Best way to remove sebaceous cysts/glands on nipple? (photos)

July 1, 2016
Asked By:Nequam in United Kingdom, GB, London

As shown in the pictures attached, I suffer from prominent sebaceous cysts (on both nipples - left nipple shown). During a dermatologist's consultation around 6 weeks ago, the doctor used a hyfrecator on a couple of the bumps to gauge how the area would scar. Unfortunately, in addition to the scarring, the bump is returning. I am hoping for an alternative treatment option (or a more skilled hand using the same method) which can destroy the gland while causing minimal scarring.
