Cyst Excision
Complete surgical removal of a cyst along with its lining (capsule) — definitive treatment that prevents recurrence and is suitable for sebaceous, epidermoid, dermoid, and ganglion cysts.
What is Cyst Excision?
Cyst Excision is the definitive surgical treatment for various skin and soft-tissue cysts — including sebaceous, epidermoid, dermoid and ganglion cysts. The entire cyst is removed along with its lining (capsule), which is essential to prevent recurrence. The procedure is typically performed under local anaesthesia as a day-care procedure with minimal downtime. As a sensitive female surgeon in Hyderabad, Dr. Tejasree Vengala performs cyst excision at Lux Hospitals, Hyderabad, with careful technique, well-placed incisions and excellent cosmetic outcomes — including for cysts in private or sensitive locations.
How the Procedure Works
Local Anaesthesia & Marking
The cyst is marked, and local anaesthesia is given around and beneath the cyst.
Skin Incision
A small incision is made over the cyst, planned along natural skin lines for the best cosmetic outcome.
Cyst Dissection
The cyst is carefully dissected from surrounding tissues, with attention to keeping the capsule intact.
Complete Removal with Capsule
The entire cyst is removed along with its full lining to prevent recurrence.
Closure & Discharge
Deep tissues are closed with absorbable sutures, skin with fine sutures or skin glue. Patients return home the same day.
Outcomes
Who Needs This Treatment?
- →Complete and definitive removal of the cyst
- →Specimen sent for biopsy to confirm diagnosis
- →Very low recurrence when capsule is fully removed
- →Performed comfortably under local anaesthesia
- →Same-day discharge with quick return to routine
- →Sensitive, dignified care — especially for cysts in private areas
A cyst removed with its capsule intact is a cyst that does not come back. Especially for cysts in private or sensitive areas, gentle technique, a discreet conversation, and a clean result matter just as much as the surgery itself.
