Cysts on the scalp, also known as pilar cysts, can be bothersome and sometimes painful. These fluid-filled sacs often appear as small bumps beneath the skin and can gradually increase in size over time. While they are usually benign, they may cause discomfort or cosmetic concerns. Dermatologists specialize in diagnosing and treating various skin conditions, including cysts. Cyst excision, a common procedure performed by dermatologists, involves removing the cyst surgically. This procedure is typically straightforward and performed under local anesthesia. After excision, the dermatologist may recommend keeping the area clean and avoiding any strenuous activity to promote proper healing. If you notice a cyst on your scalp or anywhere else on your body, it’s essential to consult a dermatologist for proper evaluation and treatment to prevent any complications.
