Random Worst Plastic Surgery Horror Stories From 'Botched' (13 items)

(#3) One Woman's Breasts Were So Mangled She Had To Duct Tape Them Together

Kailan Wagler got a breast augmentation at age 19 and the surgery lasted all of 15 minutes, which is never a good sign. She was left with breasts that were way too-high and oddly-shaped. After that, she was forced to use duct tape to manipulate them into a "normal" shape. Yes, she duct taped her breast tissue to the implant... and then had to rip off the tape at night. So if you've ever whined about taking off a Band-Aid, think about duct tape on one of the most sensitive areas of your body.
(#8) This Man's Lip Filler Addiction Went Too Far And His Lips Leaked

Jordan James Parke started with one lip injection at the age of 21 and instantly became hooked. He continued to get lip injections along with injections in his forehead, cheeks, and chin. More than 50 plastic surgery procedures later, Parke was unable to move his face and his lips began to leak. He went to Botched not to remove any of the filler, but to ensure his lips would stop leaking.
(#1) Rajee Had Tire Sealant And Cement Injected Into Her Face

Forty-eight-year-old Rajee Narinesingh came to Botched with actual cement in her face.

Rajee attended a black market "pumping party," where scurrilous characters offered low-price cosmetic injections of cheap substances as budget alternatives to higher-priced procedures. The so-called doctor used cement and tire sealant as fillers in Rajee's face — which not only started causing her extreme pain, but eventually also started burning and creating hard, rock-like nodes all over the affected areas.

Luckily, after the docs on Botched took her on, some of the nodes were removed, but there's still a risk the infections can come back, since everything is in her blood stream.

The Botched doctors originally said that her face was too dangerous to fix, and spent months deliberating over whether they could try the risky series of procedures that, in the end, have helped Rajee regain some confidence in her appearance.
(#6) A Model Tried To Feminize Her Face, And Ended Up With Nerves Full Of Silicone

Transgender model Shauna Brooks, after having silicone injected just about everywhere to try to soften her features, headed overseas for further cosmetic procedures. This included cheek implants, her cheekbones sawed, and some injections to smooth out her entire appearance.

Then, she ended up on Botched, where the doctors warned her against cheap, unregulated plastic procedures. Her black market injections and implants had taken over her face, and the doctors cautioned Shauna that she could have permanent nerve damage if they operated around the silicone. She was still willing to take the risk.
(#10) Albert Had Uneven Pecs

After beginning to lift weights, Albert Nila realized that one side of his chest was growing muscle and the other wasn't — he was literally missing his left pec muscle, despite his best gym efforts. He was diagnosed with Poland Syndrome and soon after learned that he could pectoral implants.

So, he left the country to have surgery, ended up getting sick and having the implant removed almost immediately after getting back to the US. Albert's dream was to do bodybuilding competitions — an impossible goal considering that only one side of his chest could develop muscle. The Botched doctors were able to step in and help.
(#12) A Music Video Star's Ta-Tas Ended Up By Her Ribcage — And The Doctors Used Leeches On Her

Tawny Kitaen recounted her breast implant problems, including doctors who put in implants they deemed appropriate, but were not at all what she had chosen. Tawny decided that she was done with her implants entirely and wanted them removed. She had become famous in the 1980s as the star of Whitesnake's "Here I Go Again" video. Then, in 1984, she starred in Bachelor Party with Tom Hanks, and co-hosted America's Funniest People with Dave Coulier of Full House fame.

Dr. Dubrow removed Tawny's implants as requested — and then used medicinal leeches to help get the blood flowing to her nipples.
