Normally, 4-8 weeks.
Most can return to work in 2 days
The most common type of cyst on the neck is a sebaceous cyst. This type of cyst is limited to the skin and the soft tissue immediately underlying the skin. It will take about a week for the skin to heal but since the muscles are not involved, it should not be terribly painful.
