Lipoma all over the body; what is the best treatment?

Lipomas are benign fatty tumors that occur under the skin and less commonly within the muscle. They are associated with mild discomfort and a lump underneath the skin. It is always best to talk to an expert plastic surgeon to determine whether the lipoma is possibly a cyst or a tumor or hernia. We would have to remove the lipoma to be sure that it is not something else and we usually do this by sending it to a pathologist for evaluation. If a lipoma is painful, then an exam is needed to make sure it is not compressing on a nerve or whether the diagnosis is different. Aftercare for a lipoma includes gentle compression and Plato’s Scar Serum twice daily on the wound.

Hi. You can opt for Liposuction and Minimal incision technique for minimal scars. Please watch the video. It will answer the rest of your concerns in detail. 

Thank you for sharing your question.  You may be suffering from one of the multiple lipoma disorders, such as familial multiple lipomatosis or Dercum's disorder.  In these cases as with most lipomas, the only definitive treatment is surgical excision of the masses.  Hope this helps.
