You would need an evaluation followed by surgical removal using small incision lipoma removal.Best, Dr. Karamanoukian#Realself100 Surgeon
Thank you for sharing your excellent question. The definite treatment for lipomas is a small in-office procedure to remove the lipoma and any surrounding scar tissue. See a plastic surgeon in your area in consultation, they can offer you the best treatment plan.
Unfortunately, the best and only treatment for lipoma is removal. This can be easily accomplished in the doctor's office with local anesthesia. Good luck!
I would recommend it be removed while it's small it's either going to stay the same or get bigger . I would recommend you find a board-certified plastic surgeon by the American Board of plastic surgery who has experience in lipoma removal . Best of luck Dr. Michael Gartner
In the U.S. lipomas that are not symptomatic are not covered by insurance.BestH karamanoukian MD FACS
