Meet the Plastic Surgeons Gone Nuts

Filed under: Weird and Wonderful — Tags: Abroad, bad, bad boob job, botched, cosmetic surgeon, cosmetic surgery, Cosmetic Surgery Abroad, dangerous, flying doctor, gone wrong, nuts, plastic surgeon, plastic surgeons, plastic surgery, Scars — admin @ 2:10 am

They go to med school, junior doctor and then years and years of surgical training (okay so a few on the list skipped this bit) and finally they reach the pinnacle of their career, they become a fully fledged cosmetic or plastic surgeon.  And then they lose the plot start wearing their underpants on their head and stick two pencils up their nose while thinking of creative things to do with the fat they sucked out of their last patient. We could have added so many more..but we don’t want to put you off too much.

Franz Gsell

He was one of Germany’s most celebrated plastic surgeons and worth a reported $10 million. After his expensive first marriage failed he decided to find himself a plain, chubby girl from a rural Bavarian town who he could turn into his own Barbie trophy wife (with a big dollop Eurotrash styling thrown in). When he “created” Tatjana he liked to think he was creating “the perfect woman”. After Franz had performed more than 20 operation to create his dream wife it all started to go wrong for him. First she left him for another wealthy old dodger called Helmut Becker known as the “Car King of Düsseldorf” and they set up a love nest in Marbella, Spain. The next part is a little grey but involved Franz being robbed and attacked with an axe by a gang. He was so badly beaten he died two weeks later in hospital. Ironically this propelled Tatjana in the spot light and she immediately found celebrity fame in Germany’s gutter press and her plastic looks can be seen adorning many magazines. The final twist in the tale is Tatjana’s arrest in connection with her husband’s death and her conviction for her part in the plot (they managed to pin insurance fraud on her). And with Franz millions in the bank I don’t think we will be seeing a wrinkle appear on her pulled back face anytime soon. Oh and the latest is she hooked up with Prince Ferfried von Hohenzollern but left him after he became bankrupt.

Where is he now? Dead

David Herbert “the flying doctor”

A plastic surgeon in the UK he got his name “the flying doctor” because of the speed at which he used to perform his cosmetic surgery procedures. It is said he would do a facelift in just forty minutes instead of the normal two to four hours.  He had 70 serious complaints pending against him from former patients who he left close to death with infections and gaping holes in their flesh. Many of his colleagues had described him as “verging on the psychopathic” and “psychotic”. The list of complaints against him is long and gruesome but before he could face disciplinary action he withdrew from medical practice.

Where is he now? Retired

Daniel Serrano

Priscilla Presley and number of Hollywood high society are just a few of the many thousands of former patients disfigured by Daniel who claimed to have found a new anti ageing solution (the solution turned out to be an industrial type of low quality silicone that is used in automotive industry) Argentinean born Daniel Serrano was unlicensed to provide any kind of treatment and had little medical training was dubbed “Dr. Daniel”  and “Dr. Jiffy Lube” charged thousands of dollars for his treatment. The injections caused lumps in his victims  lip that made it hard for them to eat and drink as well as speak. He is currently serving time in a Federal Prison.

Where is he now? Out of prison trying to avoid deportation

Jan Adams

Adams is a high profile plastic surgeon who had it all.  A list of celebrity clients as well as being a TV regular with his own shows he hit the dizzy height when he appeared on Oprah. But it all started to go horribly wrong for Jan. He was the plastic surgeon who performed surgery on Donda West (the mother of rapper Kanye West) when she died after he did her lipo. He stormed off Larry King Live ripping off taking off his microphone and ear piece saying he wasn’t going to defend himself. He returned to Larry King last year claiming his business been destroyed by the publicity surrounding the case (hey Jan that’s what happened when a celebrity dies under your care) Oh and he seems to have a serious drink problem after being arrested three times for DUI and for driving without a license. In January 2009 he was sentenced to one year in jail in California.

Where is he now? Prison

Kaweewat Hengsawat

Kaweewat was the owner of Bio Clinic in Pattaya, Thailand and had a unique way of dealing with patients unhappy with their nips and tucks. He has them shot in the head! After former patient Mrs Apassanan began a lawsuit and PR campaign against him accusing him of disfiguring her after he injected liquid silicone solution into her face (I wonder if he buys it from the same mechanic as Dr. Jiffy Lube above). It is said he paid to have her killed. And for good measure he had the witness in the case killed as well…or so he is accused. It is also rumored he also botched an operation to enlarge the penis of a member of government.

Where is he now? Unknown

Alan Bittner

He gives a new meaning to the phrase ”Living off the fat of the land”. In Alan’s case the fat was from over seven thousand liposuction patients he treated at his Rodeo Drive clinic and he converted the fat of his patients into a Biofuel to power his fleet of vehicles including his Ford Explorer and his girlfriends’ Lincoln Navigator. He has patients forming a queue to take him to court after it also emerged he let his unlicensed girlfriend and an assistant perform the liposuction surgery on his patients as well and she took out too much fat (maybe they were planning a long road trip and need the extra fuel) He moved to South America after the lawsuit started to stack up.

Where is he now? Bogota, Colombia

Michel Maure

He is known as “Doctor Death” and went on the run from his dirty and run down clinic  in Marseille France following botched cosmetic surgery operations that resulted in the mutilation and death or near death of at least 90 women. He failed to administer enough anesthetic which results in him putting his patients through severe agony. How fitting that Docteur Maure is pronounced like Docteur mort which when translated from French to English means Doctor death.

Where is he now? Sentenced to three years prison

10 Surgeries Gone Bad

Filed under: Weird and Wonderful — Tags: bad, bad boob job, cosmetic surgery, gone wrong, plastic surgery — admin @ 9:37 pm

Tara Reid

From the goody two-shoes character she played in her breakout role in American Pie to an infamous unawares party girl on the reality show Taradise, a lot happened to Tara Reid, most of which we can’t explain. The rest can be summed up in two one word… BOTCHED. Extreme zoom ins show a nipple that looks like it had been chewed on and spit back out onto her chest and a belly resembling that of a walrus face.

tarareid

Sharon Osborne

Sharon Osborne may be one of the only individuals on the list that has sworn off plastic surgery now that she has spent over $235,000 on procedures, even though much of the work was done after gastric bypass surgery left her saggy and flabby. I guess I can’t say which look would be worse.

Charo

It’s Charo’s signature phrase “Cuchi Cuchi” as much as her signature face that have made her an iconic celebrity actress and musician, but what ever happened to aging gracefully without slicing into your body. Charo hasn’t gotten the message.

Lil’ Kim

Lil’ Kim used to be tiny black rapper. Now I’m pretty sure she’s a bloated Latina after some face work and a skin lightening procedure.

Conseulo Sanchez

The worst cases of plastic surgery gone wrong are when the individual needed the procedure for correcting an honest medical problem. Conseulo sought the help of a plastic surgeon for a nose lift to help her breathe. What she got was a doctor operating without a license and a nose deformed and infected so badly another doctor later had to remove the bone.

Donatella Versace

I understand that Versace garments can be a little extravagant, a little glitzy, a little avant-guard, but Donatella Versace, the vice president of the high fashion Versace brand, has taken the meaning of having your accessories (in this case her face) match your ensemble way too far. She’s only 52 years old and her skin is practically orange and looking like it’s beginning to crack. Does her mouth look upside down to anyone else?

Jackie Stallone

Not that she really ever had her good looks going for her, which unfortunately got passed on to her son Sylvester, so some plastic surgery clean up might have seemed like a good idea for Jackie Stallone. After a botched underarm liposuction job and some surgeon’s take on a facelift, the woman who claims she can talk to dogs looks more like the bulldogs she communicates with.

Pete Burns

Not that you would recognize him without the multiple lip injections, cheek implants, and several nose shavings (Pete Burns is the lead singer of the band Dead or Alive made famous by their 80s single You Spin Me Round), but now he looks like something straight out of the underworld.

Amanda Lepore

Just as much as she is an icon in the transsexual world — she has modeled for MAC cosmetics and been the muse of surrealist photographer David LaChappelle — Amanda Lepore is poster child of how not to do plastic surgery. She’s had work done on almost every part of her body and has had about as many different types of procedures on her face as is physically possible: a -forehead lift, two eye-slant procedures, silicon injections, as well as having her hairline and brow bone reduced and three breast augmentations.

Hang Mioku

Uncovering a thrifty way of getting the same job done is always reason to celebrate, but, like most things, if something sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Hang Mioku, a Korean woman, became so obsessed with plastic surgery that after she ran out of silicone from her plastic surgeon, she took to injecting her face with cooking oil. She is now completely unrecognizable to her family.
