This is a segment from the Doctors last season, where I treated a patient’s banana rolls via mini liposuction. Thanks to Dr. Ordon and everyone at the Doctors for a great experience!

Hopefully this video trailer for my book In Stitches brings a smile to your face. If you haven’t had a chance to read it, please pick up the book that Publisher’s Weekly called, “Full of fascinating stories and laced with self-deprecating humor in the midst of dark desperation, providing a refreshing insight into medicine.”
It’s available at your local Barnes and Noble and on Amazon through the link below:
Thank you to everyone who has purchased “In Stitches!”

Here is an interview I gave with my local ABC News affiliate in Detroit. We discussed two more ‘inexpensive’ secrets to drop a decade. I’ve had many people ask me how to purchase these and other products I presented on Friday. Feel free to click the links below to purchase them off Amazon!

Nose-biter from jail: ‘I’m sorry’: woodtv.com
I did my plastic surgery residency in Grand Rapids, Michigan. While most people see Grand Rapids as a quiet, conservative Midwest town, there are, surprisingly, some really messed up people there. I saw some real doozies, including the story from In Stitches where two idiot parents left their baby alone with a raccoon. Well, here’s a story from Grand Rapids’ WOOD TV 8. You have to see it to believe it.
So what’s going on with her face? Her nose is being reconstructed with a forehead flap, where the skin of the forehead is used to reconstruct the skin of the nose. It’s left in place like that for a couple weeks, after which the ‘bridge’ connecting the skin from the forehead to the nose is divided. Several months later it will probably be thinned to make it fit her face better. Pretty scary, huh?

Here is a video from a recent segment I did on Fox. If you are considering plastic surgery as a gift, here are some suggestions!

Give the Gift of Beauty : MyFoxDETROIT.com
Are you interested in seeing a three minute undereye lift using Sudden Change Undereye Firming Serum? This past Saturday I was invited onto the local Detroit Fox News morning show hosted by my friend Deena Centofanti to introduce five nonsurgical options for giving the gift of beauty. We demo’d Sudden Change on a volunteer, where it was applied to one undereye and not the other. The results are impressive!
Thank you to producer Annie Fuchs and Deena Centofanti for having me on!

Not much for me to say about this one that seeing this poor woman can’t express. If you are considering plastic surgery, Do Your Homework. Find a plastic surgeon certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery (Mandatory), a member of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (Very nice), and a member of the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (a nice bonus).

Here is Part Two of last week’s USA Today expose on the current state of plastic surgery. It focuses on the recent explosion of bargain-basement cosmetic surgery centers. These centers are like the fast-food chains of plastic surgery. You may get it cheap, but you get what you pay for.
You can read the article here.

The numbers of teens undergoing plastic surgery continues to grow. I was recently interviewed on my local NBC News affiliate about this trend.
Thank you to WDIV and Dr. Frank McGeorge for putting together this great piece.

Enjoy this funny video a friend of mine made in honor of In Stitches! The Best Cheesy Pickup Lines Ever! I wish I had tried some of these back when I was single and couldn’t get a date. Maybe I would have gotten somewhere.
In Stitches Update: Thank you to everyone who made it out to my four signings! Overall it was a great experience, with more enthusiasm for the book than I ever could have hoped. We sold out of the book in two out of the four signings! Please be sure to pick up your copy of the book Dr. Robert Rey (Dr. 90210) calls “witty” and “well-written!” You can buy In Stitches on Amazon.com or BarnesandNoble.com.

Cindy Jackson, the Guiness Book of World Records holder of the most plastic surgeries (52!) was recently interviewed by the Today Show. You can see the video HERE. For 52 surgeries, she doesn’t look nearly as plastic as I thought she would!
I’m kinda partial to Jenny Lee, the “Texas Barbie Doll,” myself. She’s a very nice person. I wonder how many surgeries she’s had?

For those of you who missed it, this is from today’s Fox and Friends. I debated my friend and prominent New York plastic surgeon Dr. Jennifer Walden about whether plastic surgery may be a solution to bullying. In general, I don’t think it is. For more background on this story, click here for yesterday’s post on this topic.
Thank you to Fox and Friends and Dr. Jennifer Walden. To read her blog, click here.

Here is the official IN STITCHES video trailer. Before selling my book, I didn’t even know that many books, just like movies, have video trailers… except with a MUCH lower budget. Even though there is no CGI, actors, or 3-D, I’m really proud of this one. I actually put the whole thing together myself, and think it really exhibits the tone of IN STITCHES like nothing else could do.
I hope you enjoy it. If you do, head on over to the IN STITCHES website here and/or please send a link to a friend using the buttons below! Thank you!

So the season finale of E! Entertainment’s Bridalplasty drew over 1 million viewers. Not too shabby! I must admit that I saw the first episode and then never returned. It wasn’t my thing. One of the only shows I regularly watch nowadays is Modern Family. I miss Dr. Robert Rey and Dr. 90210! They should bring that one back!
Here is a video of an interview I did for Fox and Friends discussing Bridalplasty.

Here is a video that aired yesterday on Fox News America Live with Megyn Kelly (although Martha MacCallum was filling in for her). I share my insight on the recent FDA announcement of a possible link between breast implants and a rare type of lymphoma.
