Yes. To ensure the cyst doesn't rupture, you should have it removed by a dermatologist. This straightforward outpatient surgery permanently resolves the issue. When removing the cyst, a dermatologist carefully identifies and numbs the area surrounding the lump. The physician injects a local anesthetic to ensure you remain comfortable during the procedure. The dermatologist then removes the pocket of skin cells and sutures the skin inside and outside. The result is a small, smooth scar.
