Lipomas are benign and harmless tumours, that rarely pose a
threat to health, but occasionally they may grow large enough to hinder
movement. In such cases, lipoma removal may be the chosen option, as well as
for purely cosmetic reasons if the growth becomes unsightly.
For those who want to resort to a lipoma removal procedure,
surgery is an option, but non-surgical procedures include steroid injections
and liposuction.
Steroid treatment involves injecting steroids directly into
the tumour causing shrinkage, but not total removal. The injections should be
administered monthly, and it may take weeks before a noticeable reduction in
lipoma size can be seen.
Liposuction comes under the auspices of cosmetic surgery, and is the better option if avoidance of scars is essential. The procedure is carried out under a local anaesthetic, by inserting a needle into the tumour and sucking out the fatty deposits. The recovery time is usually very quick and painless, but this technique can prove difficult for total removal of the tumour.
The third option, lipoma surgery, is normally the choice for removing larger tumours. Generally speaking, the procedure is carried out on an outpatient basis under local anaesthetic by making a small incision, removing the tissue and then stitching the wound. Although extremely rare, complications can arise such as infection, muscle damage or injury to blood vessels.
Lipoma removal cost depends on the numbers to be removed and the complexity of the procedure. It may be worth remembering that lipoma removal costs may not be covered by health insurance, especially if done for aesthetic reasons. In the majority of cases, lipomas grow slowly, are painless and do not need treatment, and the lipoma removal procedures discussed here are not always required.
However, as an alternative to these options, many sufferers have successfully followed this all natural lipoma treatment.
