Kevin Olaeta had been struggling to be confident about himself ever since a lump started growing on his jaw.  He first realized he had the growth about six years ago but at that time, the size of the lump was about his thumb. However, as time passed, it started growing in size.

He revealed that it did not give him pain but now that it was growing in size, it had started to hit against his teeth. There have been times when Kevin has used his cap or hair to cover the lump because he did not want people to have a look at it.

However, to make things worse, the bump created a problem for him while he is working. Kevin works with his dad, who is an electrician and has a company of his own. He hopes to take over the company one day but finds it hard to interact with people when he is working as their focus shifts to his lump.

Kevin further revealed that his jawbreaker is a dealbreaker for him because it has stopped him from socializing or even going out on dates. 

He hopes to get his confidence back once the lump is out. To make this happen, Kevin decides to visit Dr Sandra Lee. He was unsure if she would be able to help but he wanted to stay positive.

After going for his consultation, Dr Lee realized that the lump was just a big cyst. However, she wanted to cut it open to be sure. 

Since it was an area on the face, she wanted to be careful about the nerves that were present. Once Dr. Lee cut the lump, she was sure that it was cyst as yellow fluid started pouring out of it.

She assured Kevin that she was ready to remove his jawbreaker and turn Kevin into a heartbreaker. 

Kevin was pleased to hear this. Once Dr Lee was done with the surgery, she showed Kevin the end result and he was pleased to see the change. 

Unfortunately, Kevin passed away on May 18, 2019. He had passed away unexpectedly in his sleep. 

'Dr. Pimple Popper' airs on Thursdays at 9 pm ET on TLC.
