Warning: This post contains graphic videos and
images.
It's been a big year dermatologist Dr. Pimple Popper
by her real name, Dr. Sandra Lee). She starred in her own
TLC (which was renewed for a second season
before the first one even finished), appeared on "Jimmy Kimmel Live!", and
partnered with a toy company on a pimple-popping board game.
YouTube channel with pimple popping videos
for her ever-growing base of subscribers. (Current count: More
than 4 million.)
And even though the year is not over yet, Lee has already released
some truly memorable videos featuring cysts, blackheads, and
other poppable skin growths that appear in the body's largest
organ.
Here, in no particular order, are some of the best Dr. Pimple Popper
videos of 2018. Stay tuned as the year progresses – INSIDER will
update this list as new and worthy pops pop up.
The dilated pore of Winer
What's better than a blackhead extraction? AT giant
blackhead extraction.
This post was posted in 2018, and it's still
among most-watched of the year, with more than 8 million views to
dated. It features a dilated pore of Winer – what
is essentially a blackhead clogging a single,
super-stretched-out pore. Skip ahead to the one-minute mark for
the first big squeeze.
The inflamed cyst
In a video from February, Lee deals with a skin issue
it's angry, red, and inflamed.
Rather than outright removing the cyst, Lee instead opts for an
"incision and drainage" procedure, in which she cuts the skin and
drains what's inside the bump. This helps to reduce the risk of
dangerous infection in the inflamed cyst, Lee explains on
YouTube, but it also makes for a truly fascinating pop. When the
cyst contents really start flowing, they come out in one long,
almost square-shaped tube, thanks to the shape of Lee's cut in
the skin. It's almost surreal.
Here are the best popping videos – so far
This is a pop that unfolds slowly, the kind of saga you can curl
up and watch with some popcorn
thing). Now, if you're impatient, skip ahead to the 4:50 mark.
The 'never-ending blackhead surprise'
This video from June starts with Lee popping some ordinary
blackheads on a patient's nose. Then, the patient reveals that
she has another blackhead – a giant one – hiding behind her ear.
No wonder Lee titled this video "never-ending blackhead
surprises. "

popping videos of the year
The blackhead itself is everything fans dream of: It's way bigger
than it seems from the surface and it comes out in one
solid clump. In fact, when Lee posted a snippet of the video
Instagram one comment described
blackhead as "next-level." Watch it starting at the
four-minute mark below:
The cheek full of oatmeal
In this video from February, Lee slices open and squeezes out an
epidermoid cyst – a typically harmless growth made of dead,
wet skin cells trapped in a confined space below the skin. Often,
this cyst's content is a lot like cottage cheese. This one
happens to resemble oatmeal.
The 'juicy' steatocystoma squeeze
Every ounce in a while, Lee treats a patient who's also a pimple
popping fan. In this video from June, she treats one such patient
– and even lets him give a hand to his squeeze
steatocystoma. (That's a cyst that contains primarily
skin oil, gold sebum.)
During the procedure, the patient is also Facetiming with loved
at home who react to the pop in real time. Turn the volume
up for the full effect.
The extremely brave patient with bumps on his privates
With more than 5 million views as of this writing, this video is
from January is among Dr. Pimple Popper's most popular of 2018.
It features calcinosis cutis – the scientific name for calcium
deposits in the skin that manifest as small, covered bumps.
The patient in this video happens to
have hundreds of them, all located on his scrotum.
The bumps are painless and benign, according to a
Paper published in 2017 in the Journal of Medical Case Reports.
But Lee's video reminds viewers that even technically harmless
growths can have very real, very negative impacts on a patient's
life. Lee recently told INSIDER that she deliberately tries to send
this message in her videos.
Watch her squeeze and remove the bumps below, and you'll see
exactly why she called this patient "extremely
brave."
The 'lasagna noodle'
The food metaphors continues with this stellar cyst-pop, first
posted to YouTube in July. Fair warning: There's a lot of blood
before the big payoff, when the Lee squeezes the growth and the
happy come out in one flat, long ribbon. ("It's almost like a
lasagna noodle, "Lee remarks during the video.)
Watch the whole thing if you can stomach the bleeding, or skip to
8:19 for the actual pop.
