UK’S Dr Pimple Popper bursts marble-shaped cysts on woman’s scalp in gross new video
A YOUNG woman whose scalp was covered in marble-shaped cysts has finally had them removed after years of embarrassment.
Chloe, 22, has had lumps on her head for as long as she can remember but admits they grew bigger when she became pregnant.
The lumps left her feeling paranoid and in pain, so she decided to take a visit to see Dr Emma Craythorne, Britain's very own Dr Pimple Popper.
Appearing on tonight's episode of the Bad Skin Clinic, the mum-of-one explained: “I can’t remember them growing, I can’t remember them appearing, they’ve just always been there.
Parting her hair on top of her head, Chloe, from London, reveals a cluster of large, bulging lumps along her scalp.
She said: “I’ve got eight lumps, four big ones, but I’ve got one that causes all the problems.
Inspecting Chloe’s head, Dr Emma provides her with a long-awaited diagnosis.
“I suspect this actually is going to be something called a pilar cyst,” she told her.
"They originate around the base of the hair follicle and their skin is much thicker, so they pop out like a little marble."
In the operating room, Dr Emma starts with the biggest cyst first.
She makes a small incision and then with the help of her assistant Mottie, they gently press down before the cyst capsule pops out of Chloe's scalp.
"One little marble," Dr Emma said as she placed it on a medical tray.
She then works down Chloe's scalp, removing each cyst with its own unique pop.
The second one releases a stick spurt of pus first, which Dr Emma describes as "sticking its tongue out".
"That was a deflated marble," she laughs.
When she gets to the third one, she opts for a punch biopsy for removal which involves using a special instrument to make a small hole in the skin.
It pops out like another perfect little marble.
Dr Emma then turns her attention to the final cyst, which she warns her is the widest one they will be removing.
"It's a little bit oozy," Mottie says, as pus comes squirting out quickly followed by the pop of the "marble" cyst.
With the procedure finished, Dr Emma presents Chloe with her “four lovely little marbles".
Chloe said: “Ah that’s horrible. I could hear all the little squelching noises as they popped out, which was really disgusting.”
Twelve weeks later, the show caught up with Chloe to find out how she was after her treatment.
"My life is really, really different now,” she said.
“With the cysts removed I haven’t got to be worried about anything, I can just be me.
"I feel like I can be a proper mum to Jessy. It’s just made me a lot more relaxed when playing with her and not having to worry about her pulling my hair or having a migraine.”
Chloe's mum Claire admitted that she has seen an enormous change in her daughter too.
She told the programme: “Since Chloe saw Dr Emma the change in her is just amazing.
“She is back to being her normal, bubbly self. Now she can do whatever she wants to do.”

Chloe added: “Dr Emma made me feel so comfortable and confident that I feel like I’m more like myself again.”
