearance before safety and the importance of seeking out qualified professionals for all medical procedures.
