Posted under Lipoma Removal q&a

Nerve damage and repair after lipoma removal from the forehead. Is it permanent?

kmzhou4
I loss the sensation from the top of my scale after moving a lipoma on top my eyebrow. The nerve affected is more likely the supra-orbital nerve. If I puss down on the bottom side of the incision site, I could feel the top of my scalp as if being scratched. So is my nerve damage permanent? I just has surgery in the last two days, so what should I do.
