Overview

Common risk factors in the development of lipoma are injury and genetic factors.

Risk Factors

The risk factors of lipoma include:

  • Injury: Sometimes lipomas are detected after an injury. Some doctors report minor injuries may be a trigger of the growth of a lipoma.
  • Genetic factors: Because lipomas also tend to run in families, genetic factors likely play a role in their development.
