Dr Pimple Popper Is Here To Brighten Up Even The Greyest Of Days

Dr Pimple Popper Is Here To Brighten Up Even The Greyest Of Days

Hope you're eating right now.

Straight up, I will safely say I describe these as among the most disgusting videos on the Internet.

Just in case you weren't aware, Dr Pimple Popper, or Dr Sandra Lee to give her professional name, is a Californian dermatologist who, for the last year or so, has been giving us an insight into her work.

She pops spots. Big spots. Cysts, lumps and bumps. There is nothing she won't dig, squeeze and extract.

Dr Pimple (abbreviated) says the purpose of her videos is to 'educate you' about 'different disease of the skin, hair and nails'.

It also gives us something to squirm about (or run away from if you're me).

This time it's a cyst on the back. The video is below and it's horrendous. Enjoy.

She starts with the knife, slitting the cyst open.

Then it's followed up by the classic squeezing - and by God she squeezes... and carries on... and some more...

Dr Pimple Popper then moves on to delicately make sure everything is removed, using tweezers to do so.

The now massively gaping hole is then carefully stitched back up, leaving the patient with a lumpless back.

Here's the science bit...

The problem is known as a 'sebaceous cyst' and is often harmless - and follows the reproduction of epidermal cells.

The 'gunk' is usually wet skin cells which create a cheesy consistency with a pungent odour.

Every time this appears on the Internet, you often question exactly how it can get worse. How can the doctor step it up another level?

She finds a way, but she's not the only one in the business.

Meet Dr Tess, 'America's Favourite Dermatologist'. She's appeared on some top American TV shows and can rival Dr Pimple Popper all the way.

One pimple she popped came with the description, "...every single person in the room jumped in disgust at how the infection spewed out of the patient."

Enjoy. I'm off for a lie down.
