In this episode of Botched, titled "Welcome to Jurassic Schnoz," plastic surgeons Dr. Terry Dubrow and Dr. Paul Nassif are presented with some of their most challenging patients yet. The episode starts off with the two doctors hearing from a man who had a bad rhinoplasty, or nose job, and as a result, his nose now looks like a dinosaur snout. The patient, named Barry, is very self-conscious about his appearance and seeks the help of the doctors to fix the botched procedure. Dr. Dubrow finds that the previous surgeon had removed too much cartilage from Barry's nose, causing it to collapse and become misshapen. He and Dr. Nassif perform a complex revision surgery to rebuild the nose, resulting in a much more natural and proportionate appearance.
Next, the episode features a woman named Karolina who suffered a traumatic injury to her cheek when she was hit by a car. Her previous surgeon attempted to repair the damage, but left her with an unsightly scar and asymmetrical face. Dr. Nassif explains that the previous surgeon had not taken into account how Karolina's bone structure affects the shape of her face, and that he and Dr. Dubrow must perform a complete reconstruction of the injured area. The two surgeons successfully restore Karolina's natural beauty and confidence to her face.
The third patient in the episode is Karen, who had a botched breast augmentation over a decade ago. Her previous surgeon had used implants that were too big for her body, causing her breasts to droop and become misaligned. Karen was left with painful, heavy breasts that made her feel uncomfortable in her own skin. Dr. Dubrow and Dr. Nassif work together to replace Karen's existing implants with smaller, more proportional ones. They also perform a breast lift to correct the drooping and give her a more natural look. The result is a much more comfortable and confident Karen, who can finally feel comfortable in her own skin.
Lastly, the episode features a woman named Monica who had multiple procedures done to enhance her buttocks and thighs. However, her previous surgeon used too much fat during the procedure, causing her buttocks to become too large and misshapen. Monica is unhappy with her appearance and seeks the help of the doctors to restore her confidence. Dr. Nassif and Dr. Dubrow perform a Brazilian Butt Lift revision surgery to remove excess fat and sculpt the area to a more shapely and natural-looking shape. Monica is thrilled with the results and feels much more confident in her body.
Throughout the episode, the two doctors provide expert commentary on the procedures they perform, as well as the psychological effects that botched plastic surgeries can have on patients. They stress the importance of seeking out qualified and experienced surgeons, and the importance of having realistic expectations when undergoing any sort of cosmetic procedure.
Overall, "Welcome to Jurassic Schnoz" is a compelling episode of Botched that showcases the impactful work of Dr. Dubrow and Dr. Nassif. The challenges presented by each patient are met with the expertise and compassion of the surgeons, leading to incredible transformations both physically and emotionally. The episode is a must-watch for any fans of the show or anyone interested in learning more about the world of plastic surgery and its potential to transform lives.
