Celebrities You Probably Didn't Know Once Appeared On Botched
Over the last seven years, Dr. Terry Dubrow and Dr. Paul Nassif have dedicated their work and surgical practice to help people fix their cosmetic procedures that didn't go quite to plan. There's a number of famous faces who have walked through their door looking for help and these are the celebrities you probably didn't know once appeared on "Botched." From "Real Housewives" stars to supermodels, it seems as though nothing shocks Dr. Terry Dubrow and Dr. Paul Nassif.
"Botched" opened the surgical consultation door and gave viewers an insight into the world of plastic surgery. Dubrow told Female First, "I think that as opposed to some reality shows, everyone that may be on is as authentic as they could be, everyone knows that this is real. Although there's a light side to the show and there's an entertainment value, at the end of the day, this is no joke."
He continued, "This is as authentic as it gets. We are putting patients under general anesthesia and subjecting them to a surgical procedure that could definitely make them look worth, but we're offering them hope, and it's kind of an inspiration for those people who had no hope in the past."
An innumerable amount of people have put their bodies in the hands of Dr. Durbow and Dr. Nassif, including the elites of Hollywood.

In 2016, she was diagnosed with breast cancer and she told Entertainment Tonight that she was informed that it's more challenging to detect abnormalities when a woman has breast implants. "If I had to play my life over again, I would have never gotten breast implants in the first place," she revealed.

While they're no longer part of the franchise, Heather dipped her toe back into the reality television waters when she appeared on "Botched." Entering the surgery, she joked that the only time she got to spend time with her husband is if she booked an appointment. However, it later became clear she was there for a procedure.
She revealed that she had a growth on her hand that she'd had treated a number of times before. While her husband had tried freezing it, burning it, and scraping it, it still kept coming back. Heather joked that her husband might have even botched the procedure. However, he assured her that he'd take care of it.
