Back Atcha August 24, 2022 Share August 24, 2022 It will be interesting to see if they're able to restore REAL and growable hair. I know there are some "miracles" with sewn in hair that's not natural and won't grow. I already feel so sorry for the participants. Link to comment
SunnyBeBe August 25, 2022 Share August 25, 2022 Omg! The blonde doctor on Bad Hair Day is located in my city of Raleigh, NC. I’m so excited. Definitely, starting a thread now. 1 1 Link to comment
Athena5217 August 25, 2022 Share August 25, 2022 (edited) I feel like the “discuss the skin condition with a friend/family member” conversations are getting more ridiculous. The hairdresser was discussing her lipoma with her colleague while doing someone’s hair! That poor woman getting her hair done while being forced to listen to a conversation about the third boob lipoma. At least this wasn’t My Feet Are Killing Me because then the hairdresser would have taken off her shoe while operating the curling iron.

And did anyone else fast forward through the Christmas photo stuff? I want pops, and photos. Now watching last week's show but will fast forward past the stretched ear lobes. They are the only things so far, that I can't watch. 3 Link to comment

There have been a lot of CREEPY antics on this show, but a Skin Tag Snowglobe? That has to be beyond the pale. From some online dictionary: "What does beyond the Pale mean? Of a person or their behaviour: outside the bounds of what is acceptable, or regarded as good judgment, morality, ethics, etc." THEN I had to look up the reason "Pale" was capitalized. "In the 16th and 17th centuries, the parts of Ireland under English jurisdiction were called 'the Pale.' And 'the Pale' was also used to refer to the French territory of Calais under English jurisdiction." 2 1 1 Link to comment

auntjess January 2, 2023 Share January 2, 2023 On having all the staff at the Christmas party, I'd bet they get TLC money for appearing, and their family can see them, so it is a perk they may enjoy. Unrelated, I've seen a show on the schedule for TLC, Awake Surgery, but haven't gotten up the nerve to peek at it. Did anyone? Link to comment

auntjess March 14, 2023 Share March 14, 2023 Has anyone else seen this ALL commercial? Seems like she's trying to look like Dr. Lee.https://www.ispot.tv/ad/1V2f/all-free-clear-laundry-detergent-sensitive-skin-superfans-featuring-dr-lindsey-zubritsky Apparently she's on TikTok. Dr.Lee should have her legal people look into it. 1 Link to comment
RoxiP March 14, 2023 Share March 14, 2023 I don't see that there's an issue. This woman (I looked her up) is a board certified dermatologist with great credentials, may have Asian heritage, has a last name that is hard to spell so goes by Dr. Z, and apparently has 856.3K Tik Tok followers (whatever the heck that means) - the only thing that reminded me of Dr. Lee was the shot from the back - their hair is similar - but from the front she looks a lot younger than Dr. Lee. I'm sure there is nothing to see here...LOL! And I'm still not going to watch Tik Tok. 4 Link to comment

Somehow I missed this! Ewwww! That would be like Dr. Now making a Christmas stocking from the stomach he removed from a bariatric patient. The one time I got truly grossed out was when she lanced that giant cyst on that bald man's knee. Seeing the contents of that cyst permanently put me off cottage cheese. I will be watching tomorrow night. I like Dr. Lee and I find her line of work very interesting. 3 Link to comment

Pi237 April 6, 2023 Share April 6, 2023 It’s just evil that American insurance companies won’t cover most removals, calling them ‘cosmetic.’ She gets these things done in her office, in a few hours, and in most cases, less than that. And these people’s lives are improved drastically. Yet, most are made to suffer their whole lives because they can’t afford it, or their stories are sad or shocking enough to get on tv. 4 1 6 1 Link to comment

kwnyc April 7, 2023 Share April 7, 2023 Wow...Kenny's face was completely transformed by the removal of the tumors. I hope that he can keep going back every couple of months to have more of them removed. (I respect that Dr. Lee keeps a sharp eye on the amount of numbing she does.) I wondered if his teeth were messed up because of his condition, and sure enough, she commented on that. The lady with the lip needed a plastic surgeon, and fortunately, Dr. Lee qualifies. So often on the show, people get "I can't do anything about that" from a doctor who has no interest in finding someone who does. (I also did not know that mucous membranes can heal without stitches). As for the autistic man and his mom...that was heartbreaking that she both couldn't find people who were covered by her insurance AND that she had to find someone who could deal with both his skin condition and his autism. That was a perfect job for Dr. Lee. Along with the grizzly pops, Sandra Lee is a lovely human. The combination makes this a great show. 10 3 Link to comment

SunnyBeBe April 20, 2023 Share April 20, 2023 (edited) I look at this show with different eyes since having my Moh’s surgery last year. I strongly encourage annual skin screenings.

Back Atcha April 20, 2023 Share April 20, 2023 There are several times when I've wished this show would let us know exactly HOW LONG some of these procedures took. Several years ago I had MOHS surgery on a tiny dot at the corner of my eye. It took hours! 6 Link to comment
Rickster April 20, 2023 Share April 20, 2023 It’s also clear that there’s a lot of testing that goes on in advance, like MRI’s for lipomas. It not like the patient gets off a plane, stops off at Dr. Lee’s tent, and heads to the back for a procedure. 8 Link to comment

GaT April 20, 2023 Share April 20, 2023 The woman with the miasma struck me as someone who just spent too much time looking at herself on social media. Yes, she had a skin condition, but I doubt I would have even noticed it if I saw her in RL. 14 Link to comment
jcbrown April 21, 2023 Share April 21, 2023 There is way too much backstory in this show now. I don't need to dwell on how awful the patients' lives are. A bit of context is fine but an hour for only three patients is ridiculous. 11 2 Link to comment

RoxiP April 21, 2023 Share April 21, 2023 I know! That man with the cysts on his head - we basically saw her do the one big pop and then barely got a glance at the rest of a few of them and there were at least 7. I'm sorry he lost his girlfriend and quite honestly had the nicest not stepdaughter ever but enough of that! I fell asleep when the woman with the eczema was talking so I'll have to go back and watch the doctor portion. 5 Link to comment
