They can vary in terms of their number, size and location.
Often lipomas are solitary lesions, however they can be multiple and some people can have hundreds of lipomas.
Smaller ones may go unnoticed and it is only when they get larger that the can become a nuisance. They do not normally grow particularly large and are most commonly a few centimetres in diameter.
Lipomas can occur anywhere on the body. This is one of the main distinctions between lipomas and skin cysts. Skin cysts tend to occur just underneath the skin whereas lipomas can be deeper than this. In fact lipomas can occur quite deep and are sometimes beneath muscle and so can be difficult to remove. This is why it may be necessary to get a scan prior to lipoma removal for lipomas in certain locations.
