    Frequently asked questions

    How much does private cyst or lipoma removal cost?

    Private cyst or lipoma removal commonly costs GBP300-GBP900+, depending on size, location, complexity, clinician and histology.

    Can I get a cyst or lipoma removed on the NHS?

    Sometimes, but cosmetic or non-problematic lumps may not be funded. Pain, infection, rapid change or diagnostic concern changes the pathway.

    Is histology included?

    Sometimes. Ask whether lab analysis is included, especially where diagnosis needs confirmation.
