Last season, the show featured a lady with a lipoma on her shoulder, as well as a man who suffered with multiple cysts on his head.

But not only does the show reveal some of the most painful skin conditions, it also shines a light on the reality of living with such conditions, and how this can impact a patient's mental health.

"If that’s you, then we’d like to get some more information from you to see whether our dermatologists can help you."
