Cysts and benign skin growths are common and may become irritated, painful, or cosmetically concerning. Removal is a simple in-office procedure that can improve comfort, prevent infection, and restore smooth skin appearance.
Dr. Amin Esfahani, MD, Board-Certified Dermatologist, and the team at Central Valley Skin Specialists provide safe and precise removal of cysts and skin growths for patients throughout the Central Valley.
Treatment Options
Cyst Excision Cyst removal involves carefully excising the entire cyst wall to reduce the risk of recurrence and promote proper healing.
Incision & Drainage For inflamed or infected cysts, drainage may be performed to relieve pressure and reduce discomfort before complete removal if needed later.
Benign Growth Removal Non-cancerous growths such as lipomas or dermal nodules can be removed using minor surgical techniques based on size and location.
Suturing & Cosmetic Closure After removal, careful closure techniques are used to minimize scarring and support optimal cosmetic healing.
Pathology Evaluation (If Needed) Removed tissue may be sent for laboratory analysis to confirm diagnosis and rule out abnormal changes.
