BEVERLY HILLS, CALIFORNIA: When Dr Paul Nassif first saw Kristyn's nose, all he could do was sigh in concern. Dr Nassif faced a challenge with the 'Botched' Season 8 patient and hairdresser on the February 1 episode. Although Dr Nassif hoped to carry out the surgery on Kristyn, he had to accept that she was not ready to proceed at this time due to the dangers. However, not much is known about Kristyn at the time, and fans can hope she came to terms with reality or pursued other options.

Who is Kristyn on 'Botched' Season 8?

In Season 8, Episode 13 of 'Botched' on E!, fans witnessed another round of transforming adventures as patients sought the expertise of renowned plastic surgeons Dr Terry Dubrow and Dr Nassif. Titled "Big Booty Queen," this episode delivered three riveting stories, each with its own set of problems.

The episode promised a mix of emotional narratives and aesthetic aspirations. It featured Linda from Hawaii, struggling with gnarly stomach scars and longing for Dr Dubrow's expertise to rediscover self-love. There was also social media sensation Sammy, desiring breast enhancement to match her large posterior. Finally, hairdresser Kristyn was obsessed with fixing her nose's caricature-like features.

Fans learned that Kristyn prefers to be in charge of circumstances. Still, she must follow Dr. Nassif's guidance if she doesn't want her story to end like her previous operation. Understanding that this would be a reconstruction rather than a refinement is a start! However, Dr Nassif informed Kristyn that to reconstruct her caricature-looking nose, he would have to chop off the tip completely. The surgery involved certain risks significant enough to spook the hairdresser, ultimately leading Kristyn to back out of the surgery.

What happened to Sammy in 'Botched' Season 8?

In the most recent episode of 'Botched,' the doctors hope Sammy does not undergo a fourth Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) after turning down her plea for more. According to Dr Nassif, one in every 3,000 fatalities is due to BBL. The fact that the risk increases with each BBL is beyond comprehension. The 'Botched' doctor urges people to be aware of the hazards and to seek treatment from a trustworthy and qualified practitioner!

What happened to Linda in 'Botched' Season 8?

Linda's abdomen has returned to normal, and she now has a belly button thanks to Dr Dubrow's operation. During the procedure, the 'Botched' doctor encountered various difficult situations, including her small intestine waving at Dr Dubrow from within her. Finally, the operation was a success, allowing Linda to put an end to her pain and shame.
