A woman who has been living with a large ‘one-horned horn’ pillar on her head has finally appeared in the Bad Skin Clinic – but not before she covers the top skin doctor in gunk yellow putrid.
Tonight’s episode of The Bad Skin Clinic at Quest Red focuses on Samantha, from the UK, who has been living with a large, spherical cyst for the top of her head for the past two years.
But despite hiding it as best she can with her bright multi-colored hair, she admits the bump has ruined her confidence.
‘There is no hiding. I don’t know what the right word is, maybe a shame, ‘she says. ‘That’s exactly how it makes me feel. Before I was out and about, and now I wish I hadn’t seen it. ‘

Sticking out of the top of her head, the lump is immediately visible, something Samantha has been talking to when she talks to friends.
‘It appeared about two years ago as a small lump that I hadn’t thought about, and gradually it got bigger,’ she reveals. ‘When I look in the mirror he yells at me. I can’t help but look at it. Everyone looks at it when I talk to them, it’s sad that it’s there and I can’t hide it. ‘
Samantha’s daughter Alesha admits she has seen a change in her mother ever since the lump appeared.
‘Before the lump came, she was very confident and she would throw a lot of parties all the time, we would have a lot of fun. But he just stopped, ‘she says. ‘It destroys her self-confidence.’
With her confidence low, Samantha turns to Dermatological Doctor and skin superhero Dr. Emma Craythorne at her clinic on Harley Street to see if she can finally bless her head cyst and take control of her life .

‘So Samantha, in addition to the most amazing Unicorn hair, what you came up with today,’ Dr Emma asks, referring to Samantha’s vibrant locks.
‘Unicorn on all sides!’ Samantha mocks, showing the expert the lump on the top of her head. ‘It’s a cyst. I have been to the doctors and that is what I was told. ‘
Revealing everything to Dr. Emma, Samantha describes how the lump gets in her daily life.
‘If I catch it like I brush my hair, it scratches it, obviously, because it’ s pulling out, ‘she says.
Expressing her bubbly side through her hair style, Samantha even reveals that the cyst has stopped stroking her hair as she pleases.
‘I used to be clear all over, but I hadn’t been making it clear at the top because I don’t want to draw attention to the top.’
After asking her first questions, Dr. Emma comes in on a pair of gloves and her safety watch before examining the lump for herself.
‘This actually looks a little like a unicorn, but just, you know, a little baby unicorn horn where the little bud just comes out,’ says Dr Emma. laughter.
But there is nothing mythical about Samantha’s lump, as Dr. Emma explains to her.
‘So this looks like a pillar cyst. They are actually very common, but they are not so common that you see them grow to this size, ‘notes Dr Emma.
All scratched up and with masks on, she invites Samantha into the operating room before treating the cyst of her head with a local anesthetic.
Making the first incision into Samantha’s scalp, Dr. Emma removes a scab of skin until she gets at the cyst wall that lies beneath.
‘Pillar cysts are usually less fibrous and go down under the material around them, they tend to grow as they push everything out of the way,’ says Dr Emma. explaining. ‘They’re just desperate to leave the skin.’
Feeling its way around the cyst wall coming out of the incision wound, the expert prepares to squeeze the cyst out, neatly in one piece, bag and all nothing.
‘It’s like an egg quails,’ Mottie, Dr Emma’s assistant, jokes.

The procedure is not as clean squeaky as Dr. Emma had hoped, as the cyst wall breaks, covering her in a turning flood, a yellow gun (pictured)
With help from Mottie, Dr. Emma begins to squeeze, causing the cyst sac to explode through the incision injury. But the approach isn’t as squeaky clean as Dr. Emma had hoped, as the cyst wall breaks, covering her in a flood of yellow, yellow guns!
‘It’s amazing, isn’t it? That was very satisfying, ‘says Dr Emma. ‘It’s like cottage cheese!’ Mottie adds.
As she shows the dismembered cyst for the first time, Samantha can’t believe her eyes. ‘That’ s been growing inside me !? she gasps.
With the cyst removed, all that is left for Dr. Emma to do is rinse the wound and stab it up before putting Samantha on her way. It was just a quick approach, but for Samantha it means the world.
‘I feel amazing, I can’t believe Dr Emma managed to remove the lump,’ she says. ‘It will make a big difference in my life!’
