Excision of lipoma 2–5 cm – plastic surgery specialist physician

Excision of lipoma 2–5 cm, performed by a specialist physician in plastic surgery, represents a surgical procedure used for complete removal of lipoma, a benign formation composed of adipose tissue that develops under the skin.

Lipomas are frequently encountered and can appear in different areas of the body, such as back, shoulders, arms, abdomen or thighs. Usually they are painless, however they can increase in size or may cause aesthetic or mechanical discomfort.

The procedure consists of surgical excision of the lipoma, performed through a small incision at skin level, with complete removal of the formation. The intervention is performed under local anesthesia, so the patient does not experience pain during the procedure.

After lipoma excision, the wound is sutured, and the physician provides instructions regarding postoperative care and the healing process. In certain situations, the excised tissue may be sent for histopathological examination, to confirm the diagnosis.

Surgical excision of lipoma presents several advantages:

• complete removal of the formation
• reduced risk of recurrence
• safe and effective procedure
• optimal aesthetic result

The duration of the procedure depends on the size and location of the lipoma, but in general the intervention lasts 20–40 minutes.
