After numbing the area, the doctor opens the cyst and presses out the cheesy keratin inside, which can sometimes be surprisingly large in amount.
Next, the sac is gently lifted out with fine forceps. When it comes out in one piece, the shoulder is finally free of the problem.
The wound left behind is usually small. With good care it closes quickly and leaves only a faint line on the skin.
Many patients say they wish they had done it years earlier, instead of living with the lump for so long.
Let go of what you no longer need and feel the difference. The videos below show cysts being removed from the shoulder and back.
