Excision of skin or subcutaneous growths (during operation)
The procedure depends on the nature, size and location of the growth. It is most often performed under local anaesthesia. The procedure usually takes less than an hour and involves small incisions, which the surgeon closes with cosmetic stitches.
How to prepare for the procedure?
When you make an appointment, the doctor will tell you how to prepare for the procedure and answer all your questions. You will be asked about illnesses and allergies, medications taken and previous operations.
Recovery period after the procedure
After the procedure, you can usually go home straight away. The recovery period depends on the procedure and the size and localisation of the growth. Recovery is usually quick and without complications, with minimal or no pain. Our surgeon will tell you about the upcoming recovery process during your consultation. It is most often possible to return to your normal routine within a few days. Our surgeon will give you precise instructions on your individual recovery regimen and physical activity restrictions.
