Fatty lipoma causes is best answered by a clinician who has examined you, but the sections below explain the procedures used, what each involves and when each is indicated. Even Hospitals performs lipoma removal surgery in bengaluru in Bengaluru at Race Course Road, JP Nagar and Hebbal. Nothing here replaces a consultation — it is meant to help you arrive at one with better questions.
Surgical excision removes the entire lipoma along with its surrounding capsule through a small incision over the lump. It is the definitive treatment for most lipomas, ensures the lowest recurrence, and allows the tissue to be sent for confirmation.
Liposuction-assisted removal uses a thin cannula passed through a tiny incision to suction out the fatty lipoma tissue. It leaves a much smaller scar and is ideal for soft, larger lipomas in cosmetically sensitive areas.

Lipomas are benign (non-cancerous) fatty lumps and are almost always harmless. Removal is usually for comfort, cosmetic, or diagnostic reasons. The removed tissue can be tested to confirm it is a simple lipoma.
Surgical excision removes the lipoma with its capsule and has the lowest recurrence, ideal for most and for firm or deep lumps. Liposuction leaves a smaller scar and suits soft, larger lipomas in visible areas. Your surgeon will recommend the best option.
Most lipoma removals are done under local anaesthesia, so you stay awake but feel no pain. Large or deep lipomas may need general anaesthesia. Mild soreness afterwards is easily managed with oral medication.
Surgical excision leaves a small linear scar over the lump, which fades over time. Liposuction-assisted removal leaves a much smaller, near-invisible scar. Surgeons close wounds carefully to keep scarring minimal.
Lipoma removal is a daycare procedure. Most patients go home the same day and return to routine within 1 - 3 days. Strenuous activity is usually fine within a week.
When the lipoma is fully excised with its capsule, recurrence is very low. With liposuction some capsule may remain, so there is a slightly higher chance of regrowth — your surgeon will advise based on your case.
A clinical examination is usually enough. An ultrasound may be done for larger or deep lumps, and routine blood tests if general anaesthesia is planned.
