I've been noticing these black dots on my chest and stomach for the past couple of months. They're not painful or itchy, but I'm curious and a bit worried about what they might be. I usually sleep without a shirt, so I'm wondering if that might be related. Could you help me understand what these might be and why they've appeared?

I have two sebaceous cysts on my face and I'm not sure what to do about them. What are the treatment options available, and if surgery is needed, how much would it cost? I'm a bit worried about scarring or complications.
Sebaceous cyst treatment options range from observation to surgical removal, depending on the cyst's size, location, and whether it's causing pain or inflammation. Surgical removal, if needed, can be done through various techniques, with costs varying. Scarring and potential complications should be discussed with your doctor.
