More shocking than ever.
Botched returns on E! tonight (Jan. 25) and our favorite plastic surgeons Drs. Terry Dubrow and Paul Nassif promise cases like you've never seen before.
"This season is unique because it's not just about fixing plastic surgery from people who had plastic surgery for cosmetic reasons, but it's fixing plastic surgery for people who had it for trauma and cancer and congenital deformity," Terry told E! News exclusively.
Paul calls this season "transformational, freaky, weird and just kind of shocking," adding, "What's unusual about this season is we're seeing things we've never seen before."
Terry continued, "For example, this one woman goes in to have this little spot removed by a dermatologist and unbeknownst the dermatologist, just a little area under the nose, he thinks he finds it's a little bit of a skin cancer. So he keeps moving more and more and more and by the end of the few hours she had nothing underneath her nose. Her entire upper lip gone. I mean out of there. Could you imagine, and they held the mirror up to her and there's nothing?"
Terry teased of another shocking case, "This girl born with this little mass on the back of her heel. They did a little biopsy, they realized it was a lymphoblastoma so they had to remove the entire heel. So they took tissue from the back and microsurgically sewed it into the heel. Problem is it grew like back tissue. So she's got what she called her ball sack on her heel, and she can't wear tennis shoes, she can't run, she's embarrassed, can't go to beach, and she's 19."
He continued, "So she comes in, we gotta try to make it a heel but you know if you were move all that tissue you're gonna kill it and you're gonna need another back flap done. Very difficult case."
Paul cited one particularly tragic case of a rock musician who suffered, "horrible complications with his lower eyelids. His lower eyelids are pulled all the way down so he looks deformed. It ruined his whole music practice, being out in public performing, writing, always wearing sunglasses and it changed his whole life that it pretty much made him a hermit."
Finally, Terry detailed trying to correct one woman's "ugly" knee injury. "In order to fix it and make it look reasonable, we had to put a tourniquet on her which gives you two hours to remove the hardware and the fix the cosmetic thing. And if you don't do in two hours the whole leg is gonna die, and so it's like a ticking time clock. It's a really interesting season, a lot of heart and a lot of natural humor," he shared.
Terry concluded, "I just think people are gonna be surprised how much life and heart is left in this show. And how this show really puts a microscope on the human condition of desperation and hopelessness and the authentic high stakes things that are going on in the show. In many ways, this show is these people's last chance, more than ever before, and if they didn't have they don't have positive outcomes, that's it. They're going to have to live looking and feeling that way for the rest of their life."

Mass de Mejilla
A giant facial tumor devastated Yamile's life, leaving her with a giant sack of excess skin hanging from her left cheek.
Paul removed the tumor before removing the unhealthy excess skin and performing a mini face lift. Lastly, he did a canthoplasty to lift her drooping left eyelid.
Distressed Chest
Born with a rare heart disease, Joshua underwent four surgeries as a child that left him with a large, unsightly scar down his chest and stomach.
Terry made an incision to remove the keloid scar tissue before adding sutures. After surgery, Joshua received 5-Fluorouracil injections to minimize any scarring from the operation.
Putty Pecker
After being diagnosed with rhinophyma, a disfiguring nasal deformity of the skin tissue, Andy's nose nearly doubled in size over the course of two years. Paul shaved away the excess sebaceous tissue growth before using a J-plasma tool to smooth out the skin tissue and correcting his deviated septum.
Donut Rack
in 2021, Tanna decided to get her breast implants removed, but the botched surgery left her with permanent holes in one breast and an off-center nipple on the other.
Terry released the scar tissue on her right breast and improved the shape by rearranging the breast tissue. As for her missing nipple, they used tattooing technology to give her back her missing areola.
Lip Loss
An chemical accident as a baby severely injured Jannie’s mouth, leaving her with disfigured lips and making it nearly impossible for her to eat and drink. Paul removed as much scar tissue as possible and relocated her lip mucosa to give them a fuller appearance.
Ciabatta Ta-Tas
Jennifer sought out a breast lift and implants, but a botched surgery left her with misshaped boobs that went up into her armpits. Terry removed her misplaced implants and created new implant pockets before inserting the new pair and tightening her skin.
Scar-y Arms
After losing 120 pounds with the help of a weight-loss surgery, Morgyn sought skin removal surgery to fix the sagging skin under her arms. The botched procedure left her with horrible red scars and discolored flesh.
Terry removed as much of the scar tissue as possible before closing up the wound, leaving her with more natural looking skin.
Cleft Nose
Jalissa was born with a cleft palate, which she underwent numerous surgeries for as a child to correct. During her final surgery something went terribly wrong and she was left with a large crease in her nose.
Paul added inner tip support before pulling down her nostril skin to make her nose more symmetrical, then added cartilage to the crease to fill it in.
Pepperoni Skin
Fitness influencer Beatriz went for B12 injections that she was told would desolve her fat. The shots left her with hundreds of scars and $1 million dollars in medical bills. Terry recommended laser treatments to improve the color of Beatriz's scar marks over invasive surgery.
Ear Hopes
Rasheera, who has two very rare diseases, was born without a right jaw bone and right ear. Paul harvested skin from her other ear and stomach to replace the old tissue before revising the shape and improving the look of her right ear. He also implanted a new hearing device on her left side.
As for her jaw, he used fat from her stomach and injected that into her face to give Rasheera better facial symmetry.
Tucked Up Tummy
After having kids, a botched tummy tuck left Maranda with a life-threatening infection that resulted in a horrible scar across her stomach. Terry performed liposuction and muscle-tightening before removing the scarred tissue and giving her her belly button back.
Lip Filler Fiasco
After getting lip fillers in her 20s, Monica contracted a nasty infection and had to have two thirds of her lips removed. Not even 20 more surgeries could restore Monica's smile.
Paul placed a buccal mucosal graft under her top lip to give her more projection, used a scapular skin graft to give her lips more fullness then treated her scarring around the chin.
Body Bummer
Chase, a trans male, was left with sagging skin, a concave chest and salami nipples after his previous doctor botched his top surgery.

Linda was born with Omphalocele, a birth defect of the abdominal wall where the infant's intestines, liver or other organs stick outside of the belly through the belly button. The life-saving surgery she received left her with a brutal scar on her stomach.
Terry removed abdominal irregularities and scarring before tightening the underlying abdominal wall and giving Linda the belly button she never had.
Photobomb Beak
A botched nose job left Jasmine with a bulbous tip and a nasty scarp. Paul removed the protruding cartilage in her tip before opening her nostrils with a new bone graft and injecting cartilage in the sides to give her nose a more standard shape.
Shark Bite Hips
As an exotic dancer, Shekea got 15 to 20 butt injections to boost her career. Years later, she had a procedure to remove the unknown matter in her rear but developed a severe infection that left her hips and butt deformed. Terry created buttock pockets and moved fat tissue into her rear before removing the scarred skin tissue.
Eye of the Tiger
A near-fatal car accident landed Haylie in the hospital for 86 days and left her with an eye she's unable to close. Despite having a whopping 42 procuders to try to fix the injury, she remained at risk of losing her sight because the cornea is drying out. Paul reconstructed her upper and lower eyelid sockets using bone grafts and used skin grafts to give her eye tissue that would allow her to close her eye.
Side Show Breasts
After undergoing weight loss surgery in her 30s, Chrissy got a breast augmentation to fix her saggy boobs. The botched procedure left her with extremely lop-sided breasts and a misplaced nipple. Terry removed her misplaced implants and evened out her mishaped boobs.
Mohs Nose

Nippy-ola
After going under the knife for implants and a breast lift, Adraly was left with intense scarring around her nipples that looked like giant slices of Balogna. Terry replaced her old implants with new ones and removed as much of the scarred skin tissue as possible before giving her another lift.
Cartilage Collapse
After being born with birth defects, Nate sought out a rhinoplasty from Paul to fix his flat nose. However, after several years, the tip eventually collapsed again. For his second time around with the Botched docs, Paul replaced the previous bone graft with new a new one to build out Nate's bridge and expanded his nostrils to improve his breathing, leaving him with a more symmetrical nose.
Front Butt
Having struggled with her weight all her life, Terina underwent a gastric sleeve procedure and lost over 100 pounds. However, she was left with tons of hanging skin. A Tijuana mommy makeover landed her in the ER with dying flesh and an emergency surgery barely saved her life. Terry removed her scarring and tightened her skin to give her the flat stomach she always wanted.
Ear-itated

Breast Wishes
A botched breast augmentation left Rebecca with one high boob and one low boob. Terry removed her misplaced implants and inserted new ones before lifting the sagging breast.
Cocaine Collapse

After removing her misplaced implants, Terry restitched her muscles then added new, smaller implants before lifting the dropping skin and repositioning her nipples.
A botched facelift left Jo Anna with scars and pigment discoloration along her jowls and neck. Paul cut out as much of the scarred skin as possible before using medical tattoos to cover as much of the discolored skin at possible.
