Cyst Removal Video – Treatment

In this Cyst removal video filmed at our Leeds clinic, Miss Stephanie Young carries out the surgical removal of an epidermoid cysts, which are collections of skin oils and sebum that can become problematic. The procedure begins with marking the incision area and administering local anaesthetic for comfort. An incision is made to excise the cyst, aiming to remove it in one piece, followed by cauterization to control bleeding. Dissolving stitches are used for healing, with a recovery period of one to two weeks, during which the patient is advised to avoid strenuous activities. The patient is also informed about the possibility of scarring.

In this video shows the process of removing a cyst with Mr Tom Collin at our Newcastle clinic. First, the area is marked, and a local anesthetic is injected to numb the region. Then, an incision is made over the cyst, and the tissue is deepened to reach the cyst wall. The cyst is carefully released and fully excised. Cautery is used to stop any bleeding, and simple sutures are applied to close the wound. The stitches will be removed in 5-7 days. Finally, a dressing is applied, and wound care instructions are given.

In this scalp cyst removal video filmed in our Newcastle clinic, Mr David Sainsbury carries out a surgical cyst removal procedure. Mr Sainsbury explains that this gentleman has been dealing with a non-cancerous scalp lesion for about a year, which appears to be a cyst. It has remained uninflamed and is primarily a cosmetic concern for him. The procedure to remove the cyst is straightforward, requiring local anesthetic and taking approximately twenty minutes. Absorbable sutures are used for closure, making the process relatively simple.
