Cyst, Lipoma & Ganglion Excision✦ in Pune
(Day-Care Intact Capsule Removal, Minimal-Incision Lipoma Extraction & Stalk Resection)
Capsule Enucleation, Minimal-Incision Lipoma Extraction & Wrist Ganglion Stalk Excision
Benign subcutaneous lumps such as sebaceous (epidermoid) cysts, lipomas, wrist ganglions, and viral warts are extremely common. While non-cancerous, they cause physical discomfort, nerve compression, cosmetic distress, and risk painful secondary infections. Standard surgical excision often leaves conspicuous, uneven railroad-track scars, or results in recurrence because cyst sac remnants or ganglion stalks are left behind. Dr. Chintan Gujarathi applies plastic surgery principles to outpatient lesion removal: micro-incisions strategically concealed within natural skin crease lines (Langer’s lines), meticulous microscopic enucleation of the entire intact capsule or joint stalk, and multi-layered tension-free subcuticular suturing for an imperceptible cosmetic outcome.
Operated by Dr. Chintan Gujarathi (MCh Plastic Surgery, Tata Memorial Hospital Fellow) at accredited tertiary centers (Ruby Hall Clinic, Sassoon Rd & Manipal Hospital Kharadi), utilizing sub-millimeter precision, concealed micro-incisions, and advanced tissue-handling for natural, permanent outcomes.

Your Healing Journey & Care Guide✦
A straightforward clinical guide to what to expect and how to care for your results.
Immediate Discharge & Normal Routine
Walk home immediately after the 20-30 minute procedure. Anesthesia wears off gently over 2 hours with minimal discomfort.
The transparent waterproof dressing allows you to shower freely without wetting the incision site.
Dressing Removal & Histopathology Confirmation
Incision site is cleanly sealed and dry. Follow-up visit at Ruby Hall Clinic or Manipal Hospital Kharadi.
Routine biopsy review provides 100% peace of mind that the excised lesion was completely benign and cleared.
Active Living & Silicone Scar Care
Full resumption of exercise, sports, and gym routines. The incision is a faint pink hairline mark.
Silicone gel hydration flattens collagen fibers and accelerates fading of the tiny mark.
Permanent Clearance & Invisible Scar
The fine scar fades to match natural skin pigment. The treated area feels completely smooth with zero recurrence.
Because the entire sac was excised intact, recurrence is virtually eliminated for life.
Recommended Best Practices (Do's)
- Keep the surgical waterproof dressing clean, intact, and dry for the initial 5 days.
- You may shower comfortably while keeping the waterproof dressing in place.
- Apply prescribed topical antibiotic ointment or silicone gel once the dressing is removed.
- Follow up for histopathology report collection and clinical scar inspection.
