It wasn’t long ago when reality TV was big into plastic surgery.

Hardly a day would go by when one of my patients wouldn't ask me if I saw the latest extreme makeover or Dr. 90210. I have to confess I never really got into them; one big reason is they come on after I was sound asleep. (My practice requires me to be awake and alert early in the morning.)

My oldest son, Jason, gave me a series of “Nip n Tuck” and I promise to pull them out of their case and watch them, when I get some time.

Now, for all of you out their longing for a new show, it has arrived.

Logo TV Network will be airing a new plastic surgery show starting May 2011 the title? I’m not so sure I like it, ”Pretty Hurts.”

Logo TV issued a press release that said the real pain in perpetual beauty with the new reality show. The show chronicles star Rand Rusher who is the self proclaimed “injector to the stars.” He, of course, is located in 90210, i.e. Beverly Hills, where he injects socialites, movie stars, drag queens…tune in to find out more. He also has business manager, Curt, Laser specialist, Joy, office manager, Elizabeth and aesthetician, Maya. Pop some popcorn, sit back, relax and enjoy the show.

The first show is Monday, May 9. Time? Don’t know-if it’s “early,” who knows? I may sneak a peek.
