Benign Tumors Surgery
Harmless growths removed with a cosmetic result in mind.
Lipomas, neurofibromas, pilomatricomas, syringomas and a range of other benign tumours are entirely harmless, but they can be uncomfortable, catch on clothing, enlarge or simply be unwanted.

Diagnosed first, treated second.
Removal is planned as carefully as cancer surgery, because the only reason to operate on something benign is to leave a better result than the lesion itself. Every specimen goes to histology for confirmation.
- 01Elliptical & minimal-incision excision
- 02Layered cosmetic closure
- 03Ultrasound assessment
- 04Histopathology
- 05Scar-optimisation aftercare

How the treatment works
A sequence, not a single appointment — each step informs the next.
- 01
Diagnosis
Clinical examination, dermatoscopy and ultrasound where depth needs defining.
- 02
Incision planning
The incision is placed in a natural crease or within a hair-bearing area.
- 03
Excision
The lesion is removed whole under local anaesthesia, with layered closure.
- 04
Confirmation
Histology confirms the benign diagnosis and completeness of removal.
Results measured, not promised.

Frequently asked
Not medically, unless symptomatic, growing or uncertain — but removal is straightforward.
Only the anaesthetic injection is felt; the procedure itself is comfortable.
Rarely, when removed whole with its capsule.
Light activity within days; strenuous exercise after two weeks to protect the closure.
