What is an Epidermoid Cyst? What Caused It?

An epidermoid cyst shows up as a tiny benign lump under the skin containing keratin—a soft yellow protein. You’ll often spot these cysts on the face, neck back, or chest. They might look like sebaceous cysts, but they come from different sources. While these cysts don’t usually cause trouble, they can get sore, swollen, or infected. This pushes many people to have their epidermoid cysts taken out, both to look better and to avoid health problems.

You might ask, “What leads to epidermoid cysts?” They pop up when skin cells grow inward instead of falling off . Some things that can set them off include:

Clogged hair follicles

Skin damage or irritation

Family history or hormone issues

Skin prone to acne or excess oil

Aftercare Matters: What to Do After Your Epidermoid Cyst Removal

Successful epidermoid cyst treatment doesn’t stop when you leave the clinic—good aftercare plays a crucial role to help you heal and avoid infections or the cyst coming back. At Sky Skin and Laser Clinic, we’ll walk you through each step after your treatment to help you recover without scars.

Keep the Area Clean & Dry:

Clean the treated spot with mild soap and water. Don't scrub hard or touch it with dirty hands.

Apply Prescribed Ointments:

Use any topical antibiotics or healing creams your skin doctor told you to. This helps to prevent infection.

Avoid Sun Exposure:

Bright sun can make healing skin darker. Put on sunscreen or cover the area to stop color changes.

Don't Scratch or Pick:

Itching is normal as the wound heals. Try not to scratch so you don't scar or open the wound again.

Watch for Unusual Symptoms:

Slight redness and swelling are typical. But if you see pus more pain, or a fever, call your doctor right away.

Cut Back on Physical Activity (If Needed):

If the doctor took out the cyst from a spot that moves a lot (like your back or legs), stay away from hard workouts for a couple of days.

Go to Check-ups as Told:

Show up to any check-ups the doctor set up to make sure the spot is getting better and the cyst hasn't come back.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is an epidermoid cyst and how do I know if I have one?

An epidermoid cyst forms a bump under your skin that grows slowly and doesn’t cause cancer. You’ll often find these cysts on your face, neck, back, or chest. They typically contain keratin. If you see a lump shaped like a dome that doesn’t hurt but sometimes turns red or swells up, you might have an epidermoid cyst. To help you understand better, we can show you epidermoid cyst pictures when you come in for a check-up.

2. Is an epidermoid cyst dangerous?

In most cases, epidermoid cysts pose no danger. Yet, they can become swollen, infected, or cause discomfort if left untreated. Though harmless, some individuals choose to remove them to prevent complications or improve appearance.

3. What causes epidermoid cysts to form?

Epidermoid cysts influence skin cells, pushing them deeper into the skin instead of shedding as they should. This can stem from clogged hair follicles, acne, skin injuries, or even genetic factors. Hormone shifts might also play a role in their growth.

4. How to cure an epidermoid cyst?

Minor surgery offers the best chance to get rid of an epidermoid cyst for good. Doctors remove the whole cyst sac to stop it from coming back. At Sky Skin and Laser Clinic, we use new methods that leave smaller scars. This makes the removal safe and quick.

5. What is the difference between an epidermoid cyst vs sebaceous cyst?

Both are harmless lumps, but they come from different places. Epidermoid cysts start in skin surface cells and have keratin inside. Sebaceous cysts begin in oil glands and contain oily sebum. To get the right treatment, you need a skin doctor to figure out which type you have.

6. What is the cost of sebaceous cyst removal in Chennai?

The price to remove a sebaceous cyst in Chennai changes depending on its size where it’s located, and how complex the procedure is. At Sky Skin and Laser Clinic, we provide clear, budget-friendly pricing without any surprise fees. Get in touch with us to get an accurate quote based on your specific case.

7. What is the recovery time after epidermoid cyst removal?

Most people get better within a few days to a week. We suggest you avoid tough physical activities, keep the area clean, and stick to all the care instructions we give you after treatment to heal as well as possible.

8. Can an epidermoid cyst come back after removal?

An epidermoid cyst might return if the doctor doesn’t take out the whole cyst sac. This is why our skilled team makes sure to remove the entire epidermoid cyst. We use careful methods to lower the chances of the cyst coming back.
