Overview
Lipomas are soft, fatty lumps that grow under the skin. They are non-cancerous and usually painless, but can become bothersome if they grow large or press on nerves. Dr. Carol Ng performs surgical excision of lipomas to remove the fatty tissue and improve the appearance of the skin. The procedure is done under local anesthesia. Removal ensures the lipoma is gone for good and allows for a definitive diagnosis if needed.

Common Questions
Will it come back?
