Dr. Pimple Popper Season 4, Episode 3: Burst to worst
Dr. Pimple Popper has to break out the scalpel, the needle, and even has to drug a patient in order to remove the oozing pus and raw chicken from her patients this episode.
Two lipomas, ho-hum, but at least there are two bad cases for Dr. Pimple Popper this episode. Let’s recap each of the patients seen on the latest episode!
Allen’s Popeye shoulder
Allen lifts weights. Unfortunately for him, the huge mass on his left shoulder makes it look like all he does is front delt. raises on one side. Before Dr. Lee says it, I feel like it’s a lipoma. Easy. He can either get it cut out, or he can eat enough spinach for the right shoulder. Circle drawn, cut made, raw chicken removed. I’m numb to the normal lipoma.
Steve-o
Long story short, Steve has a huge bump on his head. It’s like half a softball. Somehow, his forehead is only slightly larger than his wife’s forehead. One needle, one scalpel, and the lipoma comes out like egg yolk. His wife says “scrambled eggs and ketchup,” and I instantly judge her. She probably puts ketchup on steak as well.
Any vet of the Dr. Pimple Popper show recognizes this case as a very simple procedure. Could have perhaps been solved via another method.
David returns for a diagnosis.
There is a bad verdict for David. It’s basal cell carcinoma under his right eye. Dr. Lee is going to take off his cheek bump, and also dig around that bad boy. Long story short, she’s carving a huge circle on his cheek roughly the size of his eye. It doesn’t sound bad, but when she starts doing the Mohs procedure, she burns damn near down to his cheek bone.
Under microscope she recognizes there is a second layer to attack. Mohs happens again, and David has a huge crevice in his face. To do so she can’t pull from the top, otherwise he’d perpetually looked shocked on the right side. As an alternative Dr. Lee carves further into his cheek like she’s auditioning for another Hostel sequel. His eventual recovery looks great.
Nicole’s bumps and Adam’s apple.
From Sacramento, CA, Nicole has bumps on her neck, her back…and on her arms. She also has an Adam’s apple, but this isn’t about that type of California issue. It’s very sad. Her neck sort of looks like the surface of the moon.

Some moron dermatologist told her to watch what she’s eating. Anyone who has seen more than a single episode of Dr. Pimple Popper knows that’s not the case. Gotta remove that sac as well.
For some reason, there are subtitles on Nicole even though she speaks perfect English with a very positive attitude.
Dr. Lee dives in to get the steatocystomas, and it’s dis.gus.ting. Every single squeeze ejects either buttery mashed potatoes or a streamer of banana custard. Nicole flinches multiple times, but not nearly as many times as the viewer. Dr. Lee is concerned about Nicole’s comfort level, but apparently she isn’t concerned with the nausea she causes the viewers, because the lemon curd Adam’s apple oozes slowly and traumitizingly. I’m more exhausted than Dr. Lee or Nicole when it’s finally complete.
Next. Dr. Pimple Popper and the nosy limo driver. dark
I need some ginger ale and chicken noodle soup for this upset stomach. Dr. Pimple Popper returns to TLC next Thursday. Eat after the episode.
