Cyst on my face,,,under my lip

about 9 months ago i got cyst in my skin under my lips,,,I went to dermatologist and she burnt it for me,,but it didn't go away,,,so idid same treatment,,this time she open more space around the cyst to make sure its root completely is burnt,,,but so far still is there and now i have a ugly scar + the cyst is there.sometimes
i feel little pain on it .
Is there any way to get rid of it?

Hello,
Generally no treatment is required for a cyst but they become painful then it means they are infected or if they are unsightly, Then surgical excision by traditional wide excision, minimal excision, and punch biopsy excision may be required. This way the chances of recurrence are less. Please discuss these treatment options with your dermatologist.
I hope it helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing or if you have any additional doubts. Kind regards.
