What is a Lipoma?
Lipoma is a well-defined benign growth of fat cells called Adipocytes under the skin. The cause is unknown. This slow growing mobile lump feels soft to touch and ranges from the size of a pea to a few centimetres across. Lipoma is quite common with about one in 100 people developing them. It is usually silent, however some patients want them removed as they can cause pain or disfigurement.
Removal of these Lipomas is by Surgical Excision. The procedure will be done under local anaesthetic and would last 30 minutes approximately. The skin needs to be incised and the lump flushed out. The wound will be closed with sutures and a dressing will be applied on. It will leave a linear scar that usually fade away over the years.
What is included : Once the patient goes ahead for surgery, the price will include the consultation, the surgical procedure, the post-operative care pack and the post treatment review if requested.
Stitches offer optimal healing and need to be removed 7-10 days after the procedure. Our team will assist you in arranging your suture removal as part of our aftercare treatment.

Absolute first class service from Dr Ouali and his entire team. He performed procedures for both me and my mother. The communication throughout the process was superb. Working in healthcare myself I can state that the level of care and professionalism was second to none. I would certainly recommend this practice for anyone looking for any kind of skin treatment. Many thanks.

I recently underwent an upper blepharoplasty with Dr. Braham Ouali. The results are outstanding and it’s only been 4 weeks since I had the procedure. I also received excellent care and support throughout my journey, which helped and reassured me immensely as I was so nervous. I am so happy I chose UKSkin. I will definitely be recommending Dr. Ouali and UKSkin in the future. (Google Review, Jan 2021)
