Lipoma Surgery Treatment

Lipoma surgery is a minor surgical procedure performed to remove a lipoma, which is a benign (non-cancerous) fatty tumor that usually grows slowly under the skin. Lipomas are typically soft, movable, and painless, but they may become uncomfortable, cosmetically unappealing, or grow large enough to interfere with daily activities. The most common method for removal is surgical excision, where the surgeon makes a small incision over the lipoma and removes it completely. In some cases, liposuction may be used for larger or multiple lipomas to reduce scarring. The procedure is usually done under local anesthesia, making it quick and relatively simple. Post-surgery, patients may experience mild pain, swelling, or bruising, which typically resolves within a few days. Stitches are removed within one to two weeks, and normal activities can often be resumed shortly after. Complete removal generally prevents recurrence, and the procedure has a high success rate. Lipoma surgery is safe, effective, and provides both functional and cosmetic benefits. For Consultation Book You Appointment With Dr Vipul Nandu Today.
