"Our goal isn’t simply to remove unwanted lesions — it’s to restore your skin in the gentlest, most effective way possible."

- Dr Leah Totton, Medical Director, Dr Leah Clinics
 



Why remove a cyst?

  • Medically, removing a cyst can prevent recurrence, reduce infection risk, and alleviate discomfort.
  • Cosmetically, excising a cyst restores smooth texture and clear contours—without leaving a noticeable scar.

How do you get rid of a cyst?

Our experienced cosmetic doctors perform cyst removal in London using local anaesthetic for your comfort. The procedure includes:

  • Numbing the area around the cyst.

  • Carefully removing the entire cyst and its sac to prevent regrowth.

  • Closing the area with fine stitches to aid healing and minimise scarring.

The procedure typically takes under 30 minutes. Most patients return to daily life immediately, with minimal downtime.

CYST REMOVAL – FAQS

How will you remove my cyst?

The cyst removal process, whether it be sebaceous cyst removal or other lump removal is fairly simple.

Once we have examined your cyst / lump and determined that we can safely remove it, we will use local anaesthetic to numb the area and then surgically remove the cyst.

Does this procedure leave a scar?

Yes, you will have a small scar where the lump, bump or cyst used to be. However, we try to minimise scarring as much as possible, and your scar will generally look far less noticeable than the lump itself. At doctor Leah Clinic we offer a scar-review appointment 6 weeks after your cyst removal, any scar treatment required (e.g. laser treatment) is offered for half price at that appointment.

Is it safe to remove a cyst?

We will inspect your cyst / lump closely before attempting to remove it. We won’t perform a cyst / lump removal procedure if we don’t deem it safe to do so.

How much does it cost to remove a cyst in the UK?

The removal of a benign cyst in London costs between £500 and £700 depending on the size and location of the cyst. With any additional cyst or lump removal on the day costing an additional £350.

At Dr Leah Clinics, you’re in safe hands
