Laser Lipoma Removal Surgery by Best Surgeon in Gurdaspur
👉 What is a Lipoma?
A lipoma is a soft, benign fatty lump that develops just beneath the skin. It is usually slow-growing, movable, and painless.
Lipomas commonly occur on:
- Neck
- Shoulder
- Back
- Arms
- Thighs
- Abdomen
Most lipomas are harmless, but treatment may be needed if the lump becomes painful, grows larger, or causes cosmetic concerns.
👉 What is Laser Lipoma Removal?
Laser Lipoma Removal is an advanced minimally invasive procedure in which a small incision is made and laser energy is used to break down or shrink the fatty tissue, followed by removal through a tiny opening.
This technique helps in:
- Smaller cuts
- Less bleeding
- Better cosmetic healing
- Minimal scarring
- Faster recovery
It is especially useful for small to medium-sized superficial lipomas.
👉 Who Needs Lipoma Removal?
Removal may be advised if the lipoma:
- Is increasing in size
- Causes pain or discomfort
- Restricts movement
- Causes cosmetic concern
- Is rubbing against clothes
- Needs confirmation that it is benign
- Is located on face, neck, or visible areas
