A big blackhead, perhaps a Dilated Pore of Winer!
This is a Dilated Pore of Winer, aka a big blackhead. These are usually a little more superficial under the skin, and can be pretty large. The keratin (skin cells) are oxidized, which give it a dark color. This man had this on his back for awhile, and came to see us because he knew that we were the pimple popping experts! ;) FYI, my left hand shakes when I use a needle to anesthetize the area on purpose. Shaking or pinching the skin when using a needle is a distraction technique. You feel less pain if you vibrate or pinch the area simultaneously.
Extracted using our DrPimplePopper comedone extractor, you can see that the sac was removed completely, and that the internal contents a are a little "sticky" and a little difficult to remove. I think we got it all!
Have a great weekend, and to all of you in Dublin, who were able to listen to my interview this Saturday, May 23 on RTE, THANK YOU for watching!
If you are not in Dublin, but would like to listen to the broadcast, please goto rte.ie and search for Dr Pimple Popper! I'll post the link here when I get it!

Hidrocystomas on both eyes!
Hidrocystomas, also known as cystadenomas, sudoriferous cysts, and Moll's gland cysts, are benign cyst tumors that are derived from either the eccrine or apocrine sweat gland. They commonly effect the eyelid, and slowly grow usually on the face or scalp. They both affect males and females, are usually asymptomatic and are more common in adults. Apocrine hidrocystomas aren't affected by temperature, but the eccrine hidrocystomas grow smaller in cooler temperatures and larger in heat exposure. The exact cause is not known but it is said that the eccrine hidrocystoma is due to the obstruction of the sweat gland which causes the retention of secretions and appearance of a dilated cystic structure. The apocrine hidrocystoma is thought to be an adenoma of the coil structure of the apocrine sweat gland. These are found only on certain areas of the body. For example, eyelids, armpits, areolae, external ear and genital region. Compared to the eccrine sweat glands, the ductal openings of the apocrine sweat glands are more closely associated to the eyelashes. The Eccrine sweat glands are found distributed throughout the whole body.

This Cyst is For His Tia..
A Pilar Cyst, aka a trichilemmal cyst, an isthmus-catagen cyst, or a “wen”, looks identical on examination to the more common epidermoid cyst, except that 90% of them occur on the scalp. They tend to be more mobile and firmer than epidermoid cysts, and are derived from a different part of the hair follicle/skin. The internal content tend to be more “homogenous”/ smooth (looks different under the microscope), but it is also a benign growth. It is not uncommon to have multiple pilar cysts on the scalp and to have other family members to have these cysts (tend to run in families). Treatment is for cosmetic reasons usually (people don’t like the appearance of them), and excision with removal of the cyst and it’s contents is curative.

A Surprise Steatocystoma!
Steatocystoma Multiplex appear as multiple, uniform, yellow, cystic papules usually 2-6 mm diameter, located especially on upper anterior trunk, upper arms, axillae, and thighs. Typically no central punctum or umbilication is seen. Majority of cases present with dermal lesions, but multiple subcutaneous masses looking like multiple lipomas can be present. Bumps usually appear in adolescence or early adulthood, probably because sebaceous activity is at its peak. Sometimes larger steatocystomas are prone to rupture and suppuration and can cause scarring and pain.
Steatocytomas typically contain a syrup-like, yellowish , odorless, oily material. If they are inflamed or infected by bacteria, they can develop a foul odor and can be a definite source of social isolation.
This is probably the closest thing to a “sebaceous cyst”, a name that many people including non dermatologist physicians may use to describe an epidermoid cyst which we see more commonly. Steatocystoma may at times have vellus hairs, and eruptive vellus hair cysts may have sebaceous glands (oil glands) in their lining, which leads some dermatologists to believe these two conditions may lie along a continuum, that they may be related.
Treatment is removal with small incisions and extraction, with care on treatment on the trunk because of the increased chance of poor cosmetic result/scarring.

Multiple punch removals of Cysts on the Back & Blackhead Extractions
This is an absolutely lovely patient of mine, whom you may recognize from two previous videos! If you would like to view those videos, see below:
First time we did blackhead extractions on her back:
https://youtu.be/_d3uM9gOVes
Removal of a cyst via punch excision on her back:
https://youtu.be/TzkSsjEf_NE
She is an example of a beautiful woman who gets multiple cysts on her back, and although you can't really see them, she can FEEL them and they make her feel very self conscious. She is very happy to have them removed and was so kind to let us film the procedure. In fact, she says that the procedure is very cathartic for her... she is very relaxed and relieved these bumps are being removed.
Thank you so much for watching!!

A Cyst, A Blackhead, & a Dilated Pore of Winer!!
An epidermoid cyst (Epidermal Inclusion cyst, Infundibular cyst), is a benign growth commonly found in the skin and typically appears on the face, neck or trunk, but can occur anywhere on the body. Another name used is “sebacous cyst” but this is actually an antiquated misnomer, and is not a term used by dermatologists. They are also the most common type of cutaneous cysts. Epidermoid cysts result from the reproduction of epidermal cells within a confined space of the dermis. The pasty contents are mostly composed of macerated keratin (wet skin cells), which creates this “cheesy” consistency, and there can be a pungent odor. An epidermoid cyst may have no symptoms and are typically harmless. Usually people seek removal because they don’t like the appearance of these bumps, or the cyst has ruptured or been inflamed or “infected” in the past. Rupture is associated with sudden redness, pain, swelling, and local heat, and can lead to abscess formation. Also, a history of inflammation, often increases scar tissue in the area, makes the cyst more firmly adherent to surrounding skin, and makes it more difficult to remove. Surgical excision is curative, but the complete cyst removal including the entire cyst sac and contents need to be removed to ensure that the cyst won’t reoccur.
A blackhead is also called an open comedo (single for comedone), and it is a clogged pore in the skin that is open to the air. Keratin (skin protein) and sebum (oil) combine to block the pore. They are often found on the face and trunk. but they can be found anywhere on the body. Blackheads are not clogged with dirt, but it is the exposure to air that causes oxidation turning the internal contents black. They can be extracted using a comedone extractor. I usually use an 11 blade (a blade that comes to a sharp point) and a Shaumberg type comedone extractor.
A Dilated pore of Winer is essentially a large, solitary open comedone/blackhead. Dead skin cells get trapped and help widen this pore, and plugs up the opening. The expression of this plug squeezes out the macerated, white, soggy keratin/skin cells from the deeper portion of the pore. Once the content of the dilated pore is expressed, this whole process of the dilated pore filling once again with keratin is common. They are completely benign and are usually expressed for cosmetic reasons. A comedone extractor can be used to do this.

Small cyst on right cheek excised with suspension stitch
I see this patient mainly for cosmetic issues, and the last visit with her I noticed this bump on her face that she has been dealing with for a while. I think she will be happy to have it removed. I used a suspension suture here, as I have done in some patients in the past.

Blackheads, Milia, Inflamed Cyst & MORE!
A milium (single for milia) is a small superficial cyst formed in the top layer of the skin called the epidermis. They appear as tiny, pearly-white bumps just under the surface of the skin. They contain keratin (skin protein) and are harmless. They are often seen on the face, in particular on the delicate skin around the eyes. They can be prevented or minimized with exfoliating like chemical peels, microdermabrasion or topical retinoids. However, they are sometimes difficult to remove without a physician’s help, since they cannot simply be squeezed out. Often, the surface of the skin has to be pierced first with a lancet, a sharp pointed blade, or a needle, in order to successfully remove the milium. Often a comedone extractor is used to express the milium.
I put “infected” in quotes, because technically this is not an infection: When an epidermoid cyst ruptures, it creates a vigorous foreign body inflammatory response - this skin becomes warm, tender, painful, and swells, simulating an abscess. Incision and Drainage (I & D), will confirm the diagnosis of inflamed cyst, when the cheesy, sometimes odiferous material is evacuated, and this process often leads to rapid resolution of symptoms. These episodes are often misdiagnosed as “infection” of the cyst, but cultures are usually negative and antibiotic treatments is not required. Intralesional steroids can hasten the resolution of symptoms as well.

The UNTOLD story of the Button Blackhead
Wanted to show the complete popping story around this great patient of mine, who was truly patient with me! She had this button blackhead on her upper lip that took me a few times and almost a year to finally get rid of. Most importantly to the both of us, it's gone now, and hasn't left a noticeable scar. Finally! Thank you for watching!!

A Behind the Ear Cyst Squeeze
This young man was accompanied by his mom to get this bump removed behind his right ear. It felt pretty rubbery and had a slight blue hue to it when I examined it, so I wasn't completely positive it was an epidermoid cyst. What do you think?
Oh and I almost forgot! He has a name for his little friend! I didn't get it on tape here but I'll add it to an Update video I publish in the future. Say hello and goodbye to "Larry"!

Inflamed cyst I & D wick on the lower back

I put “infected” in quotes, because technically this is not an infection: When an epidermoid cyst ruptures, it creates a vigorous foreign body inflammatory response - this skin becomes warm, tender, painful, and swells, simulating an abscess. Incision and Drainage (I & D), will confirm the diagnosis of inflamed cyst, when the cheesy, sometimes odiferous material is evacuated, and this process often leads to rapid resolution of symptoms.

A Schwannoma is a benign growth of the tissue that covers nerves. The excision should get rid of the growth so no further treatment is needed.

A 20-year old Embarrassing Bump on the Scalp: Dr Pimple Popper
A Pilomatricoma (aka Calcifying Epithelioma of Malherbe, or pilomatrixoma) is a benign growth derived from hair matrix cells. Usually occurs as a single lesion on the face, neck or upper arms. They cause no pain, but are firm bumps under the skin. The diagnosis is usually made only after looking at the tissue under the microscope. We look for “shadow cells” under the microscope. Calcification and ossification can occur (calcium and bone can develop within) which can make these very firm and hard, much like a pebble or little jagged rock under the skin. These are benign and don’t need to be removed, but if someone requests removal, a surgical excision is needed.

Back to Blackheads!
A blackhead is also called an open comedo (single for comedone), and it is a clogged pore in the skin that is open to the air. Keratin (skin protein) and sebum (oil) combine to block the pore. They are often found on the face and trunk. but they can be found anywhere on the body. Blackheads are not clogged with dirt, but it is the exposure to air that causes oxidation turning the internal contents black. They can be extracted using a comedone extractor. I usually use an 11 blade (a blade that comes to a sharp point) and a Shaumberg type comedone extractor.

The Cyst that "GOT" Dr Pimple Popper!
My Apologies, Popaholics! This video was accidentally published yesterday for two hours, then removed because it was supposed to be published TODAY! So this is NOT technically a repeat (so quit complaining), but if you DID happen to see it yesterday for the two hours that it was public, CONGRATULATIONS YOU WERE TRULY *FIRST*!!!
Love you guys, and thanks for watching!!
An epidermoid cyst (Epidermal Inclusion cyst, Infundibular cyst), is a benign growth commonly found in the skin and typically appears on the face, neck or trunk, but can occur anywhere on the body. Another name used is “sebacous cyst” but this is actually an antiquated misnomer, and is not a term used by dermatologists. They are also the most common type of cutaneous cysts. Epidermoid cysts result from the reproduction of epidermal cells within a confined space of the dermis. The pasty contents are mostly composed of macerated keratin (wet skin cells), which creates this “cheesy” consistency, and there can be a pungent odor. An epidermoid cyst may have no symptoms and are typically harmless. Usually people seek removal because they don’t like the appearance of these bumps, or the cyst has ruptured or been inflamed or “infected” in the past. Rupture is associated with sudden redness, pain, swelling, and local heat, and can lead to abscess formation. Also, a history of inflammation, often increases scar tissue in the area, makes the cyst more firmly adherent to surrounding skin, and makes it more difficult to remove. Surgical excision is curative, but the complete cyst removal including the entire cyst sac and contents need to be removed to ensure that the cyst won’t reoccur.
