The creator of Nip/Tuck, Ryan Murphy, believes his FX series changed how plastic surgery is socially discussed. During an appearance at New York Comic Con on October 11, Murphy, 60, told the audience that the show, which aired from 2003 to 2010 and starred the late Julian McMahon and Dylan Walsh, helped encourage vocal transparency around surgical enhancements. "One of my first big shows was a show called Nip/Tuck that was about plastic surgery, and I was amazed at how taboo it was to talk about it," Murphy said at the time per a report by People on Sunday, November 30.
