Sebaceous Cyst Excision for Safe Cyst Removal

Sebaceous cysts are slow-growing lumps under the skin that may become painful, inflamed, infected, or cosmetically concerning. At SkinSculpt, cyst excision is performed with a clinical approach focused on complete removal and better healing.

A Skin Lump That Keeps Growing or Coming Back?

Sebaceous cysts may appear on the face, scalp, neck, back, chest, or other areas. They may feel like a firm lump under the skin and can sometimes discharge foul-smelling material.
Squeezing or puncturing a cyst at home can cause infection, inflammation, scarring, and recurrence. Proper excision removes the cyst wall and reduces the chance of coming back.
