Dr Pimple Popper patient Margarita has ‘ugly alien lump’ hanging underneath armpit
Margarita says her ‘alien lump’ is heavy and squishy, with “an ugly vein going through it.” She describes it as a “medium-sized mango,” and says she wouldn’t pick it up if she saw it on the aisle.
The 73-year-old first noticed the lump 11 years ago, but had no luck with doctors, and therefore ignored it for years. However, it’s now grown so big it’s gotten to the point where the patient can’t ignore it any longer.
After years of suffering, it’s now time for the patient to visit Dr Sandra Lee, in hopes she can remove it once and for all.
Upon taking a look and a feel, the doctor says the weighty bump looks like a lipoma, however, can’t be 100% sure.
Due to the vein and the placement of the bump, the doc knows it’ll be a tricky procedure, but as always, she’s ready to get down to business.
Although nervous, the patient is up for the procedure, stating she “just wants the monster taken off.”
‘It looks like cooked chicken!’
Dr Lee begins by making an incision in the huge bump, and instantly discovers it’s a lipoma. She then begins to squeeze, as it looks like the lipoma is coming out whole. However, she then realizes it’s pedunculated, and is positioned in “one of the worst possible places,” meaning she has to be careful where she cuts.
Being the pro that she is, the doc removes it safely in one go, to everyone’s relief. Just one more problem though, the huge vein is still attached to the skin. But, the pro that she is the doc ties it off easily and successfully and removes the extra skin.
“It looks like cooked chicken!” the doc explains if she asks the patient if she wants to hold her lipoma. Understandably, she declines.

The 73-year-old is overjoyed with the results, as she thanks the doc for changing her life for the better. “Today is the first day that I won’t have to hide!” she exclaims. “This is the day I’ve been waiting for.”
