What Are Cysts?
Cysts are common, non-cancerous lumps that can develop under the skin due to blocked glands, infections, or trapped skin cells. They often appear as round, fluid-filled or semi-solid bumps and can occur anywhere on the body. While most cysts are harmless, some may become painful, infected, or cosmetically bothersome, requiring professional removal.
How Are Cysts Removed?
Precise Incision
A small, carefully placed incision is made over the cyst to access the sac. The size of the incision depends on the size and location of the cyst. Our expert dermatology doctor ensures precision cutting for minimal scarring.
Remove the Cyst
The cyst is then gently removed in its entirety, including the sac, to prevent recurrence. If the cyst has ruptured or become infected, thorough cleaning of the area is performed to ensure proper healing..
Stitch
Once the cyst is fully removed, the incision is stitched closed using fine sutures to promote healing and reduce scarring. In many cases, dissolvable stitches are used for added convenience.
Types Of Cysts
Most cysts are benign (non-cancerous), but if they become large, painful, or infected, they may need to be professionally removed.
Epidermoid Cysts
Small, slow-growing, and filled with keratin (skin protein).
Sebaceous Cysts
Form from blocked oil glands, often found on the face, neck, or scalp.
Pilar Cysts
Develop on the scalp and are usually hereditary.
