Dr. Pimple Popper's video: A Squeeze of Sunscreen Cyst

It's officially summertime and this patient brought their own sunscreen, right in his cheek! How thoughtful, right? Derm PSA to ALL my Popaholics: PLEASE Wear Sunscreen Everyday & remember to reapply! Check out my Instagram and TikTok for a detailed look at how much sunscreen you should actually be using. An epidermoid cyst is a non-cancerous growth commonly found on the skin of the face or neck, but can occur anywhere on the body. Just as its name suggests, these cysts occur as a result of epidermal cells, cells from the top layer of your skin a.k.a the epidermis, overgrow in a confined space. The buildup of these cells under the skin results in a “cheesy” consistency and often a pungent odor! Epidermoid cysts are typically harmless and have no symptoms, but people often seek removal due to the appearance of the bump or because the cyst has become inflamed or ruptured. If you have a ruptured cyst you may notice, sudden redness, pain, swelling, and heat around the area, all of which can lead to an abscess forming. Surgically removing the cyst can cure the area, but the entire cyst sac and all of its contents need to be removed to ensure the cyst won’t grow back!
