    It sometimes inherited and present in one's genes. If it's not cause pain or not visible on exposed parts they are not necessary to be treated. However if the patient want to treat it for cosmetic reasons it can be excised. Lipomas are actually benign tumors of fat cells (very common in population). They can't be prevented as such if genetically determined.
