Removing sebaceous, pilar, and epidermoid cysts under local anaesthetic

What it includes

  • A safe and effective way to remove cysts of all sizes from the scalp, back, or anywhere else on the body.

  • A short procedure that is usually without complications.

Benefits of cyst removal with Wells

  1. Relief from Discomfort - Cysts can cause discomfort or pain, especially if they are large, or in sensitive areas. Removing them can provide relief from this discomfort.
  2. Prevention of Infection - Cysts can become infected, leading to inflammation and potential complications. Removing the cysts reduces the risk of infection.
  3. Improved Mobility - Cysts in areas like joints or under the skin can limit mobility. Removing them can restore normal movement.
  4. Cosmetic Enhancement - Cysts can be unsightly, especially those on visible areas. Removing them can improve appearance and boost self-confidence.
  5. Diagnosis and Treatment - In some cases, a cyst may need to be removed for further examination to rule out other medical conditions or to provide appropriate treatment.
  6. Prevention of Rupture - Some cysts can rupture, causing pain and potential complications. Removing them prevents such occurrences.
  7. Elimination of Recurring Cysts - Removing cysts completely can prevent them from recurring or growing larger.
  • Face-to-face consultation: Book a consultation with our skilled surgeons at the Wells private clinic to review your mole and discuss treatment options.
