After diagnosing him with a lipoma, the skilled dermatologist explained how she felt a bit "giddy" with the anticipation of his lipoma having the potential for a "really good pop".

Opening up the lipoma, a thick yellow substance emerged as the doctor squeezed and push the sides of the mound together.

She then squeezed harder and the entire lipoma popped out before she stitched up the hole and sent Luis on his way.

Two Noses

Dr Sandra Lee spotted her limousine driver, David, had a "severe rhinophyma growth" on his nose, with the caring doctor desperately wanting to help him.

The condition made the driver appear to have "two noses", but the skilled doctor soon used her special tools to "de-bulk" the thick skin around David's nose and reveal a slimmer more "normal-looking" nose.

During the procedure, Dr Sandra Lee had to surgically "melt" and carve skin away using electricity and heat in the form of a tool called an electrocautery, all before revealing his new nose and new look.

Talkative Lipoma

Leta from California said that she was walking into Dr Lee's office "dysfunctional" because of the lump on her leg, which was later referred to as a "talkative lipoma".

The lady explained how she had the lump for so long, with her branding the experience an "emotional rollercoaster" before getting her lipoma cut out.

As Dr Lee started to remove the lipoma, she thought could hear the lipoma being rather loud, leading to her branding it "talkative", with the show stating that "cysts do have a tendency to 'poot' at her".

The patient then serenaded Dr Lee as a way to relax during the surgery while she was lying flat on her stomach.

Leta's lipoma was soon removed and she could move on and plan her wedding, with her saying she would rather the scar she has now than the lump she had before that she tapped flat when she wore certain clothes.

In 2016 the famous doctor removed an epidermoid cyst, which is "a non-cancerous growth commonly found on the skin of the face or neck, but can occur anywhere on the body".

While a second gushed: "Man I had no idea they got stuff out that dark!!! It's amazing what the body produces."

And a third wrote: "I love how every cyst is different, that's why it would be so fun to be Dr. Lee, it's like opening a new Christmas present everyday."
