A lipoma is a common type of fatty tumor, often referred to as a scalp lump. It is a benign (non-cancerous) growth made up of fatty tissue that develops when fat cells grow abnormally beneath the skin. Lipomas can appear anywhere on the body, and some individuals may experience multiple occurrences. While typically harmless, lipomas can sometimes be mistaken for other masses, such as lymph nodes, cysts, or tumors.
If you’re curious about how lipomas are removed, there are several ways to do it, depending on its size, location, and your preferences. These include:
Excision Surgery: The most common method, involving a small incision to completely remove the lipoma, effectively preventing recurrence.
Minimal Excision Extraction: A less invasive option with a smaller incision, allowing for quicker recovery and less scarring.
Endoscopic Removal: Uses an endoscope to guide the removal through a tiny incision, ensuring precision and minimal disruption to surrounding tissues.
Laser-Assisted Removal: A laser is used to make the incision and remove the lipoma, reducing bleeding and promoting faster healing.
Not sure which option is right for you? Our team will assist you in selecting the most suitable option for your specific needs.
Surgical removal remains the most reliable way to fully treat a lipoma. While some practitioners might suggest alternatives like liposuction or fat-dissolving injections, these methods only remove part of the mass, allowing the remaining tissue to regrow. Liposuction or injections won’t guarantee long-term results, which is why we recommend surgery for a complete, lasting solution.
As the name suggests, lipoma tumor removal surgery is a procedure to remove lipomas —benign growths of fatty tissue that form beneath the skin. Although lipomas are non-cancerous and generally harmless, they can sometimes cause cosmetic concerns or discomfort.
For small to medium-sized lipomas, especially in the head and neck areas, surgery is typically performed under local anesthesia, numbing the area to ensure a pain-free procedure. For larger lipomas, particularly those in the neck and shoulder regions, general anesthesia or IV sedation may be recommended to ensure greater comfort and safety during the surgery.
During the procedure, a small, careful incision is made right over the lipoma, allowing Dr. Patil to gently remove the fatty tissue with great precision while minimising any impact on the surrounding areas. Once the lipoma is removed, the incision is gently closed with stitches. At Seraphic Aesthetics, we take every step to ensure minimal scarring, helping to support a smooth and comfortable recovery.
Some soreness and mild scarring are normal after surgery, but the discomfort is typically minimal and can be easily managed with prescribed pain medications. Most patients recover quickly and are able to return to their daily activities without much downtime.
The recovery period usually takes about 2 to 3 weeks. Following our team's instructions and taking the necessary precautions will help you heal smoothly and quickly.
Here are some of the many benefits you can experience after the surgery:
Improved Appearance: Removes visible lumps for a smoother skin surface
Pain Relief: Eliminates discomfort or tenderness caused by the lipoma
Prevents Growth: Stops the lipoma from expanding further
Enhanced Mobility: Removes obstructive lipomas that limit movement
Quick Recovery: Minimal downtime, allowing you to return to daily activities
Boosts Confidence: Restores self-esteem by addressing unsightly lumps

In most cases, lipomas do not recur after complete removal. However, there is a rare chance of recurrence, especially if any part of the lipoma is left behind. Regular follow-ups with your doctor can help monitor for any signs of recurrence.
