Excision of subcutaneous formations (lipoma)
Excision of lipoma 2–5 cm, performed by senior dermatologist, is a surgical procedure used for complete removal of lipoma, a benign formation composed of adipose tissue. Lipomas appear frequently under the skin and can be localized in various areas of the body, such as back, shoulders, arms, abdomen, or thighs.
Although lipoma is generally a benign and painless formation, its removal may be recommended when it increases in size, causes discomfort, becomes painful, or creates aesthetic dissatisfaction.
The procedure consists of complete surgical excision of the lipoma, performed in the medical office or under minor surgery conditions. The intervention is performed under local anesthesia, so the patient does not experience pain during the procedure.
After lipoma removal, the wound is sutured, and the physician provides recommendations regarding postprocedural care and healing period. In some cases, the excised tissue may be sent for histopathological examination, to confirm the diagnosis.
Surgical excision of lipoma offers multiple advantages:
- complete removal of the formation
- reduced risk of recurrence
- safe and effective procedure
- good aesthetic result after healing
The duration of the procedure depends on the size and location of the lipoma, but generally the intervention lasts 20–40 minutes.
