Bridalplasty was a reality television show that aired on E! Network in 2010. The show was hosted by actress and model, Shanna Moakler, and featured 12 engaged women who competed in various challenges to win the plastic surgery procedures they desired before their weddings. The show was criticized for promoting unrealistic beauty standards and glorifying plastic surgery.
Each episode of Bridalplasty followed a similar format. The contestants would participate in a challenge, ranging from lingerie modeling to cake decorating. The winner of the challenge would receive a plastic surgery procedure of her choice, while the others would have to wait until later challenges to have the opportunity to win their desired procedures. The surgeries included breast augmentations, rhinoplasties, liposuction, and tummy tucks.
In addition to the challenges, the contestants lived in a mansion together and competed in various games and activities to earn rewards such as wedding dresses, honeymoons, and wedding rings. The contestants also received makeovers and participated in photo shoots throughout the show.
