Lumps and Bumps
The removal of skin lumps and bumps is a straightforward surgical procedure designed to address benign growths such as cysts, lipomas, skin tags, and other soft tissue irregularities. While often harmless, these lesions can become a cosmetic concern for many patients.
During your consultation, Dr. Viezel-Mathieu will assess the nature of the lump or bump and determine whether removal is appropriate. In some cases, imaging or a biopsy may be recommended to ensure an accurate diagnosis. Treatment options and surgical planning will be discussed based on the size, location, and characteristics of the lesion.
Details
Most procedures are performed under local anesthesia and can be completed in the clinic setting. The affected area is carefully excised with precision to minimize scarring and ensure a smooth result. Depending on the size and type of lesion, sutures may be placed and removed during a follow-up visit.
Recovery is generally quick, with most patients returning to normal activities within a few days. Aftercare instructions will be provided to promote proper healing and reduce the risk of recurrence.
Whether for comfort, aesthetics, or peace of mind, the removal of lumps and bumps is a safe, effective procedure with minimal downtime. Dr. Viezel-Mathieu offers expert evaluation and treatment with a focus on precision, discretion, and patient reassurance.
