BEVERLY HILLS, CALIFORNIA: 'Botched' Season 9 patient Chase turned to the Botched doctors Terry Dubrow and says Paul Nassif to address issues with his chest skin resulting from a botched surgery by his previous surgeon. Describing the unfortunate experience to the Botched doctors, Chase revealed that his inexperienced former surgeon had essentially scooped out a portion of his skin, comparing it to using an ice cream scooper. The surgeon then repositioned the skin haphazardly, leaving Chase with an appearance he likened to a salami.

Opening up to the Botched doctors, Chase shared the regrettable journey of how he ended up with the inexperienced surgeon and the subsequent complications. Expressing his remorse, he sought a solution and underwent a new surgery performed by Dr Terry to correct the botched outcome. The Botched doctors agreed to help Chase address the aftermath of the previous procedure and work towards improving the look of his chest skin.

Chase, a new patient at 'Botched' from California, faced challenges due to rapid weight loss, resulting in loose skin on his chest. He explained to the Botched doctors that his previous surgery was a disaster. His surgeon, who was performing a top surgery for the first time, lacked experience. In an unexpected turn of events, Chase even assisted his previous surgeon during the procedure, sharing pictures that showcased the problematic outcome.

Chase's previous doctor then acknowledged the challenges and agreed to "try" to do a top surgery on him, which ultimately failed. Describing the situation to the Botched doctors, Chase shared his journey. "I decide to go back to the surgeon who had done my stomach as I was his Guinea pig as I was the first one that he ever did it with," he said to the botched doctors. "I showed him photos and different procedures of how they are normally done and he looked at it and said yeah I can probably try it," he added.
