Minetaro Kishi (Ryuta Sato) is a skilled and serious-minded plastic surgeon.  He looks down on doctors earning money through cosmetic surgeries as well as on women asking for such medical procedures.  However, having to repay his father’s debt, Minetaro chooses lucrative work at a clinic specializing in aesthetic plastic surgery.

The clinic is full of beautiful women, including the director Mari Yukawa (Kimiko Yo) who is well known for her skills in breast reconstruction, a highly-trusted doctor Mutsumi Ichii (Izumi Inamori) and a cheerful nurse Aoi Kishitani (Kii Kitano).  But most of them have already had some work done to their faces, and they strongly believe that “faces are for lives.”

Various types of patients visit this clinic.  As Minetaro needs to keep this job to continue paying off the debt, he has no choice but to respond to the patients’ selfish requests, such as, “I need my previous face back because my husband suspects that I may cheat on him now that I have a surgically-altered, young-looking face.” or “I want to change my face and look different from my twin sister.”  But their wishes make him wonder…  If they change their appearances, will their futures become brighter? Will their worries disappear?

“Beauty” is the keyword set in this human drama, depicting the true feelings of women through the eyes of a surgeon who isn’t attuned to reading a woman’s mind.

岸峰太郎（佐藤隆太饰）是一位医术高超，但生性耿直的一名整容外科医生。他非常鄙视在整容外科赚钱的医生和期望接受这种医疗的女性。 可是因为要偿还父亲留下的债务，不得已在薪水高的美容整形专门诊所工作。

诊所内以乳房再建医疗而著名的院长汤川玛丽（余贵美子饰）为首，受患者信赖的市井睦（稻森泉饰）医师、开朗的护士岸谷葵（北乃纪伊饰）等美女云集。可是她们都整过容，持有「唯有美貌才是生命」的想法。

这样的诊所里到访各种各样的患者。为了还债只想着不被解雇的峰太郎，只好附和患者们的无理要求。「好不容易得到年轻容貌，可是老公怕我会搞外遇，所以想变回原来的模样」「我想整容，跟双胞胎姐姐完全不一样的脸」等，每当听到患者们要改变容貌的理由，峰太郎心中一片茫然。究竟得到了所期望的容貌，明亮的未来会等着吗？心中的苦恼会消失吗…。

这是一部无法理解女性心理的笨拙医师，透过「美」这个话题来探索女性心声的温情人间电视剧。
