4 X4 Lipoma at the Back of my Neck

I have Kaiser insurance which will charge me over $12,000 under general anesthesia with a big cut at the back of my neck. I am so happy that I found Dr. Lowen which can get in done just under local anesthesia, a very small cut and the best things are it’s affordable compared to Kaiser and I don’t have to go under.

I am using a scar cream twice a day which I purchased in Dr. Lowen’s Office. Recovery was super easy, I was able to shower the same day of surgery. My daily activities continue just like nothing happened. I only took one pain killer on the surgery day after I got home and I was fine after that.

Thank you, Dr. Lowen!
