Family Nose

This week on Body Work we meet our Miami Plastic Surgery family: three doctors who have built an insular world of perfect beauty. They are constantly reshaping themselves and even their staff; all now serve as walking billboards for their expert hands. No one here thinks twice about shooting half a syringe of botox into their forehead before after-work drinks. Dr. Wolf loves to fix noses. ""The thing I love about doing noses is that it's really all about the eyes. Just a few millimeters shaved off the top can change someone's life."" Elaine, a pretty 20-year-old, tells Dr. Wolf that she's ""got a nose like a parrot's beak"" and wants it gone more than anything. Dr. Brad Herman, who considers himself an artist as well as a doctor, is never too busy to donate his services to those who need it in developing countries. But right now Miami patient Alvaro is in for a drastic transformation. The 19-year-old has just lost more than 100 pounds and is now slim and handsome. Except for one thing: the

My Big Ears

This week we uncover the daily challenges of our doctors as they address what it takes to keep their practice No. 1 in Miami. This involves keeping their names on everyone's tongue, looking their best and making professional decisions — they turn down one patient for a breast augmentation who ""has beautiful breasts and doesn't need one."" We also get a glimpse into the special friendship among the doctors as Dr. Kelly schemes an elaborate birthday surprise … Dr. Kelly's patient today is Anna Marie, who's arrived with her best friend of 20 years, Sissy. This feisty duo is a riot: they talk alike, look alike and even dress alike. Anna has come to see Dr. Kelly about breast implants after he gave Sissy her implants. Meanwhile the doctors are having bit of fun with each other. Dr. Herman calls out to his assistant, Yvette, ""Come look at the custom made helmet I got made for Dr. Kelly with his nickname on it!"" In red letters it reads, ""The Terminator."" In a week, Doctors Herman and Kelly wil

Are You for Real?

The earliest he can see you would be the end of August. That's the earliest appointment he has."" It's another morning at the Miami plastic surgery office. Inside, Dr. Brad Herman and Dr. Michael Kelly are giggling over the tiny pair of underwear they bought Dr. Carlos Wolf for his upcoming triathlon. On one side of the bikini underwear reads ""El Mas Famoso,"" a name Dr. Wolf's family has bestowed upon him because he loves being on TV. The office soon gets very busy and the three doctors meet all new patients that day. Not everyone is in for a beauty enhancement — some are there for reconstructive surgery. We first meet Lisa and Steven and their twins: Jiesi who has a cleft lip, and Jieming who has both a bilateral cleft lip and a cleft palette. The family lives in the Cayman Islands and has raised money to bring the twins to Miami for this surgery. Dr. Kelly explains the procedure and the next day, the very nervous and anxious parents show up for surgery. This is Dr. Kelly's specialty,

Pray for My Nose

""These are the biggest ears I've ever seen!"" Dr. Herman has his work cut out for him with 9-year-old, Taylor. Taylor will finally be getting his ears pinned back after a lifetime of teasing from his schoolmates. Even though he's been called everything from ""big ears"" to ""Dumbo,"" Taylor has a great attitude and lots of friends. Dr. Herman is madly in love with him. ""It's a privilege to operate on young kids, because I know I'll truly be making a positive difference in their lives."" Daphna is getting a nose job from Dr. Wolf, and her prayer circle will be praying for her on the day of surgery. Daphna hates her nose, so while she sees her surgery as ""glorifying God's work,"" she'll also be enjoying a new and improved profile. Meanwhile Dr. Wolf's mom, Judy, has come in for botox. At 68, Judy looks and acts 20 years younger — but not because she's had plastic surgery. ""I'll survive my whole life with botox only! No surgery for me!"" Judy has brought in her best friend, Edna, who will be gett

Make Me Perfect

This is a busy office. Everyday patients file in and out. Appointments are made, bills are paid and surgeries are performed. But sometimes the unexpected can disrupt this well-oiled machine. Computers break down, toilets overflow and cleaning becomes an issue. For any office these are annoying problems, but for a plastic surgeon's office even more so. Appearances are everything, and we'll soon see how they handle this challenge. Outside the office, Dr. Kelly and Dr. Herman test their competitive edge further and race each other to the finish line at the Miami racetrack. Kathy is a patient returning for more cosmetic surgery — always reaching for perfection. At 47, she has already had a nose job, a tummy tuck, an eyelift and is now back for a breast augmentation and a little lipo. She is married with children and spends most of her day working out in the gym with her loyal trainer, Leo. At her pre-exam with Dr. Herman, she tries on different breast shapes to determine size, but asks Leo

Three Faces

""It's time to design our T-shirt for the annual Corporate Run (for leukemia research), but this year, to avoid office squabbling, we're going to design the T-shirt in secret."" Dr. Michael Kelly and his two assistants start the morning huddled in his office, brainstorming a design that they hope will win first prize for Miami Plastic Surgery. Meanwhile, the practice's waiting room is filling up with new patients. Dr. Carlos Wolf greets Lorilee who sees him regularly for Botox treatments. This morning, Lorilee brings in her daughter, 16-year-old Keshet who wants her nose fixed. ""Kids who see their parents get cosmetic surgery are more open to the idea of plastic surgery for themselves."" Keshet is a dark, lanky beauty — who Dr. Wolf would like to introduce to his teenage son. She's a soft-spoken girl, but she knows what she wants: a straightened nose with a rounded tip, not pointy like her mom's nose job — and she wants the surgery done in time for her summer trip to Switzerland.

The Fountain of Youth

It only takes a birthday to realize how time is slipping away, and unfortunately, with the years go our fresh looks and youthful appearance. And where else but with a plastic surgeon can someone regain that fountain of youth? Dr. Herman's birthday is coming up and the office is planning a party for him. He's turning 47 and it's hard for him to believe. Rosa, on the other hand, is getting ready to celebrate her 50th birthday and wants a little bit of her youthfulness back. She goes to see Dr. Wolf and tells him, ""I feel happy inside, but my face looks sad."" She's decided to give herself a very special birthday present: a facelift, along with chin and eye surgery. She is also telling none of her good friends — except her hairdresser Abel. Together they plan to highlight her freshened face with a new hairstyle and updated makeup — the ultimate surprise for her friends as they get together to celebrate her big birthday. At 18, Cecilia's life is all about looking good. She's going to school
