Lipomas and cysts are common, benign growths that develop beneath the skin and can vary in size, shape, and location. While they are typically harmless, many individuals choose to have them removed for cosmetic reasons, discomfort, or concerns about changes in appearance. At Rejuvenation Dermatology, we offer safe, effective, and minimally invasive removal procedures tailored to your specific needs.
A lipoma is a soft, fatty lump that grows slowly under the skin, often found on the shoulders, back, arms, or thighs. A cyst is a sac-like pocket of tissue filled with fluid, pus, or other material, and may become inflamed or infected if left untreated.
During your consultation, our experienced dermatology team will assess the growth, confirm the diagnosis, and recommend the most appropriate removal method. Procedures are performed under local anesthesia in our medical clinic, ensuring a comfortable experience with minimal downtime. Post-removal care and scar management options are also provided to support optimal healing.
Whether you're seeking relief from discomfort or peace of mind, Rejuvenation Dermatology delivers expert care and results-focused treatment for lipoma and cyst removal in a professional, supportive environment.
Lipoma and cyst removal is a minor surgical procedure performed to eliminate benign growths that develop beneath the skin. A lipoma is a soft, slow-growing mass of fatty tissue that typically appears on areas like the shoulders, back, arms, or thighs. Though painless and non-cancerous, lipomas can become uncomfortable or affect appearance, prompting removal. A cyst, on the other hand, is a sac-like pocket filled with fluid, pus, or other material that may develop due to blocked glands, infection, or inflammation. Cysts can become swollen, painful, or infected, making removal necessary for relief and prevention of recurrence.
At Rejuvenation Dermatology, lipoma and cyst removals are performed in a clean, clinical setting under local anesthesia. The procedure involves a small incision to extract the growth, followed by careful closure of the skin to minimize scarring. The entire process is typically quick, low-risk, and requires minimal downtime.
This procedure not only addresses physical discomfort but also restores confidence by improving skin appearance. Our dermatology team provides comprehensive aftercare instructions to support healing and ensure optimal results, with a focus on patient comfort and safety throughout the process.
