Punch excision of a cyst on the armpit

This patient has an epidermoid cyst (aka a sebaceous cyst) on her right axilla/armpit. A little local anesthesia was placed before a punch biopsy tool was used to allow me to express the cyst contents and remove the entire sac.

This patient is the same person who had the brown bumps, aka dermatosis papulosa nigra, on her cheeks and neck, removed with laser treatment with the Iriderm laser.

Three milia extracted on the face

This lovely woman was the last patient of the day for me. She had three bumps on her face that she wanted removed if possible. Although, she didn’t know about my youtube channel or instagram, she is a “popaholic”, meaning, she loves to pop her own blackheads and whiteheads. Well, she couldn’t remove these areas, […]
