Hello,

I can understand your concern. What you are referring to as pimple might be a cyst under the skin. Cyst is a fluid filled cavity which is lined by layer of cells. It never pains unless it is infected while pimples are painful.

If the cyst is not removed along with its lining, then there are chances of recurrence. That is why your doctor has suggested a small surgical procedure which will remove the cyst along with its lining.

I would advise you to go for the surgery. If the cyst will increase in size or gets infected any time, then you will have to go for surgery anyways. Then why not going for it now? The small scar can be treated with laser by the cosmetic surgeon if it bothers you aesthetically.

I hope this information helps you. Thank you for choosing HealthcareMagic. Take care.

Best,
Dr. Viraj Shah
