Hope you all had a nice, long holiday weekend, because I'm here to break up the party with Dr. Pimple Popper's latest extraction — a pop so great (and borderline nauseating) she's dubbing it her greatest of all time. Are you ready for this jelly (keyword: jelly)?

Southern California-based dermatologist Sandra Lee, a.k.a. Dr. Pimple Popper, recently shared a 38-minute extraction video of an "amazing baby-faced cyst," and let me be honest here: There's nothing baby-faced about this thing. It's big and oozy, and most definitely isn't small in size. The lump, which is about the size of a melon, is on the patient's trunk, and according to Lee, is about 50 years old. (Yes, seriously.)

And although Lee originally thought the patient's lump was a lipoma, a slow-growing, benign growth of fat cells, once she cut it open, she discovered that the mass is actually an epidermoid cyst, a "benign growth commonly found in the skin and typically appears on the face, neck or trunk."

"Epidermoid cysts result from the reproduction of epidermal cells within a confined space of the dermis," Lee says. "The pasty contents are mostly composed of macerated keratin (wet skin cells), which create this "cheesy" consistency, and there can be a pungent odor." And while these cysts are typically harmless, people tend to seek removal due to their large appearance and/or when they become inflamed, like what happened to the patient in the video.

The clip, which already has 1.8 million views, features Lee cutting open the mass, slowly squeezing out the "pudding" as she so sweetly calls it, and then surgically extracting the remaining growth. The entire cyst-removal procedure takes about 38 minutes (if your stomach can handle it), but the good stuff is near the beginning of the video, within the first five minutes ("good stuff" being the likeness of what one would find in a stuffed-crust pizza).

Watch the whole 40-minute clip, below, but be warned: This shit is insane.
