Ganglions are fluid-filled sacs (cyst) which appear mainly around the joints and tendons, usually the wrist and back of the foot.
They contain gelatinous colourless material and are asymptomatic but some people complain of irritation and dull pain together with weakness in the affected joint and tendon. Ganglions are treated by surgical excision under local anaesthesia.
At our cosmetic surgery clinic, Doctors Makeover, we carry out this procedure as a Day Case Surgery under local anaesthesia, this means it is safer and you are able to walk away straight after the procedure. The whole operation should take less than an hour in duration.
There may be some discomfort, bruising and swelling at the site of the operation and we will supply you with a relatively comprehensive post-operative care plan and follow-up on the day of the operation. You need to be aware of the risks, if any, and the surgeon will discuss them at the consultation.
There is the opportunity for 0% financial payment arrangement.
