'Botched' Season 8 patient Skittles seeks Dr Paul Nassif's help after lip fillers pop out

'Botched' Season 8 patient Skittles is a digital creator who loves garnering attention

BEVERLY HILLS, CALIFORNIA: 'Botched' Season 8 doctors met a patient, Michael Contreras aka Skittles, whose lips were puckered. Skittles underwent lip fillers, which ultimately backfired, in an effort to become known as 'The Lips of LA'. 

In Season 8 Episode 6, 'Botched' stars Dr Paul Nassif and Dr Terry Dubrow examined Skittles' lip fillers and the extent of the damage caused. Following the diagnosis, Skittles' lips appeared to be functioning normally and could even close all the way.

However, Skittles acknowledged that he loves the limelight and sought to draw everyone's attention with his extensive plastic surgery. He desired to resemble a "bimbo plus-size Barbie."

But Skittles' lips became larger and larger, at one point practically exploding.

The patient described an unpleasant occurrence in which he and a friend were at a club and he accidentally kissed a person while his lips ended up popping.

Skittles shared in the episode, "The juvenile was leaking out and it got all over the guy's face. It was a nightmare." However, the popping didn't stop but Skittles went in the next day to get more lip fillers. 

Skittles was advised by Drs Paul and Dubrow to stop getting fillers on the most recent episode, and his social media accounts appear to support this.

Who is Skittles on 'Botched' Season 8?

Skittles is a digital creator from Los Angeles, California, who dubbed himself a "plastic doll who loves getting his appearance changed."

Skittles dyed his hair and eyebrows pink because he liked to stand out from the crowd. He acknowledged that he regularly changes the color of his hair, much like he does with his partners.

He underwent a number of cosmetic procedures, including two Lipo 360 procedures and many lip injections. He did, however, weigh about 460 pounds when he was in high school.

Skittles lost 100 pounds and learned to love his body, but he also wanted to look better, so he started having cosmetic surgery.

What happened to Skittles on 'Botched' Season 8?

In 'Botched' Season 8 Episode 6, Dr Paul Nassif and Dr Terry Dubrow put a stick in Skittle's mouth to diagnose his swollen lips. When the plastic surgeon put the first stick under Skittles' lips, he wasn't able to touch the stick.

The doctors admitted that his condition had become worse. He further noted that Skittles won't be able to drink anything without it spilling out of his mouth, due to his mouth's suction seal decreasing.

However, the oral incompetence was a good sign to calm down with all that lip filler.

What is 'Botched' Dr Paul Nassif's net worth?

Dr Nassif is a plastic surgeon who has a net worth of $40 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth. In 'Botched' Season 8 Episode 6, Skittles joked and asked Dr Paul Nassif to be his 'sugar daddy'. However, Dr Nassif tweeted and replied to his offer.

Dr Nassif wrote, "Sorry Skittles, Terry's right for once about me! I'm way too cheap to be a sugar daddy! 😅."

Dr Nassif has become one of the most in-demand rhinoplasty surgeons in California. He is a skilled facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon.
