What is a cyst?

Before seeking cyst removal, our Dermatologist will thoroughly examine your skin.This is to diagnose whether this is a cyst, and what the best treatment will be at our London cyst removal clinic.

A cyst is a lump located beneath the skin that is filled with fluid, usually similar in size and shape to a small pea, although they can gradually grow to a few centimetres across. Cysts usually develop as a result of an infection or due to a blocked gland. They can also occur around in-growing hairs and are often found in the scalp or underarm area. They are more common after puberty or if you have suffered with acne. Likely they are not contagious, but early cyst removal in is recommended to reduce the risk of infection and to minimise scarring.

Cysts can appear anywhere on the body but are most common on the:

Scalp Face Neck Chest Shoulder Genitals

What is cyst removal treatment?

When cysts appear on your face or body, it is important that you get them checked over by a professional for diagnosis. However, both body and facial cyst removal are considered cosmetic procedures, as cysts are not usually harmful. As it is not a medical procedure, in the UK, you will need to arrange a private cyst removal if you wish to do so. At our cyst removal clinic, you can be sure of the best treatment available. Here at EF MEDISPA, our professional dermatologists are experts in cyst removal procedures, well experienced in removing all types of cysts and use techniques that minimise scarring for the best results. We are also able to offer treatments to help reduce the likelihood of further cysts developing, which is particularly important after sebaceous cyst removal. We also offer Lipoma removal in London that results in minimal scarring as on occasion, the suspected cyst is a type of lipoma, which is a fatty lump that is usually found slightly deeper beneath the skin.

What is Dermastamp treatment?

The most common types of cysts

  1. Epidermoid cysts are usually caused by a build-up of keratin under the skin
  2. Sebaceous cysts form out of the sebaceous gland, which produces sebum
  3. Pilar cysts are those that are found on the scalp or around hair follicles
  4. Chalazion or meibomian cysts are those that form on the eyelids

Cyst removal treatment at EF Medispa

How does cyst removal treatment work?

Cysts are usually harmless. However, we always advise that they are reviewed by a doctor prior to removal. If a cyst grows larger, it can look unsightly or become uncomfortable under clothing. They can also become infected or even rupture, which may cause discomfort and pain. It is recommended to seek private cyst removal as early as possible in order to keep the scarring to a minimum.

During the removal process at our London cyst removal clinic, our skilled dermatologists will use a local anaesthetic to numb the area, before making a tiny cut and squeezing or carefully cutting out the cyst. This procedure may leave a small scar; however, the appearance of this will diminish over time.

If you are having a facial cyst removal in London we can discuss additional treatments to speed up the healing time of scars. Cysts can occasionally return. This is more common after pilar and sebaceous cyst removal in London.

Cyst Removal FAQs

How long will a cyst last?

A cyst will not heal until you get cyst removal. It must be lanced, drained, surgically excised. If you do not get treatment, cysts mat eventually rupture resulting in them partially draining. This can take months, or even years, and once they rupture, the painful sebaceous cyst will likely return if the pocket lining is not removed entirely.

How long a cyst removal take?

Although cysts do not usually pose any threat to your health, cyst removal is advisable. If cysts are left untreated, benign cysts can result in serious complications such as infection, where the cyst fills with bacteria and pus, becoming an abscess. If the cyst bursts inside the body, there is even a risk of septicaemia.

I'm completely thrilled with the result. I look, I think, subtly better and completely natural. Not years younger, but fresher, brighter and more cheerful. As promised, my jawline is tighter, my cheeks firmer, my brows more elegantly arched and even my thinning upper lip looks fuller and more upturned. Within a couple of weeks of living with my new face, it felt completely mine.

The fantastic team at the King’s Road clinic put my slight apprehension at immediate ease.

Twenty minutes later and pleasing results were already visible… I’m looking forward to seeing further improvements!

I’m absolutely thrilled by the 3D SkinLift. Having two children took its toll leaving loose skin on my stomach that I couldn’t get rid of. Even from my first session with 3DSkinLift I could see noticeable difference and now after a full course I’m feeling like my old self again.
