The process is relatively simple, and fortunately, the prognosis is generally excellent.\n\n\n\n</p><p><strong>Causes of Facial Tumors\n\n\n\n<p>Tumors are either benign or malignant. Benign facial tumors can grow larger, but most are not particularly life-threatening or dangerous. Malignant growths, however, are cancerous and can metastasize or spread to other parts of the body. The exact cause of either type of tumor is often unknown, but certain factors have been linked to their growth.\n\n\n\n</p><p>Benign lumps, in many cases, relate to genetics, diet, stress, infection and local injury or trauma.\n\n\n\n</p><p>Cancerous growths are often believed to result from environmental toxins or chemical pollutants, but heredity or problems with the body\u2019s immune system may also play a part in causing some of these tumors.\n\n\n\n</p><p><strong>Treatment for Facial Tumors\n\n\n\n<p>Treatment for a facial tumor is determined based on whether the growth is benign or malignant. While certain symptoms, including pain or hemorrhaging near the lump, can indicate a strong possibility that a tumor is cancerous, the only way to know for sure is to perform a biopsy.\n\n\n\n</p><p>In this minimally invasive procedure, the surgeon will take a sample of the lump and send it to a lab to be examined by a pathologist. If the tumor is diagnosed as benign, further treatment may not be medically necessary unless it the lump is pressing on a facial nerve. Cancerous facial tumors often require surgery, along with chemotherapy or radiation treatment.\n\n\n\n</p><p><strong>Surgical Methods for Removing Facial Tumors\n\n\n\n<p>Depending upon the size, location and type of facial tumor, removal may involve the use of different surgical methods. The tumor tissues may be scraped away with a sharp surgical instrument in a process called curettage.\n\n\n\n</p><p>If the growth is deep under the skin, it may require surgical excision. In this procedure, the surgeon cuts into the skin, removes the tumor, and closes the wound with stitches.\n\n\n\n</p><p>Cryosurgery, in which the lump is frozen and killed with liquid nitrogen, may be appropriate for some facial tumors.\n\n\n\n</p><p>Although many tumors are benign, every growth has the potential to be cancerous. Consequently, a consultation with an experienced professional oral and maxillofacial surgeon is always advised, whenever a lump is detected.\n\n\n\n</p><p><strong><a href="%5C%22https:%5C/%5C/www.oralsurgeryofutah.com%5C/contact-us%5C/%5C%22" target='\"_blank\"' rel='\"noreferrer' noopener>Contact us today&nbsp;to schedule an examination with our expert team at Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery of Utah.
