Excision of Benign Tumors

Various benign tumors or masses can arise in the head and neck region ranging from superficial skin lesions such as cysts or skin tags to deeper more infiltrating masses like lipomas and branchial cleft cysts.  These tumors can often times be close to various critical vessels and nerves and as such require careful removal by top head and neck surgeons.  Dr. Jerome Vener and Dr. Alen Cohen at C/V Surgical Group in West Hills go to great lengths to formulate and execute an appropriate surgical plan to remove these tumors with minimal risk to any critical structures. They also always strive to make the smallest incision possible that can provide safe removal with minimal cosmetic deformit.
