4 deliverables in this treatment

  • Dermatologist consultation and lesion suitability assessment (MUDr. Bednář)
  • Local anaesthesia injection
  • Laser ablation of the cyst including complete capsule removal
  • Post-procedure healing guidance

Atheroma (sebaceous cyst) removal at Laserstudio is performed by MUDr. Bednář using laser energy to ablate the entire cyst — including its capsule — under local anaesthesia, without stitches and with minimal bleeding. The laser approach differs from surgical excision in that it vaporises the cyst wall tissue layer by layer, allowing precise access to and destruction of the complete capsule in a single session. Without capsule removal, atheromas typically recur; the laser technique achieves complete removal in a short procedure lasting several minutes, with only a scab forming at the site that resolves within days to weeks. A consultation with MUDr. Bednář is required before treatment to confirm suitability.

About this treatment

Atheroma removal at Laserstudio uses laser ablation to excise sebaceous cysts — benign epidermal inclusions filled with keratin and sebum that form when a follicle or sebaceous gland duct becomes blocked. The laser approach differs fundamentally from traditional surgical excision: rather than making a linear incision, reflecting tissue, and suturing closed, the laser vaporises the cyst wall and its contents through a small-entry aperture, ablating the…

The critical clinical objective in atheroma removal is complete capsule destruction. Atheromas have a defined fibrous capsule; if any portion survives removal, the cyst invariably recurs — often within months — necessitating a repeat procedure. The laser's precision allows MUDr. Bednář to identify and ablate the capsule circumferentially through a small access point, making complete single-session removal achievable even for cysts up to 2–3 cm in diameter.

The procedure is performed under local anaesthetic injection at the cyst site, ensuring the patient experiences no pain during the ablation phase. Bleeding is minimal due to the haemostatic effect of the laser energy. Post-procedure, a small scab forms at the entry point within 1–2 days and falls off naturally within 1–4 weeks. Patients are advised to keep the site dry and clean during healing and to avoid sun exposure on the area.
