Might getting a cyst on my face removed hurt a lot?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: In most cases, any lesion on the face that needs to be removed is first numbed with lidocaine. You should only feel a mild stinging sensation when this is injected in the area of the lesion. You should not feel the excision at all if it is done properly.
