Usually we use a technique known as micro excision \/ short scar technique that involves removing the cyst contents first and then the wall or sac that surrounds it so that the cyst does not recur. A cautery laser is then used to stop any bleeding. The resulting wound will normally require stitches. These can be either dissolvable or non-dissolvable depending on the site of removal.<\/p>\n<p>Your cyst removal doctor or surgeon will advise which method of mole removal is most appropriate for you.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n<section class='av_toggle_section av-1efi8n-04f443c20b761f1d47fdf9e0f1debdbf'  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div role=\"tablist\" class=\"single_toggle\" data-tags=\"{All} \"  ><p data-fake-id='#toggle-id-2' class='toggler   av-inherit-font-color hasCustomColor'  itemprop=\"headline\"  role='tab' tabindex='0' aria-controls='toggle-id-2'>Will I have a scar?<span class=\"toggle_icon\"><span class=\"vert_icon\"><\/span><span class=\"hor_icon\"><\/span><\/span><\/p><div id='toggle-id-2' class='toggle_wrap  '  ><div class='toggle_content invers-color av-inherit-font-color hasCustomColor'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>Yes, it is not possible to remove a cyst without leaving some form of scar. Scars do fade with time but it is realistic to say there is always a trace. However, our special techniques and combination of surgery and laser are designed to leave a small and neat scar which will heal well, making it far less noticeable than the original cyst for most people.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n<section class='av_toggle_section av-1bjjyf-5d10cd6770735972d5dd7c48187781ac'  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div role=\"tablist\" class=\"single_toggle\" data-tags=\"{All} \"  ><p data-fake-id='#toggle-id-3' class='toggler   av-inherit-font-color hasCustomColor'  itemprop=\"headline\"  role='tab' tabindex='0' aria-controls='toggle-id-3'>What are the risks?<span class=\"toggle_icon\"><span class=\"vert_icon\"><\/span><span class=\"hor_icon\"><\/span><\/span><\/p><div id='toggle-id-3' class='toggle_wrap  '  ><div class='toggle_content invers-color av-inherit-font-color hasCustomColor'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>The risks associated with cyst removal are very low and it is a safe and simple procedure which we carry out in well-equipped facilities.<\/p>\n<p>The risk of infection is low due to our attention to hygiene and sterility. With any surgical procedure however there are still potential side-effects such as infection, bleeding and scarring, which are discussed fully at your appointment so that you can make a fully-informed decision. Rarely, some people with very dark or light skin have an abnormal response to healing and end up with larger scars than usual (hypertrophic or keloid scars).<\/p>\n<p>The doctors at our clinics are experts in dermatological surgery who ensure the highest standards of care.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n<section class='av_toggle_section av-12mjmn-b70327ced6c5be8d400086b50a84101f'  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div role=\"tablist\" class=\"single_toggle\" data-tags=\"{All} \"  ><p data-fake-id='#toggle-id-4' class='toggler   av-inherit-font-color hasCustomColor'  itemprop=\"headline\"  role='tab' tabindex='0' aria-controls='toggle-id-4'>What happens after surgery?<span class=\"toggle_icon\"><span class=\"vert_icon\"><\/span><span class=\"hor_icon\"><\/span><\/span><\/p><div id='toggle-id-4' class='toggle_wrap  '  ><div class='toggle_content invers-color av-inherit-font-color hasCustomColor'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>Mole or cyst removal is relatively simple and in most cases you can return to normal activities the same day.<\/p>\n<p>For micro excisions we normally advise the following aftercare:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Keep the wound dry for 2 days<\/li>\n<li>Dressings can be left for up to a week<\/li>\n<li>You will be informed as to whether your stitches are dissolvable or need to be removed<\/li>\n<li>Over 1 to 2 weeks, in areas where the skin is under tension such as the back and legs, it is advisable to reduce exercises which would possibly stretch the wound<\/li>\n<li>Steri-strips can be applied over the wound for up to 3 weeks to help the wound heal<\/li>\n<li>After 3 weeks the wound can be massaged with oils or moisturising creams<\/li>\n<li>If there is any increasing pain or redness consult your doctor as it could be a sign of infection.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n<section class='av_toggle_section av-ze16n-86c9920bb0641fdf58712ef56ae99b82'  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div role=\"tablist\" class=\"single_toggle\" data-tags=\"{All} \"  ><p data-fake-id='#toggle-id-5' class='toggler   av-inherit-font-color hasCustomColor'  itemprop=\"headline\"  role='tab' tabindex='0' aria-controls='toggle-id-5'>What aftercare is provided?<span class=\"toggle_icon\"><span class=\"vert_icon\"><\/span><span class=\"hor_icon\"><\/span><\/span><\/p><div id='toggle-id-5' class='toggle_wrap  '  ><div class='toggle_content invers-color av-inherit-font-color hasCustomColor'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>We don&#8217;t normally need to see a patient again after surgery as the wounds heal very quickly.<\/p>\n<p>If we decided to send any moles for testing we will write to you in 1-2 weeks to inform you of the result.
