The season finale of 'Dr. Pimple Popper' featured a lipoma with a scary secret — here's a closer look at the episode

TLC

• In the season finale of "Dr. Pimple Popper," Dr. Sandra Lee treated a woman with a lipoma on her butt — but it's no ordinary lipoma.
• Tests reveal that the patient, Taylor, has a fat deposit that's inside her spinal cord. 
• It's apparently linked to the bump on her backside, meaning that any removal procedure could be risky.
• Eventually, Lee successfully removes some of the bump to give Taylor a more "normal" appearance.

Fans of Dr. Sandra Lee's TLC show "Dr. Pimple Popper" will have to wait patiently for more pops. While the series has officially been renewed for a second season starting in January 2019, the first season came to a close on Wednesday night. 

The show's first five episodes diverged from the types of pops that made Lee famous on YouTube. Yes, there were still a few bursting cysts and satisfying lipoma removals, but many patients came to Lee for help with complex, mysterious, totally un-poppable skin conditions.See the rest of the story at Business Insider
