Lipoma removal is typically done through a minor surgical procedure under local anesthesia, where a small incision is made, and the lipoma is carefully removed. Our specialists ensure a safe, minimally invasive procedure with minimal scarring.
The procedure duration depends on the size and location of the lump or bump but generally takes 30-60 minutes. You’ll receive a personalized time estimate during your consultation.
The procedure is performed under local anesthesia, so patients feel little to no pain during treatment. Some discomfort or mild soreness may be experienced afterward, but this is temporary and manageable.
Most patients recover within a few days, with minimal restrictions on daily activities. You may need to avoid strenuous activities for a short period, depending on the treatment location and individual healing process.
Our team prioritizes safe, professional removal and minimizing risks. Minor side effects may include bruising, swelling, or mild scarring, which usually resolves quickly. Your consultant will discuss all potential risks before treatment.
