Lipomas are benign (non-cancerous) growths of fat cells just beneath the skin.
Soft, rubbery texture that is round or oval and usually movable. They are typically painless and slow-growing, varying in size.
While medically benign, lipomas can cause physical discomfort from pressure on nerves, mobility issues near joints, or aesthetic concerns.
You might consider removal if your lipoma:
Causes pain, tenderness, or discomfort, especially if it presses on nerves or tissues.
Interferes with movement, daily activities (like dressing), or becomes frequently irritated.
Is located in a cosmetically sensitive area and affects your confidence or causes anxiety.
Has noticeably increased in size, which may warrant a professional assessment to confirm its nature.

Find clear answers to common questions about lipoma diagnosis, treatment, and recovery.
While there are typical characteristics (lipomas are often softer and more mobile), a definitive diagnosis requires professional examination. The doctor will assess the growth during your consultation.
It’s very unlikely. Lipomas almost never resolve spontaneously. Professional removal is the definitive treatment if the growth is bothersome.
The procedure itself is performed under local anesthesia, so you won’t feel pain during the removal. You may feel the initial small injection. Post-procedure discomfort is typically mild and easily managed with over-the-counter pain relief like paracetamol.
We use meticulous Treatments techniques, placing incisions carefully (often in natural skin creases) and using fine sutures to minimise scarring. While any incision leaves a mark, most scars heal very well and fade significantly over 6-12 months. Scar care advice is provided.
Recurrence of the *same* lipoma is rare when completely removed by an experienced Doctor. However, new, unrelated lipomas can form elsewhere on the body over time.
Recovery depends on size and location. Many patients resume light activities immediately. More strenuous activities might be restricted for a short period. Initial wound healing takes 1-2 weeks. The doctor will provide specific guidance.
Yes, often multiple growths can be removed during the same procedure, depending on their number, size, location, and the estimated procedure time. This can be more convenient and cost-effective. Suitability will be assessed during your consultation.
Costs vary based on the size, location, number, and complexity of the growths. Please refer to the pricing guide above for indicative costs. A definitive, all-inclusive quote will be provided after your £95 consultation.
