Removal of Benign Growths (Moles, Cysts, Lipoma) in Vancouver

What are Benign Growths?

Benign growths are non-cancerous lumps or lesions that form on or under the skin. While they are typically harmless, they may cause discomfort, interfere with daily activities, or affect your appearance. Common types include moles, cysts, and lipomas. 

Types of Benign Growths

Moles:

Moles are small pigmented spots or patches that can appear anywhere on the skin. While usually harmless, some moles may change in size, color, or texture, requiring removal for cosmetic or medical reasons.

Cysts:  

Cysts are fluid-filled sacs that develop under the skin. They can vary in size and may cause discomfort or become infected, making removal necessary.

Lipomas:

Lipomas are soft, fatty lumps that grow slowly beneath the skin. They are generally painless but may be removed if they become large, uncomfortable, or cosmetically undesirable. 

Causes of Benign Growths

Benign growths can develop due to various factors, including:

  • Genetic predisposition.
  • Sun exposure (moles).
  • Blocked glands or infection (cysts).
  • Overgrowth of fat cells (lipomas).

While typically harmless, it’s essential to monitor any changes and consult a specialist if needed. 

The Removal Procedure

Consultation and Preparation

During your consultation, our plastic surgeons will assess the growth, discuss your concerns, and determine the most suitable removal method based on its type, size, and location. 

Treatment Options

Surgical Excision

For larger or more complex growths, surgical excision is performed to remove the lesion and surrounding tissue if necessary. This technique ensures complete removal and minimal scarring.

Minimally Invasive Techniques

For smaller or less invasive growths, minimally invasive techniques, such as laser treatment or fine excision, may be used. These options typically result in quicker recovery times and minimal discomfort. 

Recovery and Aftercare

Recovery varies depending on the type of removal. Most patients experience mild swelling or redness, which subsides within a few days. Proper wound care and follow-up appointments ensure optimal healing and results.
