How long does the cyst removal procedure take?
It depends on the size and location of the cyst and how long the cyst removal procedure will take. However, most procedures are completed within 30 to 60 minutes.
Does cyst removal carry any risks?
Like any surgical procedure, cyst removal carries some risks, including infection, bleeding, and scarring. However, these risks are discussed thoroughly and transparently with you with proper informed consent prior to Dr. Nguyen at Premier Derm Center performing the procedure.
How should I care for the incision site after cyst removal?
After cyst removal, it is important to keep the incision site clean and dry. Follow Dr. Khanh “Connie” Nguyen’s instructions for wound care, which may include changing bandages and applying an antibiotic ointment. During the healing process, avoid strenuous activities.
Will there be a scar after cyst removal?
Like all surgeries, there is always risk of scars, Dr. Khanh “Connie” Nguyen uses precise surgical techniques to minimize scarring. The size and visibility of the scar can depend on the Cyst’s size and location, as well as individual healing factors.
Can cysts come back after being removed?
Once a cyst is surgically removed, it is unlikely to return if the entire cyst sac is removed. However, new cysts can develop in other areas. Regular check-ups with Dr. Khanh “Connie” Nguyen at Premier Derm Center can help monitor your skin health and address any new concerns promptly.
