A lipoma is a growth of fat cells encapsulated in a thin, fibrous sac usually found just below the skin. It can develop on any body part, including the torso, upper arms, armpits, and upper thighs. This growth may also occur on the back of the head or the neck.
Before considering surgery, Dr. Solomon evaluates different factors to determine if it is necessary. In many cases, lipomas can be addressed with conservative methods, such as steroid injections and observation. However, severe growths require more invasive procedures.
