Watch Dr. Pimple Popper Pop a 'Pearl' Milia Out of a Patient's Forehead
In a new Instagram video, Dr. Pimple Popper pops a pearl-like milia on a patient’s forehead.
The growth is so big for a milia that Dr. Lee suspected it could actually be a cyst before removal.
Milia are tiny, dome-shaped bumps on the skin that contain dead skin cells.
Look at this pretty pearl. In a new Instagram video, Dr. Pimple Popper—aka, dermatologist and TLC host Dr. Sandra Lee, MD—pops a pearl-like milia on a patient’s forehead. And Dr. Lee says this growth is “one in a milia” due to its fairly sizable girth. We all love a good pun and pop, now don't we?
In the quick clip, Dr. Lee nicks the skin to reach the hidden growth. The famed derm then pushes down with a comedone extractor, popping out a plump, firm milia.
“That’s a big milia!” Dr. Lee exclaims when the round growth emerges. The pearl-like growth is so big for a milia that Dr. Lee suspected it could actually be a cyst prior to getting under the patient’s skin.
“Slipped right out,” one fan commented on the video. It’s true. This was an easy one.
Milia are tiny, dome-shaped bumps on the skin that contain dead skin cells trapped in small pockets near the skin’s surface. In some cases, milia are actually nicknamed “baby acne” or “Epstein pearls" due to their appearance.
