Chrissy Teigen Begged Dr. Pimple Popper for Help With a Stubborn Chin Zit
When you get a zit that has made a seemingly permanent home on your face, it can be tempting to jump onto social media and reach out to the reigning queen of blemish busting, Sandra Lee, the dermatologist widely known as Dr. Pimple Popper. Most of us don’t, though, considering we’re not famous enough to grab her attention. Chrissy Teigen, on the other hand, may have a decent shot at getting a response when she tags her in an acne emergency.
On Friday, Teigen, never one to hold back online, shared a video to her Instagram Stories with the caption “@drpimplepopper please I beg u.” Beg her for what, you ask? Help with a long-term lump.

“This is a message for Dr. Pimple Popper,” Teigen said. “I have had this thing on my chin for maybe, like, four years now. It has no exit hole. I used to inject it with…cortisol? Cortisone? It gets bigger around my period. It’s unsqueezable, and it is ruining my life.” That last statement is clearly hyperbolic because, as her other Instagram posts indicate, her life is pretty awesome. But it’s entirely understandable to be frustrated by a zit that just won’t budge.
