A Lipoma is a soft, fatty lump that forms under the skin, and his harmless - so can usually be left alone. If, however, it must be removed, it must be done privately as it is considered a Cosmetic Procedure. An injection of local anesthetic is given, then the skin over the Lipoma will be removed and the Lipoma cut out. The skin will then be stitched back together.
