S03.E10: Went to Mexico and Got Terrible Rhinorrhea

[OnceSane]

Dr. Nassif helps a mother of three out of a snotty situation, while Dr. Dubrow transforms a woman whose ex-boyfriend pressured her to get extremely large implants.  Also: A man from Kentucky wants pop star Michael Jackson's infamous nose.

I'm sensing a theme here. Don't go to Mexico for plastic surgery.

I totally misread "rhinorrhea" as something else when I first saw the title. Yuck.

I missed the part in which she explained why she was forced to get those beachball funbags installed, but I winced at DuBrow describing the process of deflating them as "rupturing". No, you drained them, not making them burst. Also, I am beyond tired of DuBrow putting down Nassif. On a positive note, the freak of the week wasn't too bad this time and seemed to actually listen to their advice.

Another nice nasal reconstruction this week.

Otherwise, I never have and never will understand why these women demand gigantic implants in the first place, so have no interest in or sympathy for them This particular patient kept saying she made a mistake with the basketballs she had, but then insisted on keeping them as slightly deflated basketballs. Yeesh.

In that lady's defense, she was basically badgered into getting them to please a guy that she was with for some time (which of course didn't work out), and what she wanted was to go back to her natural size (DD), before implants (she's not stick thin, so that's not at all uncommon). I was surprised it took significant implants to get her back to that, but since she really just wanted to look like herself again, I thought that was pretty reasonable. Sure, she was a fool to have gotten them in the first place, but she had good insight into the whole thing and seemed to me to no longer have any sort of unrealistic expectations.  I don't see any reason why she should want smaller breasts than she was born with (although other women that size might want a reduction); and, despite all of Dr. Dubrow's handwringing about whether she'd be happy, she had said she was ok with him exercising his judgment, but was upfront when asked about her preference being to get back to about what she was before all the tinkering.

I didn't know they were huge before she had the funbags installed. I take back what I thought when she asked for them to  be large after the fix.

I thought the "after" boob size seemed appropriate for her frame. She looked good.

This show's formula is getting tired. Boobs and a nose each week. 

[Kiss my mutt]

I'm sick of watching people who are botched by bad decisions or because they have mental issues. It will be a nice break to see Botched by Nature instead. 

Getting bigger boobs will save a floundering relationship about as much as having a baby.

Oh and in order for MJ guy to be exactly like Michael he'd have to have a predilection for little boys. Gag

I want to tell Ilana that getting breast implants doesn't get her out of wearing a bra. And at only one month post-surgery, she should be wearing a bra.

Here's what I don't get: *I* have G-sized breasts. My mother's are I-sized (as in G, H, I), and she doesn't look like Ilana did pre-surgery. Neither my mom nor I look like we have giant clown tits. Large breasts, yes.

I get the reason clowny fake tits look clowny is because of the spherical shape of the implants, but I know for a fact that there are "teardrop"-shaped implants that mimic the natural shape of the breast. Why does Dr. Dubrow never use those when fixing ridiculous, huge tits? Ilana's boobs looked fake. Fake boobs look fake.

I guess nose job woman hid from her family for two months until they went rollerblading, when she "revealed" her nose! This show is so dumb.

No words for the "Michael Jackson impersonator". Is there a big market for that in Kentucky?

Thanks for reminding me about that! I had to laugh about that. This show just has to shoe-horn a reveal, doesn't it? ha ha

I think that's what it's going to be, though -- isn't Terry a boobs specialist and Paul a nose specialist?

Yep.

[grisgris]

Snot-nose woman and her husband needed to get a room.  Now that her nose is fixed, I predict that their family will double in size in record time.

Yeah. I wish they'd branch out into some other problems other than boobs and noses, but I think rhinoplasty and breast augmentation are the two most common plastic surgery procedures, in addition to being the specialties of Drs. Nassif and Dubrow.

If the producers would nix the "freak of the week" and insert a "born this way" case that would be more balanced and interesting and possibly eliminate the need for a spin-off show. I'm sure egos, ratings and advertising dollars beckon to the contrary, though.

My DVR always seems to cut off the last minute even when I program one full hour.  Did the snotosaurus finally get relief from the drip?

[bilgistic]

She said she did.

The only other surgery there seems to be is the occasional botched tummy tuck.  Most women know now to to do the brazilian butt lift (aka fat transfer) instead of a butt implant, so there aren't likely to be any butt deformities to fix.
