Minor surgery refers to simple medical procedures performed under local anesthesia, usually without the need for an operating room or hospitalization. It is commonly used to treat skin issues or superficial lesions such as cysts, lipomas, ingrown toenails, abscesses, or lacerations.

The procedure begins with a medical assessment to clearly identify the issue. It is then performed under local anesthesia to ensure your comfort. Conducted in a clinical setting, the surgery is typically quick and straightforward. You’ll be able to return to your regular activities shortly after, with clear post-operative instructions to support optimal healing.

Most procedures involve minimal pain thanks to local anesthesia. You may feel slight pressure or unusual sensations during the intervention, but discomfort is usually very mild. Some minor soreness may persist afterward, but it is generally well managed with basic care and over-the-counter pain relief if needed.
