  • Posted to Lipoma Removed from Upper-back on 28 Feb 2010
    Thank you for sharing your photos. I went to a dermatologist last week for a consultation regarding a lipoma on my back, near my shoulder blade. It is situated exactly in the same location as yours. The dermatologist described a significant scar would remain. Your scar looks pretty good. Since I'm african-american, the doctor thinks there may be residual discoloration. I was wondering why he did not recommend liposuction. That's when I started searching the web and discovered this site. From reading the comments, it appears that only plastic surgeons use liposuction method. Also, all of the tissue is not removed by using liposuction and the tissue can't be sent for pathology.
