A member asked:
Had a sebaceous cyst removed from my face 3 weeks ago but under scar a lump has returned, is it another cyst?

I do not know: You would need an exam to determine if it is simply a scar formation under your skin or another cystic structure. Best wishes.

Possible: It could be a return but will have the specimen examined by a pathologist
