چکیده

Cyst qualities dictate technique There are 3 main techniques for the removal of sebaceous cysts: traditional wide excision, minimal excision, and punch biopsy excision. For large cysts that have never become inflamed or ruptured, i favor the minimal excision technique because it’s likely that i’ll be able to remove the entire capsule with minimal scarring and faster healing times. also, for cysts on the face, this method produces a better cosmetic result because of the significantly smaller scar. However, for a cyst that has ruptured internally, has been expressed manually in the past, or recurs following minimal excision, i find traditional wide excision to be best. in these scenarios, it is extremely time-consuming and often impossible to remove the entire capsule using the minimal excision technique.
