I've lost about 19 pounds, and I do two things. One: calorie counting - calorie in and calorie out, that's No. 1. Two: working out six days a week.
Performing unconsented surgeries is considered battery because the patient can't voice their opinion - they're unconscious.
You know when people overdo it... and their breasts are way too large or they overdo their face, I mean, that's what gives plastic surgery a bad name.
On the Housewives I was real chunky. In person I don't look that fat.
Obviously everyone's weight fluctuates. But I'm focusing on working out and watching what I'm eating.
The younger folks, the Gen Z-ers and millennials, might abuse their skin a little bit, and because they're so young they aren't intentionally taking care of their skin to protect it in the long run.
First of all, you want to make sure you find a doctor that is a board-certified specialist in whatever that field is - whatever it is - whether it's plastic surgery, facial plastic surgery, ocular plastic surgery, brain surgery, whatever it is. And two, if they do a procedure, you want to make sure they do a lot of it.
I still ponder what gets in people's minds and souls, why they do the things they do.
I think with social media and men wanting to look good - since honestly a lot of the older men are going out with younger women - they do want to use Botox.
I get a call from my sister. They go, 'We met the funniest, funniest doctor in Newport Beach.' And they introduced me to Dr. Terry Dubrow.
I chose a specialty in plastic and reconstructive surgery because it's very rewarding to watch someone with broken bones or bad scars return to normal.
In all of life, I've never heard of a C-section where a scalpel goes too deep and actually slices into the baby's forehead. Or even touches the baby's forehead.
I'm not the typical doctor that gives patients what they want. I don't do that. I try to give them what I want as long as they're okay with that. I know what's going to match their face.
Kim Kardashian buttocks are very popular. However, that's dangerous as it can be fatal if done badly.
Appearing on TV as a plastic surgeon showcases your talents and that increases demand. We're very busy. The negative thing is that sometimes patients think you can work magic, which, of course, you cannot.
Everyone is filtering their selfies to make them look perfect. We're seeing it more and more in my clinic - patients want to look like a photo they've tweaked. They show me the picture and say: 'This is the new me.' But many times it's not realistic.
To make any endeavor successful, you have to put that time and energy into something and work long hard days. Whether it's on the weekends or at night. You have to be constantly looking to improve things.
Most peoples work ethnic tends to be OK, but not fantastic.
I've had my nose done a bunch of times.
The excess skin, especially in my neck, was driving me crazy.
I was a hard person to deal with as a patient.
I am not close minded at all to having more children.
It would be very interesting to travel across the world.
Obviously it's always hard when you tell a patient you can't help them, because maybe it's a physical constraint with the surgery, but in regards to telling a patient that they're not realistic and they're not appropriate psychological candidates, we're pretty used to it.
I have three boys right now. Obviously, I would love a girl. But we're going to see what happens naturally.
You have to take care of your skin.
The hardest procedures are the complex nasal reconstructions. With these you have to be so careful, because the skin of the nose can be very destroyed and turns black and can fall off. It's extremely difficult and scary.
Without naming names, I definitely think that celebrities nowadays are really having better surgery. It's looking a lot more natural than ever which is really great.
When on the show it is mostly reconstructions that I work on, but locally and on a day-to-day basis it is rhinoplasties. I also get a lot of people coming to me about upper eyelid lifts, too.
I see the skin from the inside out when I'm operating on it - I can see the dehydration and the abuse.
As a plastic surgeon, I know the skin better than anybody because I see it in all the different layers.
Don't smoke - nicotine and tobacco can really hurt your skin.
There's no danger to suddenly stopping fillers or Botox.
Skincare is what's going to help you look fresh, plumped, and toned.
Everybody out there should watch 'Botched.'
If someone overdoes fillers or Botox, and many months have passed, they'll start looking more natural, like Dr. Dubrow.
You can actually take a weekend course in cosmetic surgery.
I look good. I lost a lot of weight.
Well, the Brazilian butt lifts are dangerous.
When a patient comes in for a face lift, I can get in there and lift up the deep tissue. But, one thing I cannot fix with surgery or these hands is the skin.
The celebrities that really protect their skin and look great, whether they're wearing makeup or not, are Reese Witherspoon, Jessica Alba and Jessica Chastain.
Every day, before you start, especially if you are going to wear sunscreen, you have to exfoliate.
When it comes to Sun Protection Factor, SPF, the higher, the better. Usually, between 30 and 50 is best.
Having nasal surgery while you're an active boxer is like breast surgery, a lift right before you have kids. What's the point?
