Lipomas Removal

 A lipomas is a common benign tumor made up of mature fat cells that form a soft, rubbery lump beneath the skin. They are usually painless, slow-growing, and can occur anywhere on the body. While lipomas are generally harmless and do not require removal, some people opt for removal due to cosmetic reasons, discomfort, or if the lipoma interferes with movement or becomes infected.

Lipoma removal is a straightforward outpatient procedure performed by a dermatologist or surgeon. Local anesthesia is administered to numb the area, and a small incision is made over the lipoma. The surgeon then carefully excises the lipoma from surrounding tissues. In some cases, liposuction may be used to remove the fatty tissue. The incision is closed with stitches, adhesive strips, or left to heal naturally. Lipoma removal is typically safe, and most patients experience minimal scarring and a quick recovery. However, it's essential to consult a dermatologist for proper evaluation, diagnosis, and personalized treatment plan.

 A cyst is a closed sac-like structure that can develop within or on the body, containing fluid, semi-solid material, or gas. While most cysts are benign and don't require removal, some may cause discomfort, become infected, or affect surrounding tissues, necessitating removal.

Cyst removal is a relatively simple outpatient procedure performed by a dermatologist or surgeon. The process begins with the administration of local or general anesthesia, depending on the cyst's size and location. For draining a cyst, the doctor makes a small incision, expresses the contents, and may place a drain to facilitate complete drainage. For excision, the surgeon removes the entire cyst, including its capsule, through an incision, and the wound is closed with sutures or other closure methods.

While cyst removal is generally safe, potential risks and complications should be discussed with the our dermatologist before the procedure.
