Frequently Asked Questions

You’ll find answers to the most frequently asked questions below. Everything you need to know is right here, designed to help you make an informed and confident decision.

Should I have a cyst removed?

Cysts are often harmless and can be left alone. Removal is worth considering if a cyst is uncomfortable, recurrent or becoming inflamed.

Is the procedure painful?

Removal is done under local anaesthetic, so the area is numb. You may feel pressure but not sharp pain.

Can a cyst come back?

Complete removal reduces the chance of recurrence. We explain what to expect for your particular cyst.

What if the cyst is inflamed or infected?

An actively inflamed or infected cyst needs to settle first. We advise on the best timing for removal.
