Polyps and lipomas are common skin problems that may appear in different areas of the body. Polyps are small, soft, painless skin growths that often appear in the neck, underarms, or sensitive areas. A lipoma is a soft, non-cancerous fat mass that forms under the skin. At Afaq Medical Care Center in Ibri, we offer the service of removing these growths safely and easily using precise surgical or laser techniques, while maintaining the aesthetic shape of the skin and the complete comfort of the patient.
Procedure to remove polyps or lipoma
We remove skin growths by following precise and safe steps:
-
Initial examination: The nature of the growth (adenoids or lipids) and its size and location are evaluated to determine the most appropriate method of removal.
-
Local anesthesia: A simple local anesthetic is used to avoid any pain during the procedure.
-
Removal of the appendix or tumor:
-
Polyps: Remove by surgical incision or using laser or thermal cauterization as needed.
-
Lipoma: A small incision is made and the entire fat mass is removed.
-
-
Wound closure: In the case of lipomas, the wound is closed with cosmetic sutures to reduce scarring.
-
Post-procedure care: A sterile bandage is applied, and instructions are given to care for the area to avoid infections.
-
Follow-up: An appointment is scheduled for review and follow-up on wound healing and removal results.
