Plastic Surgery Uncensored

Diana was 25 when she came in for a rhinoplasty. All she knew was that she didn't like her nose.

Four years later, she shares what actually changed. In this episode, Dr. Rady Rahban and Diana talk about:

Why most patients can't pinpoint what bothers them about their nose

How the chin and neck affect how the nose looks

Why every rhinoplasty should protect breathing, even when breathing "seems fine"

The sleep, exercise, and headache changes Diana noticed after surgery

What a thorough consultation and aftercare process looks like

Why several subtle procedures can look more natural than one dramatic one

Diana's advice for anyone considering surgery: do your research, take your consultations seriously, and don't let fear of judgment make the decision for you.Individual results vary. Schedule a consultation to discuss your goals.

What happens when you're unhappy with the results of your rhinoplasty? Can a second surgery really fix it?
In this episode of Plastic Surgery Uncensored, board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Rady Rahban takes a deep dive into revision rhinoplasty, explaining why correcting a previous nose surgery is significantly more complex than performing the original procedure.
From scar tissue and compromised anatomy to breathing difficulties and structural reconstruction, Dr. Rahban breaks down what makes revision rhinoplasty so challenging and why choosing the right surgeon is critical.
He also explores why patients must allow adequate healing time before considering another surgery, the role of cartilage grafting, the realities of a prolonged recovery, and why even the most experienced surgeons cannot guarantee a perfect outcome.
For anyone considering a second rhinoplasty, this episode offers an essential perspective on what can realistically be improved, when another surgery may be appropriate, and when the risks may outweigh the potential benefits.
Before undergoing another nose surgery, this is a conversation you don't want to miss.

What happens when you experience a serious complication after plastic surgery—and the surgeon responsible for your care is nowhere to be found?
In this episode of Plastic Surgery Uncensored, Dr. Rady Rahban sits down with a physician and mother of two who found herself in exactly that situation. She did her research, chose a board-certified plastic surgeon, checked his credentials, and entered surgery believing she had done everything right. But when she developed a postoperative infection weeks later, communication with her surgeon became increasingly difficult, leaving her to navigate a potentially dangerous complication largely on her own.
Together, Dr. Rahban and his guest examine where her care broke down, what a surgeon’s responsibility should be when complications arise, and why choosing a qualified surgeon is only one part of protecting yourself as a patient.
They also discuss the difficult reality of finding another plastic surgeon willing to take over postoperative care, the emotional toll of feeling abandoned after elective surgery, and what patients should do when they realize something isn’t right.
This is a cautionary story every patient considering plastic surgery needs to hear—because complications can happen, but how your surgeon responds to them matters just as much as the surgery itself.

What should you realistically expect when you decide to remove your implants?
In this episode of Plastic Surgery Uncensored, Dr. Rady Rahban sits down with his patient Raina for an honest conversation about explantation, the growing concerns surrounding implants, and what patients need to understand before making the decision to remove them.
After years of living with implants, Reina developed significant asymmetry and capsular contracture, ultimately forcing her to consider what came next. Her goal was to go smaller and, if possible, remove her implants altogether—but only with a clear understanding of what her anatomy could realistically support.
Together, Dr. Rahban and Reina discuss explantation, breast implant illness, capsular contracture, breast lifts, and the increasingly popular use of fat transfer after implant removal. Dr. Rahban explains why removing an implant is only one part of the equation—and why realistic expectations are critical when determining what can actually be achieved.
Reina also shares what ultimately happened when Dr. Rahban removed her implants and was able to achieve the smaller, more proportional result she wanted without replacing them.
If you have implants and have ever considered removing them, this is a conversation you need to hear before making that decision.

What happens after you lose 100 pounds—or more? For many patients, reaching their goal weight is only half the journey.
In this episode of Plastic Surgery Uncensored, board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Rady Rahban explores the reality of massive weight loss and what happens to the body after significant changes in weight. While losing weight can dramatically improve health and quality of life, it can also leave behind substantial excess skin that diet, exercise, and further weight loss simply cannot address.
Dr. Rahban breaks down the procedures commonly used in post-weight-loss body contouring, from arm and thigh lifts to circumferential body lifts, breast surgery, and the L-TAP procedure. He also explains why reaching a sustainable goal weight before surgery is critical, how these procedures should be strategically staged, and why surgical technique, markings, scar placement, and who closes your incisions can have a significant impact on the final result.
Most importantly, this episode is about planning for the entire journey—not just the number on the scale. If you are currently losing a significant amount of weight, have already reached your goal, or are considering body contouring afterward, this is a conversation you’ll want to hear before deciding what comes next.
