Ignition Lock Cylinder

After replacing the switch and shooting a little PTFE lube down the key slot, turning the key especially in cold weather is still really hard. Everything else works fine. I do not want to replace the cylinder and have to rekey or reprogram anything. My question is this... If I remove the lock cylinder, clean and lube it externally and then reinstall it, will I need to have the keys reprogrammed? Will the car even recognize that anything has been done to the cylinder?
