What are the procedures for lipoma removal in Hyderabad?
There are several ways in which lipoma can be removed. However, before starting with the treatment, our doctor will review your medical history, conduct a physical examination, discuss your expectations, and recommend the best lipoma removal option.
If required, we may ask you to undergo an X-ray, CT scan, or MRI scan to understand the lipoma’s location and depth and whether it has blood vessels or is pressing against a nerve.
Surgery: A lipoma can be surgically removed. Making a small slit in the skin and then squeezing out the lipoma is one way. During the surgery, the patient is generally given a local anesthetic and can go home the same day.
To entirely remove larger lipomas, our doctor may need to make a larger incision.
Liposuction: Liposuction can also be used to eliminate certain lipomas. The doctor at our clinic will have to make an incision into the lump and introduce a thin, hollow tube through it. They will then suction the fat cells out of the body with the tube.
We send the lipoma material to a laboratory for analysis after surgery. Once the wound heals after surgery, you will mostly have a minor scar.
