Ganglion Aspiration / Injection
Aspiration or steroid injection for ganglion cysts — a non-surgical option.
Ganglion cysts are fluid-filled lumps that commonly develop around joints and tendons, particularly at the wrist. Aspiration (draining the fluid) or steroid injection can reduce the cyst without surgery, though recurrence is possible.
All treatments begin with a medical assessment
Every patient is seen by our onsite doctor partner, Aega Health, before any procedure. This 15-minute assessment (£150) includes full clinical assessment, diagnosis, suitability review, and consent, ensuring your care is safe and tailored to you.
