It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas on TLC and your favourite medical marvels are spreading the cheer.
Their patients don’t want a lot for Christmas, but there’s just one thing they need, and Dr. Sandra Lee aka Dr. Pimple Popper, and Dr. Ebonie Vincent and Dr. Brad Schaeffer from My Feet Are Killing Me are here to make their wish come true. In a burst from the best, cysts are a-popping and lipomas are dropping in new special Dr. Pimple Popper: Seasons Squeezings airing Sunday 20 December at 7:30pm, while in My Feet Are Killing Me: Under the Mistletoes on Monday 21 December at 9:30pm,our expert podiatrists help patients blow up bushels of fun, not fungus, as they dance and prance their way into the holidays
It’s the pop-poppiest season of all and patients know just who to call for their holiday squeezings. Unless it’s Rudolph’s bright red nose, the undisputed queen of pimple-popping is here to banish blemishes and ailments, so the only thing sleighing is Santa and a shiny, bright complexion. Dr. Sandra Lee is one of America’s top dermatologists, and is single-handedly pioneering the fastest growing medical fascination in decades, with a growing legion of popaholics obsessed with her ‘popping’ videos. The internet sensation has almost 7 million YouTube subscribers, 4 million Instagram followers and 2.6 million Facebook fans.
In Dr Pimple Popper: Seasons Squeezings her patients are – quite literally – popping with presents! Despite it being the busiest time of year, Dr. Lee and her staff will be spreading Christmas cheer and finding out which bumps are VERY naughty and which ones are nice. Highlights include Tywanna, who wants the bump on her forehead removed so that she can take holiday portraits with her family. Jeff has become somewhat of a Grinch since developing bumps all over his body, and he wants them removed so he can be a “jolly old St. Jeff” for Christmas. Marilyn has lost her merry edge and stopped hosting holiday dinners since developing a massive growth on her arm.
In the lead up to the special you can pop non-stop all day with the special event Merry Cyst-mas – a marathon ofDr. Pimple Popper: Pop Ups from 9:50am. Dr. Lee revisits some of her most memorable patients, paired with juicy pop-up facts and behind-the scenes secrets. You won’t want to look, but you’ll find it hard to look away!
Christmas stockings are for filling with treats, but Dr. Ebonie Vincent and Dr. Brad Schaeffer are dealing with fillings of a different kind, with foot conditions from the mild to the severe, to the near unbelievable. The holidays are when everyone wants to put their best foot forward, and in the special My Feet Are Killing Me: Under the Mistletoes, the podiatrists unwrap a thirty-year-old wart, cut off “cornflakes” and discover that one of their mums has bunions. They also fit in time to celebrate, with Dr. Brad hosting a pampering party for a women’s shelter and Dr. Ebonie invites viewers to share in the Vincent Family Christmas.
In good cheer, these doctors are doing what they do best. Afterall, nothing says Christmas quite like giving back.
