Large Bump Under Eyebrow? (photo)

Hi mj,

You should consult with an oculoplastic surgeon.  Your bump is in the area where your lacrimal gland is located.  It will require specialized surgery to remove your bump.  Good luck and be well.

This is most likely a dermoid cyst.  it can be carefully removed through a blepharoplasty incision and sent for pathological evaluation by a plastic surgeon with craniofacial experience.  This cna be done in the office under local anesthesia or in the operating room depending on surgeon preference.  It must be excised entirely .  never attempt draining.

 

All the best,

This most likely can be removed without any difficulty. However, you should be prepared to answer questions such has it gotten larger, does it cause you any pain, any changes to your vision? While it is most likely a easy to remove skin cyst, ensure your doctor sends it to pathology for complete evaluation.
