Ep 2. Never Been Cyst

Save My Skin is a reality television series that follows dermatologist Dr. Emma Craythorne as she treats patients with severe skin conditions, ranging from rare diseases to disfiguring cysts and scars. In season 2 episode 2, titled Never Been Cyst, Dr. Emma takes on some of her most challenging cases yet.

The episode kicks off with Dr. Emma meeting 25-year-old Precious, who has been dealing with a painful cyst on her scalp for over a year. The cyst is so large that it has caused Precious to lose some hair and has also made it difficult for her to sleep. Dr. Emma examines the cyst and decides to remove it once and for all. The surgery is successful, and Precious is finally able to breathe a sigh of relief.

Next up, Dr. Emma meets 27-year-old Cam, who has been struggling with acne since her teenage years. The acne has left scars on Cam's face and has taken a toll on her mental health. Dr. Emma prescribes a combination of laser treatment and chemical peels to help improve the texture and appearance of Cam's skin. The treatments are painful, but Cam perseveres, and the results are impressive.

Dr. Emma's third case is 47-year-old Michael, who has been living with a rare skin condition called Lichen Planopilaris for over a decade. The condition causes scarring, hair loss, and intense itching. Michael has tried countless treatments, but nothing has worked. Dr. Emma decides to try a new treatment called platelet-rich plasma therapy, which involves injecting Michael's own blood platelets into his scalp to stimulate hair growth. The treatment is experimental, but Dr. Emma is hopeful that it will work. Michael is ecstatic with the results, and the therapy seems to be reversing the damage caused by his condition.

Finally, Dr. Emma meets 34-year-old Donna, who has been struggling with a severe case of psoriasis for over 20 years. Donna's skin is covered in painful, itchy patches, and she's become self-conscious about how she looks. Dr. Emma prescribes a new medication that targets the immune system and is known to be effective in treating psoriasis. Donna is hesitant at first, but she decides to give it a try. The medication works wonders, and Donna's skin starts to clear up within weeks.
