Frequently asked questions

How long does lipoma or cyst surgery take?
The duration of the procedure varies depending on the size and location of the lesion, but most removals are outpatient and typically take between 30 minutes and an hour. I will inform you of the specific estimated time for your case during the evaluation.
What is the cost of removal, and are there financing options?
The cost is determined after the evaluation, as it depends on the complexity and type of anesthesia required. During the consultation, I will provide you with a detailed quote. Regarding financing, we can explore options or payment plans according to your needs.
What side effects or risks should I consider?
As with any surgical procedure, there are minimal risks such as bleeding, infection, or scarring. My goal is to minimize these risks with careful technique and rigorous follow-up. I will explain the potential effects in detail during our consultation.
What can I expect during my first consultation?
During the first consultation, I will perform a complete evaluation of your lesion, review your medical history, and answer all your questions. It's a space for you to share your concerns, and together we will define the best path forward.
Are there cases where surgery is not recommended?
Yes, in some cases, especially if the lesion is very small, asymptomatic, and poses no risk, surgery might not be the first option. I will carefully evaluate your situation and recommend what is most convenient for your health.
Are there alternatives to surgery for treating lipomas or cysts?
For benign lipomas and cysts, surgical removal is the most common and effective method. Some very small lesions may only require observation, but this is something we should discuss during your individual evaluation.
