Sebaceous cysts are small, painless bumps that form under the skin. Sebaceous cysts are often confused with other lumps and bumps, such as pimples, boils, and warts.
Sebaceous cysts are typically round or oval in shape and measure between two and five centimetres in diameter. Sebaceous cysts are caused by the accumulation of sebum, an oily substance produced by the sebaceous glands to lubricate the skin. The cysts are most common in adults and typically occur on the face, neck, back, or chest.

What Treatment Does CoLaz Offer For Sebaceous Cysts?
Advanced electrolysis is a highly effective method for getting rid of sebaceous cysts. It takes a few minutes to treat the keratosis permanently, and from our experience, patients typically enjoy 100% success rates.
Your clinician will treat the blemish with electrolysis and, in some cases, can remove the content entirely during the treatment. The process usually only takes 30-45 minutes to complete. After treatment, a small scab will form, slough off naturally in a few days.
Please note a doctor’s note is required to confirm it is a sebaceous cyst before treatment.
