Pilonidal Cyst Treatment in Studio City
For Studio City residents suffering with pilonidal disease, world-class care is about 20 minutes over Laurel Canyon — no long waits, no guesswork, just two of the nation’s leading pilonidal surgeons. Dr. Yosef Nasseri and Dr. Moshe Barnajian have perfected an outpatient flap-based procedure with a near-zero recurrence rate — so you can stop managing the pain and permanently end it.
Expert Pilonidal Care for Studio City Residents
From Ventura Boulevard to the Hills — and across Colfax Meadows, Fryman Canyon, and the Ventura Boulevard corridor — we’ve treated patients from every corner of Studio City (91604) who arrived exhausted by the cycle of painful flare-ups, drainage, and temporary fixes. The pain of pilonidal disease is real: a deep, throbbing pressure at the tailbone that makes sitting at a desk, driving, or working out feel impossible.
At the Pilonidal Institute, Studio City patients see two board-certified colorectal surgeons based at the Cedars-Sinai Medical Towers who treat pilonidal disease every week. Whether you need urgent relief from an infected abscess or a permanent surgical cure, you’ll get a clear plan — usually starting the same week you call.
Our signature flap-based technique removes the entire cyst and sinus tract, closes the wound with a cosmetically favorable midline scar, and carries a near-zero recurrence rate. The procedure is outpatient: most patients are home within hours and back to their Studio City routine quickly.
