Dr. Pimple Popper kept some of her greatest hits coming over the holiday weekend, this time with a super-clip posted to Instagram that depicts some of her most memorable cyst pops from over the years.
In the roughly four-minute montage, Dr. Pimple Popper-aka, dermatologist and TLC host Dr. Sandra Lee, MD-shows off everything from standard blackhead and whitehead extractions to juicier epidermoid and sebaceous cysts.
Cysts are highly common and form for a wide variety of reasons, usually due to a blockage that develops when a pore or follicle becomes clogged with dead skin or sebum. (WebMD has a helpful guide to the various types if you need some brushing up.) While Dr. Pimple Popper makes it look easy-and tempting-it's not advised that people try to pop them on their own. If a cyst suddenly grows in size or becomes a problem, you're better off leaving the popping to the pros.

While we're not quite as prepared to go as far as the one commenter who called the clip "better than any fireworks show I've seen tonight," there's a little something here for everyone. (If you're eager to see more original content from Dr. Pimple Popper, you're in luck: Her
