Recommendation after Multiple Lipoma Surgery

For patients dealing with multiple lipomas, we offer a range of effective treatments tailored to provide comfort and effective removal. While lipomas may remain benign, removal is often recommended if they cause pain, discomfort, or aesthetic concerns. Here are the treatment options available at our Kozhikode center

Surgical Excision

The most common and reliable approach for multiple lipomas, surgical excision involves removing the lipomas through a small incision. This method has a low recurrence rate, and techniques like minimal excision extraction help reduce scarring. However, mild bruising and scarring may occur.

Liposuction

Liposuction is a less invasive option that removes fatty tissue through suction, particularly suitable for areas with multiple or large lipomas. A small incision is made, and a cannula is used to remove the fat, leaving minimal scarring.

Laser-Assisted Lipoma Removal

Laser treatment is an advanced method that uses high-intensity laser light to dissolve the fatty tissue of lipomas. A small incision is made, and a laser fiber is inserted to break down fat, which is then suctioned out. This technique can result in quicker recovery times and minimal scarring, making it ideal for cosmetic cases.

Laser-Assisted Lipoma Removal

The right liposuction technique for treating multiple lipomas depends on factors such as the location, size of lipomas, and any previous treatments. Here’s an overview of the main types we use

Tumescent Liposuction

In tumescent liposuction, a sterile saline solution containing a local anesthetic is injected, which helps in loosening the fat. This technique is widely used and can provide effective results with minimal discomfort.

Ultrasound-Assisted Liposuction (UAL)

This technique uses ultrasound energy to break down the fat cells before they are removed. UAL may be suitable for dense or fibrous areas, making it easier to remove lipomas from areas where tissue is tougher.

Laser-Assisted Liposuction (LAL)

LAL uses high-intensity laser light to liquefy the fat cells, allowing for smoother removal. The laser is inserted through a small incision to emulsify the fat, which is then suctioned out, resulting in minimal bruising and faster healing time.

Power-Assisted Liposuction (PAL)

In PAL, a cannula with rapid, vibrating movement is used to remove fat efficiently. This method is often chosen for its precision and can be particularly helpful in removing lipomas in hard-to-reach areas or in cases where other methods were previously used.

For patients preparing for multiple lipoma treatment, your surgeon will mark the areas to be treated and may take photographs for comparison. Each technique is chosen based on your goals, the location of lipomas, and previous treatments to ensure the best results.

Following your multiple lipoma treatment, you may experience mild pain, swelling, and bruising. Pain management, antibiotics, and compression garments will help with healing. You might be advised to take a few days off work and avoid intense physical activities for a few weeks to aid in recovery.

After multiple lipoma surgery, it typically takes 10 to 14 days for the incision sites to heal. During this period, we recommend avoiding any strenuous activities or intense exercise to allow proper recovery. Most patients are able to return to work the following day, depending on their comfort level. Stitches, if used, are usually removed within 7 to 10 days.
