Tony's confidence has taken a huge hit because of his nose. Even though he wants to be successful in life, he feels that his nose is something that is holding him back. After struggling for years with a nose that looks like it has two grapes hanging from it, Tony thought that no would be able to help him.

Even though there are people who see his potential, Tony feels that his nose is hindering his progress. Tony then chose to approach his last resort - Dr Sandra Lee. He decided to pay her a visit and see if something could be done about his nose. 

On the day of the consultation, Dr Lee was able to identify that Tony had Rhinophyma, a type of condition in which the nose grows in size. She also acknowledged that it looked like Tony had two small grapes hanging from his nose. She was able to identify how the growth was hindering his nostrils. 

Even though she knew that she would be able to treat it, she wanted Tony to know that there were chances that he would be left with scars that could not be covered. Tony knew that it was better to have scars rather than have the growth on his nose. He quickly gave his consent for the surgery and without wasting a second, Dr Lee prepped up to get started. 

She revealed that she would be burning the skin out to make it look even while using a spatula-shaped tool to cut the two growths on the side of his nose. She was easily able to remove the growth and provide Tony with a proper nose. She was able to see the real shape of his nose and understood how hard it must have been for Tony with the two growths on his nose. After eight weeks of recovery, Tony revealed that he felt a big change take place in his life after he got the surgery done. He felt happy and confident about having his life back to normal. 

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