I've noticed a soft, painless lump on my forehead that's about 1.5 cm my doctor said it's a lipoma. It doesn't bother me much but I'm curious about removal options and what the surgery might cost

Most lipomas are removed surgically by cutting them out. Lipomas typically don't return once they're removed.

The surgery wound from my perianal pus removal a month ago hasn't fully healed yet and there's a small bump on one side - could that be fat? I attached a picture, how much longer might it take to heal completely and what can I do to help it heal faster so I can get back to normal
Bump may be granulation or fat—keep clean, sitz baths, and recheck with surgeon if healing doesn’t progress.
