Epidermoid and pilar cysts look like small smooth lumps under the surface of your skin. They are generally benign (non-cancerous) and usually cause no harm or problems. If required, they can usually be removed easily by a small operation done under local anaesthetic.
Epidermoid cysts can affect anyone but are most common in young and middle-aged adults. They can appear anywhere on the skin but develop most commonly on the face, neck, chest, upper back and genitals, eg scrotum.
They are not usually harmful. If they do not bother you then it is best just to leave them alone. However, it is worth asking your doctor to check they are harmless. Sometimes a person with an epidermoid or pilar cyst requests that it be removed. This is usually for one of three reasons:
Cosmetic reasons. For example, the cyst is in an obvious site on the skin and looks unsightly
.
They are sometimes easy to catch and traumatise. This typically occurs on the scalp when combing hair.
If the cyst has become infected or irritating.
If required, the cyst can usually be easily removed by a simple operation, under local anaesthetic. The surrounding skin is numbed by injecting some local anaesthetic. A small cut (incision) is made over the cyst. Typically, the cyst can be easily pulled out. The wound is then stitched up. A small scar will result. Sometimes, after the removal of a cyst, it gradually regrows in the same site under the scar. This is unusual but, if it occurs, it can be removed again.
