John L. Burns Jr., MD · Answer

Consultation with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon who can remove the cyst and send it off to pathology for histologic analysis is my suggestion.

Damon B. Chandler, MD · Answer

Hi and thanks for your question and photo. You need an in-person consult with an expert to discuss what to do about that growth. It is most likely a benign condition and would be considered a cosmetic procedure in my practice -- but I would certainly send the removed growth/cyst to a pathologist for proper analysis. You can review with your surgeon about the challenges specific to cysts or growths in the eyebrow area. 
Please seek out a board certified, fellowship trained Oculofacial Plastic Surgeon with extensive expertise in cosmetic mole and facial growth removal. Avoid doctors that are not experts in this precise form of plastic surgery.  I have removed thousands of moles from around people's eyelids and faces -- including the eyebrow -- throughout my career and each presents its own challenges. Many patients travel great distances to see me for my particular expertise in this area. We could certainly arrange a visit from Long Branch, NJ. 
Best of luck in your search!
