What Is a Lipoma?
Lipomas are benign, non-cancerous growths made up of fat cells and fatty tissue. They usually feel soft, are painless, and develop slowly under the skin.
Lipomas can occur at any age and are commonly found on the neck, shoulders, arms, or torso.
Although many lipomas can be left untreated, some patients choose removal due to discomfort, cosmetic reasons, or concern about changes.
Lipoma Removal at Our Skin Surgery Clinic
Our skin surgery clinic near Leeds provides a safe and effective solution for lipoma removal and other skin concerns, including cysts, skin tags, moles, and other skin lesions.
Each lipoma removed is carefully assessed by an experienced surgeon or doctor to confirm an accurate diagnosis and appropriate management without complications.
When we assess your skin condition, we will explain your available treatment options and how the procedure will be performed.
The Lipoma Removal Procedure
The removal procedure is a minor surgical procedure usually performed under local anaesthetic, making it largely painless.
During the surgical excision, a small incision is made, and the lipoma is removed in full.
Most lipomas are only a few centimetres in size, allowing for a minimally invasive approach.
The operation is carried out in our modern clinic in Bradford by an experienced team, often supported by a practice nurse, ensuring patient comfort and safety throughout the process.
Healing, Aftercare and Recovery
After surgery, the wound is closed with sutures or stitches and covered with a protective dressing.
Mild swelling, bruising, or a slightly swollen feeling is normal. Our team provides clear aftercare advice to reduce the risk of infection, manage discomfort, and minimise scarring.
Healing is usually straightforward, with most patients returning to normal activities quickly. Follow-up may be arranged to check healing and remove stitches if required.
