Skin DeepPremiere date: Wednesday, 1 April 2009 at 21h30
Skin Deep is a Canadian cosmetic surgery documentary show that looks at the emotional journey people go through in pursuit of their ideal beauty.
The show explores the intimacy of the experience that changes the patient’s life and asks three questions: who has had cosmetic surgery? What have they had done and why did they do it?
Procedures such as breast augmentation, rhinoplasty, liposuction and facelifts are broken down into the step-by-step processes experienced by each of the series’ subjects: from going “under the knife” to coming to terms with a new look.
The show also covers the culture of cosmetic surgery from the perspective of those who argue that it heals emotional wounds and creates new beginnings for its followers.
The series won a 2001 Best Lifestyle Series Gemini Award.
