Lipoma Removal Through Liposuction - New York, NY

I met with Dr. Khorasani and he told me the options for my large 8cm x 10cm lipoma on my upper left back (bra area) was either an incision or liposuction. Since I am in my twenties and did not want the large scar on my back (the back scars easily) I opted for the liposuction option. While much more expensive, it was close to painless and totally worth it. I was back to work the following morning with only extra strength Tylenol and a prescription to prevent infection. I had to wear a corset type medical wrap for a week to ensure proper healing since mine was so large,but again it was totally worth it. Two weeks lateri can see and feel a difference. No scar. Completely removed and I don't ever have to explain the nasty lipoma story to people asking about a scar.

Great review?

Thanks for posting your experience, Nengel. I'm glad everything went well for you. Is this the only lipoma you've had to deal with?

Yes it is.
