However benign tumors are large in size but not always life-threatening. Several factors, including genetics, diet, infection, stress, or injury, cause them. Genetics, environmental factors like pollution, a weak immune system, etc could cause malignant tumors.

If the biopsy reveals malignancy, the surgery must be followed by chemotherapy and radiation treatment. The doctor may suggest surgery for benign tumors if it is pressing on a facial nerve or interfering with the surrounding cells. The doctor may not suggest surgery for benign tumors that grow slowly and aren’t causing any other problems. Oftentimes, patients seek facial tumor surgery for cosmetic reasons.
