What is it?
Lipomas (buffalo humps) can occur anywhere on the body and can on occasions become rather large. They tend to feel rubbery and it may move around as you touch it. It is usually painless and harmless but can look unsightly.
Make a Booking Is Vaser Lipo right for you?What we do
Large lipomas (buffalo humps) can be treated by vaser liposuction. Through a small keyhole incision, the full tumour can be removed using vaser liposuction with minimal trauma and quick recovery. The procedure is all undertaken with a local anaesthetic. Anxious needle phobic individuals can be accommodated by conscious ’twilight’ sedation. This is safe but an additional cost will be incurred to cover the presence of a consultant anaesthetist.
