Answer: Lipoma removal From your photo, it appears to be a lipoma or cyst, both of which can be removed by a plastic surgeon. I would remove sooner before it gets any larger. These are benign growths and nothing to be worried about other than the cosmetic appearance. Cost is ~ $1,500. Best,

Answer: Removing a lump on the forehead There are several possibilities as to what type of lesion this might be on the forehead. Lipomas (fatty growths) and osteomas (bony growths) on the forehead are most common, but there are other possibilities as well. Either of these can be removed surgically, but it depends on the technique and the type of lesion to determine the cost. In some cases, health insurance might get involved as well, but often these types of lesions are solely a cosmetic issue. Be sure to see an expert for an-person exam and recommendations.All the best,
