UPLAND, CALIFORNIA: With a tricep lump, Brent from 'Dr Pimple Popper' visits Dr Sandra Lee's office. Brent has a lipoma and is hoping that Dr Pimple Popper can treat his tricep bulge, which has been "soft" and "squishy" for 12 years.
Dr Lee, the dermatologist famed for her pimple-busting prowess in videos that have gotten millions of views on the internet, spoke up about her successful TLC series and how her trademark term came about as season 9 of 'Dr Pimple Popper' continues to adorn TV screens this summer.
The new season of 'Dr Pimple Popper', which began airing June 21 on TLC, includes 10 brand-new episodes and "show more of a variety" of procedures and conditions, according to Dr Lee. 'Dr Pimple Popper' Season 9 airs every Wednesday until August 23 on TLC. Here's everything you need to know about Brent from the episode titled "California Bumpin'".
Who is Brent on 'Dr Pimple Popper' Season 9?
Brent had a tricep lump that may have been embedded in his muscle. Brent is just one of many clients who have relied on Dr Pimple Popper to address their odd skin problems. When he initially saw the bulge, he went to the doctor. He claimed his lipoma "sits on his tricep" and has done so since he discovered it 12 years ago.
He noted that, while it feels "soft and squishy" to touch softly, it "feels hard" to press further. "The doctor said it's a lipoma," Brent confessed, "but it was too attached to my muscle for him to do a procedure." Brent went on to say, "He said he would have to cut out my muscle to get rid of the lump."
Lipomas are fatty lumps that form beneath the skin. Lipoma symptoms include a slow-growing soft lump that may move slightly when pressed, although they are typically not addressed.
In Brent's instance, he displayed a massive tricep bulge on Dr Pimple Popper, which TLC captured from every angle. The bulge was so large that it seemed to be a gigantic ball of fat when filmed from behind his arm. Despite the fact that he discovered the mass 12 years ago, a doctor declined to operate on it. With Dr Lee's experience treating lipomas, she is now prepared to address Brent's predicament and, perhaps, shrink the lump.
What happened to Brent on 'Dr Pimple Popper' Season 9?
What could be more emotional than witnessing the birth of a human child? Of course, seeing Dr Pimple Popper deliver a massive lipoma from a patient's arm.
On Wednesday's episode of 'Dr Pimple Popper,' dermatologist and TLC star Dr Lee, MD treated a fatty growth bulging out from a patient's tricep. She began by creating an incision over the protrusion, revealing what seemed to be an egg yolk beneath the skin. The orange lipoma came easily out in one piece with a little squeezing—a very pleasant snap!
A lipoma is a skin bulge formed by an excess of fat cells. It is yet unknown why some people develop lipomas, but genetics, pre-existing medical disorders, and accidents might all play a part. You don't have to remove a lipoma, but you might choose to if it satisfies specific requirements.
Where is Brent from 'Dr Pimple Popper' Season 9 now?
Brent's lipoma was found to be benign. If Brent had removed it when it was the size of a walnut, it would not have grown so large and dangerously twisted on his muscle. Dr Lee made certain that Brent's muscle was not removed.
Brent looked fantastic throughout his update. Dr Lee corrected his tricep pop.
TLC airs new episodes of 'Dr Pimple Popper' Season 9 on Wednesdays at 9 pm ET.
