Hi there! One month ago I got a lipoma removed from my forehead. After the procedure I was able to take off the bandages the next day and proceed with the healing process. As the photo appears my forehead was flat with stitches. after getting the stitches removed after a week my forehead started to form a hard bump over the same location of where the lipoma was removed. I went back to the Derm and he informed that he might have not removed it all. I went back in for another procedure and the doctor couldn't find any leftover lipoma, no fluid, nothing. He stitched it back up and once again as it healed a second time the same bump formed. He said the only way we can get to the bottom of it is to have a ultrasound done. I would be very appreciative of any advice or insight of if this has happened to anyone else! At this point I wish I would have never removed it because my lipoma was smaller than the bump on my forehead currently :(.
