What is Cyst Removal?

Cyst removal involves the surgical extraction of fluid-filled sacs that may develop under the skin, caused by factors such as blockages, infections, or genetics. This procedure prevents the cyst from growing, becoming infected, or causing discomfort.

Benefits of Cyst Removal

Improved comfort: Relief from pain or discomfort caused by the cyst.
Enhanced appearance: Removal of unsightly cysts, especially on visible parts of the body.
Prevention of infection: Minimizes the risk of the cyst becoming infected or inflamed.
Reduced recurrence: Removing the entire cyst, including the sac, lowers the chances of it coming back.

Minimally invasive: Quick procedure with minimal scarring.
Quick recovery time: Most people resume normal activities within a few days.
Long-lasting results: Permanent removal of the cyst.

How Does Cyst Removal Work?

Cyst removal at Drypskin typically begins with a thorough consultation to assess the cyst's size, location, and type. The procedure is performed under local anesthesia to ensure comfort. A small incision is made over the cyst, and it is carefully removed in its entirety, including the sac to minimize the risk of recurrence. The wound is then cleaned and closed with sutures if necessary. The entire process usually takes about 30 minutes to an hour, depending on the cyst's complexity. After removal, the area is bandaged, and specific aftercare instructions are provided to promote healing and prevent infection.

Post-Procedure Care

After cyst removal, it’s important to keep the area clean and dry. Follow your specialist’s instructions regarding wound care, and avoid strenuous activities for a few days. Attend any scheduled follow-up appointments to ensure proper healing and to check for any signs of infection.

What types of cysts can be removed at Drypskin?

We remove various types of cysts, including sebaceous, epidermoid, and pilar cysts, from different parts of the body.

Is cyst removal painful?

The procedure is performed under local anesthesia, so you should not feel pain during the removal. Mild discomfort may be experienced afterward, which can be managed with over-the-counter pain relief.

How long does it take to recover from cyst removal?

Most patients experience a quick recovery, with the area healing within a few days to a week. Stitches, if used, may be removed after 7-10 days.

Will the cyst come back after removal?

By removing the entire cyst, including the sac, we minimize the chances of recurrence. However, there is a small chance it could return.

Are there any risks associated with cyst removal?

Cyst removal is generally safe, but like any procedure, it carries some risks, including infection, scarring, or recurrence. Following aftercare instructions reduces these risks.
