Lipoma Removal

Lipoma removal is a surgical procedure aimed at eliminating lipomas, which are benign (non-cancerous) fatty growths beneath the skin. These growths are typically soft, movable, and painless, and while they are generally harmless, removal may be desired for cosmetic reasons or if they cause discomfort or restrict movement. The skilled surgeons at St John & Elizabeth Hospital are adept at performing lipoma removal, offering patients a safe and effective solution with minimal risk of complications.

Also known as: fatty lump removal, soft tissue tumour removal

What is private Lipoma Removal?

Lipomas are common and can occur anywhere on the body, but they are most frequently found on the neck, shoulders, back, abdomen, arms, and thighs. They are slow-growing and usually harmless, but in rare cases, they can become painful or grow in sensitive areas, necessitating removal. At St John & Elizabeth Hospital, we use state-of-the-art techniques for lipoma removal, ensuring a smooth and comfortable patient experience from consultation through recovery.

How to pay for your treatment

If you’re… paying for yourself

Did you know you don’t need private medical insurance to come to St John & St Elizabeth Hospital? As a self-pay patient, you can access safe, outstanding quality health care at times to suit you.

For scans and tests, as well as to see most consultants, you’ll still need to be referred by a medical professional like your GP, but as a self-pay patient, the process is more straightforward. You won’t need authorisation from an insurance provider, and you’ll have greater choice of consultant and appointment times.

If you’re… insured

St John & St Elizabeth Hospital is approved by all major medical insurance companies. If you have a personal private health insurance policy, or your company provide it for you, you can use it to pay for your care from your initial consultation through to treatment, surgery and aftercare such as physiotherapy. Not all private health insurance plans cover the same things. It’s very important to check exactly what you are covered for with your insurance provider.
