Known fondly as the “Butt Doctor,” Dr. Michael Jones is a world-renowned cosmetic and reconstructive surgeon, who has been instrumental in developing a groundbreaking procedure to treat keloids in people of color. A published author and pioneer in surgery for darker skin types, Dr. Jones’ research has enabled him to make advancements in the field such as a scar-free rhinoplasty procedure. This season on “WE ARE THE JONESES,” Dr. Jones tackles a challenging keloid case, as viewers get a front row seat to a revolutionary new treatment process that will change the patient’s life forever.
A powerhouse in her own right, Cathleen Trigg-Jones is an Emmy Award-winning journalist, producer, actress, and host of her own talk show, Chic Chat. As the heart of the practice, Cathleen also manages all of the marketing for Lexington Plastic Surgeons and its expansion into new cities. This season on “WE ARE THE JONESES,” Cathleen also embarks on her own emotional journey to find her birth parents that inspired her charity, Trigg House, which focuses on the emancipation of foster children. Adopted as a baby, Cathleen’s life before the age of two is a mystery. Who gave her up for adoption? Will finding the truth finally give Cathleen a sense of belonging?
From the Joneses themselves to the everyday women and men seeking healing, “WE ARE THE JONESES” reveals the awesome power of cosmetic surgery to transform lives. While everyone is trying to keep up with the Joneses — including the Joneses — the most important thing to this New York City power couple is family.
