Maggiori informazioni sul libro
In this hilarious memoir, a young Korean-American nerd transforms into a renowned plastic surgeon. Dr. Tony Youn grew up in a small town with little diversity, feeling out of place as one of only two Asian-American kids. With his tall, thin frame, thick glasses, braces, and awkward headgear, he faced the challenges of adolescence, including a jaw that began to grow uncontrollably. While his peers enjoyed post-graduation adventures, Youn underwent a life-changing jaw reconstruction that ironically set him on his career path. His journey through medical school was filled with humor, tension, and personal growth, ultimately leading him to become a sought-after plastic surgeon. Now a media favorite, Youn frequently appears on shows like The Rachael Ray Show, and his blog, Celebrity Cosmetic Surgery, is the most popular of its kind in the country. This memoir offers a candid look at the often unseen side of medicine, showcasing Youn's transformation from a shy, awkward teen into a successful professional. It's a relatable read for anyone who has navigated the challenges of adolescence, sought their calling, or simply enjoys a story that evokes both laughter and tears.
