Mole / Wart / Cyst / Lipoma Surgery
What is Mole, Wart, Cyst, and Lipoma Surgery?
Mole, Wart, Cyst, and Lipoma Surgeries are minor surgical procedures aimed at removing these growths for medical or cosmetic reasons.
- Mole Removal Surgery: Moles are skin growths that may be removed if they are bothersome, suspicious, or pose a risk of developing into skin cancer. Removal is typically done through excision or laser treatment.
- Wart Removal Surgery: Warts, caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV), are non-cancerous growths. They can be removed through excision, cryotherapy (freezing), or electrosurgery.
- Cyst Removal Surgery: Cysts are fluid-filled sacs that form under the skin, often due to blocked glands or infections. Surgical removal involves draining or excising the cyst to prevent recurrence.
- Lipoma Removal Surgery: Lipomas are soft, fatty tumors that grow beneath the skin. They are usually benign and can be removed surgically if they cause discomfort or for aesthetic reasons.
The Procedure
Mole, Wart, Cyst, and Lipoma Surgery is a procedure designed to remove unwanted growths, improving the appearance and comfort of the skin. These procedures use specialized techniques to excise or treat the growths effectively, restoring confidence and skin functionality. It typically involves the following steps:
- Surgical Techniques:
- Mole Removal: Excision with a scalpel or laser is performed to remove the mole, followed by sutures if necessary.
- Wart Removal: Techniques like excision, cryotherapy (freezing), or electrosurgery (burning) are used to eliminate the wart.
