As a medical professional, Dr. Sandra Lee (aka Dr. Pimple Popper) has made a name for herself by tackling some of the most challenging dermatological cases on television. In the season 5 opener, "Leave it to the Nevus," Dr. Lee takes on a particularly tricky case involving a patient with a large, uneven birthmark covering most of her face.

The episode begins with Dr. Lee meeting with the patient, who has been living with the birthmark for her entire life. The birthmark (known as a nevus) has caused her emotional distress and social isolation, leaving her feeling self-conscious and embarrassed in public. Dr. Lee takes a compassionate and gentle approach as she examines the nevus, carefully considering all of the potential risks and benefits of treatment.

After a series of tests and consultations with other medical professionals, Dr. Lee decides to move forward with a course of laser treatment for the nevus. The process is not without its challenges, however, as the nevus is particularly large and complex. Dr. Lee and her team must carefully navigate the delicate skin around the eyes and nose, working to remove as much of the nevus as possible without causing any harm or scarring.

Throughout the episode, we get to see the patient's emotional journey as she undergoes the treatment process. She shares her fears and concerns with Dr. Lee, who offers her encouragement and reassurance every step of the way. Dr. Lee also takes time to educate the patient and her family about the ins-and-outs of dermatology, giving them a better understanding of what the upcoming treatments will entail.

As the laser treatments progress, we see the nevus begin to fade and diminish in size. The patient is thrilled with the results and expresses her gratitude to Dr. Lee and her team. In the final scenes of the episode, we see the patient proudly showing off her new, smoother skin to her loved ones. Dr. Lee ends the episode with a heartfelt message about the importance of sharing kindness and empathy with others, even in the midst of difficult challenges and medical situations.

Overall, "Leave it to the Nevus" is a powerful and moving episode that showcases both the technical skill and emotional intelligence of Dr. Sandra Lee. The show is a testament to the incredible impact that medical professionals can have on their patients, both in terms of physical health and emotional well-being. Whether you're a fan of dermatology or simply looking for a heartwarming story of human resilience, this episode of Dr. Pimple Popper is not to be missed.
