Lipomas are benign, soft fatty lumps that grow under the skin. While harmless, they can be uncomfortable or cosmetically bothersome. Lipoma targeted liposuction removes them through a fine cannula rather than a traditional open incision.
This technique is best suited to smaller or moderately sized lipomas, and typically leaves a far smaller scar than conventional excision, with a quicker return to normal activity.
A lipoma is a soft, benign lump of fat that grows beneath the skin, often on the arms, shoulders, neck or thighs. Lipoma targeted liposuction removes it through a fine cannula rather than a larger open incision.
The lipoma and surrounding area are assessed and marked
A small incision allows insertion of a fine suction cannula
Laser-assisted technique may be used to liquefy the fatty tissue
The lipoma is gently suctioned out through the cannula
The small incision is closed with dissolvable stitches
Dr. Sasikanth Maddu assesses the size, depth and location of each lipoma to decide whether targeted liposuction or traditional excision (see Multiple Lipomas) will give the best cosmetic outcome.
