Multiple lipoma is a condition characterized by the development of multiple benign fatty tumors beneath the skin. These tumors, known as lipomas, typically feel soft and rubbery to the touch and may vary in size from a few millimeters to several centimeters. While single lipomas are relatively common, the presence of multiple lipomas can be indicative of underlying genetic or metabolic disorders.
Diagnosis
Diagnosing multiple lipoma usually involves a combination of clinical examination and imaging studies. During the examination, Dr. Sushrut Tated will assess the size, number, and location of the lipomas, as well as any associated symptoms or concerns. Imaging modalities such as ultrasound or MRI may be ordered to further evaluate the extent of the condition and rule out any other underlying abnormalities.
Treatment Options
Surgical Excision:
The primary treatment for multiple lipoma is surgical excision, which involves removing the tumors through small incisions in the skin. Dr. Sushrut Tated employs advanced surgical techniques to ensure complete removal of the lipomas while minimizing scarring and preserving cosmetic outcomes. In cases where multiple lipomas are widespread or deeply situated, multiple sessions of surgical excision may be required to address all affected areas.

Liposuction:
For smaller, superficial lipomas, liposuction may be a viable alternative to surgical excision. This minimally invasive technique involves using a thin tube (cannula) to suction out the fatty tissue, resulting in smaller incisions and faster recovery compared to traditional surgery. Liposuction is particularly effective for treating multiple lipomas in areas where the skin is more lax, such as the arms, thighs, or abdomen.

Observation
In some cases, especially if the lipomas are small, asymptomatic, and not causing any cosmetic concerns, a watch-and-wait approach may be recommended. Dr. Sushrut Tated will monitor the lipomas periodically and advise on further intervention if they show signs of growth or become symptomatic.
Recovery and Follow-Up
Following lipoma removal surgery or liposuction, patients can expect some swelling, bruising, and discomfort, which can be managed with pain medications and cold compresses. Dr. Sushrut Tated and our team will provide detailed post-operative instructions and schedule follow-up appointments to monitor healing progress and address any concerns.
