In a painful-looking promotional movie, a grandpa who was embarrassed by his nose, which he describes as “the size of a plum,” had pieces of his face hacked off.
John previously discussed living like a ‘hermit’ and felt ‘stuck’ inside because he was heartbreakingly too humiliated to leave his house.
In a teaser clip from an upcoming episode of Dr Pimple Popper, he has a surgery to help him breathe and shrink the size of his nose.
The TLC reality show follows patients from around America who come to dermatologist and cosmetic surgeon Dr Sandra Lee for assistance with their’spots,’ whether it’s a ‘third breast’ beneath an armpit or a guy with 400 tumours on his body.
John had lately told his narrative, which began, ‘I have a nose the size of a plum.’
He goes on to say that his nose has grown ‘twice as broad and longer’ over the previous three decades due to ‘major alterations’.
‘It feels kind of like snakeskin, and there’s scars, it’s rough.’
In the clip, Dr Lee carves out pieces of his nose, with the TLC caption comparing it to ‘slicing deli meat’.
‘Are you wincing because it really hurts’ she asks him during the surgery, to which he replies: ‘Not because it really hurts, I can feel it but it doesn’t really hurt.’
She then instructs John to close his eyes as she cuts the edge of his nose, explaining: ‘I can already see your nostril opening up.’
She later tells the camera: ‘This is good because I’m taking huge chunks off of John’s nose and this is really going to help him breathe better.
‘I just hope that he allows me to keep going, we have some work to do, and he lets me dig deep here.’
This follows John’s tragic admission that his nose has contributed to his despair, stating that he has been unable to leave his residence.
He told a doctor: ‘Well when you sit at home, and have nothing going on, you don’t go out, all you do is sit, you get depressed.’
John continued to the camera: ‘To have this problem for 20 years is terrible. I’m trapped, I don’t get out. I don’t associate with people.
‘I’m a hermit backed up in the house.’
He said, sobbing, that he hasn’t been able to see or see his family due of his nose.
‘I don’t go to Christmas, birthdays, my little great-granddaughter, she’ll look at you and say, “Is that your nose?” It’s embarrassing.’
Dr Pimple Popper airs on TLC in America.
