Is it normal to have swelling 6 weeks after forehead lipoma removal? (photo)

Healing will continue for several months after removal of a lipoma on the forehead.  I think it is just a matter of time before you see the swelling decrease over the area of your surgery.  At 6 weeks after the surgery, I would not expect ice packs, warm compresses or anti-inflammatory medications to help.  

Thank you for sharing your question and photograph and I am sorry to hear of your prolonged swelling.  In the head and neck region healing tends to occur quickly and I do not see a significant amount of swelling in your photograph.  I would see your surgeon for an in-person evaluation but it may be a matter of just additional time being needed for complete resolution.  Hope this helps.

it is early stages but from your photo it is  difficult to see a significant swelling especially not knowing the extent of the original lump. there might be swelling that is not showing well in photo. ask the question to your doctor when you see them for a review.

Thank you for posting your question. 
Swelling sometime takes a little longer to go but unusual to stay that long. 
I would recommend to see your doctor.
