What your skin
gains from this
Most cysts are resolved in a single procedure. Healing progresses over 3 to 7 days with proper aftercare.
Complete removal reduces recurrence
Excising the cyst along with its sac wall eliminates the root cause, significantly reducing the likelihood of it returning
Relieves pain, swelling, and discomfort
Removal of an inflamed or enlarged cyst provides immediate relief from the tenderness, pressure, and discomfort it causes
Improves skin appearance and contour
Eliminating the visible lump restores a smooth, natural skin surface, improving appearance in cosmetically sensitive areas
Quick and done under local anaesthesia
The procedure is performed comfortably under local anaesthesia in a clinical setting, with minimal disruption to your day
Definitive, long-term solution
Unlike draining alone, complete surgical excision provides a lasting resolution with a very low risk of recurrence
