Cysts are encapsulated pockets of fluid, debris, or other sebaceous material that can often grow and become painful. As they enlarge, cysts tend to cause visible deformity making the patient self-conscious. If the material of the cyst is removed but the entire capsule is not, the cyst can regrow. When looking for a medical professional for this treatment, it is critical to select a fellowship-trained facial plastic surgeon, like Dr. Givens, who regularly performs cyst excision.
