Preparing for cyst excision is simple. We’ll provide clear instructions before your appointment, including any recommendations on medications, skin care, and products. Most patients can continue their normal routine, and there’s no need for extensive preparation.
Cyst excision, or cyst removal, is a precise, medical-grade procedure that safely removes cysts in their entirety, not just the surface. By targeting the root of the cyst, this treatment helps reduce the chance of recurrence while promoting clean healing and improved skin appearance. Performed in a comfortable, in-clinic setting, cyst excision is ideal for cysts that are painful, inflamed, or persistent, offering a reliable, long-term solution with minimal downtime and professional care you can trust.

Your treatment is performed by trained professionals using meticulous techniques designed to protect surrounding skin. This careful approach helps reduce scarring while delivering safe, reliable results you can feel confident about.
What is Cyst Excision?
Cyst excision is a medical procedure that completely removes a cyst, including its sac, to prevent it from returning. Unlike simple drainage or popping, excision addresses the root of the problem, ensuring the cyst is fully eliminated. It is commonly performed on cysts that are painful, inflamed, or cosmetically bothersome, and is done in a safe, sterile, in-clinic environment.
During the procedure, our skilled team carefully removes the cyst while preserving the surrounding skin and tissue. This precise approach promotes proper healing, reduces the risk of infection, and minimizes scarring. With our professional aftercare guidance, most patients experience a smooth recovery and long-lasting results, restoring both comfort and confidence in their skin.
Who is an ideal candidate?
Cyst excision is ideal for anyone dealing with a persistent, painful, or inflamed cyst, or for those who simply want to improve the appearance of their skin. It’s also a great option for people who have cysts that keep returning after other treatments. Our team evaluates each case individually to ensure the procedure is safe and effective for your specific needs.
How do I prepare?
Is there any downtime?
Downtime is minimal for most patients. You may experience mild redness, swelling, or tenderness for a few days, but most people return to their usual activities quickly. Our team provides clear aftercare instructions to support healing and reduce the risk of complications.
How does it feel?
During the procedure, your comfort is our priority. Local anesthesia is applied to numb the area, so you’ll feel little to no pain. Some pressure or mild tugging may be felt, but the process is quick, precise, and designed to keep you as comfortable as possible.
How long does a treatment take?
Cyst excision is a relatively quick procedure, usually taking between 20 to 45 minutes depending on the size and location of the cyst. After removal, a short recovery period in the clinic allows our team to ensure the area is properly cared for before you leave.
When will I notice results?
Results are immediate in the sense that the cyst is gone, but complete healing takes some time. Most patients notice improved skin texture and reduced discomfort within days, with full recovery and optimal results appearing over the next few weeks as the area heals completely.
