Sebaceous cyst – Laser treatment (20150) admin, March 15, 2023 Laser to remove benign skin tumors and sebaceous cysts. Sebaceous cysts often originate from inflammation of the hair follicles. They are bumps that move freely under the skin, grow slowly and do not cause pain. They frequently become infected and produce the following symptoms: reddening of the skin, pain, increased local temperature, drainage of a greyish-white, cheesy material. Unlike conventional treatment, which is generally surgical, Hoogstra Medical Center performs a novel laser treatment for sebaceous cysts, carbuncles and boils that consists of making a small hole in the most protruding part of the cyst. Thanks to the high impact speed of the Lotus II laser, it is not necessary to perform local anesthesia or place anesthetic creams. Once the hole is made, the cyst is drained, once the drainage is finished, the Lotus II Laser is programmed in long pulse mode, this produces contraction of the walls of the sac and its contraction. After this procedure, the patient can continue their daily life. This procedure is completely painless and does not leave any scars. Benefits: • Laser treatment • Excision without surgery. • Without anesthesia. • No scars. • Painless.
