I Suspect Lipoma in my Tummy Area

It shows up when I contract my stomach. Also this shows up when I try to get up from bed etc. Is this a lipoma?

This could be a lipoma or a hernia, among other things.  Speak to your surgeon, who will give you the diagnosis with an examination.

Keloid Scar from Lipoma Removal on Keloid-prone Skin?

I have keloid-prone skin. If I get a lipoma removed, will the scar most likely turn into a keloid?

Possible to get keloids from any incision into the dermis.  I would contact a surgeon who is familiar with both issues.  See the link below.

Removing Multiple Lipomas

I have several lipomas, and I would number them in the hundreds (the biggest being roughly 2" long). My trunk and arms are the worst affected. I am not over weight and very fit so the lipomas look more obvious (hideous). What is the best method for removing several lipomas?
A: Treatment of multiple lipomas

The only way to effectively remove these lipomas is to stage surgical resection of them.  All other treatments are not time proven.
