A lipoma is a type of benign skin lump that is composed of fatty tissues. These fatty lumps are located between the skin and the underlying muscle layer. Normally, these lumps don’t cause any harm and grow at a very gradual rate. However, in some cases, a lipoma may be present right above the blood vessels and when it grows, the blood vessels get compressed. Due to this, lipomas may cause pain and discomfort.
If you have a lipoma, either painful or painless, and wish to get rid of it, get in touch with Medease Health for lipoma removal surgery in Delhi.

Lipoma Removal surgery involves the excision of benign fatty deposits known as lipomas from beneath the skin through incisions. Lipomas are harmless lumps of fat cells that remain symptomless and pose no health risks.
Positioned between the skin and underlying muscle tissue, they can be moved easily with pressure. Common sites for lipomas include the neck, shoulders, back, abdomen, arms, and thighs.
The skin is the largest external and primary protective organ of the body. It is made up of three layers of tissues. The upper layer is the epidermis, the layer below the epidermis is the dermis, and the third layer is the subcutaneous tissue.
The epidermis provides a waterproof barrier and contributes to skin tone.
The dermis contains connective tissue, hair follicles, blood vessels, lymphatic vessels, and sweat glands.
The subcutaneous tissue (hypodermis) comprises fat and connective tissue.
Protection: The skin is a barrier against microorganisms, ultraviolet light, and mechanical damage, safeguarding the body.
Sensation: It serves as the primary organ for sensory perception, enabling the detection of pain, temperature, touch, and deep pressure, vital for experiencing and responding to the environment.
Endocrine Activity: Through biochemical processes, the skin produces Vitamin D, crucial for calcium absorption and normal bone metabolism, contributing to overall health.
Immunity: It plays a role in immune system function by developing immunity against pathogens and strengthening the body’s defence mechanisms.
Regulation of Temperature: The skin helps regulate body temperature by managing heat retention or dissipation, contributing to thermal comfort and overall homeostasis.
