A word from Dr. Naresh

Not every surgical problem needs a hospital stay. Ingrown nails, small cysts, abscesses and cuts can usually be treated in a short visit under local anaesthesia.

My aim is to make these procedures quick, comfortable and clearly explained, so you're back to your day with simple instructions and a clear follow-up plan.

Everything you need to know about minor surgical procedures, in one place.

1Are you an ideal candidate for minor surgical procedures?

Suitability is decided at an in-person examination, with a review of your history and reports.

Common minor procedures

  • Ingrown toenail removal
  • Skin tags, warts and corns
  • Small lipomas and cysts
  • Removing a foreign body, such as a splinter or glass
  • Biopsy of a skin lesion

When to wait or plan carefully

  • An infection that needs settling first
  • Blood thinners that need a plan before the procedure
  • Uncontrolled diabetes, which slows healing

    The doctor examines the area and confirms the plan with you.

  2. 2
