Patient reviews for Doctors For Lipoma Surgery

Frequently Asked Questions

When do lipomas cause pain?

Lipomas usually don’t cause any pain or discomfort. However, in some cases, the lump may grow large and may start compressing against the nerves and muscles underneath, which may cause pain or discomfort. A specific type of lipoma, i.e., angiolipoma, is also known to cause pain because it has vasculature, i.e., the fat tissues grow around the nerves.

What size of lipoma should be removed?

Typically, lipoma removal is recommended when the lump grows around 2 cm in diameter or larger. A lump smaller than this can be left untreated for some time. However, if a lump’s size is larger than 5 cm, the doctor usually advises surgical removal on an urgent basis due to its malignancy potential.

Can lipomas turn cancerous?

No, lipomas don’t turn into cancer. They are benign tumors. However, there is a type of cancerous fatty tumor called liposarcoma that initially looks like a lipoma.

How do you remove lipoma naturally?

Some common natural remedies tried by people to remove or reduce lipomas include the following:

  • Use herbal ointments, such as neem oil and flaxseed oil.
  • Try creating a mixture of chickweed with neem or flaxseed oil.
  • Make a paste of turmeric and neem oil and apply it directly over the lump.
  • Make dietary changes in your life and avoid foods that have a high content of unhealthy fats.

You should understand that these natural remedies may or may not work for you.

Which doctor to consult for lipoma?

You can choose to consult either a plastic/cosmetic surgeon or a dermatologist for lipoma removal. As a first line of treatment, you can consult a dermatologist who can administer steroid injections to reduce the lipomas. If the injections are not considered the ideal option, the dermatologist will refer you to a specialist, most likely a plastic or cosmetic surgeon, who can help with effective lipoma removal.

How much does multiple lipoma removal cost?

If you have multiple lipomas, the removal may cost around Rs. 50,000 to Rs. 1,50,000, depending on their location, size, and numbers. The cost may vary for each patient depending on the severity of the condition.

Which type of anesthesia is used for lipoma surgery?

Typically, local anesthesia is used for lipoma removal. However, in some cases, if local anesthesia is not suitable for the patient, general anesthesia may be used.

How long does lipoma surgery take?

The average duration of lipoma surgery is around 1 to 2 hours. Typically, if only one lump is being removed, the surgery may only take 40 to 60 minutes, but for multiple lipomas, the surgery duration will increase.

Does insurance cover lipoma removal?

Yes, health insurance indeed covers lipoma removal procedures. In most cases, lipoma removal is deemed necessary because leaving it untreated means that, in some cases, a cancerous form of a fatty lump(liposarcoma) may go undiagnosed, which can be life-threatening for the individual. Thus, most insurance providers generally approve coverage for lipoma treatment.

How to remove a lipoma yourself?

You should never try to remove a lipoma yourself, as it can be dangerous. There are many risks associated with the home removal of lipomas, including an unsterile environment, pain, discomfort, risk of infection, improper removal, excessive bleeding, scarring, etc. You should always rely on an expert for lipoma removal.

How to naturally prevent lipoma?

As lipoma’s exact cause isn’t known, it is quite difficult to prevent them from forming. In most cases, lipomas are inherited. The best thing you can do is live a healthy and active life and limit the intake of alcohol to reduce the risk of Madelung’s disease.

Can a lipoma develop in breasts?

Yes, lipomas can develop in one or both breasts. It may or may not cause pain and other symptoms.
