You most likely have the diagnosis of familial lipomatosis (other family members will have the same problem). Lipomatosis is believed to be a dominant trait in which multiple lipomas are present. Most are discrete, encapsulated lipomas on the trunk and extremitiesAlthough this condition is benign, many patients concerned with cosmesis seek removal of individual tumors. Treatment can include simple excision, endoscopic removal, or liposuction if large. Liposuction, whether laser Liposuction or traditional will leave some of the lipoma cells behind which over time will probably recur though it may take years. The cost depends on if it is done in the office or surgery center, type of anesthesia, the time it takes to remove them, experience and qualifications of the surgeon, and geographic location.Find the most qualified plastic surgeon to take care of this problem.

Usually each small lipoma removal takes only 5-10 minutes,
