I have scars with a tattoo over them on my forearm and want to get rid of both. A doctor told me laser tattoo removal won't fix the scars would plastic surgery work for this? I'm worried about how effective it'll be and if it's the right option.

I've noticed these lipomas under my skin some are as big as small lemons and others like groundnuts. They're bothering me, and I'm thinking about getting them removed surgically. What kind of specialist should I see for this, and what should I expect from the procedure?
