Who is Jeff on 'Dr Pimple Popper' Season 9?
Jeff identified himself as the "Hunchback of Palm Beach County." He describes his lump as "very tight" when he attempts to feel it.
Since the first time he spotted it, the lump has grown from the size of a gumball to the size of a tennis ball, and when he reached Dr Lee, it was the size of a grapefruit.
Jeff owns a deck-building firm. That is his main source of income. The lump has grown in size, and he is always in agony while working.
The discomfort is caused by every movement that needs Jeff to glance left or right.
What happened to Jeff on 'Dr Pimple Popper' Season 9?
Dr Lee, MD, battles a lipoma trapped in some bothersome blood vessels in the new TLC episode. This removal may be difficult for most people, but Dr Pimple Popper is up to the task.
Dr Lee makes an incision to access the lipoma, squeezing and using surgical tweezers to pop out the giant lump in the August 16 episode.
It's time to cut the growth away from internal structures once it's been popped out of its habitat. Dr Lee must be extremely cautious when doing this procedure, informing the patient that multiple blood veins are "standing guard" above the lipoma.
A lipoma is a noncancerous fatty growth that forms between the skin and muscle. The jiggly mass is typically yellow, orange, or pink. Because of their unusual look, fans frequently compare lipomas to Jell-O or raw chicken.

Dr Lee was cautious to snip away the leftover portions of the mass completely after removing the majority of the lump, so the lipoma would not grow again.
Dr Lee patched up the patient and sent her home after she was finished.
Jeff appeared to be doing well during his update, albeit there appeared to be a little bulge post-surgery.
