Overview
Cysts are closed pockets of tissue that can be filled with fluid, pus, or other material. They can develop anywhere on the skin and may become swollen, painful, or infected. Dr. Carol Ng offers surgical removal of cysts to provide relief and prevent recurrence. Unlike draining a cyst, which often leads to it filling back up, surgical excision removes the entire cyst sac, ensuring a permanent solution. This procedure is performed under local anesthesia in our comfortable clinic setting.
