I have over a thousand lipomas with the biggest one around 35 cm and I really need surgery to remove them but money's tight. I do have health insurance will it cover the cost of lipoma removal surgery?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Lipoma removal cost is covered by health insurance when the surgery is performed for medical reasons. But many patients undergo lipoma surgery for cosmetic reasons, due to which health insurance may not cover the treatment cost.

I'm noticing that my nose isn't straight; it's tilted to the left side. I'm really curious if there's a way to straighten it out. Could you tell me what procedures might be available for this? And do those procedures leave scars or have any complications I should be aware of? Also, I'm trying to figure out how much these procedures might cost.

I'm a sports person and a bodybuilder, and I've been dealing with puffy nipples for the past couple of years. It's making me really self-conscious, especially when wearing t-shirts. I'm worried it might be gynecomastia. I'm curious about what treatments are available. Are there any medications to help reduce this in men, or would surgery be necessary? Also, if surgery is needed, what might the cost be? I'm really hoping for some guidance here.
